Man protests law requiring him to pay child support for another man’s child

I've wondered about this. I think the gold-digger's lawyer must be working for free and going to take their fees from the settlement? I pay my lawyer each week and she has a $2k retainer I had to pay to employ her. I've paid 20k so far.

Women are certainly odd about wealthy men. When I told my circle of family and friends that I was divorcing my husband (who makes 250k+) two people said if you don't want him, I'll have him. Despite knowing I had left him for two incidents of domestic violence. WTF. Also my husband has a high income but he's not really wealthy as he spends more than he makes. On things like electronics, cars, business class air travel, meals out. Can't get that money back.

A person I know got the pregnant girlfriend trick. He worked in the mines as an engineer. His sister (my friend) was pissed as she warned him. He thinks she feel pregnant by accident. We don't think so.

In my case, we can agree ourself (via lawyers) on the split of our assets or go to court. Court is very expensive so most people settled out of court. My husband is using his high salary (which of course is now his alone) to be controlling.

It's a year and my husband hasn't agreed to a single thing. I 'm stuck paying half our huge mortgage. I have to take him to court to make him sell (50k each in legal costs min). He won't settle no matter how good the offer. He says what he wants we agree then he changes what he wants. Normal income people would not waste their time paying lawyers to do this crap. I've spent 20k and it hasn't yet reached court.

Normal people (without emotional problems) would say lets split our things sensibly and limit costs. Rich can afford to play games.
