| 5 | What sort of woman stops a man from having his kids 50/50 for no reason?!Another BS reason my ex gave me was…she wants them to have something “routine to be consistent” and wants them to “grow up in the house they’ve been in”. Both bullshit as we can make 50/50 “consistent” and they are going to have 2 homes. Not 1. All BS from the real reason. I haven’t complained much because the 4 months in I keep taking the kids on days she should have them because of her hectic work requirements and will actually have them 50% time, if not more…it’s just not what the court order… | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/05/25 05:49 PM |
| 5 | What sort of woman stops a man from having his kids 50/50 for no reason?!Ego, Reputation, Control, Child Support, sometimes it being frowned upon from societies norms. I have about 46/54 and she just couldn’t go 50/50 and the state i’m in doesn’t allow 50/50 unless we both agreed to it. I still don’t know the reason why, and I’ve asked multiple times but I’m sure it’s a combination of a few things I mentioned above. | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/05/25 01:41 PM |
| 1 | STBX sitting on final decree..why?More than likely not. Just trying to figure out why without asking her. | /r/Divorce_Men | 23/05/25 01:31 AM |
| 1 | STBX sitting on final decree..why?No I did not. We agreed to terms during mediation and the decree was to be written up | /r/Divorce_Men | 22/05/25 03:19 PM |
| 3 | Remaining in the marital homeOr she could file temp orders with the divorce that she has full access to the house. | /r/Divorce_Men | 23/04/25 06:11 PM |
| 1 | Need Advice for Mediation - FinancialsNo home, I don’t have a 401K, nothing, She has a 100k in 401k, 50k bonus, 75k in restricted stock. We both have 30k debt post marriage. She also has 100k student loans and makes 4x the amount i do. She makes so much because I supported the kids, moved three times for her career, and turned down multiple job opportunities making 40k more so I could have a job where I would be able to take care of the kids because she could not due to her time demanding career. She thinks I should get nothing | /r/Divorce_Men | 11/02/25 07:09 AM |
| 1 | Need Advice for Mediation - FinancialsI agree one thing though I am concerned of is she has 100k in student loans that she got after we were married to enhance her career. Would I be on the hook for half of this? She got her masters and that’s the reason her income is 4X mine… | /r/Divorce_Men | 11/02/25 04:17 AM |
| 1 | Need Advice for Mediation - FinancialsSo an update. Met with her to discuss all these before mediation and she isn’t willing to give me a dime. None of her 401k, none of her bonus, none of her stock. | /r/Divorce_Men | 11/02/25 04:08 AM |
| 1 | Need Advice for Mediation - FinancialsHave them 45% to her 55% and her overall income is $425K to my $100K. Welcome to Texas bro, it’s standard as far as child support. The fathers get fucked | /r/Divorce_Men | 11/02/25 04:06 AM |
| 1 | Need Advice for Mediation - FinancialsThat’s the way I’m leaning | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/02/25 10:08 PM |
| 2 | Need Advice for Mediation - FinancialsNot in Texas. If she has 1 more day than me on physical custody the other parent pays 20% of thier net income for child support | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/02/25 09:28 PM |
| 1 | Need Advice for Mediation - FinancialsSo you think start with half her assets in mediation? | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/02/25 07:18 PM |
| 1 | Need Advice for Mediation - FinancialsSo a little summary, I don’t have any more money to fight for custody in trial. We basically agree on custody…how should I go into mediation tk prevent it from going to trial? | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/02/25 06:59 PM |
| 2 | Need Advice for Mediation - FinancialsTexas doesn’t do that unless you have been married 10 years. We were married 7 | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/02/25 06:37 PM |
| 1 | Need Advice for Mediation - FinancialsIf we agree on custody and no child support in mediation would asset division be the only thing we go to trial for if we don’t agree on that during mediation? | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/02/25 06:35 PM |
| 1 | Need Advice for Mediation - FinancialsWould try but I’m tapped out financially, and yes I’ve completely exhausted my resources. | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/02/25 05:41 PM |
| 1 | Need Advice for Mediation - FinancialsYeah I know. BUT I’m tapped out financially and now have added $20K in debt. Don’t have another $20K for a custody trial…and yes, I’ve completely exhausted my resources. | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/02/25 05:40 PM |
| 2 | Need Advice for Mediation - FinancialsThey don’t have alimony in Texas | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/02/25 02:21 PM |
| 2 | Need Advice for Mediation - FinancialsI don’t think so in Texas. In Texas if the other parent has then just 1 day more the non custodial parent would be due child support if we brought it up to a judge. Texas uses a calculator and the non custodial parent based on 2 kids would need to pay 20% of thier net income. Now given that there is a LARGE income dilatory I would wouldn’t have to pay that much but here would prob still have to pay something if she pushed for it. | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/02/25 02:12 PM |
| 1 | Need Advice for Mediation - FinancialsI think there is some confusion here. I’m fine staying with the 55/45 custody for the final orders as I will end up seeing them 50% of the time anyway. Although I technically don’t agree I don’t have any more money to fight this in a trial. My concern is if I ask for 50% of her financials that she will then say “well you need to pay me child support now”. That’s why do you think my best coarse woukd be to ask for 30-40% of the financials to get this finalized in mediation so we don’t have to go … | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/02/25 01:50 PM |
| 1 | Need Advice for Mediation - FinancialsYeah I know. But my question is about the financials, not custody. I am fine on how the custody is now cause I will see my kids 50> of the time | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/02/25 11:51 AM |
| 2 | How did you handle your ex’s birthday every year (during and after divorce).By not giving a fuck | /r/Divorce_Men | 04/02/25 06:32 AM |
| 19 | Divorce modification: Ex asking to take off geographical restriction.Fight this. Keep it Harris county. A Texas judge will never change the geographic restriction as this is not in the best interest of the child for your visitation and relationship with the child. DO NOT include other counties, keep it in the same county where you live. Do not let her do this. | /r/Divorce_Men | 02/01/25 05:17 PM |
| 3 | Man being away from my kids for 2 nights is killing me.Standard Possession Order. It’s what gets assigned for custody in Texas. Basically I get them 154 night a year give or take | /r/Divorce_Men | 02/01/25 06:27 AM |

| 5 | Man being away from my kids for 2 nights is killing me.Mine too. Have 45/55 with ex although I think she will be flexible if I want to see the kids. Just killing me not seeing them every single day | /r/Divorce_Men | 02/01/25 02:55 AM |
| 2 | First night in new apartmentCouldn’t afford the rental house by myself short term or long term, didn’t have the money to keep battling during the temp orders. Long term I couldn’t afford the place by myself anyway so I would have been moving out at some point. | /r/Divorce_Men | 02/01/25 02:34 AM |

| 1 | Is day care normally included in child support?What about in Texas? | /r/Divorce_Men | 26/12/24 03:56 PM |
| 2 | How did you decide what place to get not know if you’ll pay, child support, alimony?Yeah not getting 50/50 unfortunately. In Texas. | /r/Divorce_Men | 26/12/24 03:13 PM |
| 1 | How did you decide what place to get not know if you’ll pay, child support, alimony?Understand this. Unfortunately I am unable to afford the rent long term. and my sbtx makes 4x I do and can afford to stay in it | /r/Divorce_Men | 26/12/24 02:50 PM |
| 1 | I’ve spend $8K and just through temp orders….No | /r/Divorce_Men | 22/12/24 11:25 PM |
| 7 | I’ve spend $8K and just through temp orders….I’m already to the point where I can’t fight any more because I don’t have any more money, my credit is shit, cards maxed out. I’m just depressed. | /r/Divorce_Men | 20/12/24 03:17 AM |
| 3 | 2 of my 4 witnesses fell out the day before temp order hearing…Got 45/55. Not good, but not bad. Dont have to pay child support | /r/Divorce_Men | 19/12/24 02:51 AM |
| 2 | 2 of my 4 witnesses fell out the day before temp order hearing…Yeah that’s the plan, stbx provided a proposal and I provided a counter..hoping they accept before the hearing | /r/Divorce_Men | 18/12/24 02:04 AM |
| 1 | Temp orders hearing this week..any advice?Why does it make a huge difference? | /r/Divorce_Men | 17/12/24 07:06 AM |
| 1 | Temp orders hearing this week..any advice?Yes I have a lawyer and countered. Countered with the same exact stuff she did. | /r/Divorce_Men | 17/12/24 02:58 AM |
| 1 | Wife wants M-F, I want 50/50. How to get her to agree?It’s the default for Texas family court law. | /r/Divorce_Men | 16/12/24 03:09 AM |
| 1 | Did your temp orders become final orders?All in with base, bonus, restricted stock units its $385K to $110K. | /r/Divorce_Men | 15/12/24 04:40 PM |
| 2 | Wife “wants us to be great co-parents” but she is asking for it ALL…That’s just what my attorney did. Basically in my counter petition I am asking for the same things she is but also added spousal support | /r/Divorce_Men | 15/12/24 03:18 AM |
| 1 | Wife wants M-F, I want 50/50. How to get her to agree?Nope, not in Texas. It will be 57/43 if we don’t agree on 50/50 | /r/Divorce_Men | 14/12/24 09:58 PM |
| 1 | Did your temp orders become final orders?Yes, I don’t agree with 57/43 and me being the non primary parent. I want 50/50 and no child support from either parent and a judge will sign off on it if we both agree. Why should I have to see my kids 40% of the time and pay her child support (25% of net income) when she makes 4x the amount I do? I also feel that I am the current primary parent. | /r/Divorce_Men | 13/12/24 10:47 PM |
| 1 | Did your temp orders become final orders?Texas doesn’t have 50/50. It’s 57/43 for temp order and final unless we both agree on 50/50. She won’t agree on 50/50. | /r/Divorce_Men | 13/12/24 09:49 PM |
| 1 | Wife “wants us to be great co-parents” but she is asking for it ALL…Have a lawyer. My counter petition is asking for the exact same things she is asking for and I am fully prepared to be the primary because I always have. Would like this to be 50/50 though because it is what is best for the kids. | /r/Divorce_Men | 13/12/24 03:25 PM |
| 1 | Temp orders for custody, do I ask my daughter’s teacher to testify?She is willing to testify. Believe she will get a subpoena because so she has an excuse for not being at school that day. | /r/Divorce_Men | 13/12/24 03:22 PM |
| 2 | Wife “wants us to be great co-parents” but she is asking for it ALL…Thats what I have done | /r/Divorce_Men | 13/12/24 03:20 PM |

| 1 | Texas - Child Support?In Texas? What county did 50/50? | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/12/24 02:41 PM |
| 1 | Wife wants M-F, I want 50/50. How to get her to agree?This study is the exact reason why I want 50/50 custody and be great co-parents. Anything less is detrimental to the children’s mental health. It is exactly what is best for the kids. I don’t care or want any of her money. I just want want what is best for our kids | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/12/24 03:51 AM |

| 1 | Wife wants M-F, I want 50/50. How to get her to agree?I’m in Texas. Judge won’t sign off on 50/50 custody unless both parents agree. It will be 57/43 if we don’t agree. | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/12/24 01:59 AM |

| 1 | Geographic location?My question is how likely is it that she would get this ..even with primary custody? I assume it would be extremely difficult with me being the primary caretaker. | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/12/24 04:18 AM |
| 1 | Geographic location?She wants to be open to job opportunities or move back home | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/12/24 04:17 AM |

| 0 | Daycare/School/Dr recordsMy attorney stated that my STBX attorney could say “ how do we know these weren’t forged” etc | /r/Divorce_Men | 04/12/24 08:33 PM |

| 1 | What you want VS what you can getI have an attorney. Part of the petition says we can split our joint accounts. Also I know you say do not move out but I can’t afford the rent( l know could ask for temp spousal support) but her homeless parent also lives with us and I also can’t afford the rent when it’s finalized and I’m terrified of a false DV, etc. | /r/Divorce_Men | 04/12/24 05:52 PM |
| 1 | What you want VS what you can getEven custody? So I should ask for primary custody even though I am willing to take 50/50? | /r/Divorce_Men | 04/12/24 05:43 PM |
| 1 | What you want VS what you can getProposal we have a hearing in a couple weeks. They are for her to be the primary parent with me seeing the kids every other weekend and couple hours on Thursday. Exclusive use of our rental house ( I can’t afford the rent when all said and done so I will prob be looking for a new place), child support, pay for thier health insurance premiums, pay for her attorney fees (she makes 4x the money I do), no geographic location. | /r/Divorce_Men | 04/12/24 05:42 PM |
| 1 | What you want VS what you can getShe borrowed 30K from her 401K to pay for her attorney as well as getting another 20k loan | /r/Divorce_Men | 04/12/24 02:48 PM |
| 1 | What you want VS what you can getTexas does not have 50/50 physical custody in their family court code. The only way to get 50/50 custody from a judge is if both parents agree to it | /r/Divorce_Men | 04/12/24 02:47 PM |
| 1 | Texas - 50/50 custody, visitation?Yeah but you both agreed to this. My wife won’t | /r/Divorce_Men | 04/12/24 08:09 AM |
| 2 | What you want VS what you can getWhat do you suggest I do? She has temp orders and she is prepared to ram them through in the next few weeks.. | /r/Divorce_Men | 04/12/24 07:43 AM |
| 1 | Creative 50/50 schedule?Trust me man I want to fight like hell…I just don’t have the financial means to do it. She does. I don’t know how I can keep fighting when I can’t pay for it..bothers me so much | /r/Divorce_Men | 04/12/24 06:48 AM |
| 2 | Texas - 50/50 custody, visitation?And the parents didn’t agree? | /r/Divorce_Men | 03/12/24 06:38 PM |
| 1 | Texas - 50/50 custody, visitation?Unfortunately it’s not. It’s not even in thier family court code. One parent is the primary custodial and the other is just custodial. Visitation is for the custodial parent to get the standard possession order which is every other weekend and Thursday for a couple hours or expanded standard possession order which is a few more days. The only time it’s 50/50 is when both parents agree: | /r/Divorce_Men | 03/12/24 04:29 AM |

| 1 | Affidavits and records?Do I at least talk to the school and daycare workers to ask them if they would provide an afadavit and /or be on the look out for my attorney tea CJ ing out to get one? | /r/Divorce_Men | 02/12/24 02:27 PM |
| 3 | STBXW wants to all of a sudden take care of the kidsI see what she is trying to do. I have been documenting things for awhile. | /r/Divorce_Men | 02/12/24 01:56 PM |
| 1 | How did you decide on a place to live not knowing if you’ll be on the hook for child support?There isn’t alimony Texas unless we have been married 10 years. We have been married 8. Only thing I could possibly get is temporary spousal support for a few months. | /r/Divorce_Men | 01/12/24 11:39 PM |
| 1 | How did you decide on a place to live not knowing if you’ll be on the hook for child support?I can’t afford the rent. She makes 4x the amount as me. Her aunt lives with us because she can’t get a job. Regardless I won’t be able to stay in the house when this is finalized because I can’t afford it. I’m also concerned if I try and stay in the house or try to kick her out she may make a false DV accusation. It’s very tense right now. Should I ask to stay in the house and comparent until this is finalized? No sure if that’s a good idea | /r/Divorce_Men | 01/12/24 11:20 PM |
| 1 | How did you decide on a place to live not knowing if you’ll be on the hook for child support?She hasn’t got it yet but it’s in her petition. We have a hearing on it next month. No accusations | /r/Divorce_Men | 01/12/24 11:15 PM |
| 1 | How did you decide on a place to live not knowing if you’ll be on the hook for child support?She put a temp order in for exclusive use of the house. I can’t afford the rent and our MIL lives with us. | /r/Divorce_Men | 01/12/24 11:09 PM |
| 1 | How did you decide on a place to live not knowing if you’ll be on the hook for child support?Oh yeah for sure. Definitely going to get same county or surrounding counties. That’s not an option. | /r/Divorce_Men | 01/12/24 11:08 PM |
| 3 | How did you decide on a place to live not knowing if you’ll be on the hook for child support?Texas they don’t have 50% in the family code. Judge will only agree to 50% if both parents agree. Since she won’t agree to 50% I feel the only option I have is to go for primary. If she has one more night night than me throughout the year I’m on the hook for the entire child support. Yes, it’s fucked up. | /r/Divorce_Men | 01/12/24 04:48 PM |
| 1 | Did your wife file and not tell you?I’m not trying to prolong anything. I’ve been home, work from home, etc. not sure why I haven’t been served | /r/Divorce_Men | 30/11/24 08:44 PM |
| 3 | Did your wife file and not tell you?Life insurance in the event that I die she still gets paid child support, she is going for primary custody so as well as child support she believe I should pay that as well. | /r/Divorce_Men | 30/11/24 05:17 AM |
| 3 | Did your wife file and not tell you?Good question. | /r/Divorce_Men | 30/11/24 04:55 AM |
| 5 | Did your wife file and not tell you?She is an executive. She has been asking for a separation for awhile and I said no because it’s not good for the kids and she doesn’t want to work on anything during the separation so she wanted a divorce if no seperation | /r/Divorce_Men | 30/11/24 04:53 AM |
| 2 | Did your wife file and not tell you?Any advice, I have an atttorney but she can bleed me out long term due to her making so much more money than me? | /r/Divorce_Men | 30/11/24 01:32 AM |
| 2 | Did your wife file and not tell you?Texas doesn’t have 50/50 in the family law code unless both parents agree to it. She will not agree to it. I think my only option is to reply with standard possession order for her or expanded standard for her only which would give me more time than her with the kids and she would have to pay child support.

| 2 | How much was your divorce? Did it go to trial?Any advice from yall on limiting fees? My wife won’t settle on anything but M-F visitation for her . That’s our one and only sticking point. I don’t want any of her money, just want to see my kids half the time. If she brings up mediation I’ll tell her to send the proposal and anything less than 50% visitation I don’t want to talk about it | /r/Divorce_Men | 26/11/24 11:02 PM |
| 2 | How much was your divorce? Did it go to trial?Wow you only spent $5.5K and it went all the way to trial? Since she makes 4x the amount I do my attorney is going out an order in for us to make a trust for our attorney fees so she doesn’t try and bleed this out or have her pay for them or the majority of them. | /r/Divorce_Men | 26/11/24 10:56 PM |
| 4 | How much was your divorce? Did it go to trial?She is going to try and bleed me out. She makes $350k a year to my 100k. I’m broke | /r/Divorce_Men | 26/11/24 10:16 PM |

| 3 | How much was your divorce? Did it go to trial?That’s my fear. I have already tried to talk to her about it. We had agreed on everything except visitation and now she just says she is not talking about it any more and the attorneys will figure. Not sure why she wants to wast thousands of dollars, drag this out affect the kids all because I just want to see my kids half the time. | /r/Divorce_Men | 26/11/24 10:11 PM |
| 1 | Wife filed and hasn’t told me…Shouldn’t the split bill be paid based on the percentage of our income. She makes 4x the amount I do. | /r/Divorce_Men | 25/11/24 02:20 AM |
| 2 | Wife filed, hasn’t told me, haven’t been served, and see there is a temp orders hearing set..what do I do?As of today she still hasn’t told me. She stated that she has been reaching out to a couple attorneys and the holidays have caused delays lol. Should I believe anything that comes out of her mouth? | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/11/24 11:08 PM |
| 2 | Wife filed, hasn’t told me, haven’t been served, and see there is a temp orders hearing set..what do I do?They have no dirt. She is going to file a temp order for primary custodial and try to get me out of the house. Her mother in law is now living with us so that doesn’t help. My concern is she gets primary custodial and it carries over to final custody. Since she filed first and filed the temp order do I say I also want primary custodial at the temp hearing and feel it’s best for the kids to stay in the house???I can’t see my kids less than 50% that is not an option. Afraid of a false allegation w… | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/11/24 06:21 PM |
| 2 | Wife filed, hasn’t told me, haven’t been served, and see there is a temp orders hearing set..what do I do?Also, as of this morning she states she has been talking by to lawyers but everything has been delayed until after the holidays. Complete liar. Didn’t tell me anything about filing or the orders. I’ll be going to the courthouse first thing Monday morning to get a copy of the filing and orders since I still haven’t been served. She is trying to delay telling me for some reason. | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/11/24 03:49 PM |
| 2 | Wife filed and hasn’t told me…If TRO was one of them, why isn’t t hearing until 12/18. Wouldn’t that claim be handled immediately. Think the temp order are all about custody and her having exclusive access the house | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/11/24 03:46 PM |
| 2 | Wife filed and hasn’t told me…These are free sessions that we get from job benefits. | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/11/24 02:23 PM |
| 5 | Wife filed and hasn’t told me…So just found out that there are temp orders associated with this. Not sure what they are | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/11/24 09:29 AM |
| 2 | Wife filed and hasn’t told me…Good point. Feel as though she may be unsure or is avoiding any conflict. Was filed on the 14th, citation states the 19th…maybe it just hasn’t came to me yet and she would prefer me finding out getting served to avoid conflict. Idk. Is there a strategy she could be using by delaying me being served? | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/11/24 05:53 AM |

| 1 | Wife wants 5 nights a week and me out of the house. I want 50/50…..Wife filed, hasn’t told me about it. Found out. She wants to go to a mediator but doesn’t want me have 50/50 visitation. No point in going to a mediator when anything less than 50/50 is non negotiable. | /r/Divorce_Men | 20/11/24 07:21 AM |
| 1 | Wife wants 5 nights a week and me out of the house. I want 50/50…..Do I also file for a temp custody order for 50/50 when I file? Also, originally she said she would pay first month deposit and first month rent for whenever I do move, no she says “start looking and we will talk about it” | /r/Divorce_Men | 16/11/24 10:03 PM |
