Hi everyone
First off let me state that I am in Alberta and all this happened in Alberta so hopefully someone here knows a little about Alberta Family law.
My ex gf and I split up 1 year 11 monthes ago. We lived together for 3 and 1/2 years. We bought a house (She put down the down payment and i made the mortgage payments). She has a son who's biological father was killed in an accident in 2001 who is now 15.
Now i am sure you all can see where I am going with this.
When I left almost 2 years ago she threatened me with C/S and S/S even though she always PROMISED me she would never come after me for that because her boy was not my boy.
We got through selling the house with not too many issuses and we were back on freindly terms and she never came after me for anything though she would occasionally threaten me with it.
Now here is where it gets sticky cause i could be found to have stood in place as a parent because of the mortgage payments. I never paid directly for his clothing, school supplies etc etc and yes he did call me dad but really againest my wishes as i felt very uncomfortable with it. I was never involved with disciplining him as she stated he was not my son and she did not include me in most of the decisions when it came to him. I never introduced him as my son to anyone. He was always introduced as her boy. She also always filed widowed on her taxes and not common law and told me if I filed common law she would end the relationship ( wished i would have done it lol) so in essence causing both of us to commit a no-no with revenue canada and she used another address in her income tax returns.
My relationship with her boy has not been bad not has it been like a father son relationship. I never felt comfortable with pretending to be someones dad and have no desire to have my own children which she also knew from the start.
Now we have been freindly for the last year and have even tried breifly to patch things up from seperate residences. She just a month ago moved into the same apartment building i live in, in hopes of us moving in together at some point.
Now i do not want this and have told her so and now we are back with her threatening me for C/S and S/S. again. She does work but my income is 2 1/2 times more then hers.
After this length of time apart can she still come after me for this or am i stressing out for nothing and I should tell her to just go pound rocks. I know S/S would be very close to out of the question since she is self sufficient, however she is threatening that if i do not get back with her she will take me for everything she can cause she is looking after herself.
We were also engaged but that ended a year and 4 months before we became seperated.
I hope this gives a good idea of what has been going on and someone can give me some idea if she can even come after me this long after seperating
Thanks
Don
