Sorry, Papa, they do sound contradictory, don't they, and a tad exaggerated so let me start again.

He's socking away as much money as he can (not a bad trait to have, as I tend to live for today) but then complains that he's not going to be able to give support like he has been over the past 12 months. He purchased a used car as our oldest (19) needed his old car for college. The thing that bothers me is how he wants to walk away from the marriage with no financial ties/responsibilities. he wants to give me the house (which it's not that easy and not his to give me as the bank still owns it), but also wants me to take over all the bills since he's walking away from any profit that is to be made on the house when it comes time to sell. Thing is, I can't afford all the bills and the mortgage, yet he doesn't want me to sell until at least youngest (15) has graduated from high school. Yet anytime I try to even broach the subject of finances he gets all twitterpated and starts throwing out these resentful statements and crying poor.

Aye, yi, yi, I don't know what to do, say, think, feel anymore.
