    Does "The Truth Always Come Out"?

    I have tried, almost without exception, to do just that. I have been 'grilled' by her, and have said little to nothing. I know it drives her crazy. In my humble opinion, nothing is her business. She keeps aking what do I have on her, and what do I want as far as a settlement. I tell her...

    Does "The Truth Always Come Out"?

    Quick question...she has thrown me a curve ball. She is not willing to do the shared parenting as I thought. So, now I'm back to square one. She still is bold faced denying the affair...big suprise. She is threatening to go after my medical records and therapist notes...I wasa pretty sure that...

    Does "The Truth Always Come Out"?

    Had our first hearing this week...and got blown away...there is some evidence that she would agree to a shared parenting plan...never thought I would see that coming. It is simply an answer to prayer. I guess we will wait on their proposal, and see where that leads, and then hopefully, I will be...

    MKD, Thanks for the encouragement. I really appreciate it. I have been struggling lately with it all, wondering when it will all come out. I havge also been hit with another 'few' dollars for support, while she continues to spend and lie. The court stuff will begin in the next few days, and I...

    Is inappropriate contentography cheating????

    Something I heard once came to my mind while reading this thread. I heard once that life and the images we see are a series of snapshots. What we see is there, in our memory, and we cannot 'delete' those pictures. Some of the 'pictures' that we have seen are great, we look on them with great...

    So glad to know I'm not a freak...(DivorceCare class)

    My class this week was about the kids, and how they react and deal with divorce and separation. It was sad, really. Things you would never think about, or reactions they might have. It was also helpful, in ways to deal with the questions they might have, and how to deal with the mom, and how she...

    Just a vent

    I dont know , Im only sure that the Lord has great plans for me , and I will continue my walk with Him and wait on His promises and timing . When it seems that everythiong in life is confusing, and you don't know what to expect next, all you can do is trust in Him. If you seek after God, and...

    Does "The Truth Always Come Out"?

    Cancelled checks, ATM receipts where I deposited it in her account, a calendar where I detailed the dates I deposited the money, and now her bank statements that show the deposits. Plus, there was that rebate that we all got...I took none of it, so it is really about $8000.

    Does "The Truth Always Come Out"?

    I hope the truth comes out. I was just going over the court ordered documents that she had to submit, and again, there is a blatant lie about the amount of money that I provided for her and the kids prior to any court orders. The difference is between about $1200 and about $6700. The $6700 is...

    So glad to know I'm not a freak...(DivorceCare class)

    This week was a very interesting discussion in our class. We discussed finances. As you could see in my other thread about cutting costs, it was a lot of things. It was informative, depressing, and infuriating. The fact that my expenses have been cut so drastically (about 3/4 of what I used to...

    How do you cut costs?

    Already living with the folks, so that cost is cut. I did call my cell phone provider, and tey discovered that there was some hidden costs that I didn't even know was there, and I got them refunded. I have talked with some of my debtors, and worked out payment arrangements, however, that as...

    How do you cut costs?

    Good idea on the coupons and such...I completely forgot about that. Another one is the value menu at the restaurants. Nuggets and fries for the kids, and drinks at the house. I read that while the economy slips, video game purchases are increasing...good, cheap entertainment, especially for the...

    How do you cut costs?

    I like he phone idea. Skype, I've heard is good. There is also a product called MagicJack. It hooks into the USB on a computer, and you just plug a regular phone into it. I think it cost $40 for the first year, then $20 after. No monthly fee or anything. Supposedly it has caller id, voicemail...

    How do you cut costs?

    I am trying to adjust to a new lifestyle...my take home has been cut by about 2/3 to 3/4 of what I used to get, thanks to the interm orders. Nothing is final, but that's where I stand. I refuse to stop giving to my church. In the dicussions I've seen on various other sites, they have talked...

    How do you cut costs?

    Maybe I should have phrased the question better. Regardless of which side you are on in a divorce, you may have to make some cutbacks to your lifestyle, and in other things. I have been receiving e-mails daily from DivorceCare, and they are now talking about budgeting, emergencies and other ways...

    Argh!

    This is a consistent ARRGH! with me, but how is it that I can't get shared custody of my kids, and she can pawn them off to her family an average of 15 to 22 nights per month? I don't understand howsomeone can take for granted having their children around them, when I just want them around as...

    Just a vent

    I experienced the same issues with the stbx. I was listed as a friend on her 'social sites.' Funny that her guy was on there, and left posts and comments. Eventually, she dropped me, canceled it all together, and started another, oddly under her maiden name. One thing that I feel strongly about...
