Questions / rough night

this is hard for me, as I like to keep to myself,
yet I dont know where to turn or what to do.
My spouse, has just changed our previous agreement on money
and this week I will not get any, and when I do, he has already
cut it back by several hundred dollars. Now he says his lawyer told him
he only has to give me child support thats all. No extra help with food,
electric, groceries or the VERY expensive car he put me into.
I am lost, scared, angry, and confused. This all came about because I
opened up and told him my true feelings. His anger has caused me
to withdraw even more, hence missing from the board.
The only friend I talk to, has helped me keep what little
sanity I have left.
Any divorce advice??

Good idea... a lawyer that has passion for the issue... also consider one from a lgbt referral if that has any relevance. I went that route and she was a wondeful attorney.

What's the use in regrets
They're just thing we haven't done yet
What are regrets?
They're just lessons we haven't learned yet

I found my wonderful lady lawyer on the net. I punched in my state and lawyers. Also, word of mouth is good. Talking too a few and comparing them is a good idea. If you don't like her attitude or what she has to say, go see another. Getting along with her will only help you in the long run. Remember, she works for YOU so get your money's worth.


Good luck !


Hugs,

Robin
