Just such a bad, bad day...

Thirty two emails back and forth between H and me...started after I told him he couldn't take the children until we had an agreement well on it's way to being agreed upon (since he's not responding/giving input to issues surrounding custody & visitation and his concerns over finances is laughable)....and the reality of the situation is just hitting so hard for me.
It's expensive to live where I live. Really expensive. I'm a teacher. It just stinks. And I have no family here. And it's

Boy can I relate.
THanks CTD. That's just it though, he doesn't think we need attorneys. I told him I needed one to be sure I covered all the possible bases related to asset distribution. That is what they do well. And that we can still come to an agreement on property and custody on our own--and doing that will save money. But still 32 emails later (and three
I'm with you Moving.
Always hated those bad days! You just have to write off some days as a bust and remind yourself that tomorrow will be better. Is there any way you can schedule the days you have to deal with the STBX? I know it's hard right now because you're still in the planning phases.
I understand your concerns about living in an expensive area...same here! After my divorce, I ended up renting a dingy apartment (with free termites..lol!). But the peace of mind I had afterward was great. I won't kid you, it was a struggle. I got remarried and we had to purchase a home the next town over because we couldn't afford anything in my son's school district. Siiighhhh...it is tough, but you WILL be OK, even if it doesn't seem that way right now.
I am sorry you are having a hard time.
Huge hugs to you! Circular arguments drive me mad! Would you be able to suggest to him to back off? I have been trying to make my husband understand that all of these arguments are just pointless. Unless someone has something new to add to the discussion, why talk about it at all? Another suggestion might be only responding to his emails once a day? That might make your days easier.
Hang in there!!!

It must be the time of year, sounds like a lot of us are having a hard time. It is very frustrating not having closure (and the countless emails must be sooooo frustrating), thank goodness my STBX doesn't have one. I haven't posted here in a while and I'm ready today, lots of strange things going on in my life, but I'll put it out there for everyone.
I just wanted you to know that you aren't alone, I'm sending positive vibes your way. You friggin deserve it for sure with all this crap.
I know exactly what you are saying..We do not
