[quote=Anonymous]SAHM going through an unwanted divorce here. Don’t do it, please don’t do it. Mine convinced me to stay home because it “just wasn’t worth it” to juggle his travel-intense job with mine. The logic and financials were sound and I was a great SAHM. I kept asking to rearrange our lives to get me in a place to go back to work, but every 6 months it was “let’s just get through this next push until I land this client”, or wait until his next evaluation and raise, or wait until the so-and-so role opens up. OP, I kid you not, I helped this boy-man get to a place where he has a choice of two huge internal promotions, set to start 8 weeks after he decided between them. 2 weeks before his new role start date and presumably sometime after he had received his price for his deferred compensation, he filed for divorce without warning and told me via email that I’d be served the next day. Assets split. Future income doesn’t. If you’re not at your max earning and he’s not as his max earning potential right now, get back to work right away before it’s too late. Don’t set him up for future opportunity and security at the expense of yours. I’ll never forgive myself for trusting my STBX.[/quote]
