This.  
My spouse is a lawyer and could very easily work.  We sent the kids to daycare even though he was staying at home.  He still gets alimony and child support.

Good for him. The law is the law.[/quote]

It feels unfair, but I don’t really care.  I would give up nearly everything I have to be able to live my life without him.  His not getting a job was a small part of the overall issue.  He just never saw us as a team.  [/quote]

Yet you didn't find it divorce worthy offense and stayed married hence the alimony. [/quote]

I did find it divorce worthy and I did get divorced.  Hence the alimony.  [/quote]

I think the PP means, that you allowed this to continue "for years" before divorcing.[/quote]

It takes a few years to decide to divorce.  You think things will get better, then you try to make it better, then you go to counseling.  It takes a couple of years.  [/quote]
