I am recently divorced and will never remarry. I have already been in that rodeo and see no reason to expose myself to that level of risk again. I currently give my ex-wife $3K a month for child support plus about 70% of the kid’s incidentals such as music, lessons, sports, etc. that adds up to about $3.7K a month. She called me two weeks ago and asked me for money to pay for her $1500 insurance copy for a lumpectomy and she was surprised and hurt when I told her that it was her boyfriend’ an/or her family’s responsibility.
No nookie, no cookie.
Never be surprised by what a woman thinks she “deserves.”
