You stood up for yourself and I commend you for that Mykaa.
Its never easy and feelings get hurt but life is not always a walk in the park.
You have to suck it up and go on come hell or high water.
My first wife told me she would take me for everything but I won everything even custody of my daughters 10 and 5.
Mine got the clothes on her back and I was nice enough to give her a van that was on its last legs.
