What is the name of your state? Florida

First i'd like to sincerely thank anyone that can give me a ray of light in whats been the worst week of my life...

I'm not a Petty man, nor am I greedy and violent. On the contrary I love my wife deeply even after 10yrs of very rocky treatment by her. I've endured numerous rampant and flagrant adultry. Which eventually costed me a Foreman's Job in our old state.. Hard to maintain professionalism in light of snickering comments, ridicule from superiors and the daily wieght of shame and embarrassment that came from everyone in my work place knowing of my wife's hobby's. But I stayed... Hey, i know... but i loved her.. i still do...
But it got worse.. so much so... I ended up contracting Herpes from her activities.. Ironic, because she would deny me intamacy for weeks/months on end. Then she began to get verbally abusive.. I discreetly sought treatment for Depression as a result of these "events" And there is even more to tell, I just cant bring myself to turn our marriage into a Public Circus which is what she's doing now. After she just deserted one nite while I was working.. I came home to an empty house. No reason, explanation nothing... Just bills... She's a Nurse and has a great position which makes her easily 4x what I earn..

After almost a week of not knowing where she's at or what (and being served Restraining Papers, preventing me from even looking for her) I want it over.. Finally.. But I cant survive with just my meager check. And I truly dont have the financial resources to go head to head with her Hired Guns in the Legal field.... Do I have any recourse whatsoever? I dont want to hurt her or to ruin her life... But I just dont think she should walk away hands clean. It's probably a case of he said-she said.. but i do have documents (one of which was signed and dated by her!) proving her adultery... I also have co-workers from up North who had very eagerly offered to come down just to testify... Not that that would merit the trouble. But i'm not empty handed... Do I stand a chance at all?? Or should I just sign it and be glad it's over?

Again thanks for any comments and suggestions that anyone may have...

Florida is a no fault divorce state. However, you may be entitled to a larger share of the marital property if you can prove adultry. You also may be able to get a divorce faster.

I don't know how hard you'll fight since it seems that you don't mind being cheated on, sexually deprived,lied to, infected, ridiculed and verbally and mentally abused. Why would you want to ruin her life after all she's done for you? She sounds like a sweetheart.
