I just can't believe it. My divorce has been final for almost 6 months and just when I think its over, I get ANOTHER phone call about an unpaid bill. I am SO tired of dealing with HIS crap! Everyone keeps telling me, just pay the bill and then you won't have to worry about it. Well, for 9 years I just took care of things so he didn't have to and now even though we aren't married, I'm still cleaning up his messes! I'm sorry, I just have to vent! I swear, thru this whole process, I'm the one who has ended up doing everything from getting the divorce papers, filling them out, filing them, PAYING for it, taking care of the house and our dog, I am just SO tired of it all. When do I get to just take care of myself? Seriously, he turned 25 on Saturday, isn't he old enough to deal with his own crap!?

I'm sorry for going off, but this is just the end to a bad day!

For nine years you took care of things so he wouldn't have to. If he's 25 that would mean you have been taking care of things since he was 16? Well, you never let him grow up and now you expect him to take care of himself. Don't take phone calls about bills that are not your own. He will figure it out but you created his dependence.
