Ex not paying bills

It took me two years dealing with the same crap. She my x was able to save a large sum of money and I went into debt.

I have the exact same situation. I have never shown my cards and wanted to meditate all along.

She prefers litigation and standing behind her lawyer who’s now stalling. In the meantime I’m paying the bills.

I’m now just pushing it to court for the judge to decide, there’s no point engaging with someone who doesn’t show a willingness to cooperate.

Usually there are child support calculators and such that are most likely what she'll be getting. Once you get all these details from in consultation with lawyer you tell her what you're using and that she's unlikely to get more if this goes to court. If her lawyer is reasonable then they might agree. Point it out to her that if lawyer is pushing her to fight, delay, then it's money for lawyers and court instead of you both and the child.

Then make an offer

Put your big boy pants and get moving

Yeah pointless to talk to her about it. Don’t show your cards

Yep, that’s super frustrating. You gotta go through your lawyer to deal with this.

Then rely on your lawyer. Many would say you are lucky not having to communicate with the succubus.
