[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need to consult with a divorce attorney about alimony etc. But just chiming in to say I’m sorry. I will be in the same boat Re alimony if my DH and I ever separate.

But I also have psoriasis and it is awful taking a shower so your DH may not be exaggerating on that issue. Regardless, it’s frustrating for you that he smells and he should address that as a function of basic human decency.

Thanks so much. I've been putting off consulting with an attorney, but I think it's time.

I've tried so hard to be understanding about the psoriasis and showering...I've never even told him that he smells.  Even my son says that daddy "doesn't always smell that appealing." But I don't want to hurt his feelings, so I don't mention it.  I just try to push showers when it comes up naturally. I don't expect much.  But I honestly don't think he takes a shower more than once a month...heck, I've been home non-stop for 3 months now and I've heard the shower run once.  And it was really quick.  He says he takes "bird baths" and soaps up outside the shower, but either that's a lie or it's not enough.[/quote]
