Just a vent: My stbxw filed about 7 weeks ago, stating her intention for an amicable divorce and of course it has been anything but. We are living under the same roof with our two young daughters (never leave the kids, never leave the marital home, don’t give up the ship!). As I detailed Saturday, I was threatened and had hands put on me by my in laws this weekend. While one may think this clear crossing of the line would put my stbxw on the defense, she is instead running scared and ratcheting up the misery. She lies about the incident. She lies about where she is with the kids. She brought my daughter to open house at school without me. I wanted to go so I brought the kids back up to the school in my car when they returned so my daughter could show me her work. When I got home, I was accused of “throwing” the girls in the car. I opened the door and they climbed in themselves. This bitch is just lying left and right and tipping her hand that she plans to drum up a bogus order of protection. This is hell. I feel like Andy Dufresne dreaming of Zihuatanejo as I wait for a separation agreement and getting away from this lunatic and her funny farm family. I have notified my lawyer of all this and she is working to get things resolved, hopefully without any orders of protection as it is abundantly clear any legitimate motion I make for one will be retaliated by a bogus one from her. I am crawling through the river of shit and cannot wait to come out clean on the other side.
