| 2 | Dating after divorce age gapThat explains it. And why are you in this group? It's for divorced men. By the way, over the past 3 years I've have multiple women under 30 show interest and try to pursue me that were not on OLD. I declined. So whose preceptor when a girl under 30 shows interest and pursues someone their 40's? Ridiculous. | /r/Divorce_Men | 06/07/26 07:49 PM |

| 4 | Dating after divorce age gapYeah, I have to pay my ex $6k a month in alimony and also helping two kids through college. I've had to lower my standard of living by a lot which means I am not a sugar daddy. I like to pay for everything in dating and buy nice things for them but I'm going to have to scale that way back. | /r/Divorce_Men | 06/07/26 08:53 AM |
| 3 | Dating after divorce age gapAwesome. Why do you think she is into you? What were the first few dates like? What did you do? My biggest fear of dating significantly younger is that they see me as a sugar daddy. I'm not in a position to be that for anyone anymore. My divorce financially destroyed me. | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/07/26 11:47 PM |

| 3 | Dating after divorce age gapI matched with a hot 29 year old. Been messaging back and forth and just blows me away she's interested in me since I'm 49m. Honestly my only interest in someone this age is a hook up and not a relationship so not sure how to approach it. | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/07/26 10:05 PM |

How did you approach that fact your not looking for a relationship? I've recently when on dates with two women and I have a hard time escalating things to the bedroom. | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/07/26 12:05 PM |
| 1 | What was dating like after being divorced?So how did you overcome your poor financial position in dating? Did you meet your current girlfriend when you were struggling financially? I was ruined financially but sounds like you may have been in worst shape than I am. I've been divorced for 2 years now and I've heald back on dating until recently because I am embarrassed that I have to rent an apartment now and have no retirement. Also had a pay cut at work. But I'm 49 and if I allow my current financial position to stop me from dating I'm… | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/07/26 12:02 PM |

| 1 | The Invisible FoundationOh and to add, I get left out of so many things for the kids. The old friend group includes her on bbqs, get together and trips. Sons graduation party will be at my ex in laws house and I won't be there. Daughter had a banquet last week at her college for her volleyball that parents usually go to, instead my ex and her mother went. She try's to plan all b day parties and celebrations at her parents house because she knows I won't go over there. | /r/Divorce_Men | 02/05/26 05:45 AM |
| 1 | The Invisible FoundationI'm there too. I pay child support when my son is with her, and pay when he's with me. And when anything comes up extra, I pay.

Makes me feel terrible but I know what boundaries I can't cross. | /r/Divorce_Men | 02/05/26 05:31 AM |
| 2 | GuidanceDo not leave your house. I made this mistake only because I could not handle being in the same house with here and I was afraid I'd do something that she would be able to use against me. I would never get physical but there was a lot of yelling and her screaming and I could not put up with it and didn't want the kids to witness us fighting. She even spit in my face one time. Then she claimed I pushed her which I didn't. I did out my fist through the bedroom door when she was gone out of anger. I… | /r/Divorce_Men | 02/05/26 05:26 AM |

| 7 | It never ends/ so angryNo prenup. No affair. Affair does not matter in CA. She actually had me sign a document about 10 years into marriage that if we got a divorce I would not get any of here inheritance she gets from her family. Her parents are very wealthy. Bought her a $1.6 million home on a gold course over looking the ocean when we divorced. No reason for her to ever get a job. | /r/Divorce_Men | 01/05/26 11:25 PM |

| 2 | It never ends/ so angryThat falls under the Gavron warning in California. It's a very vague law particularly when you have been married for 20 years and she never worked. He told me to wait a few years before I even attempt to go to court to enforce this. I know guys who have tried and failed and they are 10 years post divorce. I also have another stressful element to this in that I have worked for her father for 15 years. 100% commission and I've earned every penny. Landed all my accounts and he gave me nothing.

| 2 | Dating women with kidsSo, went out on a date with her yesterday. 30 minutes into the date her daughter calls her to come home to make dinner. Then calls her two more times during date. Then she proceeds to tell me I should date someone who is also an empty nester. She has her kids 100% of the time. Strange she agreed to the date in the first place. Lots of money questions. Needless to say, I'll be avoiding dating women with kids still at home. | /r/Divorce_Men | 09/04/26 09:14 PM |

I remember my attorney told me once the divorce is final, you just give her a set amount each month then that's it. Your done. I wish it was that easy. If you have kids there are so many expenses that come up even after the child upper is paid. I some needed a new phone and new tires this month. I asked her to use the money I give her to pay have and she refused. So frustrating. I wish … | /r/Divorce_Men | 15/10/25 05:03 AM |
| 16 | I walked away todayMy wife told me to leave. I spent a ton for hotels. It was a mistake. So I went back home and told her she can leave if she wants. I highly recommend you don't leave your home. | /r/Divorce_Men | 13/10/25 06:25 AM |

| 9 | Just realizedI'm convinced that every women will try to figure out what comments will hurt you the most and say those things when they want to hurt you. My ex told me she used her head and not her heart. Told me she had chemistry with other men but never me. Told me I'm worse than my father. And on and on. I'd like to say the comments didn't affect me but they did. | /r/Divorce_Men | 16/09/25 08:10 PM |

| 1 | Rebuilding seems impossibleI was seperated for 3 and divorced for one year now. She never worked. She just got a part time job as a tennis coach working 3 hours a day 5 days a week making minimum wage. She's not going to look for a full time good paying job because she does not have to. Her parents buy her whatever she wants. I'm in California. So unless she gets a job (the one she has doesn't really make a difference since she pays so little), or gets married I could be on the hook for life. They bought her a 1.5 million… | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/09/25 07:45 AM |
| 8 | Rebuilding seems impossibleSounds great. But I can't skip alimony. There are consequences for that. If I did, I could never go back to the USA again. That's not something I'm prepared to do. I want to be around my kids so I can spend time with them as the grow and start their families. My dad took off on me when I was young and has not been there for me in life. I won't run away and do the same thing to my kids. I say kids but their young adults. Still, I want to be close to experience life with them. | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/09/25 07:32 AM |

| 3 | Rebuilding seems impossibleI have $240 k from my home sell. I don't think that will last long. Even after alimony and child support there are still other expenses for my kids that come up. My daughter is in college and my son is going to college next year. I'll most likely spend the rest of what I have to support them through college. I don't get people who say your kids are on there own when they turn 18. They still have cars that need insurance, they still need medical insurance and cell phones. And the tuition cost and… | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/09/25 06:20 AM |
| 1 | I want to move on emotionally, but alimony won’t let meYeah they are. I've been going to therapy, gym and trying anything to try to get out of my depression and anger. Nothings worked so far. So sick of the constant anxiety and stress. I need relief. | /r/Divorce_Men | 02/09/25 11:32 PM |
| 1 | I want to move on emotionally, but alimony won’t let meI've thought about that. Even though my son is 18 and daughter is 20 I couldn't bring myself to move over seas. I still want to be able to see them when I can. And wouldn't be wise to skip the country and not pay alimony. I wouldn't be able to come back the US. | /r/Divorce_Men | 02/09/25 11:30 PM |
| 18 | Lifetime Alimony ☠️Get a lawyer asap. Like yesterday. Force the sell of the home and spilt the equity 50/50. If you don't have money for the lawyer you can find one that's willing to take you on if you tell them you will pay the attorney fees through escrow when you sell the home. This is what I had to do to retain an attorney. | /r/Divorce_Men | 02/09/25 06:23 PM |

Work from home and completely isolated. I'm extremely lonely and feel like there is no point of living if I have to be alone the rest of my life.

And they will make sure if that. She won't have to work for them to get money and some day a huge inheritance. I'm not sure how much cash they give her a month. They bought her a house but it's in their name so technically it's theirs. They bought her a second car but I'm sure that's most likely a company car.
