| 6 | How to survive silver bullet divorceYou will find out who your true friends are. And a lot of the men are just out there naively thinking they are glad they aren't you and they know they are next so maybe they aren't contacting you. But they will. Eventually you will have more people who wind up just like you and you will be their coach. | /r/Divorce_Men | 23/07/26 02:53 AM |

| 10 | Lost an amazing wife and can’t accept itSome relationships repair and get back together. Some needed that break to reset because you realize you truly loved each other. But really you have to ask yourself if yours is that relationship after such a long period of no contact. I can bet $100 there's a lot of things you don't know that she's not telling you and she's just looking for validation and a safe place until she can find the right person for herself.

It doesn't love you back it's just a car. No matter how special it is to you. It doesn't love you back the same. You're putting all your hopes and dreams into another person.

| 11 | Results of a Divorce from the 60sRight and if "mom kept him away" I bet there's a reason he was right up the road and not doing anything. I've seen it myself. With the threat of law enforcement and government agencies who will break your back and destroy your life based on nothing but a hint of an allegation sometimes it's safer to quietly live up the road.

| 10 | She would never cheat, right?The percent could be tied to the amount of active duty days they were married during his career. So she wasn't married to him the full 100% of the time he was on active duty she was likely married to him 70% of the time.

But then they lose this facade about you. I think that happened with my wife I opened up to her about my childhood and issues and of course she wrote them all down to use later against me. It's a fine line between finding somebody you can trust and open up to and knowing if they will use it against you or look down on you. It's a risk either way. | /r/Divorce_Men | 12/06/25 04:54 PM |

The buyout part can be negotiated because you would pay half of the closing costs if you were to sell it and it is in the children's interest to stay in the house.
