Go speak with a family lawyer. (Pay the lawyer his/her hourly rate for the consult. Avoid the guy who will do it for free, you want as unbiased as possible. Tell the lawyer you won’t be retaining him/her even if you do end up separating).
Is there life after divorce? Yes, of course, but it can be difficult especially if your depressed.
I have 3 kids. Can we survive this financial turmoil? Survive yes, but there are many different levels of subsistence. You will come out the worst, you probably won’t be able to recover the costs given your age. Support payment for three kids is a lot. (Family court garnishment orders cap out at 50% of your pay)
What should I do?
1. Don’t panic
2. Put more effort into your relationship (non-sex) whatever happens it’s a long complicated process. Better to be on good and friendly terms with the spouse, before during and after. Also, be more empathetic remember covid is hard on everyone and the mental impact might not be visible, but it’s there for sure.
3. go see a lawyer get better advice about what’s involved and the costs
good luck

Actually it's not bad. I know guys who have been paying for 30 years. Rule of thumb is married one year, no support, married 5 years, 5 years support, married 11 years, life. I was married 11 years.. so in my eyes NOT BAD

You know you guys can use an online calculator to work out liability, quantum and duration of spousal support yourselves, huh?
Just like the pros do?
You guys have no idea what you're saying 90% of the time. I just read your crap and laugh.
Not Bad?
Are you saying you will be paying till she dies? ex: 80 years old.
This doesn't make sense at all, I met owners of commercial companies they own and managed not to pay much or none at all.
I am not even going to have a woman live with me past 4 weeks.
I am curious to know what happen to the OP.
Cant remember the whole conversation now but, my support payments stopped at the 11 year period and said "not bad" because I was answering someone who had been and still was paying support at the 14 year mark. as for those that don't {or won't| there is a story to everyone one of them. I just followed the law. A lot of the entire conversation is missing in that one quote
