But I just learned that my ex-husband used a part of his divorce settlement (my money, basically) and bought his former mistress/now girlfriend an engagement ring. His cousin told me. We've been divorced for eight months. This stings.

WTF?!?!

His cousin is an asshole. Feel it then move on.

A total asshole. We were always friendly, but this felt like a rub. Feeling it and moving on for sure.

It’s a cheap way to get rid of him though.

I’d call it a deal.

How much was the ring?

OP - You do know that I realize all of this, right?

It’s his money.

OP - Funny thing is I kinda saw the ring thing coming. Sucks that I was right!!

It will end in less than 3 years. He will be miserable, broke and twice divorced.

It’s not your money. I get that it hurts, but don’t be silly.

I’m so sorry, OP. It’s so unfair. He sucks. And the ring is the only thing of value that she’s getting in this deal. Good riddance.

The mistress is the loser really. She’ll realize soon enough.

Well, it stings that he moved on so quickly, but with which money he bought the ring is immaterial. Money is money.

Sorry, op. He sucks.
