My husband and I have been married for 19 years this June. We have 4 children;16, 14, 12, and 11. My husband and I were declared the most romantic couple our minister had ever married, yet the last 10 years have been nothing but business. We have always supported each other's dreams and have always had the understanding that we would not stand in the way of the other's happiness. Resently he has asked me for a divorce. He is a very educated savy Plastic Surgeon who views money as power and does not part with it easily. I view money as securety. We live in a 50/50 state. He is being very fair in the division of property, but allomony is the issue. I have a degree in speech-language pathology, but gave up my licence and haven't used it in over 3 years so I can devote time to our children. Additionally, I have been overseeing a medi-spa and salon we jointly own. He runs his own practice and operating room in the same building as the spa. We also own the building. I'm okay with going outside of my ideal zone, but I also don't want to rollover. He's okay with 1 yr rehabilitative support. Regardless, my life and life style will never be the same. How do I find a fair balance when romance has been derailed?
