Well, it finally happened, the proverbial camel's back has broken due to that last straw.

STBXW has been sandbagging the fuck out of this situation and dragged her ass at every turn. Done zero of what she says she has done, and been proven time and time again. Arguing about how to get the house ready to sell, she wants to wait 4-6+ months. Why, she has not answer. Always says no to any repair, she'll do it. Nothing gets done. Lawyers talk.

I say fuck it, let a judge decide. We file. Instant, no can't make that day. Luckily the next available day was only a few days later. Her lawyer tried to talk mine out of it. Mine said, nope.

We try talking about the house stuff to not have to go to court, no from them across the board. Her's send an email saying, we will approve one item, but the rest are hard no, here are our terms. Total bullshit, she accidentally damaged a couple tiles years ago and the Realtor has told her multiple times if it's not repaired it's likely flippers only and for WAY under asking. The tile is long since discontinued. Needs a re-tile. She's going to do it, never having done tile before.

She contacts me telling me she's going to do prep work the next day. I mention what about those smaller jobs the Realtor said add value, let's get an agreement since this is dragging on and Spring is a great time to sell.

She gets furious and asks why I did not read the proposals her attorney sent, and that she's NEVER spoken with our Realtor. I have 30 or 40 texts from her and the Realtor saying they have spoken.

Then follows up with from here on out if I speak with a Realtor it will be via email only and I'll CC her and her attorney. I tell her she lost the opportunity to have a say in my life when she left.

She's really gassed up now. Tells me, on my day off I need to be out of the house so she can work. I tell her she hasn't done shit in 4 months, so what's new.

She starts sputtering and I say, this is it, from now on you talk to me through my attorney.

I get an instant text. I remind her I said attorney contact only, ask your's if another text is harassment. Silence.

Email my attorney and give a brief overview. Attorney says, no big deal, expected since she has proven to delay again and again. We've got a court date and it should be pretty simple. My attorney then emailed hers reminding the house has functioning cameras.

I'm finally completely fucking done with this bullshit. The best decision was filing when I realized she wasn't doing shit. Here's hoping to freedom relatively soon!
