There isn't a person alive that hasn't felt that way. Neat thing is, life is ever changing, never stays in one place. Just wait it out sweets, you never know what today will bring.
Has to be flesh? Nope. My best girlfriend for 3 years now, is only online. Never met her, love her. Big friendship love. Does she have to be within smacking distance of me? Nope.
If you proclaim to love someone you've only met online, can't you "love" things about them? Isn't that love?
If I talk to someone strictly online that I know I'll NEVER meet, should I not talk to them because it can never be "rule book" love? Hardly.
1. You're totally goofy for letting her stay with you if she's wronged you before and obviously irresponsible. Help, yes. Be codependent, no.
2. Keep track of your money! I think it's a guy thing. If I have 37 cents in my purse, I know exactly where it's at and what coins. My ex would lose a $20 on a daily basis.
IMO, stereotypically, I think men are more thoughtless. Meaning not putting much weight into the same things women do. And/or doing or saying something not intentionally hurtful, but hurtful nonetheless.
BUT, women are most certainly more cruel. Our thoughtlessness is meticulously planned out and premeditated. Just plain catty. ;)
Geez, I'll be back here all day remembering stuff.
STOP using your address of residency on ANYthing. Even court documents and service papers. It's not required. You can use your parents or friend's addy, or get a POBox for $30 a year.
In Ohio, a noncustodial parent has to file through the courts to get the address of residency of their own children.
This might be the wimpy route to go, but I took the wimpy route. Screw the money, screw him, leave it alone. I'm sure you'd pay $50 for some peace of mind right now. $50 will barely feed a kid for a week.
I know you deserve any nickel out of him, but at some point, a comfortable life has GOT to come first.
In the meantime...all the above. I hope you phoned the police after the threat was made. Although I'm with Dix, don't count on them.
If you're antigun, at least have some mace stashed in several places.
Let surrounding neighbors vaguely know the situation so they can watch out for you.
AND by all means, plan for the worst as stupid as it sounds. Is there a back door to bail out of should he show up. Pound the hell outta the walls if you're in an apartment. Stay off the phone and radio low while you're driving, pay attention to who's driving beside you. Don't even go Krogering alone.
Been in your place, I feel for you, just be vigilant.

RE: Great place for it to be, let's see who actually checks this out.
Okaaaaaaaaaay...I believe your original post started out, "A question for all."
Clarification: Typos are a nonissue to ME!
Bummer that your spell check function fails to correct capitalization, puncuation, and grammatic errors.
Save the flaming.
