Hi its taking alot of courage for me to post this.
I guess I should start with the basics. I am 46 years old and have been married for 26 years. We have two children 19 and 21, the eldest does not live at home. I am a stay at home mom. We decided early on that he would work and I would take care of the kids and home. Not exactly the way I pictured my life but he is forgein and would have it no other way. I'll always be grateful for the time I had with my kids while they were growing up. That was the good part, the kids, the rest of the marriage has been miserable. I wouldn't even know where to start and even if I did share the details I put up with it, so I am equally responsible for the unhappiness. I have no friends and one brother who I rarely speak to. Now that the kids are raised there is very little reason for us to stay together. I have battled depression for a number of years. I have slept on the couch forever so there is no intimacy. His verbal abuse has been getting worse by the day, any self esteem I had is dead and gone. He is miserable and so am I. I have never once been unfaithful to him, that was more for me than him, I just couldn't look in the mirror if I had. I have been applying for jobs even at minimum wage so I could leave but have had no luck. Guess its important to include he makes over a hundred thousand dollars a year. I think clicking on this link tonight has saved my life. I had no idea that he would have to pay spousal support, no idea whatsoever. It is almost like I have been given a new chance at life reading that. I don't know where to start with the divorce procedures any help even with the basics would be greatly appreciated, I don't even know the questions to ask. Thanks in advance for any advice.
