What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? CA San diego

Hello,
I want to divorce but i am scared and worried and not sure what to do

i been married for 7 years now no kids no issue no fights but i feel like i am trap and not going anywhere in my life with my wife
we are two separate people with very little in commons and i dont like her nor i enjoy my marriage life with her or sexual life.

I want to move on but i am scarred of what will happen to her , i am nice guy but i cant say no or hurt anyone and i cant think about doing anything bad to her meanwhile i can leave because my wife does not make alot of money so i am talking care of her bills and mine

i make around 3000 a month or less after tax and she makes around 1000 or less or more a month so if i leave then she wont be able to pay bills or live on her on but she has family here i dont have anyone

i want to move on , leave and take divorce and leave everything for her

Please advise

You are planning this with the wrong people. Take steps to shield your assets from a full out attack, then sit down and be honest with her. You owe her that. Attempt to work out an organized breakup, leaving her financially independent.

Step one: Get some therapy and figure out what you want and what's wrong in your life.

Worry about step 2 after that. Sounds like it will take a while.

In California she will be entitled to spousal support equaling one-half of your income for half of the time you were married. So if you were married for 7 years, she will get 3.5 years of spousal support. Based on the basics provided in your post, she will get $1,000 a month from you, so you each will be forced to live on $2,000 a month.

If you plan to end this, the sooner the better. Remember for every 2 days you spend with her in this unhappy marriage you will owe her another day of spousal support. The longer you wait the longer you pay.

She is entitled to have a court consider an alimony award. That doesn't mean she'll get any.

You don't have enough facts to say alimony is a given. OP is willing to leave her all marital assets.

I agree that to divorce sooner rather than later is correct.
