[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I regret it every day, but I got blindsided and  didn't have a choice – I was told I was being divorced so he could pursue other options.  He got everything he wanted.  I suspect he has regrets once a month when he puts through the alimony, but that's about it.  [/quote]

Same boat. Devastating for me. Mild financial regret for him but only because he’s a miser. That check is nothing but a rounding error and temporary.[/quote]

I'm the PP. I'm sorry. It's awful. It felt like the bottom fell out of my world and I was knocked completely flat. It was barely a hiccup for him. I'll never understand it, but I'm slowly learning to be okay with that.[/quote]

Yes. Every word you wrote could be mine. It was like he filed and never thought about it again. He’s still confused to the point of mildly annoyed that the kids are/were upset. He sees it as a decision that was made and done that he has already moved past the day he filed. I live with his unilateral decision and the consequences of the promises he broke to me every day.

I’m still stunned by the ability of the financially advantaged party to just leave with more money and future opportunity and I no longer believe in marriage, marriage vows, or that marriage offers any true legal protections.[/quote]
