Realistically though I think you should prepare yourself for the worst. Try not to be bitter about it. Remember, if he's making you ill then he's won anyway.
My ex left me with massive debts, which will take about another 10 years to clear completely. It took a long time to realise that if I was bitter about it the only person that hurt was me.
seeing as you've threatened to take him to court i would take that step if you go to your local county court you can get the paper work to issue a summons against him for recovery of the sum for around 50 quid. this sometimes is all that's needed and it might spur him onto paying some if not all the money. if he defends the action you will have to attend court and argue this out in front of a district judge this as daunting as it may sound and they're geared up to be quite user friendly. if you go down this route it depends on who the judge believes but if you have statements and text messages referring to money i believe you will be assured of getting some money back at least. if you don't like this course of action you could always send him a statutory demand without judgement threatening to make him bankrupt if he doesn't cough up within 28 days. this is a free method and may prove succesful.
