I just got a call from my older brother that my now ex-wife is unemployed.

There's a $1200 a month mortgage to pay and she didn't make but $12 an hour to begin with.

Missing just one paycheck would have sunk her.

In big plan of everything being soooo much better by getting rid of me, she never put being unemployed into the equasion. Not to mention OM dropping her like hot lead.

I'm hoping her affair and subsequent divorce led her to asking for more money and it put her on the corporate downsizing radar.

Her lack of education probably played a big role in removing overpaid clerical positions.

Karma is one thing, but don't gloat because we all know where she'll go to get more money - YOU! I can't remember if you pay alimony or not. If not, then you are safe.


It was a marriage that never really started.

Our divorce is over and I don't pay nothing!

Evidently she can't either now.

Oh yeah, things are so much better now!

Betrayed husbands, come bask with me in this cesspool of victory.

I'll get you a beer!

LOL I hear you. To put in most ELOQUENTLY in my former wife's words that she used to constantly throw up in my face: "What goes around - comes around." And... boy does it ever!
Let's just bask in the silence of victory, dude.
Enjoy...

PS - I'm not going to WASTE everyone's time here - or my own, for that matter - rehashing OLD divorce horror stories. That crap is ANCIENT history and it really is best to move on, burn that bridge, and never look back. 9 1/2 years ago I was kicked out - and it's been a better ride ever since without her SADDLING me with so much BS...

Early in the divorce, my wife sent an email to our church (the one that abandoned me) saying she could "feel God working in her life" and "he was on her side" and "the truth will be known".

It reeked of typical christian smugness of victory through hypocracy.

Seems she had gotten smote with some humility and she'll probably have to hit rock bottom to see the mess she's made.

And I will gloat all the way to H3ll.
