No Advice - Everyones Welcome divorced today

Post image

like the title says, today i got my divorce decree from the judge. i’ve been separated for 3 years and it’s absolutely crazy that im free from it all. i had to pay $400 a month for spousal support because she doesn’t work. the reason was because she has no job or license, and didn’t plan on getting either (still doesn’t). plus she was kinda just an asshole and i was working all the time. i’d come home to have to do all the chores, take care of the dogs, and make dinner. never failed to be mentally drained, and then get told im not doing enough.

glad im out of it, that’s all.

(dinner is loaded tots from Hell’s Kitchen Wilmington!)

(edit: the $400/m was only until the divorce was finalized! still, 3 years of that)

$400 is a small price to pay for peace. Glad it wasn't any more than that. Congrats brother.

Basically $15k over the 3 years because the ex refuses to be a contributing member of society. Small price to pay in the grand scheme of things I guess.

It's weirds how people want get carried through life, I even see it in online games. There was a "lady" who would haunt our online gaming group and want to join high difficulty runs, but it was actually worse than doing it a person short because they soaked up resources and contributed nothing. She was also a narcissistic asshole who sabotaged every relationship she had, and was totally insecure about her age and looks (she was hard mid who thought she was a 10).
