I was reading a story the other day where a man was suing his ex wife for child support and claimed that he was only making $2,500 per month when in fact he made more. In the year 2000, this man made over $50,000 and then in the past eight years he has claimed almost nothing. He quit his job and has done literally nothing in eight years….well apart from marrying well. He runs his own business plus he was working for his wife’s family. His real reason behind asking this woman for money is for vengeance. The ex wife is doing better for herself — better than when they were together.
Let me preface this by saying, everyone should take care of their children and no one should be exempt from paying child support... if it really to help the child. But when it is not and the child is being used by one parent to get back at the other....it is wrong and they should be stopped.
What drives this sort of obsession? The man in the story had remarried and his wife makes over $100,000 per year. They have more than enough money to raise one child. The ex wife pays her share of insurance, clothing and entertainment for the child and she had single handedly raised their two children by herself until the oldest one moved out and the other turned 12 years old.
This is surely a case of someone who has not learned to let go. How many times do you see divorce tear people apart because they cannot get past the hurt. It is imperative that we all learn to let go…you don't want to try to talk another person into staying with you, loving you, calling you, caring about you, coming to see you, or staying attached to you. Stop it-----just let it go!
When people can walk away from you let them walk. Your destiny is never tied to anybody that left even if you have kids together---Just let it go!
People leave you because they are not joined to you. And if they are not joined to you, you can' t make them stay. ----- Let them go!
And it doesn't mean that they are a bad person or you are a bad person, it just means that their part in the story is over. And you have to know when people's part in your story is over so that you don't keep trying to raise the dead. You have to know when it's dead. You have to know when it's over. Let me tell you something You have got to learn the gift of good-bye.
If God wanted you to stay together for life it would have happened----Just let it go. Stop begging your ex wife for attention, let that old boyfriend, old girlfriend go, the relationship is over….so just….Let them go!!
You are truly hanging on to something that that doesn't belong to you and was never intended for your life ..LET IT GO!!!
We all know that the past can hurt if you keep holding on to it……LET IT GO!!!
So he/she has angered you by being successful…..LET IT GO!!!
And you are holding on to some thoughts of evil and revenge ..LET IT GO!!!
Your old relationship is not holding you down ...you are holding yourself down, just LET IT GO!!!
It is not his/her fault that your life has not gone in the direction you wanted it to go, you have a choice so just -----LET IT GO!!!
Having a bad attitude will not change a thing, you need to live your life and let him/her live his/hers ... LET IT GO!!!
You keep making derogatory comments about him/her to people but they all know that you are bitter so...LET IT GO!!!.....They are laughing at you behind your back!
Let the past be the past. Forget your former relationships. Turn over a new page and make your own circumstances. Life is too short for you to spend it obsessing over one person who could really care less about you…..LET IT GO!!!
Think about it , "who is the only person that can make the change you want to see in your life"……YOU…..so just do it and let all of the bad feelings go!
