My ex-wife often accuses me of initiating too much legal action. However, throughout over a decade of legal battles, she hasn't allowed me a single minute of custody with our child. She claims I'm the one dragging her to court, yet I've had to struggle for every moment I now share with my child. It took nearly seven years to secure 50% custody, and I hoped that would end the litigation. Surprisingly, the past five years have seen continued legal disputes from her side, mainly to evade child support payments. Interestingly, she has spent more on these recent legal battles than the total child support owed to me. This behavior seems illogical, unless viewed through the lens of narcissism. I handled all this while dealing with harassment from her, her attorney, and a third party harassment team.

Happy New Year everyone! As we step into the new year, here's a friendly reminder: Stay Healthy and Happy, and please, do not marry an Evil Veronica!

 

Again, I wish this was an exaggeration.

Don't marry an Evil Veronica!

 

OMG. This is disgusting. Her attorney is going to try and push this like a drug. It's worked for a while. Let's see how she does now. It's sad that people behave this way in the world. If you have responsibilities, just acknowledge and accept them.

 

Don't get married to an Evil Veronica!

 

Although I wish I could say that this portrayal of her behavior is an exaggeration, regrettably, it is not.

Don't marry an evil Veronica!

 

November 19th is International Men's Day. Let's look at some grim statistics for males:

73% of people who go missing are male

76% of suicides are by men

87% of rough sleepers are men

3x - the amount of times a man is to become dependent on alcohol and drug use

76 y/o is the life expectancy of a man born in the U.S.

Men are more likely to be victims of violent crime

Men report lower levels of life satisfaction than women

Men are less likely to access psychological therapies than women

Men make up the vast majority of the prison population

18.3% percentage of custody granted to fathers

10% percentage a man get less in child support, if they even get it (as was my case)

I took these statistics from various "official" government websites from the U.S. and U.K.

In my opinion, I don't doubt for a minute that some of these statistics are intertwined (e.g., amount of suicides related to divorce and custody percentages).

Don't get married to an Evil Veronica!

The weight of a decade's worth of distress can leave profound marks on a person's soul, and unfortunately, I have become intimately acquainted with this heavy burden. It plunged me into a profound state of depression, where each day was shadowed by uncertainty, always apprehensive about the next move from my ex-wife and her legal counsel, while waiting for the next wave of abuse to attack me from people that I didn't even personally know. It was the unwavering bond with my child that provided a glimmer of hope in the darkness, a beacon that guided me through my most challenging days.

Moreover, it has been deeply disheartening that for five long years, my efforts to seek justice and fairness in the family courts were thwarted. Missteps by one judge and the subsequent successful appeal against another poor decision made by a second judge have painted a stark picture of inefficiency within the system. The apparent partiality shown towards my ex-wife's attorney by the courts has been disquieting to witness.

It's a sad reflection on the state of affairs when the systems designed to protect the well-being of families seem to falter under the influence of self-interest and avarice. The thought of such dynamics manipulating the lives of devoted parents and innocent children is truly disconcerting. This ordeal has been a testament to the resilience required to navigate such trying times, and it's a journey no one should have to endure alone.

Creating these posts have offered me a measure of comfort amid the turmoil I've faced. While I may not receive the justice I seek, they grant me the strength to continue moving forward. I hold onto the hope that I will discover tranquility in my life and forge a peaceful bond with my child without the interruption from my ex-wife, her father or from third parties that attempt to put a wedge between the unconditional love that I have for my daughter while trying to discourage me from being a father to her , altogether.

 

I know. Pretty lame... but I'm healing!
