I know I have stated this before but it needs repeating.
It does not pay to be the primary "bread winner" when it comes to separation/divorce. The law does not discriminate between males and females which is great, but it does discriminate against people who have worked hard and make more money. The system definitely favours the lazy.
I work hard so that she gets to spend more time with my kids. I work all summer so she can have summer off. Why am I punished, because I get up early, have to travel further to make a decent living. My reward for making more money?, I get the joy of paying my X even more and I get even less time with the kids because I have to work.
It is ironic that someone who said that she no longer wanted to be with me still needs me to survive financially. She wants to be a Single Parent.....but still wants the financial security that I provide.
I have worked hard all my life and provided for my family, but now all I get to do is pay and pay.
It has been a year since my separation, I have lost so much time with my kids over the past year. Time that can never be replaced.
Am I bitter, yes, but how can someone not be bitter when they have lost time with their kids.
