[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, straight infidelity did not affect it. But the incredible behavior of my ex, overall, did affect it. I have indefinite alimony.

But this is unusual. My ex is a sociopath, and we had a six-month child custody evaluation that finally shed light on him. The judge couldn't do the most important thing for me: sole physical custody. But he punished my ex financially in every way he could.

I call BS.

Judges don't "punish" people in civil divorce cases. They make decisions based on precedent, using defined formulas for compensation, and they above all don't make their rulings personal.

You're full of crap. [/quote]

Oh wow, I just came back here and saw this. I'm the previous poster, and I posted this a long time ago. All I can say is that I have indefinitely alimony. I don't know how much time you've spent in family law court, but judges most certainly do make all sorts of decisions that are not black and white. In fact, it's why divorce attorneys never want to go to trial because they don't know what judge they will get or what will ultimately happen. "You never know," they tell clients.

It was based on precedent, but the judge interpreted all the facts of the case and made his decision. He was able to take all sorts of things into account like life insurance, who gets the house, who paid for certain things and needed to be reimbursed, who worked (or pretended to work) while the other person stayed home to watch the kids. And many other factors like perjury and abuse.

I have indefinite spousal support. And it's a lot of money. My case was unusual, and I don't want to give others false hope, but it does happen. One of my best friends had a similar situation and she lives in Virginia.
