Keep in mind that in Texas you split what you have 50/50 except for child support.

If you don't mind sharing, what happened? Seems like if things are so amicable it might be worth trying to stay together since kids are involved.
PS - I'm not trying to be judgmental. My wife and I were a hair away from splitting up 10 years ago, stuck it out, we're really glad we did.

Divorces among people with older or adult children are fairly common...they probably stayed together for the kids years ago.

The advice we want is often not the advice we need. I realize so many on this board are pro-divorce, just offering a different perspective.

Either get a bada$$ lawyer or get out the lube for the fisting.
We haven't had biblical marriage in years, only a bad financial contract for the primary earner.
Choose wisely.
And sounds like she had a badass lawyer.BMX Bandit said:Muzzleblast said:

More like I saw parents try to make it work and wasted their best years in their late 40's/50's.
First of all, I don't give two ****s if you agree with me...yes, I think they can be some of your best years. Your kids are graduating, maybe starting their families with grandkids, you're comfortable financially or even retired. When people stay in a bad marriage into those years there is also an obvious issue of "time running out" and getting into the swing of a second marriage at that age and after being with someone for 30 years is a tough thing to do. People end up alone or making a huge life change, it's sad.Martin Q.
