Ok, I know this is long, so please bear with me...


I was married for 3 years, but together a total of 6, with a man 10 years older than I am.


We divorced when our DS was 3 and Gavin is now a 17 year old senior in HS. I worked super hard to keep a relationship that was friendly with his Dad, even going so far as to move to the same town he was in and buy a house in the neighborhood so that the boy could walk between homes (when ds was 7 and I finished college)


XH responded to that by moving 2 towns away.

My best guess is that what is motivating her is greed and maybe some jealousy.

I am sorry that you are going through this. I know of another such situation and the father told his son who was just finishing up college that his new wife wanted him out of the house in one week. Where do these guys come from? I just don't get it.


I think diamondslb gave you good advice about seeing a lawyer. Your son is almost an adult and I think it would be a good idea to get this college thing settled in court before he graduates hs.


I also think it would be a good idea for you and your son to see a counselor, so you can get things straight with ds about how you should be treated and so he will be able to better deal with his fathers actions.


Good luck and let us know how things are going.

Talk to a lawyer and get everything in writing as to what dh is supposed to support.
