We had no contact for the next several years, until he was undergoing a divorce from a woman he had been married to for less than 2 years. During the marriage, he bought a house in both their names. So, during the separation until it could be determined who would get the house, they lived in it together. He was afraid she would accuse him of raping or hitting her and her two kids to get more money, so he asked me if I would come back to his state (which I had left to escape my family), to live with him as a witness in the house. I said no, as I did not want to put myself in that situation again. He knew I was in the midst of filling out loan apps for grad school and offered to pay for my graduate school tuition and housing for the entire period and buy me a car in exchange for being a witness. I came back to his state to help him, and gave up a job offer I had been given out of state to do so. i was accepted to the grad program and he called the school to confirm he would pay. I believed him because he was currently paying my brother's medical school tuition and my sisters nursing tuition, and I expected that since he had paid my undergrad, he would do the same for my masters. The original agreement was one month, one month turned into two and then three as he kept telling me he needed me longer. I cooked and cleaned for him, ran errand all day all for no pay except the free rent, which his two disgusting stepkids were getting for doing nothing. He began physically assaulting me again and i ended up in the ER with a suicide attempt. I was released after the minimum holding period, diagnosed with depression due to family abuse/circumstances with no medication and just psychotherapy followup. I found out last month in researching their divorce at the courthouse, that he committed perjury by claiming on his financial affidavit to the courts that he was paying 30,000 a year for my tuition despite the fact that he never paid and I never got to go to school.
