Thx. I do feel a little better having slept on it overnight.

Yes, the divorce was a mess. Since I used my savings, it's still considered shared money since we "share" everything in a marriage. It's considered equal distribution. We had the house evaluated and we were under water. So ideally he should have paid me out my share of the house, but since we were underwater (if we were going to sell) we wouldn't have made anything. As a result, he didn't need to pay me anything. He had to refinance and is in a worse situation bc the house still isn't worth what we purchased it for...and the mortgage fees have gone up...but I walked away without owing anything...and he's tied down with the mortgage payment. Still totally sucks. My parents remind me all the time I got screwed over- and that doesn't help either. Not sure how I get over this bitterness especially with this renting issue now...it's one big headache.
