| 2 | Please help if you have experienced anything like thisThis is why I posted here . I don’t think there is anywhere else that I can be understood . I’m still reeling from my night , and yet still have to text and relate calm and child focused with an abusive human being . I’m sorry for all of us . My brain wants to make sense of this due to shock and the fear, anger , and overall disregard for my well being , which directly affects my children and even her well being too. Imagine if I was out of commission due to the stress and anxiety given to me . … | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/02/26 02:26 PM |

| 3 | For any dad going through divorce who knows he really triedI’ve unfortunately learned now a second time that there is not much upside for marriage for men specifically . My wife is going to be served this coming Monday and I can’t afford much of anything. In CA (the worst) where I live as the by far the primary earner , I will have to pay child support and have my kids 50/50, I do not think custody will be contested at all. However , tell me in what reasoning if someone can provide for themselves , and you take on half of the responsibility , still pay … | /r/Divorce_Men | 29/01/26 03:29 AM |

Best to you and hopefully things are better for you at least somewhat now | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/01/26 07:17 AM |
| 1 | For any dad going through divorce who knows he really triedReally Sorry about your dog . Nobody loves you like your dog does , it’s unconditional, probably the only thing on earth except if your lucky your mom . Same story with my dog in our meeting , yet we will see how this plays out . I filed for Divorce today officially , in the pos state of CA, if my stbx wants to she could make me next to homeless financially. I am still acting in full integrity and trying to find peace in myself . I want nothing but peace , we will see as I hope this moves that w… | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/01/26 07:12 AM |

| 1 | Exhausted dad trying to do this the right way and could use perspectiveYeah man for real 👍 I needed to hear this . | /r/Divorce_Men | 20/01/26 02:59 PM |
| 1 | Exhausted dad trying to do this the right way and could use perspectiveI know man and I’m. Barely making it . Fortunately I documented every dollar I gave her outside of bills the last two years . Also my 6 and 7 year old non coercive told me she is hiding money . I cannot confront her on this though | /r/Divorce_Men | 20/01/26 03:52 AM |
| 1 | Exhausted dad trying to do this the right way and could use perspectiveThank you | /r/Divorce_Men | 20/01/26 03:50 AM |

| 2 | Exhausted dad trying to do this the right way and could use perspectiveThe men on this string are awesome . Every post I read feels helpful . As men nobody gets is EXCEPT other dads and fathers , it’s a sad truth . | /r/Divorce_Men | 19/01/26 12:00 AM |
| 3 | Exhausted dad trying to do this the right way and could use perspectiveI meant 10 years not 19 fyi | /r/Divorce_Men | 18/01/26 11:57 PM |
| 3 | Exhausted dad trying to do this the right way and could use perspectiveFactually I will never let the 10 year mark hit because of the horrible family law statutes in fuck whole ca , 19 years here could mean life alimony . I’ve already documented support outside of household bills to the dollar amt over the last two years , which by mediation or even court would limit alimony . 2024 I gave her 24000 and 2025 12k approx . On top of this my children are very high maintenance, there is no way nor am I looking to , but even 50/50 shared I’ll be paying a large sum to her… | /r/Divorce_Men | 18/01/26 11:56 PM |
| 2 | Exhausted dad trying to do this the right way and could use perspective9.5 years married , or kids are 6 and 7. Sole reasons I could not tell you exactly , dysfunctional communication where the reframing on what I do is usually in the wrong for no valid reason | /r/Divorce_Men | 18/01/26 11:52 PM |
| 3 | Exhausted dad trying to do this the right way and could use perspectiveThank you guys nobody gets how men deal with life the support means a lot | /r/Divorce_Men | 18/01/26 07:54 PM |
| 3 | Exhausted dad trying to do this the right way and could use perspectiveI’ve been using ai literally every exchange to protect myself from saying the wrong thing, and also documenting everything . I’m sure I would have already hurt myself unintentionally otherwise with some response to crazy talk from her | /r/Divorce_Men | 18/01/26 07:46 PM |
| 2 | Exhausted dad trying to do this the right way and could use perspectivelol hilarious on the toilet seat | /r/Divorce_Men | 18/01/26 07:18 PM |
| 4 | Exhausted dad trying to do this the right way and could use perspectiveI don’t I’m near insolvent and commission based sales | /r/Divorce_Men | 18/01/26 07:08 PM |
| 2 | Exhausted dad trying to do this the right way and could use perspectiveAlso good advice . However since I have been the sole financial advisor, I want to avoid court . I cannot afford an attorney , and if she gets one and he or she is a total pos , financially alone she can ask I pay her legal fees . Everything is stacked against me there . However , I will be filing in the short term after I get more documents together in the financial side if necessary | /r/Divorce_Men | 18/01/26 07:05 PM |
| 3 | Exhausted dad trying to do this the right way and could use perspectiveLegal seperation in this shit state of CA is identical to divorce with no benefit . I’m going to file if we don’t go to mediation for filing after I get all the finances documented on my side . Having to be a fucking lawyer for myself is shit and exhausting there is no other way though . | /r/Divorce_Men | 18/01/26 07:02 PM |
| 3 | Exhausted dad trying to do this the right way and could use perspectiveThank you this means a lot . The stress has literally pushed me to the edge , I’m taking one step at a time . This is great advice . I have been occasionally drinking to cope , but am aware of this as a issue to be very stringent on | /r/Divorce_Men | 18/01/26 07:00 PM |
| 4 | AI is scary good at explaining things while I am going through my divorceLet me be clear , I’ve been using AI for everything, my wife who we are in the in between is a master communicator to her benefit and will reframe everything to her side and control . AI has helped me respond the right way to protect myself where I could say the wrong thing and be worse off . It’s an Amazon tool . Literally every exchange for months I copy and paste the screenshot of texts and document everything for safety . | /r/Divorce_Men | 18/01/26 06:27 PM |
| 3 | Man im in a dark space againThe feeling of loss and being alone is universal for men here , our sense of self dies when this happens , and all too often the burden is on us and nobody gives a literal fuck about our suffering . Do your best to stay strong | /r/Divorce_Men | 18/01/26 06:24 PM |

Turning 47 and scared honestly.This is my second divorce with small children .My wife being a trauma laden dismissive avoidant puts me on the defense regularly . I’m smart now about the crazy pattern this entails . Divorce fucking sucks . I’ve had to be strong in myself one foot in front because I don’t know who I’m dealing with day to day with her . She is turning 45 and hormones and grief are making things hard, even when I literally make every effort to not have things not chill .

As a child I went through multiple divorces with my parents , and as a father about to go through another. If your dad is truly not good then him spreading lies on this site has little to no relevance to anything . Nobody here knows your mom (most likely ) and reality is it does not matter what he says here . Mainly sorry to you . It sucks hard for kids , and I hope for grace and best outcome for you and your siblings if you have them . It’s not… | /r/Divorce_Men | 22/12/25 04:18 AM |

I did the math and even best case mediation I would need to make $100,000 more next year commission based sales JUST to break even , no savings . No extra life for myself after alimony and child support . Absolutely insane .

| 1 | I think I’m done, but the pain of divorce is crushing meI don’t know who you are but you need to write a book . You took the internal dynamics and explained then so clearly it’s impressive. One thing to note is I’m a human , a man , with my own past . My triggering conflict is wanting to say fuck it , I’ve never let anyone treat me like that . Think about this , if this was a man , it would have already been blows a long time ago . We are simple , this is complex | /r/Divorce_Men | 11/12/25 01:07 PM |

| 17 | Lawyer told me in a divorce I’d be financially wrecked. Wife is emotionally gone. Any dads survive getting hit with this reality?Then they want to know why men delete themselves . I’m going to therapy , but can’t fathom a future where I can’t even afford a place to live . I’m also commissioned based sales , where the court could give a fuck if I had a bad month . I’m so beyond myself with this situation that I don’t know how to cope. Thank you for your messages . | /r/Divorce_Men | 04/12/25 03:47 AM |
| 3 | Perspective NeededLet me tell you that I’ve been married for 10 years and have always been in the same position as you . Not once has my wife helped with anything financial . She even started working now (her own business ) and wont contribute , it’s very challenging . I have considered divorce so many times it’s hard to count . Recently my wife is now rejecting me and going down that route of emotional separation . It’s a total mindfuck .

I appreciate this , I’ll do my best to cope . I have been through a lot of pain in my life , but this is hitting hard . There is too much stress for a long time . I know people can relate .

| 6 | I’ve finally hit my breaking pointI’m 46 and she is 43. So I know hormones play a huge role in this . However , I can’t just right it off like that . I hate being pushed around , I’m a man and can only “eat it” so much . Women are like this regardless, but I’m sure there are some out there where the volatility isn’t 0-100 in 2.2 second . I’ve been struggling with divorcing my wife for years . It’s a total and utter mind fuck. Men are logical and simple , I struggled with this for a very long time . | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/11/25 04:16 PM |
