My wife of two years and I have finally decided to pull the plug. We fucking hate each other.

We got married because she was pregnant 4 months into the relationship. Our daughter is a year and four months old now.

She's an attorney. Makes 100k a year. I write songs for a publishing company. I make 20k a year plus a few grand here and there doing other musical work.

My job is very sought after and not something I'm going to give up. I finally just became one of the 1% in my business, and I'd be a fucking idiot to stop now. Yes, it's low paying at the moment, but I could've made 200k with the song from today unknowingly. That's just the nature of the business.

BUT, I understand I'm gonna have to come up with some more cash to make this all work. Any advice is welcome in that department.

We split all the bills 65/35ish right now and in nashville that's still a lot.

Rent-$1750 Utilities-200 a month for Internet and rest Health insurance- $125 Day care - 600/month

Gas and living expenses aren't cheap either.

I assume I'm going to pay child support, have to get a new apartment alone, and pay it all.

How the fuck am I going to afford it?

I'm just curious how the rest of you do it.

Other than get two side jobs working at night and never see my child, I really don't know how to do this.

Thanks in advance.
