Just like your H, he hit a tree on the way back, about 4 hours away. We are still paying some medical bills (luckily most was covered by his insurance and his company covered some), 5k went down the drain, he got a new car we could not really afford and he rear ended someone very soon after, so our insurance rates are now triple what we used to pay for my car, a very modest Toyota.
And this jerk used to tell me how much I spend on driving school and how much I spent on the car.
So oh yes I feel ya!!!


Do you have problems with reading comprehension? Th daughter not her father crashed the car.


Sorry, I got too agitated because the situations are so similar. Now it turns out it might be a troll, which makes it even worse for me- my H is a champion in stupidity it seems.
Just like the dh in question, he thinks too much of himself.

Ah, troll, you've overplayed your hand now.


Yup. Too much. You didn't pay attention in creative writing 101

A two year old mercedes is not a good car for someone on a budget. it costs a lot to keep running. A two year old american car is a good deal...a focus for 10K, for example

I suggested a two-year old GLK. He said no.

He is just like all Americans -never wants to buy quality just what is "inexpensive." I like to have some nice things -and a ice Chris one -b/c I didn't have them growing up. DH had everything handed to him - private school, college etc. He really doesn't know what it is ,Ike to have to work really hard for something.

You say you grew up poor but are you now? Pull yourself together. Your daughter feels bad/guilty enough, she doesn't need you and her Dad fighting over this!


I Have sent hI'm several links for new cars, all of which he says are too expensive. He is so f**king cheap. Just wants to buy what he calls "safe, affordable transportation." He says he can get new sedan like a VW Jetta that is rated well for safety for about $16K and that is what he wants to spend. I showed him a listing for a used GLK for $22K and he says: he doesn't want an SUV, he doesn't want a Mercedes and he doesn'T want to spend more than $20K and that the GLK is not safety rated for a teen driver by the IIHS.

He is like his parents! Cheap they drove crappy American or Japanese cars.

Also, his Mom wrote me back saying I should have compassion for him, but I never get it from him or from his parents.


OK trolly troll....you already posted the above. Either you are a really bored and weird human being, drunk, or seriously need some meds!

Divorce him, but not over the accident. It's ok to be alone and not have to deal with an idiot DH.
It's not hard to learn how to drive ( I bet the car is automatic). He probably was blabbing too much and made her crash.
