Thanks for the advice everyone. I have read these threads in the past but never really figured I would be involved in this. I have re-read some of this advice as it has been given to others and it truly does help. That's why I wanted to give a big thank you to everyone here. It seems no matter what someone needs the great advice is plentifull.
I have tried remaining positive about this, keeping the kids as my main focus. I dont want this to be any harder on them than it has to be. I agree 100% about minding p's and q's in front of the kids. I just wish she felt the same. The games seem never ending, whether she is prying information from them or trying to mess up a great day we have had. The worst part of this is that she will not agree to any sort of joint legal or physical custody (unless I agree to pay her ransom in child support). I don't understand how someone can preach having their best interests in mind and in the next breath be trying to take them from the other spouse. I have never thought of doing that to her, I believe it is in the kids best interest to have 50-50 with both parents. Unfortunately they are another tool to her to get to me just as her going for the cars.
The Mustang is gone, split that money 50-50. The Nova is pre-marital but she wants money for things done since the marriage (tires, wheels and the hood) plus any increase in value. Fortunately it tanked in value since we have been married (thank you crappy economy
) . As for dads old Camaro she wants half the value which is next to nothing. I offered up a large amount of household items so I could keep his car but she refused, it's all a game.
Anyways thanks for letting me rant here. I know things will turn around and the boys and I will be better in the long run.
