My ex-h and his OW are utterly nasty, goady c***s for doing this...

[TheFormidableMrsC]

Haven't name changed, probably should have given huge backstory...however, tell me I am unreasonable? My ex-h turned up today with a private plate on his new Audi displaying his, OW's, her son's and our son's initials. He pays less than £4 a day in maintenance as he pleaded poverty and only last week refused to pay £14 for two new school jumpers for our DS. He is an utter cunt, isn't he?

< £4 a day, wow what a guy!

Just awful that you have to deal with these toxic people.

When all is said and done you can hold your head high knowing you did the best for your son that you could. Mr Audi driving twat face won't have that luxury. Whenever you see or hear of something which they do that presses your buttons just remember that.

There you go MrsC a more appropriate plate for W and Pineapple Pauline

HolaWeenie, do you know I wouldn't mind if it weren't for the fact that they lead a very ostentatious lifestyle, he clearly doesn't go without endless food and drink, the house is large, expensive cars, horses etc. Yet he feels that that is sufficient to support his DS given my difficult financial circumstances. However, this is the man who cut us off financially in every way possible before he'd even told me he was leaving...oh and cancelled my car insurance in the middle of the night so that I couldn't take the kids to school/nursery. He is just vile, he really is. I never ever imagined he would behave like this. It was also his endless financial fuckwittery which saw him walk out of court with zero. He put himself and her before ensuring our sons security, that makes him utter lowlife as far as I am concerned. OW loves it that I am benefit dependent, she is equally malicious. However, you are right, I know that I can hold my head up high, he can't even look me in the eye.

Fourquenelles...that's made my Monday, thank you!!

Well we all know money can't buy class.

Sounds like your ExP and Ow are well suited

Some people are so predictable, they become walking parodies of themselves.

ExH has managed to dodge the CSA for the last few months (he did so successfully for years; they forced him to pay for a few months, then bam, change of contract with the exact same employer and they've lost him again). Yesterday he very ostentatiously gave DD(8) £10 pocket money and she thinks Daddy is rich and generous. I'm not going to disillusion her because she has few enough illusions about him as it is. Let her have one positive thing about daddy.

Get another plate done, tell him you've bought it as they mispelled the last one. It should read C.U.N.T.

It's just another sign of his WT-ishness and stupidity. Does he not realize what people think of someone who lives an ostentatious lifestyle when their children live one less so? He's too fucking stupid to realize that it reflects badly on him if he's driving a flashy car and living in a big house whilst his ex-wife and children are struggling.

But brains were never his strong suit, were they? The only smart thing he ever did was pick you, and he wasn't smart enough to keep you, was he?

Sounds like my ex son in law .. His new partner bought number plates for their top of the range Audis with Mrsxxx1 and Mrxxx2, defaulted on maintenance and left my daughter with no money for her 3 girls for a year having received a 200k plus inheritance until CMS made him pay maintenance and he wonders why his oldest daughter of 11 doesn't want to see them, sounds like his twin! The best thing is she met a man later on who was the opposite of her ex and she is so happy and so am I, the cheating twat will one day get his come uppance when the other 2 see him for what he is, the damage he has done to his 3 children giving them nothing and moving 200 miles away has made sure of that. I feel your pain but you will come through trust me, my daughter did and the fact she didn't have to put up with the narc for another 15 years or so makes me happy, it nearly killed me seeing my gc's angst it truly did .. We all came through in the end!

Thanks everybody for lovely (and the v. funny) posts! Yet more tales of crap fathers come forth...it's just shocking really.

Across

Kidsarekids...what a crap story but a lovely ending for your DD. It must be so tough to witness as a parent. Thank you for your kind and reassuring words. I am so glad your daughter is happy again .

I have calmed a bit and will get on with the legalities, it's the only thing he understands it seems. As for OW, if she wasn't prepared to accept that my DS would need ongoing support, she perhaps should have chosen got her claws into somebody single and childless. She'll learn the hard way eventually.

Meanwhile, I am off to order him a more appropriate plate . Thank you everybody, so very much!

How about...

those sort of relationships are not based on love and respect, they are based on money and what they can get.....when the money runs out there is nothing left.....so they move on.....sorry but i would rather be with someone who wants me for who i am not what i can buy him.....and your exs OW is gonna find out the hard way when all the money is gone and hes gone with it...you OP are so much better than these 2 halfwits....and eventually your ex will be all alone in the world, with nothing....he will get older and the women who think hes a catch now will be long gone .....and the older he gets the less attractive he will seem!

Oh God, MrsC, I'm afraid I'd be tempted to get the PIN34PL plate if I were you! That'd make both of them shit plaid rabbits, that would!

acat...OMG! That's absolutely brilliant! I wish I could... Across that is so funny!!!

Potato, I know that my ex-h covets "lifestyle" but has always been unwilling to put the work in, instead being jealous of everybody else. This is his perfect set up really. She is an utter mug, as indeed I was. I remember the heady and romantic days when he described me as his "pension". He still owes my Dad £12K. Still, I am sure that her parents can be his pension instead now .

Yes he's an absolute cunt

Start referring to ds by a completely different name as that's "the only one he now answers to", and tell him it's been changed by deed poll.

What an absolute pricking fuckard.

I'd so want to go and deface the number plate late one night

Ha ha bialystockandbloom....that's a plan. DS likes to make up all sorts of names, a recent one being "scunge" disclaimer, he invented it. I can tell you that would make for an unfortunate plate change .

EX-OW-OWDC-SCUNGE - has a definite je ne sais pas I think

Je ne sais quoi I meant!!

HA HA HA HA!! Love it!!!

Mondieu bialy...

I've always liked the name and title Sir Sponge-a-lot

Very apt donajimena...

I know we have made jokes about private number plates but the way you describe him really does match with all the stereotypical stories you hear (ego and attitude to money, the need to send some kind of message to complete strangers).

Of course the message they want to send is "Look at me! I'm successful" but they're really saying is "Look at me! I'm a KNOBHEAD"

It has been many, many years since I have used the word knobhead. It feels good.

SlowFJH, I think the "message" thing hits the nail on the head really. It totally screams "knobhead" but it is also interesting...because this is the 4th family he's managed to shoehorn his way into...clearly has a desperate need to validate it. However, he's a horrible person and that little boy lost his father in a dreadful accident, a very decent man who held an amazing job and who made his dislike of my ex-h clear. Yet here he is, he who hasn't got a decent bone in his body, slotting himself in that man's shoes, his home, his life and trying to make himself look like the big man by doing something like that, and it is something my son is not part of. In actual fact, everybody thinks he is a complete and utter prick
