| 3 | I’m struggling. Separated wife is guilt tripping me. Am I crazy for still caring about her? Doubting myself for wanting a divorce.My ex did the same and I ended up offering more alimony, and the house …for nothing as today I can’t even step into the house I left her as she guilt trip me that I would have to be ok with her and the kids living in the ghetto of o didn’t, now she brings her new man to sleeping in the house I left her, FK the guilt trip | /r/Divorce_Men | 26/08/24 06:20 AM |
| 2 | SoCal lawyersI live in S. Cali and it took me 2.5 years, first off they won’t even look at your file u til 6 months after you file and then you are in a line of files …then go through the discovery of finances, then settlement and then waiting for h to w judge to sign off and that’s not if one of the lawyers miss a paper signed which sets you back | /r/Divorce_Men | 09/08/24 07:44 AM |
| 4 | Learning to move onI raged and argued and even when my ex stared to date some one serious I followed him to get in his face. At the end of the day, it doesn’t change her feelings and only made me look stupid. But I got it off my chest and really who cares what other ppl think about you if you need to say what you have to say then do it. She may not have a response or the response might not be what you wanted but you have the right to speak your peace. Forget playing the high road , as once it’s over it’s over and … | /r/Divorce_Men | 08/08/24 01:15 AM |
| 1 | Idk anymoreI’m in the same boat at 47 with 2 young kids. Life only feels normal when I have them and when they are gone, so is my happiness. I think the real problem is I feel that I can’t trust another woman to be that close to me again. 2.5 years we been separated and officially divorced as kid last Nov 2023 …and it still hurts | /r/Divorce_Men | 07/08/24 09:07 AM |
| 1 | Red flags in possible future wives!Never get married, just have kids! Raise your kids right that is all you need, you will never get that bond from a wife as you do with your own children, hence wives are like 80% who initiate the divorce! Not worth it to get married just to be let down and have to pay them bc they don’t want you …how F is that | /r/Divorce_Men | 21/07/24 08:25 AM |
| 0 | Help me out here guysShe still loves you so unless you want to reconcile then be upfront and talk to her that these conversations are no longer necessary to bring up as you have moved on, not with another women but emotionally moved forward. My point is communicate and don’t ghost her. | /r/Divorce_Men | 04/03/24 04:22 AM |
| 11 | Married a dentist full of ego and I am a software engineer who makes almost same as her. I can’t take anymore of this verbal, mental and physical abuse.Wow I just divorced my wife and she has one more year in dental school and I have 2 kids a 5 and 14month and she too has a huge ego …she doesn’t threaten me like your situation. I just found how similar our scenario was…the mental abuse is there and it’s been 2 years since the divorce started and my advice is you need to move forward faster and don’t even think she will ever change..I’m not completely there but moving ahead is easier now that I don’t think of reconciliation | /r/Divorce_Men | 01/02/24 08:25 AM |

| 1 | Seeking Advice on Raising a Daughter to Be AccountableI fully intend to raise my daughter to not take things for granted and own up taking accountability for her actions…doesn’t mean us men didn’t make mistakes but it is never one sided and both parties either will grow together or fall apart…my ex-w would NEVER admit to anything wrong…to a point she blames me for doing things during our separation as if I had an obligation to her as a wife yet she was able to act independently …talk about being hypocritical | /r/Divorce_Men | 06/10/23 06:10 AM |
| 1 | What is the best 50/50 custody schedule to still have a life?I have 50/50 and our schedule is Friday after school to next Friday dropping the kids off school in the morning. This gives us each weekend time with the kids and also weekend off without the kids….I couldn’t handle 2 days on 2 days off schedule that some do…just not enough time to spending quality time …it’s like just whenever you settle in with the kids they are off …7 days together works great for me | /r/Divorce_Men | 06/10/23 03:22 AM |

| 10 | What is the worst thing your ex did to you that hurt?Not take accountability for her fault and just rather never talk about the 8 years and 2 kids we built but hey learn that better things will come around it’s just you gotta go through this trench before reaching better times….I’m 1.5yrs and it still barely has gotten better …it actually just gets worst so not even sure I have hit the divorce bottom yet FML | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/09/23 05:54 AM |

| 14 | My stbx called me a narcissist during our separationThe term narcissist is used by therapist to help women blame men so they don’t take any accountability of a failed marriage….my ex called me that too and sent me videos of of what it means and I was like well realistically you do the exact same thing …women get bored and leave the marriage that a reality no one talks about yet blame it on men BS | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/08/23 07:57 AM |
| 4 | Will I ever completely get over her?Bro, I read your caption and then stoped after the word “cheated”. Anyone cheated on me I would be upset but OFC I would be completely over a waste of time women. Nothing to think about and actually easier to move on knowing it wasn’t your fault ! | /r/Divorce_Men | 03/08/23 07:07 AM |
| 2 | I (33M) really want to start the process, but I haven’t because I don’t want to face that i’ll only see my daughter half the time. Is it ever worth staying for the kids?You really haven’t described anything horrible about your wife. You also haven’t mentioned what steps YOU taken to make the marriage better …the only negative is that YOU can’t handle the stress of married and having a kid so you get high and drunk….what wife would be happy in a marriage with a husband like that? Trust me, being the sole provider is NOT a reason to think you deserve to be King of the house. It’s taken me loosing my family to realize my ego about being the sole provider was a mis… | /r/Divorce_Men | 02/08/23 09:36 AM |

| 3 | Girl (31f) I (33m) was dating was a divorcee with history of making out with someone else while married - tried to plan around that history to avoid repeat, didn’t work out.This is what I’m saying, why wives would divorce their men they know completely already to just jump with another guy who’s wife divorced them…that new guy will still have the same problems so why not try and fix the marriage first instead of calling it quits | /r/Divorce_Men | 30/07/23 05:17 PM |
| 3 | I’m super depressed going through a divorce and starting to regret initiating it.Wow I’m not trying to say I’m happy, but it is a good insight to how the person who initiated the divorce feels, maybe not all but partially feel regret. I always advise ppl that think about getting a divorce to no look at what your spouse hasn’t done to make the marriage work, but be honest with one self if you have made the effort to make the marriage a happy one, and no being the sole provider is not all you can do….it’s a very long emotional roller coaster this thing called divorce… | /r/Divorce_Men | 26/07/23 12:22 AM |
| 1 | Why do I keep trying?I’m in the same boat, don’t get me wrong, I made mistakes, didn’t pay attention to her, didn’t make plans to make her feel special, argued a lot and worst of I started to gamble….though I was the sole provider, I used that as excuse that she would never leave me and she did…I think we all go through ranting it was out of left field, but really deep down we know our faults …I’ve haven’t come fully to terms that my marriage is over even with the final divorce papers ….but I’m slowly started to acc… | /r/Divorce_Men | 25/07/23 07:25 AM |
| 4 | Just a quick rant. I’m going through a divorce…It’s hilarious the top reasons women divorce men are the same; communication issues, lack of attention, and no respect for us men…yet the ex’s believe leaving us they will find it in other men lmao yet almost 100% divorce is bc of these 3 reasons so why not just fix with who you are with than start over and just repeat the same issues with the next and most of the time if they divorced at a later age with kids end up with other divorced men SMH stupid just they don’t appreciate what they have….n… | /r/Divorce_Men | 20/07/23 07:17 AM |
| 1 | Let's be honest here. No macho answers, and no judgement. In reality, how many guys here would be happy to get validation from your ex that the divorce was not your fault?I wouldn’t say the divorce was all my ex-w fault, but yea it would feel good to know she finally takes responsibility for her part in our divorce | /r/Divorce_Men | 19/07/23 05:21 PM |
| 2 | How many of you guys felt disrespected and it effected the marriage?Todays world is about what have you done for me lately and not what have you done for me through the years ….my ex wife told me well that was your choice …zero appreciation for being the sole provider for 9 years, we lived an above average life and as I didn’t feel appreciated I went out more often and didn’t come home as I turn to gambling to pass the time of zero affection… | /r/Divorce_Men | 18/07/23 06:33 AM |

Now she’s hanging around ppl in their late 20s and early 30s as if she missed something from life total bs | /r/Divorce_Men | 11/07/23 05:49 PM |
| 1 | Going no contact …so hardThat’s what I’m saying, for this past Vday and Mother’s Day I took my daughter to let her pick out a gift and a card ….it was a paw patrol card …but I get snub for Father’s Day….I told her I get your reason I was a shit husband ( I was but I still was the sole provider ) but im a great father to our kids at least acknowledge that when she is barley a good mother and I still got our kids to acknowledge her on her special day so wtf | /r/Divorce_Men | 02/07/23 09:06 AM |

| 8 | Anyone else cry and do a bunch of embarrassing shit when their wife asked for a divorce?I never cried or begged for my ex-wife to stay and while being separated my way of trying to win her back was pointing out her flaws and continuing to argue with her to a point she called the cops on me 2 days before Christmas ( the argument was that I asked her if she was going to out both our names on the presents and she asked for me if I was going to pay for them if I wanted my name on it ) to this day which the whole process took almost 1.5 years I’m still arguing over her faults…needless t… | /r/Divorce_Men | 26/06/23 12:25 AM |

It’s my first weekend away and my ex instead of spending time with our kids she went out back to back nights…I understand it’s her life now but when I have the kids I never leave my kids alone …when I have my kids I make them my priority.

In my situation I would say I was 70% at fault and how I deal with it is I know I need to man up and continue to provide for my kids as giving up is not an option. Everyday I wake up hating that my ex divorced me and though she was with IG rights to do so, I hate the fact it was a last straw without let’s give it one last try when we are both in the same page …then I just focus on what my life will be as soon as I fix my whole I created during the divorce … | /r/Divorce_Men | 25/05/23 08:15 PM |

I commend you for seeing through her BS and not having any doubts about your decision…my STBXW hasn’t contributed financially, doesn’t ever clean so I have to pay for a maid, complains that having 2 kids is too hard to take care of so needed to hire a nanny, I was working 2 jobs and taking care of our daughter at home when we didn’t have a nanny and instead of seeing how overwhelmed I was she said it was my choice to work 2 jobs and not of hiring a nanny. Barely had sex when all she does is… | /r/Divorce_Men | 11/02/23 04:45 PM |
| 5 | Officially separating what next?You even shed more details that are similar to me, we didn’t respect each other…and even now as I try to be more understanding and not one up on her, she just has so much anger and disappointment from my actions…she called the cops on me 2x for excessive arguing with her…it’s a very sad place to be….but again my advice to you as I would do this over, stop and think what is the purpose of one up on her when arguing? Why need to have the last word? Is the small battle worth it or the war more impo… | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/01/23 03:53 AM |
| 8 | Officially separating what next?I was in your shoes 8 months ago and it was the worst decision if you are not being honest with yourself if divorce is what you really want…I thought great I get to work on myself and things just went down a spiral. Not to say this will happen to you, but I agreed to the separation bc we were not happy…and now 8 months later I wish I worked harder to make things work than make excuses for why we didn’t work. The feeling of starting over, not seeing your kids everyday, the STBXW moving on and the… | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/01/23 03:26 AM |
| 1 | Meeting ex’s new boyfriend.I get it, I dread the day my STBXW will bring a new man around …I just see you making excuses to meet your ex new bf to see who see dating…I’ll be in your shoes one day | /r/Divorce_Men | 14/01/23 04:06 PM |
| 0 | Meeting ex’s new boyfriend.you care more about meeting the new ex than taking full custody bc I thought you where concerned your kids are around a creepy guy? | /r/Divorce_Men | 14/01/23 03:21 PM |
| 2 | Temporarily Living With Your Ex-Wife or Soon-To-Be Your Ex-WfeWow you hit it on the nail! I didn’t think of it until you said it, “you feel more lonely when they are there” and that is bc my STBX ignores me and I literally have to find out things as she talks to her mom in front of me rather than her telling me…feel so disrespected in my own home. I need to get things situated financially before i can make moves. Wish us better outcomes this year! | /r/Divorce_Men | 06/01/23 09:27 AM |
| -2 | this sounds exactly like my ex over the last 6 monthsHonestly what is the point of labeling your ex wife a narcissist? How does it help you or the fact you are divorced? The funny thing is at one point you loved her to want to merry her and now she is just all these awful traits with none of the personality that you fell in love with? My STBX labels me this and it’s just dumb….it’s like needing an excuse to show everyone else why one needed to file for divorce….why not just plain and simple say I don’t love you anymore and move on. | /r/Divorce_Men | 06/01/23 06:47 AM |
| 3 | Temporarily Living With Your Ex-Wife or Soon-To-Be Your Ex-WfeI’m still living with my STBXW in our house with 2 kids and her mother. It is NOT easy, even if both are supposedly wanting the divorce and there is no such thing as amicable choice to divorce….The things that made the divorce a choice will still be there bc you just turn off your feelings no matter if you have separate areas in the house…bottom line is take this time to really plan your life after divorce…that was my problem and I was stuck in limbo and really still in limbo but I’m making it m… | /r/Divorce_Men | 06/01/23 06:34 AM |
| 1 | Welp. She just reached outAgreed and better to not be arguing in front of the children so much…it is though mind fak u bc than my stbxw start talking about things as if we still married and we going to be living together for long…that’s what puts me in limbo. I wonder if I should fold and just move out and start my life over..but than she wins and I don’t get to see my kids as often…catch 22 oh well I’m going suck it up for my kids | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/11/22 10:04 PM |
| 4 | Welp. She just reached outThank you, I just feel I do owe her even though I was working 2 jobs, taking care of our kid so she can go to school 100%. Im confused why I’m still doing the husband thing, whether it is to win her back or feel like I owe her …hate this limbo feeling. | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/11/22 08:30 AM |
| 12 | Welp. She just reached outI’m in limbo still living in the same house but sleeping in my office. Still doing all the husband thing and more bc though the divorce maybe my doing I can’t help but also feel she pulled away from me too and treated me like she was entitled. We just need to remind ourselves how crappy they treated us. I think about it every time I still do the husband duties and don’t know why I still do it …can I get the remote that fast fwd my life | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/11/22 07:59 AM |
| 4 | Questioning false police report100 so true, I thought I was giving g her space to figure things out about the marriage and then get the divorce papers and see she put down she takes care of the kids 90% WTF I was only out of the house a month. Saw that and I moved back in | /r/Divorce_Men | 20/11/22 05:55 PM |
| 1 | Sleeping in the office during the DivorceI wish I thought this through before just packing up, retreat moving out …worst thing to do with a divorce | /r/Divorce_Men | 14/11/22 01:10 AM |
| 2 | Sleeping in the office during the DivorceI’m in limbo not knowing to still do the husband thing or just say F that | /r/Divorce_Men | 12/11/22 04:22 AM |
| 3 | Sleeping in the office during the DivorceVery hard to do, I find myself still doing thing for her with no appreciation back…like just yesterday, first time having to take care of both our kids alone ( 2 month and a 3 yr old ) and she told me the night before that her mother ( who lives in our house ) has some things to do, so instead of her taking off school she just expected me to be home to take care of the kids bc I WFH …MIL was gone for 5 hrs and when they both got home not one asked me how it went or even bother talk to me…nice gu… | /r/Divorce_Men | 11/11/22 07:06 PM |
| 4 | Sleeping in the office during the DivorceExactly according to who, but most men are the ones who leave. Every friend of mine who is divorced moved out and the ex got the house wtf | /r/Divorce_Men | 11/11/22 06:02 PM |
| 4 | Ex shows up for no reason during my timeDivorce seems to bring the true colors in the person you thought you married. My STBX kicked me out of the house I paid for and was still paying for when she never worked or had to pay anything and decided to only let me see my only daughter from Friday after daycare to Sunday night….I had to fight to get more time and as the divorce papers start coming I see why, it was only so she can put that she takes care of my daughter 90% of the time to get more child support, unreal. | /r/Divorce_Men | 29/10/22 06:24 AM |
| 2 | told my wife the truth yesterdayThe alternative is much worst if this is the most grip you have about your wife in a divorce section. My advice is to really understand the issue and perhaps there is a compromise. | /r/Divorce_Men | 25/10/22 01:04 AM |
| 1 | STBX Wife already deleting our pictures on her Social MediaGood points! Will try, it’s tough…I need to hit the gym back to my pre marital shape | /r/Divorce_Men | 21/10/22 04:49 AM |
| 2 | STBX Wife already deleting our pictures on her Social MediaMan it’s so brutal to see family pictures just disappear as if we never existed…I am trying to not look …need to focus on myself thanks | /r/Divorce_Men | 20/10/22 11:39 PM |
| 1 | STBX Wife already deleting our pictures on her Social MediaThanks! | /r/Divorce_Men | 20/10/22 11:36 PM |
| 3 | STBX Wife already deleting our pictures on her Social MediaThanks facing the truth that she has moved on hurts | /r/Divorce_Men | 19/10/22 08:14 PM |
| 3 | STBX Wife already deleting our pictures on her Social MediaGreat analogy! If I look at past pics I can start to see when the relationship started to fade. Dam truth hurts | /r/Divorce_Men | 19/10/22 08:12 PM |
| 1 | I need help, advice and support.Then your lawyer dropped the ball, if you both wanted to sell the house it should be in the court order…I’m finding this out now that no matter how many years and money one has done for the other, divorce brings out the ugliness in people….I supported my STBX wife for 8 years, paid for everything and she didn’t even have to think about prices ( within reason I’m no millionaire but not poor ) but now she filed for divorce and wants everything on documents…unreal. | /r/Divorce_Men | 12/10/22 04:54 AM |
| 1 | I need help, advice and support.Did you request to sell the house as I have read that if both parties do not agree on what to do with the house that the judge would default to sell the house. That would help you not having to pay half the mortgage and if you have equity in the house half is yours. | /r/Divorce_Men | 12/10/22 12:16 AM |
| 1 | I still love my wife, she broke my trustNever stay with someone who cheated on you bc you will always resent them for it. | /r/Divorce_Men | 23/08/22 06:22 AM |
| 2 | Do whats best for me ?So sell the house and cars now? And let her worry where to live on her own even though she prego with my son and has another month to go? | /r/Divorce_Men | 14/08/22 10:12 AM |
| 2 | hitting me hard…Saturday night and kids in other room with their momWow, I'm almost in the same boat!...my advice is to NOT MOVE out until YOU want the divorce. That was my mistake, as once you move out its over. | /r/Divorce_Men | 14/08/22 09:38 AM |
