One other thing I wanted to mention was that he admitted that he is struggling pretty badly financially. I know this is a result of all his spending that comes along with the MLC. He has maxed out 2 credit cards and another one is almost maxed as well. His rent is my mortgage payment, and his truck payment is ridiculously high..but he just HAD to have that truck after he was kicked out.

He owns his own business and is supposed to pay taxes quarterly. He only paid a small portion of taxes for 2016. When we filed taxes in 2106 (for 2015) we did it jointly but the tax person estimated how much each of us would be getting back because she knew we were separating. The total amount went into my bank account.

I received a small portion of the return. H got back approximately 10K. He says he was going to use that money for his 2016 taxes. He asked me last night what happened with the tax return money and I told him it was in the bank. He asked me if there was any way he could get that money. Since he only paid a small portion for 2016 he needs to pay the rest that he owes before he can file in 2017, and he can only do that if he is given the money from 2015.

Now.....the hurt spouse, the betrayed spouse, the one who wants him to suffer says "don't give him that money because he is only going to use it to pay off all his bills he racked up during this MLC and then rack up more bills" and "this is the man who told you that he didn't love you, and says he wants nothing to do with you, and doesn't ever want to see you or the dogs again, and blamed you for the A" and "he knew he was going to have to pay taxes for 2016, he should have accounted for that"

What to do...... crazy confused
