Today, I informed my family of my plans to divorce my wife after catching her cheating on me twice. They bitched me out because I will not be able to survive financially or emotionally without her support. I'm a doctor. She's been unemployed for 2 straight years. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I told my mother that, after years of cheating and abuse, I'm finally getting a divorce. Her reaction was deep concern that my husband might not want to "be friends" with the rest of the family any more. FML
Today, I found out I was getting a divorce. My wife is leaving me for my brother, saying that now that he has money there is nothing that can stand in their way. I recently decided to send him money to help him get back on his feet. FML
Today, my wife told me she wanted a divorce and walked out. This is two days after she informed me that she is unexpectedly pregnant. FML
Today, after 6 years of marriage, my wife called me toxic and abusive. All because I asked her if she's going to find a job, as it's getting harder for me to take care of everything, and we need more money at the moment. She's been unemployed for almost two years already. FML
Today, I told my wife I wanted a divorce. I haven’t been in love with her for a long time and I've fallen in love with a girl at my job. When I told her this, she responded with, “No, fuck that, we're going to couples' therapy and you are gonna be a father to our kids!” I guess that’s a “No.” FML
Today, my mother bitched me out for filing divorce papers against my abusive husband. According to her, it's a "slap in God's face". She's the one who's divorced two husbands so far because they weren't getting job promotions fast enough to support her hoarding habit. FML
Today, my wife told me that she wants a divorce. Apparently, I'm taking too long to forgive her for having an affair. FML
Today, my my soon to be ex-wife found out I was telling the truth and never cheated. She wanted to get back together but I told her that we're too far into the divorce proceedings to turn back, and there's just no fixing our marriage. She then told me she's filing for full custody with no visitation rights. FML
Today, my wife said she wants a divorce. Three days ago, I added her onto the title to my house, my bank accounts, and my business. FML
Today, I was told by my wife of 19 years that all the songs about cheating that she's been playing for a year and a half should have been a good enough hint. Getting a divorce. FML

I can imagine him walking in on his wife and her cheater and him being like Chris Hansen "Now why don't you have a seat over there."

Doctors make good money. Why would your family think you can't support yourself? Unless you suck at what you do..

Well, not really. And especially not at first. It really depends what you do, what the overhead is, what country you're in, etc.

see, now you know what has kept her "busy" for the last two years...you must be very forgiving for not getting a divorce after she cheated on you the first time..."her support", your family sure has some sense of humour...

They're partially right. She's gonna squeeze every last penny out of you during the divorce.

not if he proves she was being unfaithful.

easier said than done. personally, id stfu until i found some solid evidence. i highly doubt his first thought was to grab a camera and get evidence for the divorce, so just start dating, bust her in the act, apply the divorce and move the new girlfriend in. not only will it give her the message that shes now not getting a thing from you, but also that she means so little to you that youve already moved on.

Even with cheating, unless they have a prenuptial and he can prove her infidelity, he will have to pay spousal support, especially since she has no other income. Sorry, dude. I feel for you, but the law is going to screw you over.

Well you will be poor because she is unemployed so you will have to pay her half your money every month for alimony! Usually it's for half the length of the marriage. In California, if you are married 10 years or more, you pay alimony for life! I hope you are not in a state with this same law and I hope you were not married more than 10 years otherwise it will suck for you. Worst thing in California is that even if she cheated she would still get half of your paycheck. I went through divorce so i know these things. Good luck.

If she cheated she won't get a dime all he has to do is prove it.

wow that sucks! in Canada they tell the spouse to get a Job. you only have to pay child support and that's if she has custody of the child you share! and it's based on your income and other bills. each partner only gets 50% of what was accumulated during the relationship! not half of a paycheck. that is ridic!
