Me and my ex-wife met in new Orleans about 10 years ago and she had a 2 year old girl, Me and her moved in with one another and got marred a year latter she got arrested for shoplifting and placing the goods on my step daughter, She told me that it was a mistake and I believed her.
We moved to Arkansas and a few years latter she was maxing out credit card that I didn't even know she had gotten in my name, as the bills piled up I got more and more distant from here until 2 years ago she was busted for shoplifting again and I discovered she was also having an affair.
Anyway , I had divorce papers delivered to her within a week, I thought she would be finished with shoplifting and decided to let her have main custody of our two children because I didn't wont to split them from their half sister and my ex-wife was better at helping them with their school work.
After the divorce she was arrested 2 more times for shoplifting in the last year, and has the kids on welfare insurance refusing to use the insurance I have, (Note)= I don't think she could of got that welfare insurance if the state know the kids were already on insurance))
Now to whets wrong now,
I met a girl that I like and had her move in with me, she is very nice and has a clean background, and I get my kids every other weekend and wish I had them more often. I also like this girl very much but don't want to be forced to get marred just so my kids can keep visiting, I'm thinking that I may have to take it to court but im not sure how the court will look at it.
On one hand theirs me= I'm a police officer and have been at the same address sints the divorce and at the same job, but have a girlfriend who lives with me.
On the other hand, theirs my ex-wife= she's had 3 different address in 2 years being evicted out of two places. has moved the kids school 4 times in 2 years and is on her 3rd different job, as well as being arrested 2 times for shoplifting and her and my son are not allowed in sears at the mall, sears told me that they got my son with a stolen backpack and 4 DVD's but they didn't press charges because after talking to him and her they believed that my ex-wife had given him the stolen stuff and sent him out of the stor.
I want to have my own life without my ex-wife getting involved
I want to keep the visitation with my kids and I want to be able to have my new girlfriend live with me with out someone trying to force me into a marriage.
