How come we don't have a journal icon for mad as hell!

I am so mad at the ex right now we have this understanding that neither of us call each other at work, so as to not make things more awkward, but he decided to call me this morning on my way into work (twice).

It seems that the cheque that he gave me on the weekend might bounce because he went on a spending spree last. I told him that it was fine and that I would call the bank this morning to transfer money into his account to cover the missing amount and give him some spending money for the weekend. Nice of me, eh?

Well, I get into work and check into his account to make sure that the amount we agreed on was okay and then I notice that there is a $424 withdrawal last night from a place called Barbarellos fine, whatever I dont know what that place is. Curiosity got the better of me and I decided to google the place turns out it is a strip club!

Now, I am ticked. I dont care at all that hes going to clubs like that now what I care about is that it is now affecting me and my finances! What the hell why would he do that to me? If hes going to waste his money shouldnt it just be his money not affect me??? Well, I can tell you for sure that there will not be a snowballs chance in h*ll that I will make the same offer that I did this morning. I cant believe him! And now, I am on the verge of tears, again, at work.

Man, I wish this would all just go away.

Sorry, had to vent!

Well, I commented on your discussion post. I think you need to separate finances.

Although my stbx was not at bars, she spends way too much - $45K in credit card bills (she can\'t do math - she said it was $25k).

Before I filed for divorce, I opened up a separate checking account for myself, re-routed my paycheck into there, and one by one cancelled all the credit cards with both our names.

It was liberating, to say the least!
