I don't know the breakdown in Texas. But I do know that after 10 years in a military marriage, I am entitled to half of his military pay. So for instance, he is signing a deal where he gets $2400 a month from the Army for the rest of his life, after 10 years marriage (which is January for me) I would be entitled to half. As far as spousal support, we don't have any children, and I actually make more than him on paper (but he brings in more benefits with the military), so I don't think spousal support would apply to us, since we have no children either.

I would be entitled to a healthcare package from the military and id card benefits after 10 years of marriage, which again is in January.

So for now, it seems in my best interest to lay low until Jan 2nd, or at least drag out the divorce until then, if we go that route. Everyday is different really, I do still love him despite what he is doing, and want to work on things, but as far as I am concerned, we are headed towards divorce as long as he has another person in our marriage.
