A good way to ruin a few days - have your soon to be ex tell you in passing that they are going to ask for alimony even though they have a rather large savings account, got about 70% of the proceeds from selling the house, and have been getting about 50% of my paycheck so far for support.
The idea that now she wants a formal alimony for 5-7 more years because she doesn't want to take a non-ideal job or have to touch her savings is infuriating.

It sucks because it has been amicable up to now, but this is feeling really manipulative and it is breaking any want to maintain a friendship with her
