I have just got a letter from my wife's lawyer. She's not going to pay spousal maintenance as she doesn't have any money left. After she left her car developed problems and she had to sell it, that's why she needs to pay for a leased car at 600 a month. Oh, and she needs osteopathic treatment because she has a neck problem because of the stress of the relationship breaking down - did she not break it down?
Furthermore, she has to contribute to the cleaner as her husband has a cleaner - so if he already had one, why does she need to pay for her when he already was then? Oh and the gardener also, of course. She hasn't been able to afford beauty treatments before while living with me, so she's having them now - even though she used to have over 700 spare each month - she chose not to have them and never mentioned that she wanted any. And holidays are essential as she works full-time and doesn't get chance to wind down.
She also wants to know what I've done to find a cheaper place to live and claims that I am unwilling to work! Well that was why she didn't want to supply a statement for my disability claim then. How can she say this knowing full well every tiny intimate detail about my condition? how?
She has emptied both bank accounts and closed one and even somehow got my signature on the paperwork - I have never seen that document and didn't even remember we had that account. If I signed something to close and account and transfer 13,500 to another account (June 2020), I think I would have wanted to know why!
When I ask "What have I done to deserve being treated in this way" and people say I've done "Nothing", then why, oh why, is she treating me like this. This is the worst anybody has treated be before and I thought that she loved me all these years.......I am truly gobsmacked!!
P.S. Who told me that "it's going to get worse" - you were right!
