2	Kids Sports Events Makes sense. Didn’t mean to sound flippant or anything about your approach here. You’re doing everything correctly, given the circumstances. Sounds almost unwinnable, and she’s forcing your hand. if you explode on her for doing it, she plays the victim Card and whines about how you won’t let her see your kids and make them dinners and stuff. And you don’t want to risk alienating her in front of your kids. So she’s basically using your kids to manipulate the situation, because she knows that’s yo…	/r/Divorce_Men	22/07/25 10:16 PM
2	Kids Sports Events I’m assuming you’re not couching these convos about showing up at the house with “f**k off and stop doing this. You don’t live here and your a stranger now”, because you’re trying to maintain some civility for the sake of your kids?	/r/Divorce_Men	22/07/25 09:16 PM
4	Advice on holidays / birthdays Pride comes before the fall. Dude, it sounds like your ex-wife is going to start unraveling soon. Can’t say for sure, but this is starting to have all the tells of her coming crawling back to you within a year. Sounds like she’s been trying to text and engage with you as if you’re still a couple. You’re 18 and 20 year-old kids are only going to continue to get even more independent. And I’m sure they aren’t super thrilled with your ex-wife and the way she has conducted herself. Once her feelings…	/r/Divorce_Men	09/06/25 07:36 PM
3	She is officially out Jesus that is conniving. One of my former supervisors retired as a high ranking officer in the army. While I’m not privy to the intimate details, he told me enough that I gathered his ex-wife did almost the exact same thing as what your situation is. Now she is sitting back, taking a bite out of his monthly check. It’s deplorable. I’m not sure if that was your ex wife’s plan all along , but if it was, I’m glad you were able to thwart her effort and she got a fraction of what she thought she woul…	/r/Divorce_Men	15/04/25 05:15 PM
2	She is officially out Op I am curious, and you might’ve already covered this and I missed it, so apologies if that’s the case. I saw you were in the army and received a pension. Is your pension through the military? I’m not in the military, but have worked closely with several career military guys at the officer and enlisted level. My understanding from them is after 20 years you do qualify for a pension, the amount depends on your pay grade. What I’m getting at is did she wait until you qualified for your pension to…	/r/Divorce_Men	15/04/25 04:49 PM
3	She is officially out If she complains or feels sad about that, you can always just remind her “I wonder whose choice it was to leave the family.. run along now” lol	/r/Divorce_Men	15/04/25 04:41 PM
5	She is officially out Wtf lol. Why would she even ask something like that? She already knows the answer to that, which is YES.	/r/Divorce_Men	06/04/25 06:22 PM
3	Now wife works out and loses weight OP, have been reading your posts and updates for a while. First off, I am sorry for your awful situation. Your ex-wife appears to just be a shitty person for lack of a better word. I was trying to get a better understanding of the context of your situation. Basically from what I am gleaning, she told you she wanted to be "alone" and asked for a divorce. You discovered her affair, and used it to leverage a favorable settlement (financially anyway..) However, reading your posts and comments, I get…	/r/Divorce_Men	01/04/25 01:40 PM
