[quote=Anonymous]OP I’m sorry you are dealing with this situation. But it doesn’t really sound like you are truly dealing in reality right now.

It sounds like no matter what you need to think about getting a full-time job - doesn’t sound like the marriage is sustainable. Huge red flag that a counselor honed in on “a minor addiction” and your husband has a history with escorts. It’s not a marriage that is going to last And frankly, I’m not sure you can count on your husband to even be a higher earner in 10 years. He’s got some issues.

You need to start earning some more income and if you get divorced, no matter your husband salary is (you say he makes 10 times as you, so assuming we’re not talking about a billionaire here), it’s not going to be enough to keep you from the workforce for the rest of your life. You need to realize this. You can’t depend on child support even if it’s very generous, because at some point that ends and if you find yourself at 50 with no work history you are screwed.

Quit focusing on dumb things like social life and stigma, and start thinking about the financial reality. Sorry if that sounds harsh, but this kind of post is the reason Motherhood is the number one predictor of poverty.

So many sweeping red flags here and now is the time to start addressing them like the grown-up that you are![/quote]
