My marriage story (1 Viewer)

Going to try to keep this as short and to the point as possible

2 years ago I was 28. I had a good job making almost a grand a week at a busy restaurant. I had been single nearly 5 years so tried online dating again

I met an 18 yo girl from long island. Im from the bronx. We chat for a few weeks. Skype and all that.

Eventually she came over to spend a weekend. That weekend turned in to living with ne for 7 months. Prior to this I was suicidally lonely and a heavy drinker.

After 7 nonths I ask her to marry me and we did it at the courthouse the next week. I was on cloud 9

A month in to the marriage she tells me she is pregnant. While she lived with me she would go back to LI every other week to see her mom.....she was also sleeping with her ex bf and 2 other guys so she admits to me she doesnt know who the father is ( this is the one thing im grateful for....that she admitted it to me).

First thing I told her is to go back to LI, we are getting a divorce and she should get an abortion.

Ibmope around for a couple weeks and a guy comes to my door serving me divorce papers. Her mother hired an attorney

In the papers im being sued for everything. Legal fees and child support. She even made claims that I hit her because in NYS any marriage under 6 months has to end in fault. I tried to reach her but she cuts off all contact with me

Almost 2 months later I call and she answers her phone. In the brief conversation she tells ne she got an abortion. Im relieved.

Almost a year later, still no court date set I get a call from arizona child services.she moved to arizona and She gave birth to a boy a month ago and they have him because she shook him breaking 9 of his ribs and im legally assumed to be the father and they want me to take him

I inform them of everything and they order a paternity test. This is around march of last year. It takes til this august to get the results and itbturns out im not the father

Oh before I forget.....right after we broke upi was so depressed I started drinking even more and started smoking crack and snorting heroin. I blew through over ten grand in 3 months on drugs. I got so strung out I wound up in a psych ward for 2 weeks and lost my job

Now im broke and cant make rent. My lease ran out 6 months before and I was month to month. I kicked everything cold turkey with the help of xanax to get me through the first 2 weeks

A friend suggestedni go tp rehab because when im discharged they will find me a place to live. So I go for 21 days and now a year later im still living in a halfway house ( its so gross. Im white sobits even worse)

But now that I havebthe DNA results her lawyer changed the paperwork and she is the one at fault for adultery. Once I get the paperwork im out of this mess scott free.

I have a new girl, joined a new band and recently got my CDL-B license and im happier than iver been

But yeah im an idiot

 
Props to getting through it and coming out with a positive outlook. More than likely its all uphill from there.

 
That doesn't sound so bad. :shrug:
I'm actually surprised the OP got out of child support after the paternity test. In many cases, paternity doesn't matter, "best interests of the child" are that someone pays and the court only cares about who they can find. Plenty of dudes end up supporting kids that are known not to be their own.

 
( its so gross. Im white sobits even worse)
Not easy being white
Not when you essentially live in a cell block with 20 black guys fresh out of prison.

I nearly got in to a fight my first day. A few incidents here and there but I never back down and its calmed down so either I earned some respect or they just think im a crazy white boy who might flip out and burn the place down

I have been robbed twice though for over $200 total

Wat? They must not have the same legal representatives as FC jr

Really? Her lawyer took it out of the paperwork. Im not on the birth certificate. If she had still pursued it I could have had to pay for a child that isnt mine?

How does this happen?

 
You learn from mistakes. I say go slow with this new gal because you have been through such a mess, have had addictions which without you being aware of it, you may become "addicted" to being with someone as your sense of worthiness and/or happiness. Not having been in a relationship longer than 8 months, it may not be so out there to think you may now or later on see things as great when in fact they aren't. Everyone needs to be happy with themselves before they can be happy with another in the long run.

That's almost exactly what happened to me!... except I got a CDL-A license.

 
Wait.....could this child support thing come back to bite me one day because I was married to her at the time?

The DNA results are on the record with arizona family court

This isn't true. I hardly think the best interest of the child is giving it to a guy who is not the father and has never had any contact with the child, who further was lied to by the gal who said she wasn't going to have it. Much better off placing the child up for adoption if the mother is unable to care for the kid.

I'd probably have that record secured in a vault.

Also... dude... that's a messed up story. Glad you pulled through.

 
Great story, made me :lmao: especially the crack and heroin part.

No I am not an alias but I was a long time lurker til this week

 
Not exactly sure what you did so idiotic according to that story
well, some might argue that getting addicted to drugs and blowing through several racks isn't exactly mensa material.
Im very intelligent I just made some poor choices

I wasnt an addict I was temporarily self medicating because my world crumbled around me

Intelligent people are typically more likely to abuse drugs and studies have shown this

I inform them of everything and they order a paternity test. This is around march of last year. It takes til this august to get the results and itbturns out im not the father
That is a long time for paternity test results. I worked in DNA testing back in the 90s, and the only time it would sometimes take a tad longer than two weeks for results is if we were doing a motherless test. I'm sure the testing is even faster these days. Anyway, I feel bad for the child. I hope he ends up with some good people who will give him a safe loving home.

It took a long time to go through the courts. From the time I took the test til I got the results was two months because the judge had to inform me in court

I appeared by phone in all the arizona family court dates

Didnt say I was a genius but im certainly not a dummy......i just lack common sense in interpersonal relationships due to lack of experience

Having a bad year doesnt mean someone is a failure at life and needs to remove their dna from the gene pool

wanna put up a poll?

 
For the record I dont regret the drug use. If I didnt medicate myself it is very possible I would have taken my own life. They actually saved my life and in the end gave me some clarity

If you need to be that mean to a person sharing a personal story then by all means go ahead

You have my blessing
