Divorce and Acceptance part 3

[Pax_luv]

One- I’m so grateful for you right now. You have no idea.

I think my lawyer gets it. I shared with him my concerns from the get go and he always said “the court assumes equal partnership” kind of regardless of what ex did.

I’m going to raise your points with him.

I’m in a community property state so I hope that helps with all this.

And yeah ex has licenses.

I never thought I was going to have to be adversarial in this. I really thought I would have “right” on my side as long as as I walked through with integrity and honesty (while continuing to protect myself legally, of course)

It’s juat really scary right now. I’ve worked non-stop since I was 15. The fear of being 35 and having nothing, zero, nada to show for it freaks me out. I’m a contributer and I was building a life with this person. He drained our savings, wrote fraudulent checks in my name, and the list goes on. Hell, he even wanted me to declare fake bankruptcy with him when he was hiding money from another issue. I was like hell no!


It’s just the realization that all I was, was a disposable accessory to him. And our marriage was a sham. He never ever meant for us to build this together.
