| 5 | Settlement offer as a dirty trick?You can always bring it up In court if it happens. They have not be Working in good faith your honor. We were very close to an agreement to avoid using the courts time…….. You cannot play fair. A lot of guys take the high road and get slammed in the end. | /r/Divorce_Men | 13/11/24 07:25 PM |
| 1 | Spouse not paying her half of mortgage/bills.You will have to hold her to the fire that she needs to come up with half the expenses for the house. Do you make. Ore Money then she does? You may be on the hook for alimony. You could negotiate that you will eat the money if no alimony or you keep a certain significant asset. Don’t show your cards on what you really want. Poker face. But you should be a 100% business dog now and cut her off. | /r/Divorce_Men | 13/11/24 11:59 AM |

| 4 | Spouse not paying her half of mortgage/bills.It’s time to be a dick with what you can do. Kill all streaming service/. Take her off cell plans. Make her get her own car insurance. You have to go hard at this. She thinks you will just cave and pay. So far she is right. You can tell her we can work together or I take this route. You demand money back in the asset division if you can show she is not paying anything and has income. Here are her emails and texts. | /r/Divorce_Men | 12/11/24 10:15 PM |

| 4 | Spouse not paying her half of mortgage/bills.See the lawyer. Sounds like you’re talking about $5k she is avoiding. You can sue her in small claims court as well. Look at your options . | /r/Divorce_Men | 12/11/24 09:16 PM |
| 2 | Divorce and $$$$That depends if you have to pay her alimony and if you have kids. If yes to both it sucks. You will have to write a budget for your household minus if you have to pay. The killer in a budget is the 1-2 things that happened that are one times. Car repair, excise tax, dentist bill, new phone, etc. you have to plan for $$$ for these every month. | /r/Divorce_Men | 12/11/24 05:57 PM |

| 2 | How to justify it to her?Just have her served. Nothing left to be said. It’s time to be a dick (that’s what she will say and then you know you’re doing it right). Ignore her. Be indifferent. But…… you should have the accounts and credit cards on lock down. Be ready to record any interactions as well. Could get ugly quick. Are you sleeping in an another bedroom? | /r/Divorce_Men | 11/11/24 07:44 PM |
| 4 | I have to let this outYou need a file police reports man. That way you can get primary custody. You should be able to pull up her purchases as well if alcohol. You need to be a cold hearted dick and see a lawyer and have all the evidence ready to go. You can’t be nice anymore. You need to prove 100% she is a danger to the kids. You do not warn her or tell her what you are doing. You plan should be to have her move out and you stay in the house with kids.

| -2 | Think I'm getting laid tonight for the first time since the divorceWell all I will say is most women like to be somewhat dominated. After I was done with the marriage the ladies are more rowdy and like it rowdy. Also women that have had kids aren’t as tight so it can be difficult to have the happy ending. First time in awhile… if you married game was vanilla. Maybe it wasn’t. Then disregard. -Be vocal- they like to know it feels good -Maybe not spank her or pull her hair yet, but don’t be gentle on her butt. -Tell her what position you want to transition to.

| 2 | What should I do1- you have to lead. Dump the ask her questions and being nice. Now you say “ok this is what we are going to do! We either try to fix it or I end it.” Before you say that see a lawyer. And prepare for divorce. When you are ready then say pick an option. If she stalls just moved forward with divorce. Now if you have a dead bedroom as well, then the question is how is she getting by.

| 3 | Do you guys ever financially recover?The better to go at it is side hustle when You don’t have the kids. I prefer under the table but you can make good money Uber eats or door dash. Do the kids like spaghetti ? That’s a decent low price meal with some veggies. Make a pizza for them with stone fire crusts rather than order out. | /r/Divorce_Men | 09/11/24 05:32 PM |

| 3 | Wife suggesting we won’t make it as a married couple. All because of Trump.Hey man. Being passive and she will walk all over you. She is laying down an ultimatum. She thinks you’re weak. I doubt this is the first Ultimatum from her. What you should do is see a lawyer. Take her threat seriously and start looking at your assets and finances. What you should say to her is obviously you don’t love or respect me to speak to me this way and threaten me. This is not what a partner does. | /r/Divorce_Men | 08/11/24 07:55 PM |

| 2 | Found out I am getting a divorceYou need to get primary custody and do what ever it takes to ensure it. By proving that she is unfit to do so. Don’t fuck around and find out. Time to lead this divorce and kick ass. Protect your kid and yourself. It’s all business now - so you new name is business dog! She has already shown you what she is capable of on the crazy scale and it could go worse. You’re very very very lucky that those police calls vindicated you. Don’t fuck around. Lawyer lawyer Lawyer. A kick ass one. | /r/Divorce_Men | 06/11/24 03:45 PM |

Start kicking ass and stack the assets man! | /r/Divorce_Men | 06/11/24 03:42 PM |
| 1 | House and Retirement SettlementYou can transfer the 401k with a special form usually citing divorce. Do you have to give her more than the equity? Can she refinance? Does she have a job? I would keep the 401k. If you sold the house you pay realtor fees and have to fix it up. So your half would be less today. | /r/Divorce_Men | 06/11/24 03:38 PM |
| 2 | How bad will it be financially for me?The house money depends on equity. I would negotiate the equity - the realtor fees and split that- because if you sell the house you’re going to pay 6% in fees. Are you staying the house? How is she going to take care of the kids going to school full time? | /r/Divorce_Men | 06/11/24 12:23 AM |

Speaking to lawyer soon.Too too too risky 1-Longer you stay the more alimony can be. 2- you get lulled and she begins to siphon off assets and spending increases. 3- she will step out and date.

Mommy is working late again….. 4- just when you think it’s okay, boom your served, assets frozen and your accused of abuse. Police called and locked out of your house.

| 3 | It's always about the money, isn't it?Stand firm man! Classic bulldozer tactic. I would give up the house but suppose she can’t refi? So sell it as is. She can get an appt. She is high on meth if she thinks she is getting $50k alimony. I guess you negotiate and say here is my one time offer, other wise we go to trial. Bulldozer her right back. | /r/Divorce_Men | 02/11/24 04:51 PM |

| 3 | I lost my shitUnfortunately yes you have to go the divorce route. She doesn’t respect you. Be careful and protect your self. Crazy soon to be ex will make false abuse claims against them or the kids. Which gets you locked out of the house. So record your conversations. I would put a camera inside where you can go if she starts. Also they run up credit cards bills and empty accounts. So have defensive plan. | /r/Divorce_Men | 31/10/24 08:51 PM |
| 3 | I need some adviceWomen need to be checked when they are out line. The nice guy route is bull shit. She keeps doing it because she doesn’t respect you. tell her she needs to knock it the fuck off. We either have discussions and figure shit out constructively. Or you will make a different decision and I fix it. Which will be she becomes a single mom and lives with her parents. Because you’re not taking this any more. If you do it again you might as well pick up and drive out to your parents. | /r/Divorce_Men | 30/10/24 08:04 PM |

You should come away with an overview for your states laws and how it will go. With a lot of money on the line it would make sense to hire one. You should plan for primary custody.

| 1 | Divorce with two kids and a propertyYou should play the long game mate. Let her graduate and get a job. Then divorce. Unless she has along time to finish school. If you can’t wait it out….. then you should consult an attorney before spending more one on school.

| 3 | Retaining a lawyer, what's next?Lots of good advice. But make sure you are able to protect yourself from false accusations. She is not going to want to pay you, and she will want the kids as primary custody if she can get away with it. So what desperate 304’s do is claim abuse, call cops, lock you out of house, get protection order. You need to have a plan to defend against it. | /r/Divorce_Men | 25/10/24 01:13 AM |

I would ask the lawyer but- it seems prudent to use the liquid cash to eliminate the credit card debt. If she takes half the cash she ain’t paying down any debt, I guarantee it. Maybe even use the remaining 9k in cash/stocks to reduce the personal loan debt. | /r/Divorce_Men | 17/10/24 04:16 PM |

But if you f around and find out what she is capable of if you give her time…. Go the nice guy route and then you wake up and the cops are there and the accounts are empty. You know her best.

I would consult an attorney while you can. Obviously you’re on the hook for child support. But a short marriage you should be just that and asset split. That’s why don’t bother with buying a house.

You have to be ready in all aspects of divorce , literally handing her the papers with a family member present, have contingency plans for the worst case scenarios, and where are you going to live.

You might want to have a family member or friend at the house when you do it. Are you moving out right away or cohabitating? In general shit will go off the rails with her.

So you need a plan for that with your lawyer. You should think about it and research the wording on talking to your kids. It’s going to suck and hurt. They are going to cry hard.

You should consult an attorney before doing anything! Call your family and go over it with them. Tell them what she is doing. Make decisions after that. Don’t tip your hand. Make sure you have some emergency cash. Your credit card just in your name and your car keys. Start looking at all financial records and know where reaching stands . | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/04/24 04:44 PM |

You shouldn’t have a hard time dating. Just use the apps but be careful. Watch strong successful male on you tube. The red flags are always the same with 304’s. Don’t get into a relationship while on your grind. It takes years to know a woman. When you get around 28 beware of women looking to get married!

I would stay away from ( just off the top) - if her friends are single and focused on riding sausage/clubbing. - she admits to mental illness history - has male best friend or lots of male friends- “allegedly just friends” - on her phone a lot when with you - does only fans or lots of instagram selfies - feminist | /r/Divorce_Men | 21/02/24 11:30 PM |
| 16 | Wife confessed to affairRule number 1: She is only admitting to the minimum. Also, usually a woman “comes clean” because someone is threatening them to do it or they will. You should ask to look at her phone and go through it on a deep dive. Rule number 2: she is making a move for a reason. Either the threatened to come clean or she is thinking she sticks out a year or two she can take more assets (the house you spoke of) I would go forward with divorce and move out. Consult an attorney. Watch her actions not her words… | /r/Divorce_Men | 21/02/24 07:43 PM |

That night she left, she went to this dude. You need stop pining. Be a man, move forward. She’s a cheater , liar and takes no accountability. Most powerful move you can make is be silent and walk away from her. Hit the gym, kick ass at work, focus on your career and grind out income/assets. You got married to young. Watch strong successful male on you tube. Your story you will see is common. | /r/Divorce_Men | 21/02/24 12:33 AM |
| 3 | Being careful before asking for divorceStep 1. Find a good lawyer that can speak to your particular issues. Step 2 . Pay lawyer and do what they say. Step 3. Move your valuables out of the house slowly and into storage or family. Change passwords on everything. Put alerts on all accounts. Have emergency cash available. Make sure you have all your car keys: Get some recording cameras etc. be prepared for the worst. Always always call police if she does weird shit. Make sure she doesn’t know you called at first.

If she stalls, you have to keep contributing to expenses, debt etc. she can then get a lawyer and start trying to come up with a plan that benefits her the most.

Take charge of your life and be the leader for your kids. Let your wife be a spectator. Believe it or not, soon as you flip the switch from simp to leader. Women’s perspectives change.

| 1 | Time to go?There is a lot of things she can do but she chooses not to. Trying something once is not trying to fix it. So you have to make your choice. But wouldn’t stay because of the kid.

| 2 | Divorce in Arkansas HelpWell first off prepare for her to want more than child support. What most stbx want is max child support and primary custody and then after they want you take your child sometimes even more than 50% so they can pass the expense on to you. Then CS can be spent on her. What the medical insurance plan? You might have to own this part but split any non covered med bills 50%. That means whatever is left after insurance and scripts etc. This can be a big expense. I don’t know the state laws but you sh… | /r/Divorce_Men | 12/01/24 03:41 PM |

| 1 | Should I get married?If you date a woman for 5 years with no issues, then move in together for a year. Then maybe get married but do a prenup. | /r/Divorce_Men | 01/12/23 02:43 PM |
| 1 | Watch-outs for Divorce but Staying in House/HomeYou will pay more alimony. You will share the assets and debt you amassed over the next 6 years. You will waste 6 more years. You will giver her time to start doing underhanded things regarding money. My advice is to say you’re divorcing in 6 years but see a lawyer and say you changed your mind when you are 100% ready to go. Get the assets protected legally and reduce debt. Have a plan a to z. Then execute the plan. | /r/Divorce_Men | 29/11/23 09:49 PM |

| 3 | Separation RecommendationsTry to convince her she to live with the affair partner. I would call both your family and hers and say we are getting divorce because she is a cheater.
