| 2 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedWow. Stay strong brother. Wishing you and the kids nothing but the best. I keep telling myself, this too shall pass. | /r/Divorce_Men | 30/07/26 02:16 AM |
| 1 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedWishing you nothing but the best man. This too shall pass | /r/Divorce_Men | 29/07/26 05:42 PM |
| 1 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedHow the hell can you pay alimony and child support to someone who makes more than you and has less custody than you? This really happens? My stbxw should be paying me then. | /r/Divorce_Men | 29/07/26 06:18 AM |
| 1 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedCrazy ain't it?!?! Looking at her like who is this person? Where the hell did she come from? How's it going now? | /r/Divorce_Men | 29/07/26 06:16 AM |
| 0 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedYou are aware that in the USA you can sue ANYONE for ANYTHING at ANYTIME? Whether you will win or not is another story but you still have to defend yourself which costs money, time, and energy. | /r/Divorce_Men | 29/07/26 06:15 AM |
| 2 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedExactly how mine started. You meet the real her once you are getting divorced. Hows it going now? Have you filed? Kids good? | /r/Divorce_Men | 29/07/26 06:10 AM |
| 2 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedThanks, I appreciate it | /r/Divorce_Men | 29/07/26 06:09 AM |
| 6 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedThank you. Its already hard on them, trying to give them as much love, affection, and reassurance as I possibly can. | /r/Divorce_Men | 29/07/26 06:09 AM |
| -2 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedYeah no shit sherlock. Obviously you didn't read my entire post or any of my responses throughout the thread. No funds are being gifted to me during the divorce. All post divorce. No commingling. Very simple. I rent, my landlord is selling the house, that has nothing to do with me or her. Only thing that changed is I initially was going to share some of this post divorce gift with her and now I am not. | /r/Divorce_Men | 29/07/26 03:46 AM |
| 2 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedYeah, I hired a lawyer yesterday and spent today gathering documents and filling out intake paperwork. I told her to text me only from now and on and my body cam will be here tomorrow. | /r/Divorce_Men | 29/07/26 02:44 AM |
| 1 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedYeah, at this point you're just a wallet man. Marriage should not be a lifetime prison sentence. I feel your pain as I'm also paying the bills for an unreasonable woman and she just keeps getting worse, pushing more and more. Realistically, if there’s no hope of reconciliation, you're already LIVING in a camper, whatcha waiting for? Don't wait until you break bro. At least get some free consultations with lawyers and look into free legal aid or self help through the court if need be. Stay strong… | /r/Divorce_Men | 29/07/26 01:59 AM |
| 2 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedYes I consulted with several and hired one yesterday. | /r/Divorce_Men | 29/07/26 01:07 AM |
| 4 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedI never said she was being added to title. No property is being transferred into her name or my name. My parents were going to sell the house and gift us the funds. But now they're just selling their house. And we, as tenants, will have GTFO. | /r/Divorce_Men | 29/07/26 01:05 AM |
| 1 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedAre you me? I was in the same boat. Was hoping to keep costs down and work something out amicably or with a mediator. Thought maybe we could be roommates for a bit and get finances in order. Waste of time. 2 months later and she just keeps getting worse. No reason to drag your feet, she is strategizing on how to screw you. The safety comment really opened my eyes. I too am one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet with no history of violence, especially towards her or any other woman. Another guy … | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/07/26 11:50 PM |
| 2 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedIt's a real lawyer. She had the lawyer send me their info after the call. My lawyer and other lawyers I consulted all said she has no case but you know some of these lawyers will milk fees knowing damn well they can't deliver the promised outcome. Regardless, I'm not worried about that besides causing my parents more stress. | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/07/26 11:36 PM |
| 1 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedWow almost identical to my story. Thats how it goes man. Shes the reason for your success and you better believe she will want half of that stuff or half of the value, even if she hated all that stuff or never cared about them in the 1st place. Wishing you nothing but the best man. Have you filed already? | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/07/26 11:33 PM |
| 1 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedHmmm. We're both on the lease, I'm in California and marital funds belong to both of us so she's been technically paying rent and other bills even though the paycheck has my name on it. Are you divorced with young kids? How did it go when you kicked your spouse out of the house? Would love to hear other people's experiences. I'll run it by my lawyer. I appreciate the advice though! Thanks for replying. | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/07/26 11:31 PM |
| 1 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedThanks sir, I appreciate you! It's not my house at all. It's my parents house and has never been mine. We rented from someone else, they sold it to my parents, and we've been renting from my folks ever since. We just bought the car earlier this year so we owe more than it's worth. | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/07/26 10:26 PM |
| 2 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedYou must live in utopia, definitely not America where women fight tooth and nail for everything regardless of it making practical or legal sense. Let ME know what country or culture these reasonable women are in! | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/07/26 10:24 PM |
| 0 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedHer broke, jealous, miserable friends and family are in her ear, also she called a lawyer on speakerphone who said they will sue my parents, force a sale, and take their fees from the proceeds so she feels very empowered now. If they don't sell, she may pursue the lawsuit and perhaps that could impact the sale process? If they sell the house while she thinks she may get something, my guess is lawyers would be less inclined to attempt to sue if the house is already sold. And then I won't have to … | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/07/26 10:20 PM |
| 5 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedYeah she gave me all the clarity I needed when she started acting entitled to my parents house, shit talking me to the kids, texting me that she doesn't feel safe. I'm not giving her a damn thing besides the asset splits and support/alimony that she's legally entitled to. I'm not being generous anymore. | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/07/26 10:13 PM |
| 2 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedThanks! Exactly, she's acting super entitled. My parents house? Exclusive access of our car and master bedroom that she already voluntarily left? Texting me that "she doesn't feel safe around me." The writing is on the wall that she's going to raise all possible hell. Great point about the negotiating room. Lawyer said the same thing. I appreciate the reply. Hope you're doing well. | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/07/26 10:11 PM |
| 1 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedI don't trust her anymore. She may try to destroy the house or something if my folks keep the house and she knows she's not getting anything. She's already called a lawyer on speakerphone who said they will sue my parents and take the proceeds from the house after they force a sale. Was trying to spare my parents the drama but they're like let her try! At least I'll have some extra cash post-divorce to move forward with my life. | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/07/26 10:09 PM |
| 2 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedThank you! She unplugged the cameras around the house (hmmmm wonder what she is planning? /s) and my bodycam will be here tomorrow. I'm selling the house but she's not getting anything. Gonna sell the house during divorce so we can be evicted and then split the funds with my folks post-divorce. | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/07/26 10:05 PM |
| 1 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedThanks bro. Yes, I agree it's a terrible idea and you are spot on throughout your whole post. She's afraid of all that and frankly I was a little afraid for her when she has my kids. BUT now that is telling the kids negative things about me and feels she is absolutely ENTITLED to my parents house, she can kick rocks. My parents didn't want to sell it all but agreed to do it for me. They're still going to sell but I'll be splitting the proceeds with them, not my stbxw. | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/07/26 10:02 PM |
| -1 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedI was trying to avoid her suing my parents and putting them through that drama, plus I was hoping to entice her to work out an agreement without lawyers and move the hell on but I've since changed my mind. My parents are still going to sell but I'll be splitting the proceeds with them, not my stbxw. She can take back the Costco jewelry alone and get over $20k. That's not counting her rings and other jewelry from other places. Plus she'll get half of my small 401k so she'll be fine. Shit she's go… | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/07/26 09:59 PM |
| 1 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedHaving 2 parents homeless with 3 kids doesn't sound very conducive to my kids' well being but I guess everyone has different approaches. | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/07/26 09:55 PM |
| 1 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedJust ordered the camera, will be here tomorrow. She's been interviewing and the kids told me she got a part time job but she hasn't told me anything and hasn't been to work yet. | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/07/26 09:53 PM |
| 1 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedThank you so much! | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/07/26 08:33 PM |
| 5 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedYup I saw it immediately. Looking into cameras or recorders I can wear on me | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/07/26 08:26 PM |
| 1 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedShe doesn't have a job yet. If we get evicted, she will be homeless and my kids want to split time between both parents. Making her homeless right now would cause undue stress on my kids who are already taking the news hard. | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/07/26 08:25 PM |
| 8 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedYup never again. Now she wants everything including my parents' house! Instead of gratitude, she said I ruined her life by marrying her and taking care of her all these years even though I never asked her to stay home. She never wanted to be a stay at home mom and its all my fault. | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/07/26 08:10 PM |
| 1 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedI was already hoping for the best which is why I delayed getting a lawyer or filing until we had an agreement but now I'm prepared for war. Once you try to poison my kids minds, all bets are off. | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/07/26 08:08 PM |
| 2 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedYeah I was in the same state of disbelief until she mentioned not feeling safe today. Any cameras you recommend? | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/07/26 08:06 PM |
| 3 | You find out who she really is when you're getting divorcedGreat point. But the house is not in my name so the proceeds would go to my parents. I'll ask my lawyer before doing anything but I don't see how proceeds from the sale of assets that dont belong to the marital estate would affect things. | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/07/26 08:05 PM |
| 1 | UPDATE: Just had the talkNothing in writing besides Reddit posts. She just relayed that lawyers told her since it's always been referred to as OUR house, and I paid rent via direct payments to mortgage, taxes, insurance, etc. that she is entitled to equity. She's now demanding to be put on title or she won't agree to anything. My parents said fuck no. So I guess I'll be saddled with her lawyer fees to fight this impossible battle. | /r/Divorce_Men | 08/07/26 12:12 AM |
| 3 | UPDATE: Just had the talkThis guy divorces. In all seriousness though I really appreciate your response. | /r/Divorce_Men | 03/07/26 08:53 PM |
| 3 | UPDATE: Just had the talkSorry you're going through this man. You guys both have lawyers? Have you filed? Good luck man. Keep us posted as well. I was originally hoping for an amicable split where we just hashed out an agreement like grown adults with kids. But greed is a bitch. | /r/Divorce_Men | 03/07/26 04:48 PM |
| 3 | UPDATE: Just had the talkIts a small price to pay for peace. I can make more money. I can't get back precious time with my kids. I just want them to be ok. | /r/Divorce_Men | 03/07/26 04:43 PM |
| 2 | UPDATE: Just had the talkIt hasn't been raised the entire time we've been here, unlike their other properties. Definitely overdue 😉 | /r/Divorce_Men | 03/07/26 04:37 PM |
| 2 | UPDATE: Just had the talkI got some sleep and I'm feeling much better today. Just gotta retain a lawyer and get this show on the road. We have no other assets but I'm also self employed in addition to w-2 so those business losses mean my income isn't as high as she thinks and support won't be as high as she's hoping for. Thanks for responding! | /r/Divorce_Men | 03/07/26 04:36 PM |
| 2 | UPDATE: Just had the talkYeah we rented the house from someone else, they unexpectedly offered it for sale for below market, and my folks bought it. Value has doubled since then. But she hasn't worked in over 20 years so I'm nervous about where my kids will live when they're with her. Without any equity shes just looking at debt and support payments. Alimony for life though. | /r/Divorce_Men | 03/07/26 04:31 PM |

| 2 | UPDATE: Just had the talkI don't know what she told whatever lawyers she spoke to but she relayed to me that since marital funds were used to make payments directly for mortgage, tax, insurance, she is entitled to equity and lawyers want to "take me for a ride". Plus they told her all legal fees are mine so she's feeling emboldened | /r/Divorce_Men | 03/07/26 04:21 PM |
| 4 | UPDATE: Just had the talkYeah when she finds out they don't want to sell and the courts hopefully won't force it, I think she's going to go apeshit. I'm so screwed regardless. But this too shall pass, right? | /r/Divorce_Men | 03/07/26 07:04 AM |
| 2 | UPDATE: Just had the talkYeah lawyers are telling her I'm on the hook for legal fees so I'm afraid they will milk fees and then we'll be stuck with even more debt to split? | /r/Divorce_Men | 03/07/26 07:02 AM |
| 2 | UPDATE: Just had the talkThanks, much appreciated! | /r/Divorce_Men | 03/07/26 06:57 AM |
| 2 | UPDATE: Just had the talkYes indeed. Thank you sir | /r/Divorce_Men | 03/07/26 06:55 AM |
| 3 | UPDATE: Just had the talkI was planning on moving out when we had the talk but now no way in hell. Plus when I mentioned 50/50 she came back with every other weekend! The next day she left with the kids and I cried like a baby thinking about not seeing my kids everyday. | /r/Divorce_Men | 03/07/26 06:18 AM |

| 3 | Bad nightStay strong brother. We came from nothing and she never worked while with me. I supported my wife for nearly 25 years. Big house, luxury cars she wanted, girls trips, family vacations in 5 star hotels and mansions, jewelry, maids, spa days, daily foot rubs and massages from me while I got nothing but complaints. But of course I'm the bad guy and I never did shit for her. She literally told me her vagina is the reason she got a man like me and life that all her friends and family envy. Some girls… | /r/Divorce_Men | 03/07/26 03:21 AM |
| 1 | Just had the talkYeah exactly what happened here. She wants support in excess of my income plus equity in a house we don't own. Modern women. Don't you wanna get married again? | /r/Divorce_Men | 03/07/26 03:11 AM |
| 1 | Just had the talkI tried this. She said lawyers wanna take me a ride. I told her we have no money or assets, what are we fighting about? She's going to try and fight that she is entitled to equity in the house thats in my parents name because we made all payments with marital funds. Plus some ethical lawyer told her support will be based on my earning potential, not actual income, because of my advanced degrees. So she wants support in excess of my income. Yay for me | /r/Divorce_Men | 03/07/26 03:10 AM |
| 2 | Just had the talkYeah lawyer already told her they can take me for a ride and she's entitled to support in excess of my earnings based on my earning potential which is all BS but now anything less is me lying so I guess we fight it out in court over no assets! Wtf | /r/Divorce_Men | 03/07/26 02:56 AM |
| 1 | Just had the talkYou must have a crystal ball. We tried to sit down and work out an agreement. She balked at everything and said "lawyers wanna take you for a ride", "you have advanced degrees so support will be based on your earning potential", also "i can take my name off the car since I have no income and all debt belongs to you including my lawyer fees so why should I mediate anything" We have nothing but debt. The house is in my parents trust. Always has been although it was purchased after we were married.… | /r/Divorce_Men | 03/07/26 02:55 AM |
| 2 | Just had the talkIts already spiraling. Its been a week, now lawyers told her they "wanna take me for a ride". Our house is in my parents name and they don't want to sell. She wants to force a sale and thinks the court is going to award her support in excess of my income which makes no sense so I'm in for a long ride | /r/Divorce_Men | 03/07/26 02:48 AM |
| 1 | Ex Dating a black guyShe's taking the soul pole bro. Just imagine she's getting railed by foot longs all day and it will accelerate your healing. She belongs to the streets now. | /r/Divorce_Men | 23/06/26 06:37 AM |

| 27 | Just had the talkThis is America! Who has time to save when you gotta pay for a big house, nice cars, expensive jewelry, vacations, and girls trips to satisfy the wife's need to complain about it all and still say you ain't shit?!? | /r/Divorce_Men | 23/06/26 04:58 AM |
| 6 | Just had the talkI have a lawyer but all we have is a house and underwater car we bought earlier this year. No retirement savings. Thanks for responding. | /r/Divorce_Men | 23/06/26 04:17 AM |
| 5 | Just had the talkI can feel it coming in the air tonight 🎵 But all we have is a house with a little over $300k equity and an underwater luxury vehicle we bought earlier this year. Figured we sell the house and I take the vehicle or take the hit on selling it underwater. | /r/Divorce_Men | 23/06/26 04:14 AM |
| 3 | Just had the talkYeah its coming. Hoping to move out before the resentment of seeing me daily kicks in. Thanks for responding | /r/Divorce_Men | 23/06/26 04:00 AM |
| 2 | Just had the talkYes I agree. Only I was hoping to tell the kids once my new living situation is secured. But I need to tour some spots and I'm not sure how amicable she will be to working out a custody agreement this soon. Starting paperwork with lawyer tomorrow. Thanks for responding | /r/Divorce_Men | 23/06/26 03:59 AM |

I finance a few girls trips a year plus concerts and outings in between for her and her friends, then I'm still expected to pay for date nights, multiple family vacations per year, brand new car, big house, her credit cards. Plus we eat out almost daily because she's too overwhelmed and exhausted to cook. I had to work from home because it was too much for her to take the kids to school and pick them up everyday.

| 1 | I live in California and have been married for 20 years and my wife has been having another affair. This is the second time she’s done this and will be the third time she’s moved out, assuming she’s serious again.This is good to know. I've been married 10 to a SAHM. Deathly afraid of lifetime support. | /r/Divorce_Men | 04/06/23 04:52 AM |
