[quote=Anonymous]Yes.  Get a screenshot.  I still have one from my husband's infidelities a couple years ago. I did leave, after 16 years of marriage.  I, too, am a SAHM, after more than two decades in the workforce.  I DO receive alimony, but only until my youngest goes to college.  Plus, we had more savings, which was divided based on what he earned after we married.  I did not take half since he agreed to pay for kids' college and other educational expenses (anything having to do with school).  He actually pays for more than he has to (kids' friends birthday presents and the like).  He did marry affair partner but tried to stay with me initially.  I just couldn't live with it.  It's hard.  No two ways about it.  His new wife has kids from her previous marriage....and my kids stay over sometimes since we have joint custody.  I DID get tested for STDs (clean, phew).  I DID speak with a lawyer to figure out what I was entitled to even though we handled the final stuff through mediation.  I kept the house (and the remaining mortgage which can be covered by alimony). He moved to a new home (he bought a new house nearby).  I am sorry.  It's awful and horrible for the kids (yes, my younger daughter discovered pictures on her iPad.   Sending a hug.  This is the time to let friends be there for you.  [/quote]
