Should I divorce my husband for cheating?

Cheating is disrespectful to you and your marriage. You don’t need to accept it or forgive it if you don’t want to. In time, your spouse’s infidelity may wear on your self-esteem. When that happens, you could actually start to believe you don’t deserve a husband who treats you better.

What is a spousal maintenance payment?

Spouse maintenance is financial support paid by a party to a marriage to their former husband or wife in circumstances where they are unable to adequately support themselves.

Does spousal support end when you live with someone?

A Court may order that a spouse pay their former partner maintenance following the breakdown of their relationship (or even during their marriage, if the parties are married), “spousal maintenance”, where one party cannot provide for their own needs.

When can alimony be stopped?

The obligation to pay future alimony ends when the supported spouse remarries. The paying spouse doesn’t have to return to court—payments may simply stop as of the date of the marriage. The payor is entitled to reimbursement for all maintenance paid from that date forward.

Do I have to pay spousal support when I retire?

If the payor reaches full retirement age, or retires involuntarily, such as for medical reasons or being forced out of a job, then a court may consider it reasonable to reduce or terminate spousal support. A court may not find it reasonable for a payor to voluntarily retire before age 65 and expect to get a reduction.
