<prompt> Human: As the title says, Im very close to getting divorced from my wife. She is the main breadwinner of the family, and supports our renting a 1200pm townhome.I do have a full time job working in a school. I will be taking home around 1500 a month in the new year currently only 1140, and I have a lot of free time to supplement my income, such as over the holidays.However, we live in a fairly affluent area. The majority of places Ive looked at to move into are upwards of 700pm, just for a private room. The summer just ended - I cant pick up another job and work a 40hour week to build up a buffer on top of my year-round educator salary.Chances are very good that Im going to have to drive to work, too, which adds insurance to my outgoings, as well as a potential car payment. I dont currently have my own vehicle, although I may be able to buy one outright with some savingswindfall money. That decision would be made with my wife. Individually, I have no savings at all.Oh, also, Im a recent immigrant to the US. I came here to get married - which obviously didnt work out. If I decide to try and stay here, Im going to have to pay out of the nose to file paperwork, and possibly even hire an immigration lawyer.Im on the verge of drowning.EDIT: Guys, by main breadwinner, I mean shes bringing home 10-15k more than me. Not that shes rolling in the dough and throwing me out on the streets to starve. Theres really no need for any kind of alimony to be sought.Assistant: If she is making a significant amount more than you you may be eligible for alimony. I would also look into moving into an area that is a bit cheaper as well. Cut expenses that are not needed until you get to a point that you have a positive income. Do you have a divorce lawyer? Human: I wont be pursuing any kind of alimony.Moving is obviously an option, but I still have to be able to get to my job - which will move having a car from probable to definite, and increase my gas costs. I will have to look and see what kind of a difference it will make.We dont have a lawyer, no. At least, not yet.Assistant: Why wont you be pursuing alimony?Human: She will have two children to support from a previous relationship. I wont take money away from that when I can manage on my own.  <response>: Good for you man, seriously.
