| 1 | Guys Who've Been Through Divorce: What Was the HARDEST Part to Get Used To?Many a times you will hear stories in the market that you told someone in confidence of confidentiality :) So if you want true confidentiality, use reddit and not any real person to vent :) | /r/Divorce_Men | 06/12/25 11:47 PM |
| 8 | Guys Who've Been Through Divorce: What Was the HARDEST Part to Get Used To?Hardest part was to understand, that it's YOUR crisis, no one else generally gives a shit on how you are faring, not friends not your workplace. They have their own lives to live, and rightfully so. So I started to enjoy my time alone, with my motorcycle, my treks and adventures. Tried bumble a few times and get ghosted by the matches. But I am not begging for attention, love or external validation. And that's much more a fulfilling realization that you are not dependent and are truly "single" n… | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/12/25 03:14 PM |
| 4 | Ashamed of my inability to get over what caused the divorce. I’ve become so cruel. I need to get this off my chest. I’m not a good person anymore.Don't stress out on this man, wound is fresh and so is the feeling for revenge. With time it will go away, or not. Don't bother too much about it. If it gives you pleasure, then that's the hurt talking. We always reset back to our true nature after sometime. So let it be, stop overthinking. With time you will be able to see beyond her and her suffering, and then automatically you will stop getting such negative pleasures. You are in a low beam area so focussing on the ground, once you hit the sm… | /r/Divorce_Men | 07/11/25 12:07 PM |

| 1 | [M33, W30] My life is perfect and my wife loves me, but I want to start overWere you attracted before marriage? Has she put on weight? If not attracted what were the reasons you got married, were you indebted by her due to something? Ayways if it is weight etc, that can be handled, but if you are totally averse o loving her, then you have done a tremendous wrong to her. But anyways staying in this marriage with that sort of thought process would not be good. So talk to her explain, and whatever she asks for alimony, you have to try to meet it. Even then it might not be … | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/11/25 04:25 PM |

But anyways, what are the events that made you change your view is unknown to all of us. But if you having a mood change after marriage, you need to identify the root cause, before that you shouldn't even have brought this up with your wife. It's like going to classroom without homework. You have directly brought up pros on cons of staying vs leaving, but that it for later, first analyze "why", else you don't even know what you are running from an… | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/11/25 03:17 AM |

| 4 | Honest questions regarding all your ex wiveshmm this is the same with me, I was never her confidante, She will not open up to me and be honest on what she said. I asked her that give me some peaceful time so that I can reskill and upgrade and hunt for a better paying job so that we can make a better living condition, she said yes and just after 2-3 days started fighting. I gave up trying for the upskill after a month of that. Shows clearly she was not in my team or our team whatever way you put it. And this was years before we filed.

Give opinions only when related to effects on your son. No opinions, no chit chats on other topics. She should be a co-parent, all the other feelings you are having is because it is fresh and she has already moved on but you are not.

I only tried to tell her and not any family or friends, even now I don't discuss - but the major stressor my x - she's gone now and I am in my notice period in office as I will be taking sabbatical. 2 major stressors gone , my mental health taking and uptick | /r/Divorce_Men | 20/03/25 02:47 AM |
| 0 | Do I visit my dying Ex-wife?go or not go it's all upto you and not on reddit advice ... however get ur current partner in confidence even if you do. when you decide either way last word to meet or not is upto ur ex and not anyone else. if she doesn't want to then know that beforehand you drop in. people when passing on may hold on to old regrets and in a way might even blame you, you don't want such a memory in such cases. | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/03/25 08:47 AM |
| 1 | Does it get *any* better once papers are signed?This is a very common scenario my ex also had tried to get in touch since shit got finalized. In court her gripe was no one is giving emotional support. I just nodded, internally I was thinking that I told her the same fucking words when she was trampling my heart, I told all who are instigating you will vanish the day they see you divorced, you will just be another story in their chit chats. And exactly the same happened, even with me ... however since I don't heed to what others instigate my d… | /r/Divorce_Men | 30/01/25 09:57 AM |

Not that I am asking them to hand hold me, but the fuck if you won't ask me from time to time how I am doing? Expecting stuff from others has been painful, so I keep myself to my hobbies. It used to feel so disrespectful that I always used to call them up, so when I realized they will easily walk by me taking me for a tree if I don't ping them, I stopped. Now that means a lot of them have gone away from my radar but I have ga… | /r/Divorce_Men | 20/01/25 05:15 AM |
| 1 | Never thought it would come to this but may be headed to jail for support payments not adjusted appropriately 😔I believe you need to take the court orders seriously and try your best not to miss out on them, even when fighting the court orders you need to show your best effort. It doesn't pay for you to get jailed and thus loose any prospect of jobs by ur ex. Make her understand and try to work out a better deal which can be consisent. Best of luck in figuring this out. Ask the court to be lenient as in no way can you manage without a car etc living 2.5 hrs away from the court. | /r/Divorce_Men | 16/01/25 03:49 PM |
| 2 | Never thought it would come to this but may be headed to jail for support payments not adjusted appropriately 😔you have messed up big time ... when you haven't sorted up your first ones payments and financial stuff you got into making babies with another !! what if there also you get liable for the second family, don't think I am being pessimistic, this is being aware of worst case scenarios. | /r/Divorce_Men | 16/01/25 02:32 AM |

| 2 | STBXW ThreatsAbusers will show fake remorse if it suits them, or go extremely cold and behave as if you deserved it. I am also a victim, due to an exponential difference in strength none of her actions caused me any major harm physically, but mentally it was a real shock to see someone whom you hold so dear and love and can never ever think of putting your hands on in a wrong way, turn up and attack you like that. And this behavior doesn't stop. What she is threatening you of is a typical threat I too receiv… | /r/Divorce_Men | 13/01/25 08:46 AM |

When I moved out from my last apartment on the last day when I gave the keys to the owner in the empty apartment this whole scene came to my mind, even though she had moved out almost a year earlier I was moving out from a house first time without her in tow and the last scene of friends and how she was upset wa… | /r/Divorce_Men | 13/01/25 01:37 AM |
| 2 | Life After the WarI played it safe to avoid property splitting at time of divorce which is another added headache. In the back of my mind the fear of divorce was always there, because she used to keep threatening divorce. So even though I wanted a home of my own and a pet dog too, I prevented myself from making that investment and so going on life in a rental. Buying a house for the remaining 15-20 years? yes I want to but it's a money that I don't want to lock in loans and EMIs. Maybe after 2-3 years will find s… | /r/Divorce_Men | 12/01/25 02:55 AM |

| 6 | Did you ever reconcile after the divorce?STBXW - there is no F for friend there in that acronym. Forget friendship. Just be there for your kids at max so be "friendly" but not friend. People get cold feet due to FOMO, did she come back when you wanted? cold feet based decisions are mostly flimsy unless there is any self realization. At the maximum I would ask you two to go for couples counselling and let the beans spill out there. | /r/Divorce_Men | 11/01/25 10:05 AM |
| 1 | Why ex-wives act "fine" after a divorceyes, people give gas to get the ex's ballon up and once its up they loose interest and leave, then they "have their shit, and eat it too" scenario. Mine said that hers were not supportive post divorce. Many of my acquaintances who used to say leave this marriage for years, don't bother to call and ask how am I doing, so I am glad i didn't divorce just on their advice but on my own personal realisation so I am in a better place. | /r/Divorce_Men | 09/01/25 04:00 AM |

| 1 | First night in new apartmentI remember shifting my house and in my mind it was like a battlefield. boxes and clothes capturing my beds and every floor section. First day I made a room by pushing all these unpacked stuff in one half of the bed. That room was my base of operations ... packing and storing stuff in proper place. Moved room to room like this and captured every inch of my new apartment. Took one week, fight was brutal, but I was trained hard by the meanest girl :) | /r/Divorce_Men | 02/01/25 12:27 PM |

No matter what life threw at all of us here, I hope you all too smile to some memories when you were standing alone and dreamt of a happy life and love, no matter the history, it maybe too late for many of us to find love or being able to take the risk again.

Yes you maybe hurt on getting blindsided by her filing but in case regret is genuine then maybe you should see if you were also happy before she filed, if you were not then go ahead and don't budge.

This one is a good friend though. The other one was like a storm !! Got called names even when the storm was receding, my only reply was "now where did I hear this before !! Oh yeah right .... I remember :D ... you two are so similar !!!" | /r/Divorce_Men | 30/12/24 07:03 AM |
| 4 | Feeling overwhelmed by the thought of datingexactly same happened with me. 2 women approached and one just lashed out at me when I rejected her advances the other is a friend and I remind her everytime she outpours I can't date or consider her more than friend ever I have made her clear. Too much effort I feel to have a relationship right now. specially since I am planning a sabbatical I want it to be filled with adventures, treks, skiing and motorcycling around :) | /r/Divorce_Men | 30/12/24 01:39 AM |
| 2 | How do you really be happy for your ex wife?exactly ... more we age we realize all this hate and anger for someone who has already left is waste of MY time. Also just to spate them if we do something is again a sign of not letting it go and you want to make them realize their mistake. all the while we forget, they are heroes/heroines of their own story - however fucked up it feels in our mind. | /r/Divorce_Men | 27/12/24 02:21 AM |

| 3 | Those men who are finished with divorceMine was generously fair, wanted to have her life smoothened for coming few years but not lifelong blank cheque. Mainly because I still cared for her and I have no regrets about that. Money comes and goes but regret stays :D A reason why I didn't buy a house because there were fights from very early in my marriage and she showed all the signs of being instable and ready to bring up the divorce topic every now and then. I dodged a bullet there. | /r/Divorce_Men | 18/12/24 05:23 AM |

| 2 | Has a “break” ever worked on rekindling a marriage?there is no problem in trying out and seeing if there can be reunion. but be ready that it may go towards divorce, so don't put yourself in a emotionally precarious situation where you see this as an opportunity to woo her anew. see this as her opportunity to weigh her pros and cons and see if she is making a mistake. if she decides it's good for her then you can't change her mind even if you stand on one leg for a whole day. just prepare yourself mentally. | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/09/24 02:10 PM |

| 4 | My ex wife found out I wrote poetry about her during divorce, now wants to talkEmotions to reconnect with a person who is cheating is and always will be a weakness in my books. Yes you can be sad about the loss but never reconnect and open up urself to more abuse later. | /r/Divorce_Men | 19/09/24 08:00 AM |
| 5 | My ex wife found out I wrote poetry about her during divorce, now wants to talkI really think you should read before you comment: "During my drunkenness she cheated with an ex. I don’t necessarily blame her as I was not a functioning man for several years at the end." Moreover writing poetry or not is not weak, the reconnecting with the ex and letting her creep into his life is what I am warning about. This is really BS and allowing for more abuse to let happen in future. Anyways it's finally upto OP to take any advice of leave it :D Cheers anyways !! | /r/Divorce_Men | 19/09/24 07:58 AM |
| 12 | My ex wife found out I wrote poetry about her during divorce, now wants to talkone word "cheated" !! you would have a better time with a punching bag in a gym. Don't bullshit yourself with weak emotions. | /r/Divorce_Men | 19/09/24 04:30 AM |
| 3 | Married men should never buy a house; always rent from your parentsexactly ... in my case I don't own a house as everytime we would dream of the same and lookout for a nice suburb place, the lid will fly off within a week and threats of divorce will come heavy and thick. I used to shit my pants and drop the plan. Happened 4-5 times in roughly 10 years of being together when I ditched this plan altogether and became content with my status. As of today I don't have to worry about one more thing :) luck saved me | /r/Divorce_Men | 19/09/24 01:53 AM |

| 3 | I feel trapped after the divorce. hear me about!First have kids, then get divorced, fight for custody and then bitch about it that you got custody? Well think before you do something. Never wish for something that once granted would make you shit bricks !! They are not pets, they are your responsibilities. Having kids is a lot of responsibility, divorced or not. You should have started with a cute little puppy first :D then graduate to kids once you get used to care for them. | /r/Divorce_Men | 06/09/24 04:50 AM |
| 5 | How do i navigate through this life dilemma?She may be a good woman till you are in her hit list. Don't budge on the prenup. If you are important enough for her, then she will accept a fair prenup if drafted without ill intentions. | /r/Divorce_Men | 02/09/24 01:30 PM |
| 1 | Just Wondering - Were you warned about Divorce?Yes kept threatening from beginning and I would try to be her emotional gatekeeper, but it never helped. After repeatedly running away from home she finally decided (till recently, when she had cold feet) to divorce. In due time I started to accept the fact and now think that if she had to change I had given her enough time and patience to be back. | /r/Divorce_Men | 02/09/24 11:38 AM |
| 2 | "Happier After Divorce"New place to live ... yes you can do it. New family, hmm you would need to think about that, as it will bring additional responsibilities. Also the person with whom you grow old it takes time to get used to them and their eccentricities and at 40s there is not too much of that time. Whatever you do don't feel rushed to fit into some norm. I too wanted a family and miss that experience to have kids and a wife and without that I don't feel it useful to be in a high stress job. Since we are all wal… | /r/Divorce_Men | 01/09/24 02:04 AM |
| 13 | "Happier After Divorce"Welcome to the club ! All those who are happy now including me were just as clueless as you regarding "what next?" In due course we learnt whatever gonna happen we will deal with it when the time comes. Many of us didnt want our life to be about this sub-reddit, but here we are !! Band of brothers just getting by each day bit by bit. I still feel jealous of people with their partners around, but have learnt to accept my truth and move on. You can't control people but you can decide not to loose … | /r/Divorce_Men | 31/08/24 07:16 PM |
| 1 | Back to square one.Great !! you are realising it !! | /r/Divorce_Men | 27/08/24 02:30 PM |
| 2 | Back to square one.One more thing I keep learning everytime anew, if someone says to leave them alone or get lost. Believe in their judgement. I have tried to more than once reached out to people who are literally ghosting me and got another ghosting done on me :) it is a self-respect killer. Don't do what I have fallen prey to multiple times thinking this time it's different. It is never different, someone asks you to leave them alone, trust them and just make yourself scarce. You don't need to be happy about it,… | /r/Divorce_Men | 27/08/24 02:29 PM |
| 3 | Back to square one.What I mean is that the ship has sailed, and she has chosen someone new. And maybe opened up to him about you too? Do you want to forever get compared to that guy who was there after you? Stay away from reconciliation as of now. Maybe it's the existing hurt from the incomplete healing. But in due time it will get better. Stay strong. | /r/Divorce_Men | 26/08/24 03:39 PM |
| 10 | Back to square one.Don't use the same tissue paper twice !! - advice works well both inside the restroom and after divorce. | /r/Divorce_Men | 26/08/24 03:36 PM |
| 3 | A small gesture, but it hurts.I get it, when we go to the court dates she comments that I look great and fit. I somedays feel that I should drop the ball and ask her to come back, she hints the same but never apologizes for her actions. Then I steel myself with the years of neglect and abuse I suffered in her hands and after getting home I congratulate myself on not buckling. The thing is once we are separated we see the better moods of the X-people, that is mainly because they have thrown us under a bus. Never make the mist… | /r/Divorce_Men | 25/08/24 01:34 PM |

| 3 | Just an update since last year…Only tip of wisdom: Stick to being dad to your kids, their mom is just a hurdle to bypass. Her being happy or not is not your business anymore. She cheated on you remember that. Just appear to be friendly but internally don't give a shit about it. Reach for pickup punctually, flash that friendly smile, get hold of your kids and rush off to your own life. Your ex needs to have her own set f friends to bitch about the person she cheated on you with. | /r/Divorce_Men | 12/08/24 05:03 PM |
| 2 | BPD - the flip is realHaha, good that you picked the lock, must have bolstered your belief that you did right by getting out from her clutches !! Congrats on a great decision. I bet you were self congratulating yourself when the meltdown started :D | /r/Divorce_Men | 12/08/24 04:59 PM |
| 3 | Divorce and the aftermath.After divorce she and you are separate, why go for the divorce if you are sleeping together and playing family. This won't end well either for you or for her. Go and make some space between both of you. Figure out why you divorced then figure out if you want to remarry her again. All this relationship talk should have happened before filing for divorce, you guys are doing the opposite way. Stay apart and decide for yourself if you want to get married again? This Ex-Wife-With-Benefits is the firs… | /r/Divorce_Men | 12/08/24 04:54 PM |
| 3 | Divorce and the aftermath.What is this? Your living condition is totally a tinder box. GTFO or kick her out. What are you even thinking? Do the right thing before she gets some idea and kick her out. Don't be lazy on this regards or you will regret dearly later. And what is this looking at her phone and shit? Honor the divorce and act like a divorced person. Do this yesterday !! | /r/Divorce_Men | 12/08/24 02:55 PM |
| 1 | What are some if the red flags in the beginning of the relationship that you missed?are these women's brains get manufactured in some shady place in china? why do they all feel like a cheap copy and easy to break down :) | /r/Divorce_Men | 07/08/24 05:41 AM |
| 6 | So...does anyone still talk to the EMIL?I would never !! She is a dragon who breathed fire on my marriage while it was there, insulted me with false words and never apologised (the same strain of gene my wife acquired). However the FIL was a bit better but he never stood up for me or let me know he supported me except after we filed he asked me if I can reconsider - Well you should have took a stance for me and let me know instead of being passive when all injustice I was going through. I don't have any ill will for any one in their f… | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/08/24 11:24 AM |
| 8 | All a woman has to do is marry an engineer in college, wait 10 years and she’s retiredMarriage is like a job where once the employee quits she earns the money instead when she is in the job. I wish real companies were also like this, I too leave a job when it becomes toxic, stressful and undervalues me why am I not given alimony by the company ;) | /r/Divorce_Men | 01/08/24 01:14 AM |
| 1 | Red flags in possible future wives!12 year old brat !! sums up my stbxw. she tries to talk as if we are friends in court and when back not a single apology. I know she is in two minds but I am trying to stand firm. she initiated the divorce I never wanted it. now I am glad she did as it helped me go out from years of abuse and stress. | /r/Divorce_Men | 31/07/24 01:23 AM |

| 3 | What did you learn the hard way from your marriage and divorce experience?this is very true, people tend to shun the one in trouble because our topic maybe a mood killer for their fun day out. I don't resent them, but try to make a habit of reciprocal contact, call them once and then let them call you the next time. Once when I was trying to reach out for help I used to call every week now its barely once a month if someone asks about me, otherwise I keep myself busy with my stuff and going for a day of riding on my motorcycle. | /r/Divorce_Men | 26/07/24 02:20 PM |

| 9 | Red flags in possible future wives!This is a gem. In our time no one was discussing npd, bpd, manipulation tactics. In our circles the uncle's who were suffering due to the manipulative aunts were mocked instead of being sympathised. If one has kids now is is best to teach them the signs of these behaviours !! | /r/Divorce_Men | 21/07/24 01:58 AM |
