I’d say if you get married in a place with alimony, then you do ethically owe your spouse alimony in the case of divorce. Part of the understanding under which the relationship commitments were made.

Yeah, I have a friend who's fighting her husband for alimony. He married her knowing she had mental health issues that hindered her ability to work, then a few months after she started working again he decided that he needs to move halfway around the world with or without her. She just wants enough money to not have to give up her animals while building up her income or downgrading her living situation.

And then there are stories like my gf whose ex husband tried to force her to stay unemployed (parrly utilizi his being in the military) while abusing her. She accepted no alimony and getting fucked on child support to get out of the marriage faster and with the kids.

It sucks when a person has to negotiate under enormous pressure.
