I have been dealing with a nutty ex wife for at least 3 years
now. My husbands ex wife has literally stolen money from him
(by having their income tax routed to an account without his
permission) has stolen the numbers off the bottom of his mothers
checks and paid some of her bills with it, has used their child
by threatening to move away with him if anyone does anything
about it, has done quite a few criminal acts along this line.
Since he and I met, she has said some really horrible things
about me, accused me (to my peers)of being on drugs - and I work
in the medical field, and several other really crappy things.
She does this because I confront her when a situation comes up.
No one else, including my husband, really addresses the issues.
Mainly because they are afraid that she will try to keep the
child away. Now, because I insisted he get an attorney, we have
his son 7 and 7. She hates me and she tells the child that I
have threatened to beat her up or kill her. I have never said
anything like that to her, although I dont have good thoughts
about her. I would never do anything to hurt that child. I
just need advice on what to do because there is no reasoning
with her. I really think she is nuts, but she recently locked
on to a wealthy (but ignorant) victim, who works offshore and is
rarely home. I can prove she cheats on him while he is offshore
but I dont want the child to have to go through all kinds of
drama if that comes to light. But I must say, my patience and
tolerance is running thin. I need some advice!!!!
