Well, my ex has just made my life even harder by getting his lawyers to send me a letter for settlement on our house. He's given me an offer which is $25K under what I have invested in this house and a month to move out. I can't believe he's being so stupid and paying lawyers rediculous money just to get the house. There is no way i'm letting him buy me out, I want the house sold. I know i'm entitled to more of the profit as I'm the sole carer for our child. The worst thing is, he's fighting for his house but not his daughter, that's so sad. I was told last night by a friend of his that apparently he thinks our daughter was the biggest mistake of his life and he wants nothing to do with her. If that's the case i'd love it if there was someway I could get him to sign her over to me for good and that he would then have nothing to do with her at all, ever. I'm not sure if I could afford to bring her up on my own though so I don't know which avenue would be best. I'm sure i'd find a way though and it would be better then having her around him or his family. Now i'm going to have to get legal help to fight this battle. I was hoping we could do it through mediation as it wouldn't cost anything but i'm not giving up on this one. I'm so angry again and angry at myself for choosing this man (if you could call him that) to be the father of my daughter. I know without him I wouldn't have her but I feel sad for her and what might come of all this. Grrrrrr!!!!!
