[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Alimony is for the pathetic . Support yourself. Gravy train is over. Don’t you have any pride?[/quote]
....said the angry disgruntled exDH. [/quote]

Actually I’m a happily married working woman who takes full responsibility for my own financial life. And manages to be an excellent mom at the same time. There are a million of us out there, and a million of us on these boards.[/quote]

Well you aren't that bright, the op has worked for the business for most of the marriage. She probably didn't take a wage as the business was their family income and if she didn't do it, he would have had to pay someone else a wage and benefits to do the same thing.

Marriage is a partnership. The Op hasn't sat on her butt all day and done yoga. She has contributed, so alimony is fair.

The OP says she worked for the business but her DH probably doesn’t see it that way. Occasionally filling in for an absent employee is not building a business. She was either at home OR a building the business but probably not both.  I’m surprised so many SAHM are convinced his will never happen to them .9
Or that they will just get back into the workforce whenever they want just because they attend some
Conferences and keep up their skills.[/quote]
