[a catered life]

[MsDrmr]

It's sad when things have to be that way.
I have been lucky that as much as the process has been hurtful/painful, we have been able to work things out amongst each other.
Glad to hear that you have found someone to represent you and that things look good. I am a firm beliver that Some men need to win, and some women need to loose.

My first one was like that. Me and the ex decided on what needed to be done and did it.
The 2nd one was a major biach about everything. This was even after I took care of her two daughters like they were my own. All sorts of piano lessons, tutors and stuff like that. After 3.5 years of marriage she thought she was entitled to more than the first wife who had my child and was with me for about 9 years.
If you can get it over quickly and move on you are both better off.
Good luck and get it done.
Dang Dilligaf... I didn't realize you'd been around the block a few times too... :idea: :D I tell you, marriage is about the stupidest thing a person can do anymore... in most cases. There are a handful that make it, but I just don't like the odds...

[Howie Feltersnatch]

Don't get married.

[ratso]

More than a few times but only two marriages :)
I have some stories very similar to your own stories. The P Rican live in girlfriend who always had a butcher knife chasing me. She even chopped my car up with the damn thing. Stuff like that....lol
LMAO... You only live once... might as well make it exciting! :crossx:

[RitcheyRch]

Congrats. I won custody of my Daughter a few years back and it was an awesome feeling.

[HocusPocus]

my first one was a mess... got married at 19 and working on divorce before i was 20, i should have listened to my first sergeant who said "if the military wanted you to have a wife, we would have issued you one in basic". my second marriage has been great, nov 12th we will celebrate 18 years. :rollside:

This is good news :)

for those who didnt know we have been divorced for years but i took her back to court because of the amount of problems she was causing :mad: my oldest daughter moved in with me permantly 5 years ago but i wanted controlling custody (60%) of the others......not to mention she's lazy as hell and on welfare :mad: the stupid ass DA office gave her assistance for my oldest child and since they found out the truth now they want to sue her for all the money their stupid asses gave her......if they would have listened to me a year ago when i tried to explain the situition to them this would have never happen instead the case worker treated me like i was a deadbeat father and gave her assistance......the judge for my case couldnt even believe the way this was handled

It's funny how many caseworkers and judges have their heads up their asses in situations like these... and the attorneys could give a fukk less who wins, long as they get paid... just a job for them...

I didn't take money from my ex either... When it comes to alot of women, that's usually what it's about first and foremost (not talking about you topless)...

[Desert Rat]

My wife and I got my son from the ex at the age of 8. Took us about 3 years to get the bad habits from his drug addict mother out of him! He graduated from college last year and is doing GREAT!! I have all the faith in the world in him and am so figgin proud of him! I am so proud he is "our" son. Keep your chin up Willie we ALL know the power of an involved parent!!!!!!!

LMAO... no, I have just followed some of your "plights" with the ex... and I know you are an exception to the rule. :D

That is the difference between a good lawyer and a shitty one. The shitty ones will just drag things out so they can make their next Beemer payment. The good ones take care of business, because they know that they'll have a referal knocking on their door soon. Never a lack a business for the good ones.
Glad to hear it's working out for you. I'm a believer in the system. It takes time and it can get pretty lousey for a while, but when you get your day in court, the look on the judges face when he hears all of the B.S. is priceless.
Best o' luck to you and your family.

Congrats! Nice hear it for the good guys, once in a while. :rollside:
As for the system, it is badly broken. It's design is a poor attempt to solve the problems of deadbeat Dads, but it ends up hurting good people and the kids get the short end of the stick. The level of incompentence in the system is mind-numbing, and that includes most of the attorneys and judges. I had a judge that took over my case after the other judge of a year and a half re-quesed (sp?) himself when he recognized my girlfriend (at the time) from the grocery store he shopped at. The new judge couldn't stay awake to hear my whole case while it was re-presented to him. Up too late playing poker w/the other judges and attorneys. And, I had the biggest, most expensive shark in the area. There goes my blood pressure! :mad:
But, great for you. It'd be nice if things could go in a rational way like that, more often. :cool:

There sir, is/was your problem.
My wife paid like $40K, while I paid, gulp only $15K. You just gotta get to the end of it. It is when you can't stand the B.S. any longer that you get hosed because you settled.
I ain't saying the system is perfect, just fair. I don't know how many times I had CPS knocking at my door, or how many times we had to go back to court to un-fock some crap that my ex's attorney tried to pull. I just remained cool and rode out the storm and got the last laugh.
Sorry AE, I don't mean to gouge at old wounds and get your pressure boiling. I am just speaking from what I witnessed first hand.

No worries. Everybody's exp. is different. At one time, thought about law school, but after seeing the non-sense in the actual profession and the system, I passed. Now I'm in Real Estate, and at least there's no nonsense in this business. Sheesh, didn't know if I was gonna be able to type that all out (the no non-sense in RE part). :cool:
