    My ex husband divorced me three years ago. When we got married we agreed that we weren't going to have kids. I never wanted them, he said he didn't really want them. So yeah. Four years into our marriage he changed his mind, and he chose to divorce me

    because I wouldn't go back on our agreement and give him children. I'm not really a big believer in divorce. I was ready to be married for the rest of our lives. We had a good marriage, but I guess he didn't love me that much if he

    picked kids that didn't even exist over me. Right after our divorce he almost instantly remarried. He got his new wife pregnant right away, and they have two kids together.

    In the three years since then ive finished my higher education, and have accepted a high paying job in healthcare. Life has actually been pretty good for me, and I've gotten to the point where I think I'm ready to start looking to settle down.

    Yesterday morning my ex husband showed up on my doorstep crying. I figured something pretty awful must have happened so I let him in, and got him a drink. He started going on and crying about how awful his

    life is. He apparently hates his two kids, one of them is disabled and maybe autistic and he has no money due to the kid being so expensive. His wife yells at him all the time, she got fat after having kids and doesn't want to lose the

    weight, she never puts out, he can never go anywhere anymore. He said that he wants a divorce from his new wife, and he regrets ever leaving me. He asked if I would take him back, and said he learned his lesson.

    I couldn't help but laugh at him. It was so pitiful. His audacity also kind of astounded me. I told him that with two kids to support and his lack of loyalty he is not a catch, and I definitely won't take him back, and maybe this was karma for divorcing me.

    He was 1, called me an and said he thought I would be more supportive, and would at least turn him down nicely. AITAH?

    janexadorable • 22h ago You're not the . He made choices that led to his current situation, and it's not your responsibility to fix his life. Focus on your own happiness and let him deal with his own consequences.

    ElementalHelp . 22h ago What goes on in the heads of dudes like this that they think that they can break someone's heart, come back sobbing and pathetic years later, and that their ex- partners are going to be supportive? They genuinely never consider the feelings of anybody but themselves. NTA. Definitely be no contact with this guy.

    Longjumping_Desk3205 • 22h ago My ex tried to worm his way back into my life 3 years post-divorce. He was all sweet and apologetic. I told him, "If you want forgiveness, get on your knees and beg Jesus, because that's the only place you're getting it." He had two other marriages and seems happy with # 3. I'm definitely better off without him.

    KellonDeryck • 21h ago NTA You did not owe him any particular response other than being honest. His actions were cruel, and it's understandable that you might feel a sense of justice or vindication seeing him struggle. It's also valid to express your emotions when someone who hurt you comes back and asks for something you would never give.

    Hemenucha • 22h ago NTA. You know the old saying, be careful what you wish for, you just might get it. Well, he got what he wanted.
