I currently reside in the state of Mississippi and have been in the Coast Guard for 16 years. In Oct I had to have back surgery due to damage sustained in the line of duty. Prior to the surgery the wife and I had a fight (non violent) and I left my home and moved to my parents knowing that she would not be able to take care of me in the debilitated state I would be in for a few months following the surgery. Comments were being made that she did not want me to have the surgery and that what would she do while I was laid up for months which also led me to believe her inability or desire to care for me.
On Oct 12 I had the surgery and over the course of nine weeks she came to see me a total of three times. She maintained control of the finances and I eventually hinted at Divorce. She still has control of the money and last week I uncovered the fact that she is having an affair. I have proof of the affair but I have also learned that she is taking my kids around her new boyfriend and I have a strong suspicion he has even spent nights in my home. I am currently in cousel with a very good lawyer on the Coast but this woman who I have been married to for 8 years is really hurtful and I am at a bit of a loss as to what to do. This cant be fair to me and she gets pissed at me whenever I take money to pay my lawyer. She is living the good life while I am still at my parents this hardly seems fair as I have not cheated and she is now in a full on relationship with a man and I am supporting it financially. I will speak to my lawyer on Monday but any insight would be much appreciated.
This is a very abbreviated version but I have not cheated, I have kept her financially in the good out of 6400 dollars a month I am only taking about 500dollars. Any insight would be much appreciated. Is she still entitled to Alimony given the infidelity?
Thanks,
