Sorry things have turned in this direction. I am REALLY surprised that a lawyer told you that you would have to pay her alimony all your working life. Half your salary at that! What a horrible state. For one she is working and has the capability to work more. In the state I live in they take that into account. Also in my state if one of the spouses whether man or woman has an affair which is adultery from what I hear that person might as well bend over in the court room. They would never award alimony to a spouse that commited adultery and broke up the marriage. Gosh it just upsets me hearing this and I am a woman. Maybe you should check out a couple different attorney's. It sounds like a horrible thing to do. Well, sorry your wife has cheated and hurt you beyond belief. But now pay her half your salary and then child support on top of that.
I mean how would the courts even expect you to be able to support yourself?
Your wife has a lot of nerve it sounds like. I can't even imagine being able to come home and even face my husband after being caught like she was.
