None of you guys know me, but I spent a year posting a lot on the recovery forum. Well, it didn't work, we're divorcing. Now, for my question: anybody else had experience divorcing in Tennessee and got any good advice for me? I am, BTW, the BS and the STBX is the WS.

Welcome to the other side of the street. I'm not from Tennessee but if it's a no-fault state then they are pretty much the same.
Do you have kids? A Lawyer?
Again welcome and wish we'd of met under different conditions, but keep coming back there are some tremendous people over here.
Hugs, Thoughts, & Prayers

I too am from Tennessee and was served divorce papers last night. I just talked to my attorney and will meet with him in the morning. He made me feel so much better. I thought I would just be put out to pasture with no viable means of support. I thought alimony was a thing of the past. Little did I know... He said to me, I'm sorry but you'll most likely only be able to get alimony until you're 65. I jumped for joy! I thought I would get nothing...
I too am interested in other replies... Talk to your attorney as it will make you feel better.

Hi DrCu,
I do know your story a bit but you don't know me.I spent some time reading old posts when I first came here,like around the time you became a member.I am sorry that you are going to be D'd too.From what I remember,you were very helpful to those who posted and you tried to reply to everyone.
Anyway,I don't live in Tennessee but just wanted to give my condolences.I may end up here myself very soon.
