| 3 | Why are men so bad at making friends?Sounds familiar. I was chastised because I wasn't "spending time with her and the kids" this was after I started scheduling tee times at 7am. I would get home by 11 or 12 and a lot of times they had only been awake for a couple hours by then. | /r/Divorce_Men | 02/08/24 08:34 PM |
| 3 | Why are men so bad at making friends?I used to love playing golf, at first she went along with it, but eventually she began trying to prevent me from going. It took her about 18 months, but she ultimately made it so unpleasant for me every time I played that I just stopped going. | /r/Divorce_Men | 02/08/24 08:27 PM |
| 17 | Just a thought… It’s shocking how Promiscuous women become during/after the divorce proceedings… in almost all cases though, I’ve seen it end badly for them. Anyone else notice this pattern?This has been a known stat for years. After divorce men's quality of life increases and the woman's decreases (in most cases, obviously there are exceptions). Even with my own parents who are divorced, my dad is fairly well off and my mom isn't sure how she'll make it once she's too old to work. The thing is that this fact isn't apparent in the early years following a divorce, for a while it can seem like the woman is "winning", but eventually the child support runs out and they are completely f… | /r/Divorce_Men | 27/07/24 07:25 AM |
| 3 | Just got hit with the “i want a divorce” how should i feel rnI'm not divorced but I'm on this sub because I feel like it could eventually happen. My 2 cents? My wife has said "I want a divorce" many times, as have I. We're still together. She may not actually pursue this whatsoever | /r/Divorce_Men | 27/07/24 04:33 AM |
| 3 | What are the top things that you don’t missLook how much money I saved. I was gonna order this $20 thing online, but it said if I spent $100 I could get free shipping! I just saved $9 by spending $75 on stuff we don't even need or want! | /r/Divorce_Men | 26/07/24 03:26 PM |

| 3 | Has your and your Ex’s upbringing influenced your marriage and divorce?Yes, very similar to yours. Bio dad never in the picture, weak willed step father that her mom essentially bullied for 20 years until he had enough and left, now MIL is a bitter old woman. The main problem I think is that when they were kids the stepfather would try to discipline them, but MIL would tell them things like, "you don't have to listen to him, he's not your dad". This explains the shit attitude and lack of respect, constant undermining, etc that caused so many problems in our marriag… | /r/Divorce_Men | 22/07/24 02:28 PM |
| 4 | It's INSANE that even in male-dominated forums, the shortcomings of modern femininity, like a lack of accountability and toxicity towards men, are often still blamed on men. This seems to be one of the few places where such issues can logically be discussed..There's no "right" move | /r/Divorce_Men | 22/07/24 02:29 AM |
| 5 | Why do I have homicidal feelings?My only advice, don't start drinking. It will only make things worse and you'll be more likely to act on your violent ideations | /r/Divorce_Men | 15/07/24 09:22 PM |
| 2 | Leaving my wife.Damn, this sounds exactly like my wife and MIL. MIL is twice divorced because of the same behavior and the more time that goes by the more I feel like one of these beaten dogs that eventually had enough and left, like you said the older she gets the more she becomes like her mom. Good for you having the balls to move forward. I don't know how much more disrespect I can take, but I'm sure I'll get there soon enough | /r/Divorce_Men | 15/07/24 05:53 PM |

| 1 | I hate my wifeIf you really want to fuck with her start doing some crazy shit. Like go on a drinking bender for several days without calling, don't pay bills so the cable or electricity gets shut off, start smoking meth. She'll definitely pay attention to you then and also will start trying to get you back on track to continue her lifestyle. It sounds crazy but it will work. You gotta shock the system | /r/Divorce_Men | 17/06/24 04:49 AM |
| 4 | Have there been any updates from the guy who found out his new partner slept with over 100 guys?This is pretty much what I was thinking too. I know a guy who at one time was banging a couple different chicks every week. He's not particularly good looking, no money, still lives with his mother, etc. The women he hooks up with are all fat slobs, with poor hygiene and other issues. It's like George Carlin said, "I never fucked a 10, but this one night I fucked five 2s!" | /r/Divorce_Men | 16/06/24 06:48 PM |

| 2 | I feel like I’m the only one?I'm still married, I come on this sub because I feel like divorce is a big possibility for me. What I will say is that if I do end up divorcing I can't imagine myself ever putting any effort into chasing another woman or maintaining a relationship with one. I'm completely and utterly exhausted in that regard. | /r/Divorce_Men | 17/05/24 05:52 PM |

The family and her child's stability doesn't matter.Its crazy how a stable husband and father who is responsible and provides winds up being thought of as boring. Yeah, it might be boring sometimes because the guy is doing everything by the book to ensure there is a consistent and safe home environment | /r/Divorce_Men | 19/04/24 05:23 PM |

| 7 | I never want to do this again.Yes. The thing I'm coming to understand and attempting to come to terms with is that this isn't necessarily women's fault, it's programmed into their DNA. I watch a lot of nature programs about primates and females exhibit this exact behavior. The "alpha" male is only as good what he is currently providing and any indication of weakness or anything is met with him being exiled from the pack and another male replacing him.You would think that as humans capable of rational thought and reasoning th… | /r/Divorce_Men | 22/03/24 08:28 PM |
| 5 | I never want to do this again.I'm in the same boat, I'm still married and that's how I feel a lot of the time. It's kind of like they see us as a sort of utilitarian entity, our only purpose being to provide things they need or carry out tasks they need done. Can't have your pesky "long term wants/needs" interfering with that | /r/Divorce_Men | 22/03/24 08:21 PM |

They love that you have a good job and money to support them They love that you have a job title that sounds impressive when they brag to their friends They love a new, leased Lexus every 3 years They love the big house So they don't really love "you", they love what they get by being with you. A man in our society is judged not by his character or personality, being a good person, etc. it's all about what type of tangible assets you ca… | /r/Divorce_Men | 22/03/24 04:51 PM |
| 1 | For years I've been trained to tiptoe around her schedule. Today, I discovered that is no longer the caseYup, the time thing is what gets me. I've seen it explained on this subreddit and it comes down to us being viewed as a utility by women. Basically the way you think of your car or a microwave or something. Imagine you go to warm up some leftover pizza but you can't cuz your microwave is out golfing with its buddy the toaster. That's how women feel about us having our own time or not taking part in their activities | /r/Divorce_Men | 18/03/24 11:23 PM |
| 3 | For years I've been trained to tiptoe around her schedule. Today, I discovered that is no longer the caseThis reminds me of our "vacations" where she would sleep in until noon and then want to just lay around the hotel on her phone, we couldn't go out and do anything until like 3pm. Then we go out for a few hours, eat dinner, now she's tired and wants to go back to the room. Of course we would always end up in an argument because I'm not happy paying money to be on vacation just to sit in a room half the time, we can do that at home for free!

There's a part of me that just wants to walk away from it all, wife, kids, family, just move like 1000 miles away and never look back. It feels selfish, but at the same time why should I be selfless? I've been playing the family man role for almost 20 years and I'm just bored to death and feel like there is very little to look forward to.

Because our marriage is so volatile and my wife is constantly playing the victim, my kids now see me as an ogre.

| 5 | My MIL and BIL are destroying our marriageDamn, that sounds familiar. My wife's dad and stepfather were the same way, her mom ran all over both of them with verbal and mental abuse. Both marriages failed. The problem we've had is that my wife grew up in this environment and expects to essentially rule over me and dictate everything I do. I have refused to live this way which will inevitably lead our marriage to fail as there is a constant battle of wills. | /r/Divorce_Men | 29/02/24 04:10 PM |

I ended up getting really into it and was making very good progress. My wife was very encouraging and would say she was glad I was getting healthy. Well, about 18 months into my new lifestyle she started to have an issue with my gym routine and meticulous dieting.

| 3 | Why is it so hard to watch recent ex wife date?Luckily for me she still wants to have sex quite often so I'm satisfied with the frequency, but there are definitely areas that I'm not so happy with. For instance, she is pretty selfish in bed, it's all about her getting off and she almost never gives oral, like once a year if I'm lucky. Like you said though, I'm afraid of the unknown. Some of these fears are probably irrational like I worry that maybe I'm not even very good at sex, but my wife just doesn't know it since we got together so youn… | /r/Divorce_Men | 13/02/24 06:14 AM |
| 2 | Why is it so hard to watch recent ex wife date?Thanks man, I would actually love to get back into shape. A few years ago I was heavily into the gym/bodybuilding and I actually looked pretty good for a while, felt good about myself too. Probably what I should do is get back in there, might make me feel better about the idea of divorce. That last part you said is important to, nobody is gonna give a fuck that my ex wife is with a new guy, it doesn't mean anything | /r/Divorce_Men | 13/02/24 06:06 AM |
| 5 | Why is it so hard to watch recent ex wife date?I feel like being with another woman and that confidence boost would make it more palatable knowing your ex is with someone else. It is tough though. Personally I don't even know how I would approach a woman and have things lead to sex. Being married for so long I fear that I have no "game". This is another thing that keeps me in the marriage, the fear/knowledge that my wife would start sleeping with someone new much sooner than I likely would, I guess you're living it and are surviving so maybe… | /r/Divorce_Men | 13/02/24 05:58 AM |
| 4 | Why is it so hard to watch recent ex wife date?Clearly she resented you being there for your mother and sister. If your ex wife is anything like mine she would have preferred that you just let your mom rot and forget about her. Reading posts on this sub has helped me realize a lot about how the female mind works. The way they think of us is that we are basically a utility, only existing to serve their interests.

It's a species whose minds somehow function in the absence of logic and reason and are driven almost entirely by emotion and personal perception of reality.

I haven't been happy for several years but stick around and do everything I can to try to keep the marriage going because I'm too afraid of what divorce would look like. Namely her with another guy, I feel like that would destroy me. One question I have, do you think if you were to have sex with someone else that it would help?

My wife refused to work for our entire marriage, she didn't care that we were broke as long as it meant she wouldn't have to get off her ass. | /r/Divorce_Men | 11/02/24 08:20 PM |
| 2 | Men are you okay with Woman on this sub commenting and posting?They can't help themselves | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/02/24 12:29 AM |
| 13 | Men are you okay with Woman on this sub commenting and posting?The only comments I ever see here from women are defending other women's horrible behavior or something along the lines of "not all women are like this, I treat my husband like a king blah blah blah" The last thing anyone on this sub needs or wants to hear is an opinion from a woman. It would be like me going into a rape victim sub to provide a male perspective, and let them know that not all men are predators because I have not personally raped anyone | /r/Divorce_Men | 09/02/24 11:01 PM |
| 3 | How do/did you deal with the feeling of betrayal? (mixed race couple, maybe relevant?)I think it is definitely relevant that you mentioned the cultural difference. As you have now learned, Western women don't think much of getting a divorce which is why more than half of all marriages in the US end that way. They know that they are holding all the cards (in most cases) when it comes to divorce so they are much more willing to consider divorce than men | /r/Divorce_Men | 08/02/24 09:39 PM |
| 8 | Let me go or take me backYou could drive yourself crazy trying to figure out her motives. Maybe the new bf is just a pawn on the chess board, maybe she actually loves the guy, as far as you're concerned NONE OF THAT MATTERS. You are divorced, you don't need to deal with her or any of her mind games. Stop worrying about what she is trying to do and just focus on your own life and your kids. Keep communication with your ex to a bare minimum, the only subject you and she discuss is the kids, period. | /r/Divorce_Men | 04/02/24 11:37 PM |
| 17 | Wife tells me she wants to stay together before our divorce gets finalized.Don't let her jerk you around like this. What will most likely happen is things will go well for 2-3 months and then she'll be right back to wanting the divorce. This is a terrible situation for your mental well-being | /r/Divorce_Men | 04/02/24 05:05 PM |
| 3 | What do young women care about these days? I guess having a baby together wasn’t enough. Being a father to her son wasn’t enough. Moving across the country for her wasn’t enough. Buying her gifts wasn’t enough. Getting married wasn’t enough. Buying a family home wasn’t enough.Yup they crave drama in many cases, so someone like OP who was doing all the right things seems boring. He should have cheated on her or became a gambling addict, or something, that would have created enough drama | /r/Divorce_Men | 02/02/24 11:10 PM |

| 3 | Dying on the inside looking at my wifes credit card history...I never felt like I settled either, I married my wife because I loved her, she was loyal and I felt like I could trust her, all reasons one might think of that would make you want to marry someone. A lot of women unfortunately have a whole laundry list of requirements before they'd even consider marrying a man, like can this guy get me the big house and leased Lexus? | /r/Divorce_Men | 30/01/24 11:13 PM |
| 6 | Dying on the inside looking at my wifes credit card history...From my experience they care more about outward appearance than men do. It's very important to them to have the big house, new car every couple years, big engagement ring, fancy clothes and purses, hair and nails done, etc. What do all of these things have in common? They're all just things that other people will see and will allow the woman to feel superior to others. That's my take anyway. In most cases women marry up, men will often marry down, I guess it makes sense as the two sexes have ver… | /r/Divorce_Men | 30/01/24 08:21 PM |

| 5 | Too many of the online resources for men's emotional support seem to be red pilled garbageIt's definitely about working on yourself first and not being so worried about a woman or women in general. The idea is that if you have your shit together and are not so hung up on this one woman that they will instinctively treat you with respect and work to maintain the relationship. Personally I have read a lot into RP stuff and especially the married red pill sub and while I have not fully committed to it or necessarily practice it, I do find it quite interesting.

| 3 | Don't fear asking your wife/girlfriend to do what she is supposed to do in the marriageThat's interesting, my wife is a SAHM, but the part the caught my attention is how the character from the book won't let anyone else watch the kid. My wife was the exact same way, we couldn't even go out on a date because she wouldn't leave our kid with anyone. Not even her own mother | /r/Divorce_Men | 03/01/24 03:45 AM |
| 5 | Just a ‘Friend’!Yeah, plus many people will stay in a bad marriage "for the kids". IMO the reality is that divorce just sucks more if you have kids, obviously because of child support but also because you have to stay in contact with the ex wife. If one could just divorce and never have to see or talk to the ex again it would be a much easier experience | /r/Divorce_Men | 02/01/24 04:55 PM |
| 8 | M doing the right thing. Right?Bro, stop letting her shit on you like this. You may not realize this but by accepting this you are doing catastrophic damage to your own self esteem, self image and mental health. You are hurting yourself by staying in this relationship. It will be difficult but you will feel so much better in the end if you end it immediately, you need to preserve the last shreds of dignity and self respect you have left | /r/Divorce_Men | 02/01/24 04:44 PM |
| 12 | Just a ‘Friend’!There was a lot of this when I first met my wife, not so much later on. When I first met her she had a few guys that she had friendzoned and these fuckers would just orbit her. Once she got pregnant most, if not all of them stopped calling/texting and this was enough for her to realize that they were just trying to fuck her the entire time. | /r/Divorce_Men | 02/01/24 03:30 PM |
| 10 | Don't fear asking your wife/girlfriend to do what she is supposed to do in the marriageThis really is the attitude. Being with a wife like this feels like being an indentured servant, basically you work full time and during off work hours you are required to dedicate 100% of that time to her and the kids. I remember I used to like to go play golf, I'd go to the driving range a few times a month and play 18 holes 3-4 times per month. My wife couldn't stand this. She would gripe and complain constantly any time I had plans to play. It got to the point that I started making my tee ti… | /r/Divorce_Men | 02/01/24 02:57 PM |
| 8 | Wife gave me an insight into her angle to get more money during divorce.Imagine paying someone $100k to sit in the living room half the day smoking pot while playing on her phone and watching Lifetime.

| 1 | Need advice she keeps bring up divorce. I don't want one.Sounds like my wife, she will PMS for almost a week before her period comes and then it takes another week for her to go back to normal. This means that she is like this 50% of the time. I'm actually dealing with it right now, the day after Christmas she started saying all this shit and that she wants a divorce. It's definitely not normal PMS behavior either, she acts like she fuckin hates me for two weeks and will just start sobbing and stuff | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/12/23 08:38 PM |
| 1 | Should I go off the grid?Bro, I feel this way too. If I could just disappear somewhere I would. My kid is almost all grown up, and her mom turned the kid against me over the past several years.
