My cousin, a dentist, pays alimony to her ex husband. They were only together a few years and have no kids. Shes a great woman and has a happy family now. She really encouraged me to fight (not that I needed encouragement)
Agreed that you don't need to be a stay at home mom once the kids aren't home all day. In fact, I think all that idle time can make people unhappy.
Another bad thing about marriage is, because she has you by the balls, she has less incentive to try as hard. In some ways it's healthier to think you could lose your partner at any time because it forces you to put in effort...to be their best option. It would miss some of the security though, but that security is often abused.
