Why Do Most Men Not Pay Child Support After Divorce?

The Story

Hello,
I want to raise a topic that is purely human and moral and I guess it concerns a lot of divorced women.
Three years ago, I divorced my child's father because of another woman. He had an affair with an unmarried woman of 26. Our child was then three years old - a boy. After the divorce, my husband stayed with his girlfriend. They still live together today, but have no children. We did not have a common home.
My child and I moved to live with one of my aunts, who is a retired widow (former teacher) but has never had children. She invited us. She is a good and intelligent woman. She helps me and so far we understand each other well. My parents live in a small town and in view of the work and development of my child I cannot move there to live. They are extremely decent people and help me in any way they can. I have a younger brother who works abroad and is not yet married. Next year my son will be in first grade and I hope he will start successfully.
My ex is on good terms. I accepted his choice not to live with me and the fact that he fell out of love with me. It was not easy for me, however, but the pain was overcome.
We agreed to pay child support of BGN 140 per month. In those three years, he has never paid me my son's full support. He gives me BGN 50 on hand every month and once a week he sees the child and takes him to McDonald's. I don't stop him. He can see our son whenever he wants. I don't set the child against him, I don't hate him. I don't waste money on his head and I don't seek his support in court. I rely on his conscience. I only asked him why he didn't pay my full alimony. He answered me - so much I can, so much I give you. I have not repeated more. I have collapsed financially several times, but I have not bothered him. All the bills in my aunt's apartment, I took them. She has a very small pension, and their expenses for medicines. My salary is purely BGN 932, I have a university degree, but it doesn't matter.
For these three years, the ex never took her child to the sea or the mountains, although he went with his girlfriend. He never took out money to organize his birthday, he never asked if he needed anything special, and his child was absent when. He grows up a nice and healthy boy, he is not slimy and despite his age he understands the situation. There are times when I lose my temper and cry.
I didn't go looking for men to sponsor me. For these three years I have not had a relationship with a man, because I have been interested in men who want only sex, but not a normal human relationship, with all its pros and cons. I'm not an animal to be a cup of hotel rooms for a dinner. I can do without sex, and I'm not ready to be anyone right now.
A case like mine is not isolated. It turned out to be a widespread practice. The courts are clogged by the village for very small sums.
Purely psychologically, I can't explain why this happens. What prevents men from paying small alimony for their own children? At least I don't have an explanation.
Thank you, I just wanted to share
