    Ex wife wants to itemize and split the cost of everything

    So my ex-wife and I used to have a great relationship. But she has become petty and somewhat vindictive these last couple months. Our relationship started going downhill after her daughter, my ex-step daughter, broke into my house and stole from me

    and my new wife while we were on vacation together. Yes, I invited my ex-wife and her boyfriend to come on vacation with us to so it would be a family thing. My (current) wife was completely fine with it. Not only did we invite them, we paid for everything, plane tickets, rental house, meals, activities, etc. We've done this before and it was nice.

    While we were on this vacation my ex-wife's daughter broke into our house and stole from us. We had to file a police report because some of the things stolen was medication and we couldn't get new prescriptions without filing a police

    report. This upset my ex- wife even though we told her before we called the police and she said "do what you need to do" Before this, my ex and I would pretty much just buy what the kids needed while we had them. Every once in a while she'd ask me to split the cost of some things and I would. I have never asked

    her to split the cost of anything prior to this. But lately she has been asking to split the cost of just about everything. Fine, whatever. I usually get most of the things for the kids anyway.

    About a month ago my son needed new some equipment for indoor lax. She asked if I would split. I said fine. When she took him out shopping they couldn't find everything. So I bought most of it online. I asked her what she bought and how much and I told her what I bought and how much. It turned out she owed me for the split. It was

    only $40, I would have let it go but she hounded me for a week over $5. This her off. She'd be fine when I have to pay her but gets when she has to pay me. I only asked her for the portion of the split because she asked me to split the cost in the first place.

    We argued back and forth and then she came up with a list of things we should not have to split and anything else we would split. So I started keep track of things that I paid for that were to be split between us. So she gave me her list and what I owe her, not a lot, I owe her $80. But when I gave her my list and her share, she now owes me $425.

    rduncang OP She eventually got arrested because she kept skipping the scheduled meetings with the investigators and has since been charged with 3 felonies and has to go to court.

    Catalessimo. I'm guessing this is the last time you're paying for your ex to come on vacation with you?
  • 15
    rduncang OP. If she comes back around and cuts the I'd invite her on another trip. The kids like it when we do things as a family.

    [deleted] Start the spread sheet. I would take pictures of every receipt and itemize every expense. Time to be petty. This reminds me of some couple I have been on double dates one

    where they were discussing who ate more chicken wings, and what percentage of the bill each should pay down to the quarter. Of course not to be out done me and the hubby had to argue over our bill and at the last
