Thanks, MarvinF. I agree, he doesn't "seem" to be in a position to help me out, but again, I have no idea what his new salary is.

He is the one who drafted the separation agreement in the first place in November 2016. He had been paying me monthly for two months prior to that and as soon as he had his lawyer draft the official agreement, which H signed (after paying his lawyer several thousand dollars to draft it), he stopped paying me.

Then over the first half of 2017, he kept swearing he intended to pay me and would never not pay me, but he kept avoiding me in all kinds of crazy ways to keep me from being able to get a document that was signed and initialed properly to be filed with the court in my new state.

And when I texted him the exact date I'd be filing for D in my new state, he didn't even respond.

Then I got diagnosed with cancer, had to move to my home state and couldn't afford to have everything redone to yet another state's laws.

I guess he heard that I have cancer and saw it as a way for him to buy time and get out of doing anything.

I just don't understand the way he has stopped talking to me completely. And then finding out he actually has a new phone number was like another bomb drop. It really stung.

I know he has a lot of debt that he isn't paying. And when he first moved, he took a huge pay cut from what he was making when we were together. And he moved to a state where salaries are a lot lower than where we lived when we were married. I all along, even though he kept telling me he'll pay me X per month and at one point even said he could file in his new state and he wouldn't have to pay me nothing because of the laws there, "But I would never do that to you," I have thought he's said it but kept avoiding paying me and actually moving things forward because he's too embarrassed to admit he can't afford to. But I'm also thinking that even if he could afford to pay me something, he doesn't want to be any worse off financially and he just doesn't want to pay anything at all and so he decided to just vanish.

I guess my feeling is that he's living his new life and not having to part with a dime so it's so much easier for him to erase me, settle into his new life without consequences and never look back.
