So finished my taxes from last year.

Married all through the year and in the same house.

She let me do the taxes, I just did them jointly and got a low return from it. She’s mad because I should have filed separately and let her claim the kids and then we split that.

Maybe that would’ve been better, I don’t know. But, it certainly is a reminder of how somehow everything gets laid at my feet and get bitched at when it should have gone better.

It’s like the spending problem I’ve had throughout the years. She sure bitched about it (rightfully so), but when I would ask her to help me, mainly by just paying attention to the accounts it never happened. My spending is something I feel like was a heavy part of the divorce, and beat the hell out of myself about it. But, I’m seeing that I didn’t get support. It’s my problem, but she had hers too that I did support her through. What a one way street I lived on. I need to fix my own problems, and I will, but fuck if I thought marriage was about supporting each other.
