8	LinkedIn request from ex One scenario: She got into a fight with new husband, she's upset, nostalgia kicked in, and she looked you up. She felt safe trying to connect because a click can always be explained away as an accident or a cache issue. Best response: Block her and move on.	/r/Divorce_Men	19/02/25 10:33 PM
1	Should I get a dog? If you can provide a forever home, yeah, definitely. I had already owned two dogs for 10 years when I divorced. During the divorce, I took my dogs for walks all the time. They helped quite a bit. I was unstable tho. I didn't know where I was going to live, if they allowed dogs, etc. It took me a long time to re-home them with someone I knew. They probably would have had much harder lives if I hadn't.	/r/Divorce_Men	19/02/25 08:49 PM
1	Struggling today.. It's been two years since I finalized. Lots of progress. But there's still some rollercoaster stuff happening. There's no rhyme or reason. It's less frequent. Plow through, see if tomorrow is better?	/r/Divorce_Men	19/02/25 08:43 PM
3	Ok not sure what to do The petition / response thing? You should have 30 days to respond. I think the petition has a lot of check boxes for temporary alimony, child support, etc. Check to see if she got any of these. All the rest, house, pension, etc won't be settled for at least six months. So don't worry about it for now. Just focus on those check boxes.	/r/Divorce_Men	18/02/25 06:13 AM
2	LA divorce Lawyer Advice Mandatory Settlement Conferences are designed to unloosen stuck CA divorces. It's like structured mediation with a court approved lawyer or judge playing mediator. It's on steroids. I think they're meant to last hours... like, you'll be done done. It's risky. There can be a lot of pressure to settle and no chance to sleep on offers. You definitely want to prep for it. Also, seriously, talk to your lawyer and make sure you understand what an MSC is and what happens if a settlement is not reached.…	/r/Divorce_Men	14/02/25 09:57 PM
9	Who all is spending Valentine’s Day alone? Definitely alone. I don't have an issue with that at all. Valentine's Day can feel like a chore. It wraps up pretty much everything I don't like about marriage. Make her feel special. Scout out new restaurants and get a reservation weeks in advance. Find yet another flower shop because the last one messed up. Think of gift ideas because Amazon suggests happy trash, slippers, and robes. Maybe look for a first edition book. Or make something creative and memorable that includes the kids' photos. W…	/r/Divorce_Men	14/02/25 04:52 PM
1	Put Truck Nuts on Her Car If life is a bento box, she's that weird ass orange kimchi fucking experimental shit made by a non-Korean sitting in the upper right. Sure, I could poke around it with chopsticks. But it'd probably fuck up the rest of the meal.	/r/Divorce_Men	11/02/25 04:20 PM
3	Tips for keeping spousal alimony low After our divorce, my ex suddenly doubled her annual salary. "Something" motivated her. Best guess is that she lost her unwilling pack mule. I had asked her to get a modest raise for our family for the previous ten years. Nope. But she got a raise after divorce when it was just herself. This seems like cheating. It proves she was always able to work, never willing to work. And I really don't think this is the spirit of alimony but very, very, very common. It's easy to check. A simple retrospecti…	/r/Divorce_Men	10/02/25 06:25 PM
5	I begged and I regret doing it! There is a real-world. And there is a divorce-world. Divorce-world has some super crazy shit in it.	/r/Divorce_Men	10/02/25 05:17 PM
