after D-day Deadfish: Ok, so me and my ex have been divorced for a week now. She emailed me tonight and said that she's coming over tomorrow to discuss our credit card stuff. We only have $2000 on the credit card, but I never used it for anything, so I KNOW I only have like maybe $50 of my stuff on it. Would it be dangerous to try to weasel out of paying HALF of the credit card bill? I thought it might be easier just to pay half and be done with it. But on the other hand, if most of the expenses are HERS, then I don't wanna cough up all that money for nothing! I just don't wanna raise hell over this  :(
Re: after D-day Roseville: Deadfish,

In my opinion, I say just pay half and be done with it.  I know you don't want to spend the money, but generally if you live in a 50/50 state, you'd have to split the debt anyways, regardless of who actually initiated it. 

If you want this over and done with, just pay it, if you want to fight with her, then I'd say don't.  Maybe the two of you can sit down and work out something like 80/20 or 70/30 or something?

Re: after D-day Deadfish: Yeah, I guess it would be easier and faster just to pay half. Dangit.  :-\
Re: after D-day LostTeacher: i would say just pay the half too.
sometimes the money is not the big deal, and like you said...if it's only $1000 for your share, that is really a small price to be paid to finish your debt with one another.  it's just one thing that you don't have to worry about after it's done.
