Getting a divorce is not always easy. In fact, I personally think it is never easy. It's not easy for the people going through it and it's not easy for any children who are involved. Women can especially get short changed. Therefore, I am going to be sure to make the most out of my divorce.
I'm fortunate that I am not in an abusive relationship. Also, my husband has a good job and earns a decent salary. Unfortunately, he has also decided to be celibate. He hasn't touched me in three years. His partner in bed has become Rosie Palms and he is content. I, on the other hand (no pun intended), am not. Since I am not into celibacy and never have been, I intend to divorce my husband as soon as it is feasible.
My dear father used to say, "You need to pick the pear when it's ripe." I need to prepare myself before I file for divorce. I am getting my finances together and my affairs in order. In the state where I live I need to be at least 50 years old to collect maintenance or alimony for the rest of my life. Currently, I am 48. Why forfeit all that money for the comfort of great sex? I'd rather wait till I'm 50, collect the money and enjoy myself for the next 30 or 40 years.
I have been married over twenty years. I believe I am entitled to half of everything my husband has since I live in a community property state. I can't wait to leave him. Each day reminds me that I am one day closer to my goal.
