Divorce Mood
Wednesday, June 18, 2008

When I relocate back to my families, I will set the divorce in action.  She originally said she wanted to try and do all the number stuff by ourselves without the lawyers.  She originally said, she was going to want alimony until she graduated school and then after that it will be my call.  I prepared a spreadsheet and e-mailed to her for her review and any corrections, if necessary.  She flipped out and was like, "I will wait to the lawyers figure it out."  I am taking she is in a foul/bad mood.

    Your stbx puts knots in my stomach. I can't imagine what she is doing to yours. Stress does aggravate MS symtoms. She knows this, right?

    Please be careful you do not need the stress try yoga it does work. I would use the lawyers that will help keep it a little calmer if you do not have direct contact

    Good Luck Ange

    Just my two cents worth. Do you have to pay allimony? I'd be super careful not to get locked into paying anymore than you absolutely have to. Sure, its great to try to keep stuff away from lawyers. But BOTTOM LINE IS THIS, if you let your emotions dictate your decisions now about any future financial issues, especially major ones,that affect YOU and your financial longetivity, that may be a deal breaker for you later on, with wanting to do anything for you, or another lady you meet down the road.

    Why couldn't you and your wife get a lawyer and agree not to contest things............I for one, get tired of seeing people being taken advantage of. There was allimony written into my divorce, and sure it would be nice to have that money, but I've not asked for a dime, because I really don't need it. If I had it would have been blood money, just to prove a point to my ex. In long run, Karma will turn around back on him and his new wife.

    GET A LAWYER, someone good, talk to some of your friends. A divorce is no simple issue, and too many times, everyone wants to give you their advice, but divorce affects TOO MANY ISSUES DOWN THE ROAD, that you are not even really thinking about. Our emotions are so out of whack, that trying to make any major financial decisions, needs to be made with someone that knows, understands and cares about what is best for you, your family and the future. And if you have to, I'd get someone cut throat...............just my two cents worth. With a woman and man, at the end, when emotions are peaking, things can get really crazy, and you want someone on your side, that will fight hard, and is SMARTER THAN YOUR OPPONENT.

    Take care ok.
