What was the most fucked up thing your ex did after you broke up?

I finally left my ex-husband after almost a decade of physical and emotional/verbal abuse. Just within that first year, he:

  • Called my 80+ year old grandmother and made up some story that I'd had an affair and left him for another man

  • Changed the locks on the house so that I couldn't get any of my things

  • Hid for weeks so that he couldn't be served with legal papers

  • Claimed he "disposed of" the desktop computer where I feared he had been looking at material that wasn't so legal

  • Lied about his suicidal nature and about his having depression (He finally admitted to the depression later, but not the suicidal behavior)

  • Lied and said that all of the times he physically abused me were in self defense (Which was interesting, because one of the times he punched me in the back while I was walking away from him)

  • Lied about the reason for his unemployment (He claimed it was the economy crash, in reality he had quit 12+ jobs in just a 4-year period. He didn't want to work. Ever.)

  • Lied about anything and everything to get custody of our small child

  • Would call me just to tell me that my child was asking for me and wondering why I wasn't there

  • I'd call to speak to my child and he'd hang up the phone less than 30 seconds later.

  • Had an affair with a woman he met on Christian Mingle (Oh, the irony), introduced the woman to our child less than two weeks after our divorce and told them that she was their new mommy

  • Didn't pay a cent of the $3,500 in credit card debt of mine that he was assigned to pay in exchange for keeping my car, thus destroying my credit.

  • Lives rent-free with his mommy but claims he pays $500 a month in rent so that the court would think he can't afford child support. For evidence, he provided a lease...signed by his mother.

I could go on and on, but it just pisses me off. I've since remarried and life is wonderful, so fuck him.
