sorry you find yourself here MLC is baffling..It is not about you though it is him
His texting about money--I would either ignore or simply state that the matter has to be handled legally and fairly
The MLCer may want things his way...they no longer care about the LBS or the children They are in a crises it is real sometimes fueled worse by addiction and unresolved childhood issues they run from their pain and all resposibility IT is not your fault nor can you fix him or get thru to him
I got a free consultation with a very good L He made me aware of everything I was entitled to..I did this for information so I knew if it came to that I didn't file eventually XH did..It took him about 2 years to file
so I would encourage any LBS to seek legal advice so you are prepared just in case
do not agree to anything the MLcer would want to call the shots and financially not pay at all I know a gal who trusted her XH in this and signed an agreement written by him where she agreed to not take anything she lost it all and her house as well
when It comes to D and property and alimony it changes from a Marriage to a business deal Do what is best for you and your S MLC takes a long time and sometimes they never return to normal
all the best peace
