So my ex taking alimony despite doing nothing but sitting around the house and playing video games all day for 10 years is fair? You don't know everyone's situation or why they view it as their money.
And when I say "doing nothing but sit around and play video games for 10 years," I genuinely mean that. Wouldn't get a job, never did housework, I always had to come home from a 10-hour day and clean up the house because she said she would and didn't.
Maybe not all of your ideaz are winners, Rachel.
Why did it take you 10 years to get a divorce? Why did you get married? Sounds like you paid for her for 10 years and didn’t force her to work. How would the court know you didn’t force her to stay home and not work?
Divorce laws are designed to keep the status quo - you paid for her to do nothing for 10 years, and that’s the lifestyle you collectively agreed and provided.
Now you’re mad you have to sleep in the bed you made?
Right, I forgot it's super easy to leave an abusive relationship. Eat shit.
Did the court not agree with you that it was an abusive relationship?
