Time is a great healer and I know I will forgive her someday. I don't want to be bitter because I want to meet someone else eventually. Being bitter would prevent that.
It may be difficult to get spousal support and I may not get it. I have to try though. I think the ease in which it is awarded depends on the state. Here in CA they award it but, for example, in TX it does not exist. My lawyer didn't make it seem like it would be that tough and I have talked to a couple of other inside sources that didn't make it sound that tough either. It comes down to what the judge/court decides so I will have to wait to see how it pans out.
She's already told me she resents my school and how tough it is (and how it pulled me away). I'm sure she will resent me if I push for the spousal support. Yes, I'm sure she will continue to believe I'm a selfish person but at this point I have to look out for myself. I don't really want her to resent me. I didn't want any of this, but I think she is pretty selfish too.
What else could she do to me? That concerns me. I've only experienced my parent's divorces and it seemed there wasn't much more damage post D.
