| 1 | She’s cheated. She’s trying to ruin my retired parents income by taking their rental property in the divorce. And today she asked me for technical support for her new phone.The defence sometimes cannot make use of supporting statements due to rules of evidence on hearsay. This is an intricate topic and doesn’t always apply but it’s not clear cut. Agree with what you say on whipsawing. | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/09/20 12:11 PM |

| 0 | One sided marriage adviceI think there’s more going on here than just the church. He’s clearly living with an abusive partner. He’s at an age now where he’s able to see the abuse. He has grown beyond the church which sheltered and controlled him. They have very little in common and a weak connection. While he may have known all this up front(and I doubt he recognised the abuse), it doesn’t help to say “you made the bed, now you get to lie in it”.

I saw it coming, I’m just scared of not finding a quality womanMy good man, I’m going to give you the advice your best buddy should be giving you (just in case he’s not). You can make your life immeasurably better by getting off the liquor as a first step. Go get the help you need if you need to. If you need counselling for other problems that’s probably a good idea too. After that you’ll already be so far ahead of where you are now that live will be a breeze by comparison. | /r/Divorce_Men | 31/08/20 06:02 PM |

| 2 | Maintenance BuyoutIreland. In Ireland you’re legally obliged to provide for your spouse until death no matter how short the marriage (unless they get married again). You’re also not going to get a court to issue a sale order on a house if the kids are still living there (up to age 24). She can take half your pension at divorce time, do nothing with it, and find she doesn’t have enough when she retires, and still claim half of your income from your pension at that time.

I have no doubt that the results would be even more skewed than they are if they took peoples personal viewpoints into account.

The only adult advice I have is to get out (which you’re doing) and keep things calm and safe until you’re out. If you feel you need to do something about it, look up examples of non aggressive dominance. This will take time and patience and will drive her nuts and elicit crazy temper tantrums before it all gets better. | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/02/20 11:48 PM |

My point is that aggressive dominance might make somebody more compliant, but it won’t make them reconsider.

| 2 | Separated/Divorced Men, what was helpful during the grief(e.g. books)?Maps of meaning helped me enormously. I listened to the lecture series on YouTube (12 lectures of 2.5 hours each) while re-decorating me new place. Even now I am surprised at how deeply it helped me. | /r/Divorce_Men | 04/08/19 07:53 AM |
| 25 | Tables are starting to turn on her. And I don’t like it...Dude, this has all the hallmarks of narcissistic emotional abuse. Falling back in love with her will lead right back to where you were, she doesn't love you, she just gets validation from you. Chin up, face forward and build your new life. | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/07/19 10:41 PM |
| 1 | My Attorney’s Letter to her AttorneyI live in Ireland where there is a 5 year wait time before you can even file. My ex isn’t responding to letters from my solicitor and my solicitor says that no judge in Ireland will rule by default against a wife when there are young children and assets to be separated. So, . . . 2 and a half years is pretty good. | /r/Divorce_Men | 26/07/19 03:26 PM |

| 1 | Really struggling todayI'm sorry you are going through this man, it's really tough. Don't try and rush through the feelings or keep them hidden down, let them come, grieve and let the tears out. People said the same thing to me while I was in my darkest days and I really felt like it wasn't helping . . . but it was, and it has, and I'm in a much better place now. If you need a stranger to talk to feel free to send me a private message. | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/06/19 05:43 PM |

| 0 | What Happens if Your Spouse or Partner Doesn’t Respond to Divorce Papers?I am in this situation, but I am in Ireland. In Ireland no judge will make a ruling or grant a decree if the wife has not participated in the process (they have the option to continually kick the can down the road). The process of course allows for default but is not obliged to grant one. There have been plenty of rulings made where the husband has not participated in the process however. My ex has not participated in resolving the problems we encountered as a couple, would not go to relationshi… | /r/Divorce_Men | 07/05/19 06:43 AM |

| 8 | Cardi B wins best rap song be Billboard even AFTER admitting to drugging and raping men.That’s a shame. There’s more than enough injustice out there without constructing some for convenience sake. I’d hope this sub can be a credible record that can help reset the balance rather than . . . Well, this. | /r/PussyPass | 05/05/19 11:06 AM |

| 3 | Wife is spiraling out of control...First pass maybe not, but bringing it into the arena will do a couple of things 1) document this pattern early 2) deter your ex from doing it again 3) allow you gain a greater measure of control on the dialogue 4) re-enforce the rules of engagement 5) protect you from “he knew his ex was doing coke in the house with his kid and he did nothing about it” 6) help document that your kid is livening in an environment with elevated risk 7) allow you drive the right behaviour. She’s letting things slip… | /r/Divorce_Men | 04/05/19 10:17 PM |
| 2 | Wife is spiraling out of control...No risk of bodily injury to the child ? With an adult using cocaine in the house ? There's certainly risk. | /r/Divorce_Men | 04/05/19 09:39 PM |
| 2 | A couple of basic questions.Sorry man I didn’t mean that to come across as harshly as it did. It’s a shitty process. I’m trying to say that she’s not playing by the rules you agreed up front. Don’t be afraid of ruffling feathers. And don’t be afraid to lean on friends and family. Us guys get a bad reputation for not talking out the difficult stuff (I’ve never really seen that to be true). Talk to friends and family. If it gets really tough send me a PM and you can blow off some steam. | /r/Divorce_Men | 17/04/19 11:56 PM |

| 20 | It’s always every other word then rape if it’s a manSame in UK & Ireland. In the UK the perpetrator must penetrate the victim with (fingers, toys whatever all count). In Ireland the perpetrator must penetrate the victim with a penis. The law in Ireland literally does not allow for a female to commit rape. Sexual assault carries much less severe penalties. The problem here is bigger than just the media. | /r/PussyPass | 07/04/19 03:40 PM |

| 2 | Should he disclose the affair?Op, yes he should disclose the affair to his lawyer. If you want to pursue a relationship with him, I suggest you give him time and space to resolve his situation, rather than planning together to 'win'. There are no winners. In time you will have the relationship you want with him, rushing it will not allow him to deal with the situation adequately, nor his children to process their emotions, all of which will affect him, and consequently you. Let him disclose, let him deal with the divorce, yo… | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/03/19 09:21 PM |
| 12 | Fucking TerrifiedThe only thing I’d say is that divorce doesn’t end your relationship - it just changes it. You still need to figure out how to parent and how to make decisions and how to get along to a degree. I’d suggest really blowing up the dead bedroom issue before going for divorce it might yield something. | /r/Divorce_Men | 26/03/19 11:22 PM |

| 1 | How long did it take you to grief the divorce?I grieved through the last 3 years or so of my marriage. By the time I left all the grieving was done. I was still incredibly upset for about 2 years afterwards but I didn't miss us, nor the times we had spent together, and when I looked at photos of us they seemed to me like different people. | /r/Divorce_Men | 19/02/19 12:32 PM |

| 3 | Ex Won't Sign for Kids' Tax DeductionsYou have no choice but to reinforce boundaries here. If you don’t it will keep happening. Don’t consider it a money win/lose/draw game. Consider it buying her adherence in the future. Be direct and be unstoppable and be brutal. Sorry, that has a little to do with my mood right now. | /r/Divorce_Men | 03/02/19 07:43 PM |

| 1 | What would you do if your ex or STBX got cancer?I really don't think this is a gendered behaviour. I find it very difficult to communicate with my ex (mostly because in our relationship she would shut our communications down as a punishment for not getting her way) I still see her 5 days a week when I see my kids and we hardly say 2 words to each other. However if she got sick I'd help any way I can / any way she'd let me (she's a proud woman and likes to embrace / create suffering). | /r/Divorce_Men | 30/10/18 07:30 AM |
