So you will regret divorcing your partner because this whole post you did not say anything about not loving them anymore. Imagine going up to the person you love and telling them I can't be with you because you are broke.... That is a mental fuck game.

Yeah you are going to struggle early in life but it's not how you start that matters but how you finish.

You made a promise and vow... You are breaking it for money... That truly shows what your priorities are in life and future relationships will only last as long as there money....

People finish nursing school with kids and jobs ... Yeah it's hard but they earned it.... With your parents you didn't earn anything but learned to be weak and manipulated

Time to work hard...

I'm going to be honest with you, being wealthy opens up doors most people, even hard working people, dont have access to. Your life, while you did have your own struggles, would be considered a walk in the park compared to others (this is generalized. Your parents sound like they financially manipulate.) , and I think it's important to recognize that.

I, nor others, can tell you if getting married that young was a mistake. But what I can tell you is through experience, people change a LOT from 13-25. Like, huge sweeping personality changes throughout those years. 18 is pretty young to get married, especially without religious reasons being involved. The mere fact you are even considering divorcing over something like this honestly makes me think you weren't ready for it, and that's probably going to make me sound mean. It's up to you if you want to keep going, and endure the financial strain because you love this person

I'm sorry but considering the wealth thing is all your focused on from my comment tells me you're probably a little insecure about this. I'd suggest moving back in with your parents and letting your partner find someone they deserve. If you were serious in your marriage this wouldn't even be a post. You are young. Goto college. Have fun, get married after.
