They don’t have assets or property or joined accounts Rose and marriage lasted only a year and a half but I agree that protecting oneself and ones money is so important in divorce. Especially when there is animosity

Disgruntled ex spouses do bizarre things. When my husband was still going though divorce, in few months his ex purchased a car and racked up huge dental bills. Since she had no job she expected him to pay and demanded it in court. Judge ordered her to return the car back to dealer. And ordered her being responsible for dental bills because it was done during divorce proceedings.

Recently, years after their divorce and us being together for over 6 years we found out that she used OUR address (2 hours drive from where she lived and she obviously never lived here!!!) to obtain things like car insurance quotes etc and she was putting our address as hers on different things. And it’s years later.

It caused my husband panic attacks after we started opening crazy mail coming to our place addressed to her!!!

To be sure I’d check credit reports regularly, it’s free and it would give peace of mind. If hopes husband used his wife’s money without permission (stealing) quite few times , I’d not be surprised if he fraudulently opened credit cards or such.
