What I would like to see more often is, if a spouse commits infidelity, there should be NO spousal support. In a lot of states, including mine, adultery has no bearing on spousal support.

So my W can have an affair with OM, divorce me, take half my retirement and half my 401k, a large percentage of my wages and then continue her A and as long as she doesn't move in with OM or marry him, I'm stuck paying spousal support for x number of years.

And that I have a problem with.


Gee, ya think???

Same thing in my state (FL), too. It's unconscionable.
