I know how good that feels. You are a VERY lucky man. Did she give up on tapping your retirement plan too?

Congrats. In November I will make the last of my "spousal maintenance" (Washington's equivalent of alimony) payments. There will be laughter and gaity and celebration.

I admit total ignorance on this one, but don't you have to be found "at fault" for the divorce before you have to pay alimony? But either way, knock back a dozen and call in sick tomorrow

I had reluctantly agreed to the alimony while we were negotiating our separation papers, and NC is a no fault state. I would have gotten hammered in court due to my income. She pretty much had her BF moved in before we even had the papers signed, so we were headed to court anyway. Saved me court fees for sure.

ALIMONY??? WTF? How is that even still LEGAL? What in God's name is the legal basis for paying someone (presumably an employable adult) a stipend after your relationship ends???

Great to hear. All exs should be dragged out & . . . .

No . . . I'm over my anger now . . . anger management is a good thing . . .

Keep an eye on your pensions, though. Mine grabbed 50% of my GOV'T pension . . .

Reading threads like these make me want to remain single, and don't even ask about marriage.

Congrats...seems as though we should round up the boys and head to the club and support some more single moms. I still miss Wendy the 6 foot tall redhead...

Damn it. I guess I won't be getting married soon. Alimony is like welfare.
