does it? i'm not sure - 'jilted' means someone left you - not that you ended the marriage AND then told the other person to get out.

if LMM was asking me the latter - i wouldn't have a clue how to answer that - if the person didn't want the marriage to end and didn't want to leave their home and then presumably had less time with their children as a result and still had to pay CM and SM, i can see how that would be really horrible. and i guess it happens plenty.

either way you raise an interesting point LB67. Someone walking away and taking their 'freedom' is very different from someone being given their marching orders against their will. And how do you blanket legislate when the scenarios are so different? What i can see as just in one scenario is of course an added punishment in the other - and i certainly wouldn't advocate that.
