This very typical behavior of someone in MLC. So, keep your eyes and ears open at all times.

Keep the focus on you and little one...and definitely watch your finances, as well as checking in w/your lawyer Monday morning.


I would completely agree with this. The amount of times my H has followed this rule of thumb is beyond counting as it’s nearly always been the case. Sometimes He has been really nice and helpful and just when I’ve started to think it could be genuine (normally after a couple of weeks) I’ve been hit with something nasty. Just be very careful and like Job said check in with your Lawyer ASAP. And keep smiling it will get better eventually .
