    Allienation of Affection and Using Your Travel for Work to "Entertain"
    :(My question involves alienation of affection law for the State of: Mississippi

    My husband is in the military and continues to use his influence and his need to travel to commit adultery. One of his paramours live in Mississippi and he visited just to attend her promotion, and bent over backwards so that she could be accepted to officer candidate school to become an officer like him (did I mention he is her boss...). I want to sue her under the alienation of affection law in Mississippi. What do I do? I also want to fight for so many military wives that have this issue, but can do nothing about it. This is really sad because with moving around so much, most are not able to build up a retirement and must stick it out in order to have just a crumb...they feel helpless and hopeless especially when there is verbal/mental abuse (my husband reminds me that no one else would want me, he is a hot commodity, etc. lies, and uses his work phone to conduct his "business") I feel like I have no recourse and everybody charges and I have nothing....as many military spouses do not...

    I have been to counselors and when I found out about a woman who stayed in our subdivision that he was having an affair with, it just took everything out of me and he has been off the chain ever since... I try to fight the depression and the PTSD, but it is soooo hard....


    Already Tried:
    asking him not to: accept her calls all hours of the day/night constantly text each other not to go to her promotion (someone else can alway do it as it has been done before & he doesn't go to others barley) hang out with her drinking, clubbing(she invited him out the night before her promotion and he said he didn't answer my call because he didn't want me to ruin the night for him) tired of trying


    What are my options?

    HELP!!!!

    Of course, the simplest option would be simply to divorce him.

    But of course, that wouldn't gain you multi-millions, so I'm sure you won't consider that a viable option.

    You need to speak with a local attorney. Although Mississippi still entertains AoA suits you must weigh this up against the reality that the paramour simply doesn't have anything worthwhile that you can attach for damages.

    Divorce may be a cheaper, wiser and better option for you. Also, your husband should realize that using his position like that is NOT welcomed or condoned by any branch of the military. He can face severe penalties.

    I will be so happy the day every state gets rid of the whole concept of Alienation of Affection.... it's ridiculous.

    However, yes, you are free to file for divorce.

    Did you notice that the OP was ready to go to the mat for AoA but didn't mention adultery...the FAR easier charge to prove?

    Now, why would that be?

    Because Hell hath no fury, my friend, and misery do love her some company. And people seem to always want to go after the other woman/other man for "theft", as if the wandering spouse was just this guileless child suddenly swept away.

    Yeah, yeah, people automatically think Big Money, too, but that's really only because in their anger and hurt, they're not really thinking.
