| 10 | She filed and it’s a poor reflection on her.I hate how they rewrite history to make themselves the victim. My ex bad mouthed me to our kids, her family, my family, and our friends. She was the perfect devoted wife and I was the abusive, controlling, pervert. Of course now that she has sold/spent most of the assets she got in the divorce, she is begging to come “home”. She’s also asking me and our adult children for money. My credit rating went up over 200 points since the divorce. | /r/Divorce_Men | 07/07/26 12:23 PM |
| 9 | UPDATE: Just had the talkThey ask for everything and work backwards from there. You need to fight for what’s yours. They are probably thinking you’ll give up on some stuff because you’ll be “happy” they lowered some of their demands. I can’t believe she has any right to your parents house. She’s the enemy right now. Not your wife, or family, and not your friend. | /r/Divorce_Men | 03/07/26 03:47 AM |
| 12 | When did you know your marriage was over?She told me she wanted a divorce and I was tired of her shit. Later she wondered why I didn’t fight for the marriage. | /r/Divorce_Men | 02/06/26 01:14 AM |
| 12 | Frustrating to finally start to see the lightMy ex told me; “All those things you did for me, didn’t mean a thing”. She’s now saying she was a “single parent” that did EVERYTHING. I did the laundry (family of 5), vacuuming, yard work, car maintenance, cooked on the weekends, took the kids to all their practices/games, handled the finances, and worked full time. She was a SAHM who worked part time when she wanted. | /r/Divorce_Men | 27/05/26 01:45 PM |
| 3 | Unconscionable? - Ex and mediator put forth the idea that she is entitled to 102% of the marital estate.My ex said if she didn’t get it, the next woman would. Divorce is a business transaction and not a caring/amicable split. | /r/Divorce_Men | 19/05/26 12:35 PM |
| 16 | Unconscionable? - Ex and mediator put forth the idea that she is entitled to 102% of the marital estate.It’s a tactic. Ask for everything and work backwards from there. | /r/Divorce_Men | 18/05/26 11:59 PM |
| 6 | Can’t stop the tearsDon’t cry in front of your wife. | /r/Divorce_Men | 15/05/26 01:12 PM |
| 5 | Amicable split talk feels like a trapMy ex said the same thing, but when it came to filing for divorce, she literally went for everything. This is a tactic her lawyer used. Ask for everything and work backwards from there. Probably to see how hard I’d push back or hoping I’d fold. | /r/Divorce_Men | 11/05/26 01:22 PM |
| 5 | I think this was my 1st and last marriageI was married for 25 years, together over 30. Once is enough for me. Been divorced over 12 years now. I’ve dated a little, but I’m not really interested in putting in the effort to have a relationship. | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/05/26 01:29 PM |

| 6 | Anyone else holding onto anger at their ex years later?My ex won’t leave me alone. She’s spent everything she got in the divorce (paid off house and 1/2 of my 401k). She gets over a 1/3 of my pension plus she gets her own social security. She bad mouths me to our kids and still asks me for money. Recently she’s been saying I should move out of my house and let her move in. She asks our adult children for money. We’ve been divorced over 12 years. | /r/Divorce_Men | 29/04/26 02:58 PM |
| 3 | How often do they come back?Unfortunately, she’s not that far off. She’s now manifesting that I move out of my house and let her move in. She also wants money to fix up the house the way she wants to, after moving in. | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/04/26 11:28 PM |
| 2 | How often do they come back?It’s not so much that she got the house, but that she blew it so quickly. She was in this the universe/manifest b.s. and I guess she thought she could just manifest some more. It took her a few more years to blow through her share of my 401k. | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/04/26 11:09 PM |
| 3 | EntitlementI found this out after the divorce. My ex had bad mouthed me to my mother before the divorce. | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/04/26 11:04 PM |
| 4 | How often do they come back?My ex wanted to come “home” after selling the paid off house she got in the divorce and spending most, if not all, of the proceeds. This was about 6 years after the divorce she wanted. | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/04/26 02:04 PM |
| 8 | EntitlementMy ex bad mouths me to everyone she can (our adult children, my mother, my son’s MIL, our friends, etc.) and then wonders why I refuse to be her friend. | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/04/26 01:05 PM |
| 2 | I just really miss my kidsThat has to be the worse part about divorce. I adore my children. I was “lucky”, because my kids were older when the wife left us (she didn’t want any responsibility). I’m sorry you’re going through this. | /r/Divorce_Men | 20/04/26 09:18 PM |
| 17 | How many ex’s tried to come back?My ex wife wanted to come “home”. This is after she sold and spent all the proceeds of a paid off townhouse she got in the divorce. This was about 6 years after we split (she wanted the divorce). | /r/Divorce_Men | 20/04/26 05:21 PM |
| 3 | It is SO important that I’m the one who filesMy ex asked for the divorce, moved out (leaving me and the kids), and filed for the divorce. She’s telling everyone that I initiated the divorce. In other words, they’re going to say whatever they want. | /r/Divorce_Men | 18/04/26 06:45 PM |
| 6 | To Every Divorced Man Who’s Still StandingAll your friends are married and you don’t have anyone to hang with or be your wingman. | /r/Divorce_Men | 25/02/26 12:38 AM |
| 1 | Have you had a bad experience with divorce lawyersFirst one was a woman because I had read it was a good idea to get a woman attorney. It wasn’t. My ex wanted the divorce and wanted no responsibility for the kids (oldest had graduated college but hadn’t found a career, second was still in college, and the youngest was a junior in high school). I had bought a townhouse prior to marriage and we lived there a couple of years before we had kids. I kept it when we moved into a single family house when she was pregnant with our first. I rented out th… | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/02/26 08:31 PM |
| 2 | Just A Short RantMy ex asked for the divorce. Moved out after 5 months in-house separation. Filed for divorce. Now after 11 years divorced, she’s telling our adult children that I wanted the divorce. | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/02/26 12:22 AM |
| 13 | Most guys don’t lose themselves in divorce because of the legal process...It took me a couple of years to redefine myself after the end of a 30 year relationship. | /r/Divorce_Men | 06/02/26 08:27 PM |
| 6 | Maybe once is enough?I’m in the same boat you’re in. If I meet someone fine, if not, that’s fine, too. I’ll never get married again. | /r/Divorce_Men | 04/02/26 01:48 PM |
| 3 | Dealing with their angerMy ex tells our kids (adults) that she did everything while we were married. I guess she forgot that the kids were there and remember things quite differently. | /r/Divorce_Men | 03/02/26 01:53 PM |
| 7 | Anyone come out NOT broke?My credit score went up over 200 points. | /r/Divorce_Men | 01/02/26 11:39 PM |
| 8 | I just realized I've been keeping score for years - anyone else?My ex rewrote history and told the kids that she did everything. Unfortunately for her, she forgot they were there and know she’s full of b.s. | /r/Divorce_Men | 06/01/26 02:38 PM |
| 12 | Posting this for a friend. Just over 2 years post divorce and his ex ended up exactly where he thought she would.She told everyone that she “manifested” her wealth. I guess she thought she could just manifest some more when the first batch ran out. | /r/Divorce_Men | 04/01/26 10:16 PM |
| 24 | Posting this for a friend. Just over 2 years post divorce and his ex ended up exactly where he thought she would.My ex got a paid off townhouse, half of my 401k, and 35% of my pension. She no longer has the house or 401k. Spent all of it. She says I should buy her another house because she got screwed over in the divorce. The kids stayed with me and I was supporting one in college and the other was going to college the following year at the time. So the ex only had herself to support. | /r/Divorce_Men | 04/01/26 09:38 PM |
| 2 | The flood of differant emotions is ridiculousI agree, but they should be giving you advice/options so you can come up with a fair distribution of assets. | /r/Divorce_Men | 30/12/25 10:52 PM |
| 3 | How to figure out my identity…Don’t rush. Take your time. Work on yourself. This is a perfect time to do this because you don’t have to think/worry about anyone else. I know it’s cliche, but go to the gym. | /r/Divorce_Men | 30/12/25 09:52 PM |
| 4 | The flood of differant emotions is ridiculousMediation requires you both to agree on how to split everything. You might want to talk to a lawyer to find out what you’re legally entitled to. Talk to friends who have gone through a divorce in your state. My ex filed first telling me she wanted to be fair and amicable, but literally wanted way more than what she was entitled to (I.e. pre-marital assets, lifetime alimony). So mediation doesn’t work when one side is being unfair. We ended up going with what I recommended. I had bad lawyers who … | /r/Divorce_Men | 30/12/25 09:40 PM |
| 5 | Its OverGoing through divorce is tough. The life you’ve known , your purpose, goals, plans, etc. are gone. But you will get through this and develop a new sense of self, new goals, new future. After a while you might look back at this as the best thing that could have happened. | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/12/25 12:02 AM |

| 1 | I think I finally got my balls back...My ex claimed her monthly expenses were over $6500. She had no mortgage/rent and no car payments. I was responsible for paying on all joint credit cards (2 were maxed out). I was supporting our 3 kids, too. She accused me of hiding money. I told her the only money I was hiding was in the spare change jar and she could have it. My life is so much better now. | /r/Divorce_Men | 06/04/24 01:23 AM |

| 8 | I think I finally got my balls back...I was a nice guy doing stuff for her during the separation phase, but I stood my ground during meditation. We had a fair and legal distribution of assets in the divorce, but to this day she believes she was screwed. I’ve worked on my nice guy tendencies since the divorce. The best part about being single is you don’t have to worry about anyone else and can focus on yourself. | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/04/24 01:13 PM |
| 3 | Just Like That, 26 Years.I was in a 30 year relationship (25 married). After the divorce, it felt like there was a huge void in my life and I had a need to fill that void (which made me too needy). I thought I was over my divorce because I didn’t want my ex back, but it was more complicated than just that. It took me a couple of years (and one failed relationship) to feel good about my life again. | /r/Divorce_Men | 20/03/24 01:49 PM |
| 14 | Just Like That, 26 Years.For 26 years you put your wife and kids first. You’ve been husband, father, and provider. You’re going to go through a major identity change. It’s going to take some time to readjust. But soon you’ll only be responsible for yourself. You’ll be able to focus on your wellbeing, make self improvements, find new hobbies, exercise, meet new people, and begin to live your life how you want. | /r/Divorce_Men | 20/03/24 03:23 AM |

| 5 | PLAYING ARMCHAIR QUARTERBACK, WHAT WOULD YOU DO DIFFERENTLY DURING YOUR DIVORCE KNOWING WHAT YOU KNOW NOW?I wouldn’t do things for her when she asked for help. I didn’t want to stop the divorce, but I would help her (install light fixtures at her place, put together a sauna, move furniture, fixed fence, etc.). I was just trying to be nice.

| 2 | Challenge your lawyerI went through 2 attorneys and they both couldn’t care less about me. I was the one that had to come up with the fair disposition of assets.

| 3 | Preparing for DivorceDuring the separation period, my ex accused me of hiding money. I wasn’t. But thinking back on it, I wonder if she was projecting. I don’t know how she paid for her attorney and we had 2 credit cards with over $20,000 balances at the time. She had worked various part time jobs off and on after the kids were in school. My paychecks went into a joint account and all bills were paid with that. I never thought to ask if she had a secret bank account. | /r/Divorce_Men | 06/12/23 08:28 PM |

My ex gets a percentage of my pension which is based on the number of years married vs. the number of years I worked. I don’t pay any alimony on top of this. She has a time period (1/2 of the marriage) to go back and claim additional money (if I got another job). She also got 1/2 of my 401k and a paid off house. I kept the marital home (which still has a mortgage). | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/11/23 02:34 PM |

| 1 | Is my house a premarital asset?Talk to a lawyer, but I think if you kept the rental income separate from your marriage (didn’t spend it on regular expenses), you might have a case. Is her name on the deed or mortgage? At the least you might be able to separate the pre-marriage appreciation on the house plus any down payment you put in. But again check with a lawyer. | /r/Divorce_Men | 07/06/23 10:48 PM |
| 4 | Why do the responsible ones end up paying?I went through it. It messed me up for a while. I thought I was doing well because I didn’t want her back. But there was more to getting over the divorce than just that. I realized the divorce was the best thing that happened to me. Got a toxic narcissist out of my life.

| 1 | What's the best way to find a good divorce attorney?I wish I knew. I had 2 attorneys during my divorce. First one was bad (said I could move to Florida where rent was cheaper like her ex husband did). Second wasn’t much better. Didn’t give me advice on what I could ask for and I found mistakes in the separation agreement (wrong dates, wrong names). I never felt either represented my best interests. I didn’t want to get a third lawyer because I had spent enough already on the first two. | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/06/23 05:43 PM |

He was my second attorney because my first one was even worse. | /r/Divorce_Men | 01/06/23 01:19 PM |

| 2 | Wife wants a divorce-now what? What do I need to know? Do? Advice?Don’t plead, beg, or cry in front of her. Be strong. She’s not your partner anymore. It’s all business at this point. Do what’s in your best interests. | /r/Divorce_Men | 30/05/23 08:21 PM |
| 1 | I think I fucked up with divorce settlement…If a good deal is when both sides think they benefited, is a good divorce when both sides think they got screwed? I know this doesn’t answer your question, but this thought came to me when I read your post. I’m divorced. | /r/Divorce_Men | 01/05/23 08:39 PM |

| 1 | Is anyone familiar with Thrift Savings Plan rules?My marriage period was the day we married to the day we separated and not the day the divorce was finalized. That was the time period used to calculate her portion of my CSRS pension. | /r/Divorce_Men | 19/03/23 05:55 PM |
| 4 | What’s with her?My ex did the same thing. We eventually divorced (she filed). About 6 years later she came back and said she was wrong about me and wanted to get back together. After I said no, she now claims I was abusive the entire marriage. All her problems are now my fault. Our kids want very little to do with her (which is my fault,too). | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/01/23 11:14 PM |

| 10 | Did you become persona non grata to other married men friends after Divorce?My ex wanted to come back “I was wrong about you”. When I declined, she started saying I was abusive to her the entire marriage. The kids stayed with me after the divorce and don’t believe a word she says. | /r/Divorce_Men | 23/12/22 05:08 PM |

| 1 | A quick reminderMy ex thinks me not wanting anything to do with her is “revenge” on my part. I just want her to leave me alone. That’s not revenge. We have adult children, so that’s not an issue. | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/12/22 09:50 PM |
| 2 | Rant….My ex believed in fairies, spirit guides, gods, goddesses, alien councils, tinctures, animal guides, etc.. Said I had treated her poorly 500 years ago. | /r/Divorce_Men | 01/07/22 12:22 AM |
