I've been lurking here for the better part of 5 months since I separated from my ex.
Like many of you, I"m currently in the process of trying to get 50/50 residency and custody of my two children, S3 and D6. Even though she wants 75/25 and sole custody (for no good reason), the ex has been going along with 50/50 for the last 3 months and our first case conference is in Feb. Also like many of you, my ex is the my-way-or-the-highway type of person and does not negotiate, she demands. She's also the type that belittles, dismisses and devalues me at every opportunity she gets. She isn't quite as bad as some of what I've read here, but she has made false accusations and tried to exacerbate conflict in an attempt to support her case. I"m currently living alone (with kids every other week) in the matrimonial home and she is living with her boyfriend one neighborhood over.
Anyways, this forum is a wealth of information and it's comforting to see I'm not alone with my struggles and there are many like me out there. Life is stressful for me right now but so far, I'm dealing with it well.
