| 1 | Question about home repair responsibilitiesYeah I live in HCOL area. Because my truck payment and kids tuition bill is buried in there, not as bad as it seems. It’s a wash if I move out of 5 BR home with fenced year for the dog and into 1 br apartment near work. I only save about $200. But that’s not the issue. | /r/Divorce_Men | 18/07/26 01:39 PM |
| 1 | My son 6yo got hit by a hard plastic bottom of a zip line by his half sister on purpose. That was yesterday. Should I take him to the ER or report it to CPS/DCF? last week she scratched his belly with her toe nail really badDude. I hope you’re kidding. My brother threw me through a window and hung me on a nail. I beat him with a crescent wrench. He tried to run me over on my bike with dad’s van. He drove said van through a backyard rather than give up the chase Fast forward: I am the Godfather of two of his kids | /r/Divorce_Men | 21/06/26 03:16 PM |

Watch some interviews with Thomas Campbell and his Big Theory of Everything. Google his views on suicide and the afterlife. Watch some YouTube videos featuring g psychic mediums (particularly Suzanne Giessman). They will change your mind on suicide as the way out. You don’t want to have to keep repeating the pain over and over. They made me persevere and gave me a new lease on life You don’t have to believe in anything at all to gain in… | /r/Divorce_Men | 18/06/26 02:32 AM |
| 11 | My wife has made 3 major life decisions over 10 years that have financially devastated our family. I love her, but I no longer trust her judgment.I have paid over $500k in credit card disasters, across three different occasions. OP your wife is a disaster and it almost sounds like she’s addictive to self- and other destruction. Find those kids a safe environment then get the fuck out | /r/Divorce_Men | 18/06/26 12:51 AM |
| 10 | She might accidentally kill youYour experience matches mine to a T! When she decided to do something cuz it “felt right” I would raise all these potential pitfalls, trade offs, and different options that needed to be considered. Her response was always “we’ll figure it out.” I’m like “no we never ‘figure it out’ after you decide to blunder into anything. Let’s figure it out NOW, before we move out.” But that never happened. And so all I’ve ever done if clean up one clusterfuck after another for more than 20 years | /r/Divorce_Men | 15/06/26 01:42 PM |
| 5 | She might accidentally kill youThis post resonated with me a lot. I’m very educated and very intellectual. She is kind of educated and very “nice.” For 30 years now we have had deep fundamental differences on how to raise kids, maintain a household, basically on anything requiring logical or strategic decision making. We are now in final stages of divorce but writing was on the wall twenty years ago | /r/Divorce_Men | 15/06/26 01:17 PM |

I’ve know my in laws for 40 years and never displayed anything like that toward their daughter. But ex told me they were “worried about her safety” after I called them to express concerns about HER irrational behavior | /r/Divorce_Men | 20/05/26 05:57 PM |

| 2 | How to deal with being the bad guy to kids and exOmg! You described my situation to a tee! But now my kids are in their twenties. I think I lost them but only temporarily. I went through something similar with my dad. And then apologized to him when I was 30 because he was wise and I was an idiot. And then I tried to raise my kids the way he tried to raise me and faced the same resistance because my soon to be ex is exactly like your ex. Now my dad is dead and I miss him So no easy answers man! But I’m sure there are others. I am taking the “m… | /r/Divorce_Men | 22/04/26 10:47 AM |
| 2 | CollegeDude don’t do it. My wife and I were raised like you obviously were. Then she went crazy and let the kids do whatever they wanted and stroked unlimited checks. Nothing good happened from that and now we are divorcing (wish I did it 15 years ago) | /r/Divorce_Men | 17/04/26 11:01 PM |
| 3 | Help me (34F) understand my stbx husband (35M)I disagree. She is looking for insight from a man’s perspective. To understand. That’s legit. I do the same thing in the divorce_woman site. I found the woman to give me important insights | /r/Divorce_Men | 13/04/26 10:52 PM |
| 3 | Should I talk to my wife about amicable separation, or should I serve her with divorce papers?If you do it amicably, you and your wife can make choices for yourself and keep your money. If you go straight to court, your money is transferred to lawyers and you give a judge who doesn’t give a shit permission to make decisions for you | /r/Divorce_Men | 13/04/26 11:45 AM |

But it is quite noticeable to me that I am not projecting myself well or performing g at a high level. | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/04/26 05:04 PM |
| 3 | How often do you talk to your adult sons?I’m struggling with this same question. Kids are same age. My wife suffocated them with attention and kind of squeezed me out of the picture so she could hog it all. That’s one of the reasons we are getting g divorced. Just like my dad, I approached my kids as kind of an obligation. I brought them into this world, now I have a responsibility to clothe, feed, educate them, and teach them how to do stuff so that can survive and thrive once they are independent. Kids don’t seem to respond well to t… | /r/Divorce_Men | 06/04/26 01:50 PM |
| 3 | Broken heart needs reassuranceOP I strongly recommend you get some therapy for your grief. What you are experiencing is “normal” (after a painful loss), unfortunately more common than we like, but importantly it CAB be overcome with the help of a therapist who will teach you how to take those thoughts. You WILL get through this and you WILL go on to live a happy life. Peace, brother | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/04/26 05:43 PM |
| 5 | How to be there for my husband?You remind me of where my wife and I were at a long time ago. We were high school sweet hearts, married for 28 years and now going through a hellish divorce. Things were fine at first. But then we started having kids and she seemed to change right away. Like a biological change. She seemed obsessed with the kids. Wanted to spend every minute with them. I just assumed we would raise kids the way were we’re raised. Nope. She had other ideas. Her philosophy was to let the kids do whatever the hell … | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/04/26 04:24 PM |

I accidentally stumbled into (non-religious) spirituality which has really improved my mental health. I started with Next Level Soul podcast, but that led to many many others (like WTF just happened podcast, This led me to begin studying near death experiences and reincarnation, for which we now have some fairly compelling medical evidence.

| 2 | Lawyered up, little less than 3 year marriage California did I screw up?You could have your lawyer sit on your retainer until you and your wife hammer out the details of the split. If you can come to an agreement, the lawyer will just draft up the terms for ratification by you and the courts. Shouldn’t cost more than a few grand | /r/Divorce_Men | 30/03/26 03:00 PM |
| 1 | 19F trying to understand my dad better after divorce — any advice?Yes I experienced everything you wrote. I am seeing the consequences of my children choosing to live under the gentle vs authoritarian parenting and it is sad. I got 2 kids through college but one dropped out 1 class shy of the degree. The other chose to bartend rather than teach elementary school like they attended. None do any chores whatsoever and eat fast food in their beds. I scrape all the food off the walls and floor.

| 3 | Divorce while still loving each otherI know a lot of couples who divorced because one was gay. Most found a new mate but they remain close to their former spouse. Maybe it’s a blessing and your relationship can transform for the better? The alternative is that she gets more and more depressed because staying in a marriage denies her who she really is? | /r/Divorce_Men | 27/03/26 12:58 PM |

So here I am on reddit.Be patient, my brother, this will all work out in the end. It’s going to take some time for the legal system to correct the imbalance. We are all at different stages of this up and down roller coaster. You’re just in a temporary downswing. My lawyer told me it’s hard but I need to be patient and let the system work. She’s been right about everything. Handle in there, brother, we are all rooting for you and the time you will soon be laughing with your kids again | /r/Divorce_Men | 26/03/26 12:58 AM |

I have a 22 year old daughter that i wish I was closer to. One of the reasons my wife and I are divorcing is because we never agreed on how to raise children.

Kids less than 25 or so often dont appreciate their fathers. I didn’t appreciate mine either. But you know what? Now that he’s dead, I miss him and think about him a lot. He was a good father.

| 5 | How do you ban the thought of Su1cide as an easy way out of the nightmare?Yeah 4 weeks is still early (but I remember non stop thoughts for 4 weeks). Paralyzed me in work meetings. People noticed. By week 8 or 12 or so (this is memory from 15 years ago) they will get further and further apart. I remember around 1 year (maybe less) I said to myself “wow, I haven’t thought about her all day! What a relief!” and that was it. It was a long year, sure, but I’ve had some great days since then. You will too! | /r/Divorce_Men | 09/01/26 12:18 AM |
| 2 | How do you ban the thought of Su1cide as an easy way out of the nightmare?Yeah it becomes the EZ way out of shitty situations. I don’t want my kids to ever see that as an option. I passed a homeless guy in the subway today. Cops were making him pack his shit and move. I thought “if that guy can power on, I can too. I have it much much better than him.” Made me feel guilty as hell for feeling sorry for myself | /r/Divorce_Men | 08/01/26 11:54 PM |
| 3 | How do you ban the thought of Su1cide as an easy way out of the nightmare?That sucks man. I had an intense crush like that. I was beyond obsessed with her. Took almost a year of mental pain but I bounced back and don’t even think about it anymore. Hope the same happens with you. Peace to you brother | /r/Divorce_Men | 08/01/26 11:51 PM |
| 3 | How do you ban the thought of Su1cide as an easy way out of the nightmare?Thanks, man. Sad story. So glad you’ve been strong enough to overcome that | /r/Divorce_Men | 08/01/26 09:53 PM |

| 2 | How do you ban the thought of Su1cide as an easy way out of the nightmare?Haha! I love that. Kind of feel the same way. Shame to waste it not doing something spectacular, like a clandestine suicide mission for the CIA to take out a nuclear armed terrorist or something | /r/Divorce_Men | 08/01/26 04:52 PM |
| 1 | Anyone else have trouble sleeping?I also listen to Jason Stephenson “lucid dreams” on YouTube. He’s got a bunch of videos. They are about 3 hours but only 30 mins are him talking the rest is gentle music. When I wake up, I recite it again, listen to Jason and fall back asleep. My go to for about a year now | /r/Divorce_Men | 08/01/26 04:17 PM |
| 4 | How do you ban the thought of Su1cide as an easy way out of the nightmare?Thanks man. That perspective really resonates with me. I hope I am less spiteful in the future once I’m past this shit. I don’t like to live like that but it keeps me fueled for now | /r/Divorce_Men | 08/01/26 03:43 PM |
| 1 | How do you ban the thought of Su1cide as an easy way out of the nightmare?Glad you pulled out of it, man. I have a dog and hope I don’t have to give her up when I move out. I consider that a major sin and the dog and I would be crushed | /r/Divorce_Men | 08/01/26 03:42 PM |

| 1 | Anyone else have trouble sleeping?Btw when I can’t sleep, I started reciting in my head “life is a classroom. You need to be resilient” over and over. I know it sounds stupid but it calms the nerves and after 4 or 5 times I will be calm enough to sleep | /r/Divorce_Men | 08/01/26 12:53 PM |
| 1 | Anyone else have trouble sleeping?Just talked with lawyer yesterday. And she talked me into giving stbx a good deal that includes the house she wants which she can’t afford. A lot of equity in it. But I walk away with my retirement accounts in tact which give me mathematical certainty of a good life. If she takes it (which she should, but probably won’t) I’ll be good to go. I’m going to incur a shit ton of debt either way and it’s going to be hell until finished. But I can see faint light at the end of the tunnel which may or ma… | /r/Divorce_Men | 08/01/26 12:51 PM |
| 1 | Anyone else have trouble sleeping?Crazy you mention 3:30. I’ve been waking up every day at 3:30 am for 15 years….ever since I put my golden retriever down at that time. Finally googled it….thats when barrier between the physical and spiritual world is thinnest. Some say that’s when your dead friends and relatives are sending you messages. I didn’t believe in any of that stuff but kind of resonates the longer it goes on | /r/Divorce_Men | 08/01/26 11:33 AM |
| 1 | Anyone else have trouble sleeping?I’m with you brother. I’m going through the exact same thing | /r/Divorce_Men | 08/01/26 11:30 AM |
| 1 | Need your help! Timing of divorce took turn for the worseThe lawyer I talked with talked me into offering a pretty good deal to her in the hope she accepts it immediately. One and done. It’s one I can live with easily as it gives me mathematical certainty (my full retirement in tact which will provide a decent life). It’s a slightly shitty business deal which I will be happy as hell if she agrees to it. Otherwise she’s going to lose the house (which she desperately wants) and whatever is left in equity will be eaten up by her inevitable credit card de… | /r/Divorce_Men | 07/01/26 11:52 PM |
| 2 | Need your help! Timing of divorce took turn for the worseThis is good advice thanks. ESP on the retirement issue. I thought it would be”help” if her cards were just in her name (most are now) but that she could argue that debt on her cards was accrued for the joint household or something. She has no qualms about paying a mortgage by 30% interest cards which is crazy to me | /r/Divorce_Men | 07/01/26 07:38 PM |
| 1 | Need your help! Timing of divorce took turn for the worseAlso, I notified my wife via email last summer I considered us “separated” but living together. We established separate bank account in April. Does that cover me as far as “intent to separate/divorce” | /r/Divorce_Men | 07/01/26 05:50 PM |
| 2 | Staying for the kids—yay or nayDude, you described my life 15 years ago when I started seeing a therapist. I will tell you the same thing she told me: “For God sake, don’t stay together “for the kids”. Well, I ignored her and I stayed together for the kids. Biggest regret of my life. The messy house is now a hoarder condemnation. I’m fleeing my $1.2m home at the earliest opportunity (unfortunately there are several other timing variables I now think non stop about for last 3 fucking years). The hell gets worse with time unles… | /r/Divorce_Men | 06/01/26 12:42 AM |
