| 7 | Everywhere I lookYup. So smart. | /r/Divorce_Men | 30/04/23 05:41 PM |
| 10 | Everywhere I lookYa. Mine was complaining about my behavior at the wedding 15 years ago. Lol. Too smart for their own good. Her favorite response to everything is “I know”. I asked her why she always said that. She said because “I have a PhD”. For fucks sake! You know about…EVERYTHING? I give up. Lol. She didn’t know she had to pay me half of what she has. Moron | /r/Divorce_Men | 30/04/23 05:31 PM |

| 6 | DONE!! - Thank youFocus on the day after your divorce. Imagine the freedom you’ll have. The day my divorce finished I felt a huge huge weight off my chest. I’m sleeping now through the night. Happier. | /r/Divorce_Men | 30/04/23 08:50 AM |
| 3 | Those of you who filed for the divorce due to feeling unhappy in your marriage. How’s life now?My life is really great now. I met a woman who has supported me and my kids. For once someone puts money where their mouth is and provides equal support. If you can get the divorce done in mediation consider yourself lucky (50/50 kids especially). My process was hell. In the end SHE paid me over half mil; however, we blew a college fund on lawyers and almost went to trial. Sad shit. | /r/Divorce_Men | 30/04/23 08:47 AM |
| 7 | Pls help me understand.Asset/alimony decisions are final unless there’s fraud. But even then my understanding is that it’s difficult. Custody and child support remain under the jurisdiction of the court and can be modified if there’s a significant chang of circumstance. | /r/Divorce_Men | 29/04/23 11:05 AM |
| 1 | How to improve custody chances?Urgh. If you’re at the brink of a decision hopefully you’ve done enough already. I made a long post about this (look it up in my profile). A lot goes into custody decisions. A lot of variables from your stbxw, the lawyers, the law, court people (GALs etc), and finally the judge. | /r/Divorce_Men | 29/04/23 11:03 AM |

| 1 | Lessons Learned...Advice PostThey can be wonderful if you get a good one. I’m told in my area they’re based on a list. I did pick the evaluator and thank goodness he saw through all of it. His report was 39 pages. My attorney said that the gal knew she was irrelevant after the evaluator was appointed. | /r/Divorce_Men | 25/04/23 04:14 PM |

| 1 | It’s DONEBiotech exec | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/04/23 01:30 AM |
| 2 | It’s DONEYup. She sure was. In the first meeting her mouth was moving but it was the stbxw’s words so I knew it was going to be hard. The custody evaluator trumps GAL bc the GAL isn’t a mental health professional. In the end she had to follow the evaluator’s recommendation. For the first time in a year and a half I found my mind fully clear and without worry. Gonna be the best dad I can be for my littles! | /r/Divorce_Men | 23/04/23 05:40 PM |

| 1 | It’s DONENo alimony since my income was too high. We were married 15 years. She would have owed me over $130k in child support for the kids (total ‘til 18) if I wasn’t generous and waived it to get to resolution. | /r/Divorce_Men | 23/04/23 02:46 PM |
| 3 | It’s DONENope. He got charged with disorderly conduct, and I motioned for a protective order but wasn’t successful. In Ohio I need two punches not one to qualify (or the one has to be felony assault-level) | /r/Divorce_Men | 23/04/23 02:43 PM |
| 1 | It’s DONEA psych evaluation is part of a forensic assessment done by a phd psychologist. It’s used to determine fitness for parenting and is super invasive (so is GAL). It’s not something you want to casually employ. | /r/Divorce_Men | 23/04/23 02:42 PM |
| 1 | It’s DONEI mean you can always say I’m done negotiating. But unless you’re pro se a trial will cost more than four digits and then there’s no certainty the judge will favor you. | /r/Divorce_Men | 23/04/23 01:50 PM |

| 13 | It’s DONEFirst mention of divorce was 2019. Then covid hit. I filed in late 2021. She’s a very vindictive and controlling person. I moved out in 1/2022 and forced a 50/50 parenting time. She refused to negotiate four months in. I motioned for a GAL. She motioned for a TRO and court made me give up my firearms etc. At the hearing the magistrate said literally “counsel please ask your clients to leave the room” and then proceeded to rip her side a new one saying there’s no violence here. It’s all about mon… | /r/Divorce_Men | 23/04/23 11:55 AM |
| 2 | It’s DONEThe ex spent at least $130,000. I spent at least $75,000. There’s still fees and QDROs left so who knows. We went from 1:30 to after 10 pm yesterday alone. It’s RIDICULOUS. | /r/Divorce_Men | 23/04/23 11:46 AM |
| 5 | Can’t believe I’m hereIn addition to what everyone else says, try try try to keep it out of the court. Get the kids squared away if they’re still minors. Many times the wife turns into a pure monster. You may not recognize the ex in a month or two. | /r/Divorce_Men | 21/04/23 10:48 AM |
| 1 | Been dating a girl who I told I was in the process of getting divorced but otherwise didn't want to discuss it. Finalized a month ago and let her know I'm divorced. Told me today she was following the docket the whole time.Yikes. The paid background searches are a bit much. I get the Google search - don’t want to be dating a psycho or a conman. But seeing your house value is out of line. And then reading the docket…thank goodness my jurisdiction isn’t advanced enough to have online access for average joe. As others have said…drop her. She isn’t worth it even if she’s gorgeous and the sex is amazing. It’s a nightmare already and you’ve been warned by her action. Run Forrest Run! | /r/Divorce_Men | 17/04/23 09:16 AM |

| 1 | My ex only wants to discuss things via solicitorsMine has been dragging it out for 1.5 years. Delay on financial disclosure; we had to subpoena. Stonewall 8 hours of mediation. She claims I’m under employed making six figures; HER vocational expert says I’m just in line. Usually delay means they’re hoping for something. I used the delay to cement week on week off 50/50 custody. After all, it has been over a year of the current arrangement. Sucker. | /r/Divorce_Men | 16/04/23 12:03 PM |

| 2 | Filing Taxes Married but SeparatelyI elected to file married but separate. The stbx makes a lot more than I do, and I didn’t want the headache of working out taxes owed etc. It’s less efficient than filing jointly but I prefer it this way. Refunds can be claimed as joint property | /r/Divorce_Men | 11/04/23 02:26 PM |
| 2 | Mediation on Friday - What do you wish you knew back when you went through it?Yup. Mediation was a huge waste of time | /r/Divorce_Men | 11/04/23 02:19 PM |
| 3 | Headed to court tomorrow.I feel you. I stopped paying the expenses for the house. I moved to the in-law suite and locked it. She hired a locksmith and changed the lock to lock me out. I broke the door down. She filed for protection. The judge told her she needed to resolve this through negotiation bc there’s no violence as far as he could see. Women are so evil. | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/04/23 10:01 AM |

| 1 | Holy sh!tI’ve thought about this. It’s not out of the realm of possibility but how can one ever prove it? Her lawyer is part of a two man operation. For that amount and such short time I’d expect the founding partner of a firm. | /r/Divorce_Men | 08/04/23 11:11 AM |
| 1 | Did anyone here had settlement conference with Judge?What country are you in? I’ve never heard of esp or m-esp. Trials do happen. There are idiots out there stupid enough to do it. I have one in two weeks. The stbx hasn’t once outlined wtf it is she wants but has lawyered and expert witnessed up. | /r/Divorce_Men | 08/04/23 11:09 AM |
| 1 | Did anyone here had settlement conference with Judge?Mine just sat there and talked to the GAL. The stbxw’s attorney just complained about me. The lawyers compared notes about retirement accounts. I shit you not. It was such a waste of time and money. Three hours. | /r/Divorce_Men | 08/04/23 11:06 AM |

| 3 | Holy sh!tThat’s a great question. Of course she’s asking for attorney’s fees. It seems she’s hiring forensic accountants two months before a trial to look for the millions of dollars that I don’t have. | /r/Divorce_Men | 08/04/23 11:03 AM |

| 1 | What’s the chances of this scenarioI certainly hope it doesn’t go to trial but everything seems to be pointing that way. OH is unfortunately one of those states that still relies on custodial parent designations and standard 70/30 splits | /r/Divorce_Men | 07/04/23 02:16 PM |
| 1 | What’s the chances of this scenarioUrgh | /r/Divorce_Men | 07/04/23 12:29 PM |
| 1 | What’s the chances of this scenarioAgreed. Time with the kids is what matters. Stbx is boxed in on 50/50 bc of her behavior so her goal is to get as much “extra” that’s not 50/50 for her fragile ego. | /r/Divorce_Men | 07/04/23 12:10 PM |
| 5 | What’s the chances of this scenarioI don’t have anything against 5-5-2-2. It was my proposal. What I’m trying to say is: how does one parent having medical decision power square with a joint/shared parenting plan? To me it doesn’t. The point of joint custody is both parents making decisions. On the holidays I’ve been told by lawyers and the GAL that no judge will give one parent (for example) every Xmas eve. We tried mediation. For 8 hours she complained about me and tried to get every holiday. Never even got to the school year o… | /r/Divorce_Men | 07/04/23 11:30 AM |

| 3 | I give upThis is so true. Mine alleged everything under the sun. Alcoholic, mentally ill, and even sex abuser. All lies. Took a forensic evaluation to show everyone she’s just out to crush me personally. | /r/Divorce_Men | 06/04/23 10:56 AM |
| 1 | How often do judges follow custody evaluation recommendations?Thank you for your insight. I know the other parent intends to fight this to the very end even though the results didn’t go her way. Fingers crossed. | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/04/23 03:03 PM |
| 1 | Concern about credit card statementsYes | /r/Divorce_Men | 04/04/23 06:29 PM |
| 2 | Concern about credit card statementsLol you said it! Here’s my experience: depending on how high conflict it is (and which attack dog attorney she gets) they’ll subpoena the last three years of everything. If you redact they’ll for sure subpoena. If you leave at is there’s a good chance they’ll call up the biz and ask for details. The best way forward is to have no shame. “Ya, I was there and did that BFD.” Hopefully she’s no saint either. Good luck. | /r/Divorce_Men | 04/04/23 09:53 AM |

| 1 | Stbx employment questionThank you so much. I’ve learned that one has to be on top of one’s own case. When I see something in the docket I’m always asking the attorneys wtf. | /r/Divorce_Men | 15/03/23 09:32 PM |
| 1 | Stbx employment questionThank you. This is very helpful! | /r/Divorce_Men | 15/03/23 08:29 PM |
| 1 | Stbx employment questionHmmmm I hope not | /r/Divorce_Men | 15/03/23 08:29 PM |
| 2 | Stbx employment questionThank you. | /r/Divorce_Men | 15/03/23 05:45 PM |
| 1 | Stbx employment questionGood points. I didn’t think of the two week notice. I’ve seen execs laid off and it was a fairly strict procedure so that’s my only experience. She’s in biotech. | /r/Divorce_Men | 15/03/23 12:42 PM |
| 0 | Stbx employment questionThank you. I’m not looking for support. I just don’t want her asking me for support. | /r/Divorce_Men | 15/03/23 12:17 PM |
| 6 | Stbx employment questionThank you. We’ve subpoenaed everything. She is dragging her feet on updating financials as well. I’m thinking she’s trying to hide something. But how stupid does one have to be about this? You can’t hide these things. | /r/Divorce_Men | 15/03/23 12:16 PM |
| 1 | [NJ] At what point should I settle divorce?I hear you brother. I hear you. | /r/Divorce_Men | 15/03/23 01:20 AM |
| 1 | [NJ] At what point should I settle divorce?Trial will cost you more than $8k all said and done. And you don’t know what the outcome will be. Control your destiny. It’s a lot of $ but you can make it back. | /r/Divorce_Men | 15/03/23 01:09 AM |
| 1 | Wife has been recording my work hours.Mine did the same. She cherry picked the dates and said I was only around 32% of the time so I should only get 32% of custody. It’s like a stock broker who says “look at my amazing returns” if you only consider the month of May. Ya, I had to provide three year’s worth of travel schedules to refute her bs. Next time you see the log laying around spill coffee on it and throw it away. | /r/Divorce_Men | 15/03/23 12:38 AM |
| 1 | Asset divisionThank you for the heads up. Good luck brother | /r/Divorce_Men | 11/03/23 08:21 PM |
| 1 | Asset divisionOuuuuch! Im sorry to hear that man. I know the trial is going to be brutal. The woman just won’t settle. I’ve won the delay blame game. We’ve got every single court service involved from GAL on up | /r/Divorce_Men | 11/03/23 07:14 PM |
| 2 | Asset divisionHa! I’m a year and a half in, and now it’s her side that won’t turn over updated financials. So stupid. I joke they’re preparing for a Supreme Court case. Family court ladies and gents. Family court. | /r/Divorce_Men | 11/03/23 05:12 PM |
| 1 | Asset divisionWould be funny if it wasn’t so wasteful. Logic doesn’t apply to the emotionally controlled | /r/Divorce_Men | 11/03/23 04:15 PM |
| 1 | Asset divisionMy ex’s attorney convinced her she needed to do invasive discovery after I’ve turned over everything. She got billed $20k. What an idiot. | /r/Divorce_Men | 11/03/23 01:54 PM |
| 4 | Asset divisionYou left out the part where your stbx hates your guts and wants everything you own. | /r/Divorce_Men | 11/03/23 01:08 PM |
| 3 | Wife is becoming more of a feminist every dayLol asking about books isn’t ok now? Wow. Good luck brother. | /r/Divorce_Men | 11/03/23 02:21 AM |
| 3 | Will she settle?Nope. Trial is 4/24. She blew up mediation (4 sessions, 8+ hours), she hasn’t updated her financials yet (please explain $50k missing), and she’s still complaining about small parenting annoyances. It’s so ridiculous you can’t make this stuff up. | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/03/23 02:06 PM |
| 1 | How to convince my wife to do an uncontested divorce?A trial would probably be pretty quick given no children, low assets, short marriage. She’ll pay more for an attorney than wrestle out of you. | /r/Divorce_Men | 09/03/23 01:34 AM |
| 1 | Trying to vacation out of state to see family but she's not agreeing in writingMine insisted on it and after she got an order requiring written permission….she has now stopped asking for it. I ran up her bill $10,000 negotiating two trips. What a pain. | /r/Divorce_Men | 07/03/23 10:53 AM |

| 1 | After my divorce, I don't know if I'm better at vetting women or if I am just broken.Yup. Exactly. | /r/Divorce_Men | 06/03/23 11:25 AM |
| 10 | After my divorce, I don't know if I'm better at vetting women or if I am just broken.Same thing here. Had a few women blow up on me about scheduling and their precious time when I’m a single dad with two kids. Bye bye don’t need a repeat. | /r/Divorce_Men | 06/03/23 10:33 AM |
| 1 | Settlement ConferenceThank you! | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/03/23 11:09 PM |
| 1 | Starting a thing with divorced manLol yes. He needs viagra that’s the hesitation | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/03/23 08:08 PM |
| 2 | Starting a thing with divorced manLol most guys are there. He’s over 50 you said? Yes, ask him for a date at your place and tell him to bring a toothbrush. Either he’ll go for it or come up with an excuse. Then you’ll know for sure. | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/03/23 07:29 PM |
| 1 | Starting a thing with divorced manJust tell him ahead of time that you want to sleep with him. Gives him time to mentally get ready and anything else just in case. | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/03/23 07:10 PM |
| 1 | Ex asking to do things as a familyMine wanted to out of her need to control. I never did. We go to trial next month | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/03/23 06:56 PM |
| 1 | Starting a thing with divorced manOr give him enuf time to take the blue pill | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/03/23 06:25 PM |
| 2 | Settlement ConferenceAs in me giving her repeated offers until it satisfies whatever she has in mind for a settlement? Sounds awfully similar to how she was in the marriage - never expressing a preference but for sure letting u know she disapproves of whatever it is I did. The court requires briefs to be filed before trial so maybe I’ll finally know what it is she wants then. I suspect she wants everything from the kids to 100% or my money but that’s not how divorce works…. | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/03/23 05:01 PM |
| 2 | Settlement ConferenceThank you. I’ve got my bottom lines mapped out. She has historically dragged her heels on providing financial documents. Depositions are coming soon as are other discovery efforts. I hope I finally get to hear wtf it is that she wants. | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/03/23 04:42 PM |
| 2 | Settlement ConferenceYes many many times | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/03/23 04:19 PM |
| 2 | Settlement ConferenceAgreed. The problem is she won’t tell me what she wants. Does she want the house? Does she want my 401k? Etc | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/03/23 02:53 PM |
| 1 | How to let go of her, she is filing.The hatred is real. Some want to punish and a pound of flesh. I wish they’d just be upfront and tell you how much they want and be done with it | /r/Divorce_Men | 04/03/23 10:18 PM |
| 5 | How to let go of her, she is filing.When she goes full bore hostile and turns the divorce into high conflict you’ll be over her real quick. | /r/Divorce_Men | 04/03/23 11:00 AM |

| 19 | First Anger in New RelationshipExactly. Don’t ignore these things. Happened to me a couple times when someone who seems nice reacts really strongly to something not major. Move on. It won’t get bettwe | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/02/23 06:40 PM |
| 1 | Fathers divorceAlso just because she changed the locks doesn’t mean he can’t change them back. It’s his (and her) house. Until there’s a decision they both own it so ya move back. Or maybe stop paying the bills. | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/02/23 12:52 PM |
| 4 | Did your wife’s friends turn her against you?Um that’s the first thing that happens. Because you know, it’s all your fault. Don’t waste your time brother | /r/Divorce_Men | 27/02/23 03:08 AM |
| 4 | How do i get past the anger ......Omg I wish my ex would get a boyfriend already! | /r/Divorce_Men | 23/02/23 03:41 AM |
| 3 | Pretty sure STBXW ran out of moneyYa I don’t understand this mindset of dragging stuff out. My stbx wanted me to have less custody then ended up getting a 50/50 issued on her by the court. She still wants to drag it out…. Trial is late April. Fml. | /r/Divorce_Men | 18/01/23 03:55 PM |
| 2 | Hidden incomeI hear you. Again it depends on how much. There’s a baseline in most states. No one in family court gets in trouble for perjury. | /r/Divorce_Men | 29/12/22 01:30 AM |
| 1 | Hidden incomeIt doesn’t mean anything unless the threshold amount triggers something. | /r/Divorce_Men | 29/12/22 01:03 AM |
| 3 | You Fight.This is exactly the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. Mine won’t call it quits. She’s fighting to the bitter end. The GAL already went against her in the interim plan, she caught herself a psych/custody evaluation, and now her dad punched me at child transition (on video too no less). And yet she wants to go to trial. Lol if it wasn’t so much fail. | /r/Divorce_Men | 20/12/22 04:33 PM |
| 2 | OFW pro tips?I hear you brother. I usually respond to what I want to respond to and ignore the rest. If it’s important enough create a new message with specific subject. Focus on issues related to the kids. Never ever read OFW at night before bed. Remember whatever you write will be used against you in court. | /r/Divorce_Men | 08/12/22 11:27 PM |
| 28 | For those men that filed first, what was the final straw?Lucky you didn’t have kids | /r/Divorce_Men | 08/12/22 05:45 PM |
| 1 | Temporary orders and divorce.How is she able to schedule temp hearings? My jurisdiction has a backlog and I wish they’d schedule a hearing on my motions! | /r/Divorce_Men | 16/11/22 06:30 PM |
| 2 | The sense of entitlement is insane - it's like she thinks we're still married!I had the pumpkin too | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/11/22 11:29 PM |
| 2 | The sense of entitlement is insane - it's like she thinks we're still married!Mine pushed boundaries every single time it’s my parenting turn. Can I see them Saturday? Can I have four hours here? Two hours there? | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/11/22 11:06 PM |
| 13 | The sense of entitlement is insane - it's like she thinks we're still married!Boundaries brother. Boundaries. | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/11/22 10:54 PM |
| 10 | The sense of entitlement is insane - it's like she thinks we're still married!Oh this is me 100%. She still wants me to help her with home repairs | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/11/22 10:25 PM |
| 1 | It's too bad that Family Court reform is hardly ever a campaign issue or a political promiseOhio is struggling to pass a presumed 50/50 amendment to custody laws. Guess who’s opposing it? The family law judges association and the domestic violence groups. I get their argument; however, if states as diverse as CA and KY can do it…why not here? | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/11/22 03:32 AM |
| 1 | The Mental IssueThank you bro. I’m going through very tough times too. Keep telling myself this too will end. Why do people hate so much? | /r/Divorce_Men | 01/11/22 11:20 AM |
| 9 | There really is no logic in this, is there?Stop paying for the house you don’t live in | /r/Divorce_Men | 19/10/22 11:15 AM |
| 6 | There really is no logic in this, is there?No such thing as fair in this bs. The sooner you accept that the happier you’ll be. I’m sorry. | /r/Divorce_Men | 19/10/22 11:15 AM |

| 1 | “Tainted” by your exOmg the amount she’s wasted is insane. I’ve got a pretrial in a week and we’re pushing for a date! | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/09/22 12:53 PM |
| 3 | “Tainted” by your exBrother, I’m in your EXACT situation. I was in and out of relationships because she wouldn’t let me go. Been in the nightmare since 2017. She’s on her FOURTH attorney and I’m resigned it will just go to trial. | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/09/22 12:18 PM |
| 4 | Guy who got divorce, is life better?Hells yes | /r/Divorce_Men | 29/08/22 12:21 AM |
