I asked my lawyer to tell me how long I will be required to do it for.
Isn't that in the divorce agreement? Did you read it?

What is the financial component...assets or spousal support? Sounds like child support isn't a factor.

Why do you think she's going to get married? Sounds like a leap.

I'm a little confused by this earlier comment...do you have biological children together, or are they your step children?[/quote] I read it a while ago, a long while ago. But, when I talked to my lawyer, I just asked her to verify. We are both positive it was until she remarried and possibly once on Medicaire. Its Health Insurance support. Not much, just enough to help. Marriage, I just have a gut instinct this guy is going to stick around. She wont just introduce a random person to her Dad, which she did. My gut instinct, he is highly educated, well to do, and intellect and they are both goal oriented business types. I think she wants that security going forward. Now, these are all speculations. But, she has been immersed in types like this for several years. Her EA I found out about was a Harvard grad, Doctorate, had property assets all over the USA. Not saying she is a gold digger, but, I am sure she is looking at a financially secure husband.. I just know her.. The girls are my step children.. They call me Steve/and Dad.

Don't get ahead of yourself - your mind is tormenting you here. Her and the EA didn't last, right? Also remember, it's not all on her - this new guy as a say too. Try not to worry about their future.

So do you have any biological children together, or is it just the step children? And what's the situation with the step children's father? Has he been in the picture?

I tend to overthink.. I am trying to come up with phrases I can write down, to keep me focused daily. This forum has a wealth of great phrases and such. They are both my step children. Biological father was given many many opportunities' to be engaged with the kids. He just let it go. Last time my youngest saw him, she drove 1 1/2 to see him. She said it was like she was a guest, not a daughter. I think it was closure for her.. She was 20 when this happened. Her Mother and I never discouraged her, or her older sister to see him. He just has his own life and several kids with a few other marriages.. He is just not a good person, in my eyes. He lost an opportunity in life to have two daughters. I gained two daughters.. As my ex stated recently, when they get married I will walk them down the isle.
