She might always look at that ring and think of you!
It’s really sad.

You got the better end of the deal OP!


$5 says OP’s ex was the breadwinner in their household.


Doesn’t really matter. Look I’d be drinking wine and laughing at those two. Shot gun wedding, baby. Let me know how that works out.

No she didn’t, she just didn’t get to keep all of the marital assets, which she undoubtedly felt entitled to since he cheated.

Some of you are way too pedantic and make people feel uncomfortable posting without stressing out about things being taking out of context.


She should not post things she does not want discussed. Leave it out next time, OP, if you really don't care about it.

OP - Don't know and don't care. But I was told that he used money from his divorce settlement. He may have tossed in a dime of his own.


So your ex never held a job or contributed a penny during your marriage?


+1. That's the part that doesn't make any sense. Say the ring was $10K, even if OP was the higher earner did he really not have $10K of his own earnings in the marital pot?


Yes that is what she is saying. He had no savings. How is that so hard to understand.

NP. I think what probably stings is the moving on so fast. The settlement is just the icing. OPs feelings are valid. Her ezDH sounds like a winner. Be glad he’s out of your life. May 2020 be your best year!

Well that bites, truly. I'd be annoyed and angry too.
