Thanks guys..

I like the Craigslist idea..lol!

I'm just tired and almost willing to do anything to just be done. Things can be replaced. Having him out of my life might be worth an empty house.

I don't think I will and I'm so tired of fighting. I had everything when he moved in...some things we upgraded but I offered to pay half (even though even most of the new things I purchased anyway).

he just wants it all and at this point, i can't stomach trying to fight.

You need to stop listening to strangers and get a good lawyer. They are around, you just have to ask. Asking a corporate lawyer can get you leads on who is good at divorce. Judges have seen everything so they tend to be fair.:thumbsup:

Moving forward is everything.:thumbsup:

I have contacted a lawyer but I can't afford the 2,000 dollar retainer most of the require.

What the ex isn't taking into account is during our marriage, I paid for ALL household expenses...rent, utilities, phone, cable, half the food..I pay for my car, etc....he's just a jerk.

Lawyer... $2,000.
Divorce... 50% of everything.
Sharing kids and pets with husband... 50% 0f your heart.
Used pistol at local gun store and box of ammo... $100.
Some things money can't buy, but this isn't one of them.
I only do the math, the choice is ultimately yours.

Gee, Lisa, I feel your pain, as I have been there, a long time ago. I lost everything, and all it was eventually was the next beginning. As long as you have the girls and some hope, you will be fine. I have no idea how the Law works there, but I suggest countersuing, offer the lawyer 75% of what you get as contingency, and drive him out of the State. Best of luck...

I didn't want to but I am so hating my soon-to-be ex right now. He's poised to take EVERYTHING that *I've* worked so hard for. And when I say everything, I mean the entire house full of furniture. He was living at home with Mom and Dad when we got married...moved in with nothing but his computer and a dresser and now he wants the entire living room, the bedroom, and the kitchen set and MY computer. He's not working and wants ME to pay ALL his bills and looks as though he's going to get his way. I am SO FED UP I am just ready to hand it all over and be done. I am seriously at the end of my rope and can't take much more.

Sorry, didn't mean to vent but nobody here wants to listen. You guys can choose to read or not. I'm usually pretty good at holding myself together but I can't do this.

Got pulled over for doing 110 mph in a 55 mph zone... and the cop let me drive away without a ticket! I am WAY taking that as a sign to stop driving it daily. I have too many performance parts on it to want to go the speed limit, so I show it off a lot. I need to make it my "Weekend" car. Something I take to the track or show, and maybe to a drive in restaurant to show off, and that's it. I now have been pulled over 3 times in just over 3 months. I am deploying in the next 2 weeks (or so, seeing as it is taking FOREVER to get my paperwork straight) to Iraq for my 3rd time. Wish me luck, and I'll try to check in once in awhile!

All of you, really. Thank you SO much. I can't possibly let anyone know how much your compassion means to me. Anybody who says an online community isn't REAL just has no clue.

I know I'll be OK...maybe with a house absent of furniture and for a while and things at this moment just seem so hopeless...but if it's THINGS that will make him happy, he can have them. Life just isn't about THINGS.

Please don't spend much time with the hate thing, it only hurts you, and you don't need that now. Find nice people and hang with them.

When I found myself with nothing, I found that my real friends pitched in and helped where they could: furniture, linens, food, nights out, anything they could. The only way out of this will be with the help of your friends. Please count us among your friends, Lisa, we are here for you...

Lisa, I walked away the first time. Left him the house and pretty much everything. I had a 5 year old and was 7 months pregnant. Could not have another child with that man. Would have been wrong for me and the girls. I have never regretted it, well except for not leaving sooner, but then I wouldn't have my youngest. I know the girls think I made the right decision as well. They turned out really well so I guess I did OK.

Keep your chin up, all we can do is the best we can do. Lean on your friends and family.

Sorry, didn't mean to vent but nobody here wants to listen. You guys can choose to read or not. I'm usually pretty good at holding myself together but I can't do this.

Don't mean to be skeptical but you got more fight left in you. You gotta do it for yourself. If you don't stand up for yourself now years from now you'll regret it. Take it from me - nothing fuels regret like failing to stand up for yourself at the right moment.

It's not like you have to resolve it "here and now". You need to talk to your lawyer and see if you really owe him anything. This is a marathon and not a sprint, so pace yourself, take it easy and think things out carefully.

I take it that you have a lawyer? If not, why not? Why does he have all of the marbles? What is so special about this clown?

You're working and he isn't working? You got the power in this situation. You're the one with the steady income. You're the one who can pay a lawyer to stall him, make him wait and sweat, until his lack of money makes him take a better deal.

Dirty? Is it dirty to do what he did to you? Why do you owe him consideration at this point in time? Isn't he just giving you a last kick in the pants before he splits with you? Why give the creep the satisfaction?


If the "man" had any self respect he wouldn't ask for everything, he'd be fair minded about it. He'd get himself a temp job at the very least, not demand that his soon to be former spouse support him and give him the furniture.

The furniture!! What's he gonna do with furniture? Buy another house and make your pay for it? Rent a place and make your pay for it? Sell it off maybe?

If your lawyer ain't doing their job sack them. Get a second opinion - a lot of attorneys will give a free consult for the first half an hour. See what your legal options are in the state where you reside. You'd be surprised what you can negotiate if you're ready to walk away from the table.

Remember, Lisa, this is a marathon, not a sprint. Don't dash and don't expect to settle this any time soon. Be ready to stall, maneuver and move about until his lack of income wears him down.

Otherwise, you can take the easy way out, a way that isn't so easy in the long term, years from now, when you tell yourself, "I could have hacked it" and "I should have made him earn a living".

The economy? I still get phone calls for Contractor work, years after I quit looking. I get a mailing from Monster.com three times a week. There is work out here, it's not the greatest work, the hours aren't the best nor the pay, but it's enough to live on.

He has no excuses.... and if he has "problems" why are they your problems? Did you ruin his life? Did you hurt him? What do you owe him? He's the one who wasn't faithful, right? He's the one who stabbed you in the back, right? Why does he deserve a last insult after all of the injury?

Get your self respect back. Don't give him the satisfaction. Make up your mind to fight for what's yours and then go for it.

Why does his happiness matter? What about your happiness?

Things do matter. With things we can accomplish tasks and meet goals. I say let him have half of the things. If he's playing games because he wants half of the house make a counter offer - sure he can have half of the house - after you sell it. In this housing market lots of luck.

I may sound "heartless" but my compassion is short for people who play dirty tricks on other folks. I have been an instrument of Karma, and I will be again.

Wouldn't matter if the law allowed it or not, with tons of homes up for sale right now - a lot of them at "distress" prices - nobody is moving homes too fast for decent prices.

Lisa is holding the cards - she has a job, she has the kids (if she's got them), and she has a system which is engineered to beat "deadbeats".

All she has to do is hammer the boy until he sees the light, takes his fair share minus lawyer fees and then takes a hike.

Quick story....

I have a cousin, she's a couple of years younger than I. She had a "female" condition that demanded she have kids early because eventually she'd have to get a hysterectomy. Most of her life she'd fall in love with losers who would abuse her, but as she grew older she got more particular.

Her biggest thing was being a Mom. Everything else came after that.

After she got her BS in Nursing she married a Marine Aviator. Looked like Ollie North, polite, cordial. His old man was Career Marine and a standup guy. Figured that the kid would turn out the same way.

They got married, bought a big assed house off base, had a little boy. A year later they had a little girl. While she was recovering from the damage of childbirth (she's only 4' 11") he pops off in his fighter plane to see his girlfriend.

My cousin gets wind of it. Takes him out. She turned him in to his CO, who tossed him out of the Corps. He stalks her for a time, and tried to get support. Her lawyer smashed him like a roach in court and he vanished. I've heard that his kids don't know their biological father and could not care less to meet him.

She then was stuck with a monthly Mortgage of $2,300 a month (back in the 1990s) and two toddlers. Tough times but she made it.

She went through another loser before she found a standup guy. He adopted the two kids, they had another together. She's happy today.

You gotta go for what you want in life and be patient.

I have this co-worker that is always complaining about how she's single and she wants to meet someone. i've been hearing this since i started back here in january. At first i would be a good co-worker and actually hear her out. Now it's just old. SHUT UP!!! i don't want to hear it. I will never understand how some people's happiness is dependent on if they are dating someone. Grow up life is not a freakin' disney movie. Stop sitting around on your a** waiting for prince charming to come around. Go out have fun and enjoy being single. IT'S FUN!!! May get lonely at times. But i'd rather be alone than be with a scorpion woman. I really get tired of hearing that sad sappy crap, a man can only take so much. I hear it start and i just walk out, get some confidence, stop worrying about other people, focus on you. you will not die if you do not meet someone. It WILL be ok. Just let things happen naturally. When you force it, bad things happen. Sorry if i came off like a-hole people. I guess hearing her is the the straw that broke the camels back. Stressful day

I go out to pay my mortgage during lunch time. Get to the bank, pull out "cash", for a payment and a half. Hand it to the teller and give them my mortgage account number. The teller says to me, we can't make the payment. Why, you might ask? Because it's not a complete payment, they don't take partial payments. WTF, my head cocks to the side and looks oddly at them. I'm trying to give them more money that they are asking for and they can't take the money I owe them, basically their money, lol. Long story short, they won't take partial payements even though I was giving more. If you have Well Fargo or Wachovia, I'd suggest a refi. with someone else. The oddest thing I have ever delt with in banking.

I don't know of any mortgage company that takes partial payments. Any excess is usually designated as "principle only" and doesn't get applied to your payment cycle but instead reduces the principle balance.

Was your intention to make a principle payment or pay half of next months mortgage?

I never heard that one, I've never had any kind of a loan that I couldn't pay as much as I wanted when ever I wanted or at least as much as I wanted once a month. Looks like they are trying to max the amount of interest there collecting. Might be as my grandfather used to say "shenanigans". We used to have a name for one of those banks when they were only in North Carolina: Walk over ya.

Firstly I should correct my use of the word - the proper term is principal.

Anyhow, I'm not sure what the deal was with KCLAB's situation because if he had specified to apply the additional amount to the principal it should have been done. Even if you pay extra principal each month you still have to make a full payment the following month.

Mortgages are a little more complicated than other loans since most of them contain escrow, insurance etc. and the bank has no easy way to break additional amounts down and apply it correctly. However, applying any additional funds to the principal is easy and actually lowers the amount of interest you pay over time.

Perhaps KCALB just got a new teller that didn't understand what he was asking to be done.

I have had dealing Wachovia that have been troublesome and less than upright. My appearance is that of a long haired country boy, but I have a very quiet year degree in Business Administration from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. The dissemblence (sp?) an informed person catches banks trying to engage in when he looks uninformed are amazing. Application of money to principal is usually an easy and direct process, so much so that any additional sum is in most cases assumed to be intended that purpose. Perhaps an uniformed teller, perhaps a well informed teller.

OPEN LETTER TO THE D***CHE ON A BIKE WHO ATTACKED MY YARIS THIS MORNING:

1) Riding a bike is hard, and I have respect for you for doing this in an urban area, but that doesn't mean that you can ride in the middle of the road and stop right there when you feel like it, without any regard for the flow of traffic behind you. If you don't know where you're going, pull over to the right and ask someone for directions or something, but don't just stop there in the middle of the road and halt the flow of traffic behind you. That creates a dangerous condition. Move over to the right side of the road, at least.

2) When I honk at you to signal that I'm going to go around you, because clearly you don't realize there are cars behind you, DO NOT, and I repeat DO NOT, turn around and insult me, and let me know how much you hate cars. I don't care how you feel. I'm just trying to get to work, so not a good time to tell me about your feelings. Plus I got other cars behind me, so you see, I need to get out of the way, too.

3) Hating cars is one thing, but when you then turned around and rammed your bike repeatedly into the door of my car to make sure I really understand how much you hate cars, let me tell you dude, you're lucky you didn't get a taste of my baseball bat right across your lame ass face. I don't care if you hate cars, I don't care if your wife left you this morning, I don't care if hurts when you pee lately, or if you haven't had sex since the Reagan administration. In short, I DON'T CARE what your fucking problem is. DON'T EVER TRY AGAIN TO CAUSE DAMAGE TO MY YARIS OR I'll give you a good reason to hate cars. :rolleyes:

No, I didn't. That's what my boss said exactly. I was late for work, all I wanted to do was get out of there. Property damage is minimal, can hardly see the bump. I'm just really mad cause I almost lost it there. I was telling myself the whole time, to not get out of the car... cause I really wanted to scratch his eyes out. What bugs me the most is that it's probably someone from my neighborhood. Ugh...

Well, that's that made me so mad!!! When I was ridding a bike, I was always under the impression that because you're a slow moving vehicle, you have to ride on the right side of the road? not impeach traffic? And when you want to turn right or left, you signal, so people behind you know what's going on. WTF?!! :iono:

@Bobelectrics: No I didn't call the cops. It happened way too fast for that and the property damage is minimal. Thankfully, the guy had nice, thick, mtn bike tires :biggrin: so minimal damage. I reached for my phone to take a picture, of course, as luck would have it, today is the day I forgot to recharge my phone so no battery, no juice to make a phone call. Ugh...

That wasnt a Hippie, they cruz in vans remeber? That there was a tree hugger.....much worse. Hippies are peaceful, tree huggers sabotage cars and such. THEY are the ones who need the aspirin. Many Yaris owners are former hippies with respect for mother nature and the almighty dollar. Many are "slight hippies. Me? I'm just and old fart trying to relive his youth, modding my "Ruby"(Mediterranean Mica red) as I see fit, and can scrape up the bucks, and maybe a bit of a former hippie......ALMOST went to Woodstock....

OK, I thought you guys might be interested in my co-workers' reactions.

1 said "Get a gun" (in all fairness I told the same guy last week how we were burglarized and the week before I told him how they laid off 85 police officers, and now the police doesn't respond for most routine, non violent stuff)

3 related similar stories of gratuitous hostility towards cars they've personally witnessed during Critical Mass, in San Francisco http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_Mass (uh? WTF!!! I've always been a huge supporter of critical mass but I'm gonna have to rethink that, I think :rolleyes:)

1 or 2 - simply gave me blank looks like "ask me if I care" kind of looks (OK, dude, wait until that happens to you :evil::biggrin:)

1 guy laughed and made a joke "yeah, right, bike road rage, hahaha"

2 or 3 said "yeah, people are assholes lately" and related similar stories of people acting like douches in public transportation or on the road ...

Pffffeewww. What is the world coming to, I really wonder lately. :iono:

:biggrin:

not when i pump you with more tabs then recommended lol. nah im seriously not a advocate of violence as far as on this type of stuff, but i own firearms and have had to pull and use my weapon out of my own car last year. was damn glad i had it vs getting stabbed. now the red tape that comes with popping a few off is enough to keep you from shooting and just brandishing instead...... took me 3 months to get my firearm back since he ended up not making it through the whole ordeal. 2 court appearances later and they told me what i already knew..... i did nothing wrong and that he was a piece o poop street junkie that had more rap sheets than my toilet paper roll when its newly changed. i honestly did the world a favor by defending myself.

@ Tomato: your a abetter person than I am! I probably would have ran him off the road and then gotten out of the car blacked out and beat the living $hit out of the guy and then prob gone to jail for ridding the world of this POS person! I probably have the worst road rage than most of you have seen...(spent a few summers in NJ and fit right in) but this would've put me WAY over the top!
You can eff with me and you can eff with anything else of mine but don't effin eff with my efffin Car! I KILL YOU! (yelled as Achmed the dead terrorist)

Well I guess my rant was about your rant but reading it just mad me mad as hell!

tomato
08-05-2010, 05:57 PM
@bkn I don't know if I'm a better person, I just don't wanna go to jail :smile:

Knowing that you guys would have felt the same way kind of makes me feel better already and posting the rant is a good way to let go of some of the anger, so thanks guys for the empathy.

I just hope I never see his ass face again in the neighborhood, may not be able to stay so zen next time :frown:

I still kind of wanna know what the law allows someone to do in this case, to defend their property. If the guy had reached for my person, I would have fought for sure. But I'm not clear on where the limit is on what level of force (if any) is acceptable to defend your property, whether you're in your car, or whether you see a burglar walking away from your place with your stuff or whatever...

@zachry : I'm not sure it's legal out here to have a weapon in your car anyway.

sickpuppy1
08-05-2010, 07:41 PM
If you feel threatened in anyway, you have a right to defend yourself. By hitting your car, he is liable for destruction of private property, road rage, and probably other offenses. The threatening manner is considered asault.(if he touches you its battery)
What would have been righteous is to whip out your perfectly legal pepper spray and watch him literally crap himself in a humiliating pile of screaming wussy-ness in the middle of the street! Oh! You dont carry it? My gosh, in these times a woman traveling by herself should NEVER be without some sort of protection! (hint)

Better than most weapons, a camera is a great equaliser. One simply takes a few pics of the guy beating on your car, then take the camera to the closest copshop; their work is done, they just pick up the guy the next time they see him...

I have used this to great effect; usually just taking the pics are enough to make the difference. Besides, even if other weapons were available to me, I wouldn't use them. Getting older and wiser, I guess.

Better than pepper spray, is a thing called Raid Wasp Spray. Totally legal, easy to purchase (on sale at Home Depot), and can spray a stream of over 25 feet. If it gets in your eyes, you HAVE to go to the ER to get the anti-toxin. Super sweet payback, and a lot of cops recommend keeping it near the front door of your house and in your car if you park far away and feel threatened where you park. Yeah, and it totally ruins any clothes you get it on, because of the chemiclas in it.

You know what, I saw that douche that hit my car, in the neighborhood, last week-end!!! This time, this asshole was riding on the ***wrong side of the road**** against traffic, 50 yards ahead of me :rolleyes: I looked straight at him, he didn't recognize me, but surprisingly I recognized him. I should have honked!!! I bet he would have remembered me then!! But I didn't have my camera, so I just turned right and drove off. I'm gonna start packing my camera again.

Now I know who he is. Some rich asshole who lives up the hill (I kind of suspected that much) drives an expensive bike, and doesn't think the vehicle code applies to him. The guy knew what he was doing, knew he was gonna get away with it.

Karma will catch up with that douche, I just know it. Or my camera.

World is full of crazy jerks. :iono:

um, I only really need to point to the name you chose to prove your absurdly large ego. Frankly, that ends that discussion.

Yes, you are obviously helpful, and you have a pretty cool vehicle to boot. I really hope you actually meet and exceed your crazy goals. However you act like you are the first and only person to even think of boosting this engine. Never mind digging through Scikotics circa 6 years ago, you'd just need to look through these forums to see you are wrong.

You and Tamago actually have a ton in common.

If you knew how the name Xbgod got started you'd understand but since you don't, I'll explain.

Ya, up front it sounds cocky however, Working and manufacturing parts for NHRA race cars the running joke of the shop was the box couldn't make over 225hp. Then all these parts started showing up from other manufactures to test and tune and take to SEMA and PRI. So as all this free shit started showing up the guys in their scarcastic way were "you are the Xbgod" All this free shit for this brick, no one else in their right mind would be doing this to this motor.

So any time a new part would show up the running joke was its for the xbgod.

There now you know.

i came here to mention to the sheep who read this thread hoping for information, that there is misinformation. i then pointed the misinformation out. you're useless here. and by here i mean yarisworld. i've been here long enough to be useful to YW in many ways. and you? did you get kicked out of all the scion forums? or did they get sick of you talking about how awesome you are, so you came here seeking attention and praise? you've spent a lot of money on your xB. hooray for you. what kind of questions are you answering via PM anyway? what thread have you EVER started where you weren't saying "check out the stock photos i'm posting of parts i bought but somehow can't show an actual picture of" ?

Shows how much you pay attention. If you kept up with whats going on here you'd know I've been in Iraq so my pics are what I could get from my buddies at their places of busines.

As far as the Scikotics forum goes I still post their daily. And yeah these cars share the same motor which I'm sure you know. So theres plenty to talk about.

And as far as boosting and putting rods and pistons in one of these motors. I am the first.

My self and Brian Crower took care of that.

idk about over there, but over here i got unlimited internet but not so much telephone...any way, i'm on sprint's network and i got unlimited text, pix, vids, nav, internet, mms, sms, whatever...and 450 phone minutes. but i'm never on the phone part of it.

when they tried to take my plan and make it a newer jacked up plan, i told them they can't change it without my approval as i'd signed a contract. it goes both ways. if you signed up for the promotion then they need to honor that promotion and give it to you for that price, and not change it. for the longest time i was on cingular, for like 3 years, and then at&t bought them out. i had 1000min, and unlimited text. well, at&t didnt have that plan and they wanted me to get on their 350min/300txt plan for that same price....i kept my old contract for another 3 years until they finally got on my nerves with customer service and i changed to verizon....another mistake...and now i'm sprint and i love it. not as good a coverage as verizon but i almost never have a problem. and not as good a selection of phones either but i love my HTC.
