Anyone here familiar with New York Divorce Laws?

[self biased]

or divorce laws in general? I find myself in need of some "not legal advice."

I suppose a thread like this was inevitable. Still, sorry SB.

Shotguns don't have to be limited just to the wedding...

thanks, drake and mobius.

i have finally reached a point where my ability to be reasonable with my ex has been exceeded by her predilection to be unreasonable with me.

sorry SB.

Oh cut the sh**. No good marriage ever ended in divorce.

for what it's worth, darius, i adored her. at this point i don't even recognize her.

[Darius871]

Not angsty enough for you, SB?

[self biased]

you've managed to lose me darius. what the **** are you talking about?

[Darius871]

Nothing, just being an a**hole.

[self biased]

fair enough, i suppose. at least i thought i had a good marriage up until last year.

Well, last year New York finally passed no fault divorce, so you no longer have to go through a 1 year separation period.

if only things were that simple gepap; my ex is an adultress. not to mention the child support quagmire i seem to have gotten myself into.
