Please don't get the wrong idea. I know that I can make it on my own. The job hunt is a little depressing because it is taking longer than I had hoped, but it will happen.I really don't want alimony even if I could get it. Once this is over I want it to be over. We get along fine and have just moved our relationship to a different level. Roommates. Nobody cheated, nobody's angry, it's just time to move on. We don't want or believe in the same things anymore.Yes, I am worth every penny he has spent on me but I am not interested in having him continue to "take care of me" after I start working and making money.
I want out as soon as possible, not because he is pressuring me or being mean to me, he's not. I just want to start my new life.
Alimony won't be an option actually - since you are able to work, and it hasn't been that long since you didn't. why not look at renting a room in a home somewhere until you can save up enough to get a place of your own?
I'm a family law attorney
