So, my gf and I have been engaged for a little while, then I moved from the Chicago area to
Seattle in pursuit of a job. She was going to leave Chicago with her kids when our lease
expired at the end of June. After speaking to her ex a couple of months ago regarding the
modification of visitation, which he said he wasn't happy about it, but he'd do it, he turns
around and wants to go to court to try and get joint custody!!!
Mind you, this is a guy who is almost a year behind in child support, hides his income from
the IRS, and thinks nothing of blowing off visitations when it's convenient for him. I've
been supporting the kids since I moved in with her.
Meanwhile, we still have to be out of our Chicago house June 30. My gf is going to have to
stay with friends until this get sorted out. It could be a long time before she's able to
move.
Her attorney strongly advised us to get married right away, as this would make our case that
much stronger. So... we're getting married next week when I come back into town to move our
stuff. It's not really the way we wanted our wedding to be, but there you go.
