| 10 | What did you gain through divorce?You will have peace. That is worth something. | /r/Divorce_Men | 23/12/23 02:42 PM |
| 7 | Name one of the best things that has come from your divorce.Same here about the mess. She would blame the dogs...yet she and her kids were pigs. 8 huge bags of actual garbage I hauled out of her two boys bedrooms after they all finally were out. The biggest benefit, even a year later, peace. I have never enjoyed peace like I do now....it's so good I can actually taste it. I will never get married again. | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/12/23 08:14 PM |
| 2 | Why do you guys even bother getting married?The moral of the story, I won't get married again. It's a bad deal for men, especially in this state. I was in great financial shape, owned two homes, one outright, the other almost paid off. Good thing I gave one of them to my son, deed and all. This girlfriend I had, with three children, I plopped myself in the middle of her mess and married her after 3 years of dating and then living together. Her entitlement issues came to the surface right after marriage. Sex ended, and she ran a parallel l… | /r/Divorce_Men | 07/11/23 09:51 AM |
| 2 | Why do you guys even bother getting married?I learned that lesson the hard way like most of us on a 'divorce men' forum. | /r/Divorce_Men | 06/11/23 09:20 PM |
| 6 | Divorce Realization: Housework is really not that much 'work'The moral of the story, 'homemaker' is not the job the liberal feminists make it out to be. | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/10/23 08:43 PM |
| 2 | I give up on love it doesnt existWell, you are a smart man to not marry these women. Imagine if you had, like I made the mistake of doing. I think you are similar to alot of us out there dating women we meet on dating sites. Moving them in, is normal, at least to me. Keeping them as a girlfriend, treating them as a wife, is what I do as well. The one I married, I didn't meet online, but had a friendship for 7 years, dated for 3. Moved her in, and married her. We divorced last year and she demanded money, (her share of the equit… | /r/Divorce_Men | 22/10/23 06:42 AM |
| 2 | Cheating wife. Any suggestions on a good GPS tracker?Right, I agree. Where there's smoke, there's fire. You don't need to investigate what you already know. | /r/Divorce_Men | 20/10/23 08:40 PM |
| 1 | What do you guys think about MGTOWI just googled this, because I never heard of it. And of course, it would be vilified - I believe for the most part, I have gone this route. Women today are corrupted I believe, by what I see is the emasculation of men in American society. Toxic masculinity is a term I find offensive, and it's not going to change me. Funny thing is, I've read on forums in here, (reddit) women (liberal women) who are frustrated because they cannot find a man who is chivalrous. A man who is take charge....can't fi… | /r/Divorce_Men | 20/10/23 05:16 AM |
| 12 | Why won't married women have sex?It is a pattern of married life. I had a girlfriend I absolutely adored, loved and married. She and her children had nothing.... I was excited to be in a relationship with her and to have her more than just friends. I wanted to give them the world...like you said. She was grateful, thankful, in the beginning. I don't really need a bunch of thank yous and a ton of overtures of gratitude....just love and respect in return. Was shortly after I married her that the sense of entitlement "appeared" se… | /r/Divorce_Men | 21/09/23 09:34 AM |
| 2 | If you were to remarry, who would you look for?I will never get married again. It's a bad deal....for men. | /r/Divorce_Men | 15/09/23 07:58 PM |
| 5 | Woman I met said we have to be exclusive to have sexIt's not being manipulative, it's communicating her expectations. What she probably should have done, was not sleep with you the first time, and just made it clear she won't be intimate without being exclusive. What I don't understand is if you're still hung up over not being finished with your divorce, why are you dating....and why are you getting an attitude towards someone who has a value system she is trying to maintain? If you are just dating to get hook ups, you probably should be up front… | /r/Divorce_Men | 25/08/23 07:43 PM |
| 1 | How are you guys able to live alone?The bad thing about this post, is because you aren't enjoying living alone, you're probably going to jump back into the dating scene and make the same mistake all over again. | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/08/23 02:47 PM |
| 1 | Anyone making money?I'm in existence mode - my ex took one third of my bank account and I need to make that back. I don't go anywhere, just work and home....the store for supplies. In a year of living that way I should be able to make up the money. My utility bill has gone down by 2/3rds, I no longer pay for her car insurance, another big help, and all the general expectations of paying for everything is over. So I'm not making money, I'm now able to conserve better. | /r/Divorce_Men | 14/08/23 08:45 PM |
| 3 | I am on the brink of divorcing my "sweet perfect wife" and am being called a bad and terrible person - please help regain my sanityWhat a story! I was in the exact same situation....the girl I worked with, same age as yours even, married 4 years. Like yourself, this girl was hot. Pretty face, eyes, hair, perfect body, sweet voice and ultra feminine mannerisms. Everyone at work, and elsewhere....including myself, felt she was an angel. I knew her as a friend for 7 years, and she talked to me alot about problems at home with her 'abusive' husband. He resorted to hitting her and she told me she was afraid of him. She had for a… | /r/Divorce_Men | 11/08/23 07:24 AM |

| 1 | My wife has changed. I’m considering divorce. How ef’d am I?Alright, you didn't mention you already had court documented agreements. Although you're not in as bad a shape as I thought, mental health problems can work in your favor somewhat. Document everything. A written log is a legal document if it's consistent. Follow the court agreement to the penny. As far as not wanting to play the games, I understand that totally. Unfortunately, you either play, or you lose. That's why I suggested separating yourself as much as possible, with some distractions. So… | /r/Divorce_Men | 09/07/23 06:33 AM |
| 1 | My wife has changed. I’m considering divorce. How ef’d am I?Well, start small. Leave the current bank account alone, open another without telling her. I recommend Chase bank, they have an excellent online banking system. Set up your payee's through them, and pay all your bills online if you're not all ready doing so. Change direct deposit to the new account, let the old one die, transfer as much from the old account into the new, as much as possible. Lock all credit cards, if you need one have it mailed to work, and say nothing about it. If you have a Ch… | /r/Divorce_Men | 09/07/23 05:56 AM |
| 5 | My wife has changed. I’m considering divorce. How ef’d am I?You are in a bad place. Separate yourself, definitely separate your finances - her being on the deed or not being on the deed doesn't matter at this point 10 years in with a toddler now involved. The best thing you can do is have your finances completely secured. Only you have the account numbers and passwords. Create your own lair in your home, basements work great. Have good stereo equipment down there to blast music, beer refrigerator, and don't make it all comfortable where she'll want to ha… | /r/Divorce_Men | 08/07/23 05:17 PM |
| 4 | Anyone here feel like they're just never gonna date again?Welcome to my club brother. I'm not dating again, I'm not even going out on friendship coffee dates...I'm so burned out that at the ground level of burnout, I'm dug in a few levels below that. I want absolutely nothing to do with single moms ever again. I don't care how pretty they are, how sweet, none of that anymore holds an appeal if they have children. They're all walking talking venus fly traps. Peace, quiet, solitude, and no more drain on my finances and resources. No more hijacking. | /r/Divorce_Men | 25/06/23 03:57 PM |
| 1 | Divorce - If you had to do it all over againI wouldn't have had anything to do with her if I could go back in time. What a wasted investment this was for me. | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/06/23 08:56 AM |
| 2 | Getting revenge on my SBTXW and her affair partnerI related to at least one part of this story....there was a time when I was trying to see if the marriage could be salvaged. The majority of my problem was her children (and her) had entitlement issues that were at a sickening level. Long story that I've shared in here a few times. The part here that I empathize with, was during the end phase, she had been avoiding me, just not talking even though we were living together still. Not returning texts, not answering me when I spoke to her, always pu… | /r/Divorce_Men | 04/06/23 09:25 AM |
| 3 | Cheating Wivesdon't waste your money filing for separation, file for divorce. All you're going to do, is pay for two divorces, the filed separation costs as much and takes as much time as a standard divorce. If you're just going to separate, separate. Don't get a lawyer or anything, just do it and make your own separation agreement. But if you are going to the extent of filing, just file for divorce. | /r/Divorce_Men | 01/06/23 07:55 PM |
| 1 | Anyone else feel the need to get rid of just about everything and start over?I threw everything away, didn't want to deal with wasting time doing a yard sale. Bagged up 10 huge garbage bags and dumped it all. It was much faster, and it felt good ridding myself of everything. | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/05/23 08:08 PM |
| 6 | Late 20s M never married, was engaged once and it fell apart. Grateful every day. I browse here once a week to keep myself from idealising marriage. Thank you all.A wise man is a person who can learn from the mistakes of others. | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/05/23 08:13 AM |
| 3 | You served a purposePerfect description of my situation, except I am a masculine male....that wasn't the problem. My replacement is a guy shorter than her, watery bloodshot eyes, insulin pump attached along with tubing......EVEN THO she is grossed out by anything handicap. Money.....that's all she wants. He has two super high priced homes, which one of those she and her brats moved into. One foot in the grave.... Her plan, I will let you finish that part of the story. I entered this whole thing, your intro was 100%… | /r/Divorce_Men | 20/05/23 08:51 PM |
| 1 | Anyone else burned out?Wow, thank you for sharing that. It's pretty spot on - She played good cop/bad cop, making me the bad cop and the resentment became so strong, I pulled back. She then resented me for doing that, and things just went from there. I just read an article yesterday titled "delicate dumping" - where one person instead of leveling with the other person, disconnects and ghosts while still in the relationship. Making things in such a way the other person has really no choice but to leave. This is what ha… | /r/Divorce_Men | 17/05/23 08:27 AM |
| 7 | CAUTION: r/Divorce is NOT friendly to men!I just looked at that forum, it's like here except it's women posting their complaints. Obviously bias...glad I never joined I probably would be banned myself. | /r/Divorce_Men | 15/05/23 08:13 AM |
| 2 | Anyone else burned out?I'm not getting married again. I don't have it in me to even want to be in a relationship. I am enjoying my peace, tranquility, and my dogs are just fine for companionship. Going on another camping trip later this week, sit around the fire, raise my mug of beer and toast my peace and quiet. | /r/Divorce_Men | 15/05/23 07:52 AM |
| 4 | Anyone else burned out?I was friends with this woman for 7 years, we worked together. We dated for 3 years, and while I knew she had some complications, I thought we could help each other. That's what you do in relationships... There were no red flags, I gave this plenty of time before making a marriage commitment. She changed, she's not the same person I married, or dated either. My best friend who works with me, and is pretty unbias, was surprised at how things changed. "She's hot, and she won't cheat on you" was wh… | /r/Divorce_Men | 13/05/23 01:50 PM |

| 3 | My wife’s OCD compulsions border on abusive. Should I divorce?I just divorced an ocd'r myself. Some of the same problems you described, I had to deal with. Only, I went along only up to what I thought was reasonable. Washing hands constantly, I didn't think was all that bad. When she became all ocd'd over her medication she was taking for that, it all went downhill from there. I told her, her ocd wasn't going to hold me hostage, I would live as I pleased and if she wanted to take a bunch of precautions on her own, that was up to her. Obviously, we grew far… | /r/Divorce_Men | 21/04/23 08:16 AM |
| 3 | How do you guys deal with the fact your ex-wives could pick anyone up in a week, but it might take you YEARS (or never)?My wife (ex wife) was really hot. That type of girl who doesn't have to do absolutely anything, and wear a potato sack, and still look good. That's all this girl brought to the table. My marriage was so one sided, it drained me to the point of now that it's over, I don't even want to date. The thought of marriage sickens my stomach. She had a boyfriend the day after we separated and that was the best thing that could have possibly happened...it got her and her brats out of my house fast. I own m… | /r/Divorce_Men | 13/04/23 08:48 AM |
| 2 | Fuck, this hurts.Man, I wouldn't worry about dating right now. You're still extracting yourself from a mess and you're not over it. Your jealous about what your wife is doing with other men, comparing dates to your wife....not fair to them. Going into dating just for the sake of practice, is a bad idea and unfair to the women your dating. Your basically wasting their time. I too am from NY, and am in the tail end of a divorce. I am enjoying my peace and quiet now, and even though my wife (ex now) is in another m… | /r/Divorce_Men | 09/04/23 10:26 AM |
| 2 | The BEST parts about being divorcedI am so burned out, the list of "bests" is limitless. I for one, don't care anymore how pretty, how bubbly, how anything any of these single mom's out there are. Since my first divorce, I have taken in two single moms with children who were disrespectful, ungrateful, entitled....and so was the mom after getting comfortable. In both cases, they wanted to take over my house. This last one, I married and trusted. I knew her for 7 years and we were friends. She was hot, sweet, shy, not stuck up....a… | /r/Divorce_Men | 23/03/23 08:54 AM |
| 3 | Who else has noticed...Yeah, I've joined that same club. I look at young pretty single moms now as venus fly traps. I'm not interested in dating either, I'm loving my peace and quiet, tranquility, my money goes so much farther....the list goes on. I think we don't truly appreciate peace and quiet, until we lose it....then get it back. I've got a girlfriend whom I had a crush on years ago, drop into my lap on facebook. She flew out to see me, had a great weekend, and I'm flying to see her next in a few weeks. I like it… | /r/Divorce_Men | 18/03/23 09:09 AM |

| 5 | What would you guys do?I'll never again date a single mother. I don't care how pretty they are either. They all want the same thing; a man to be a father figure. Not just a figurehead, someone who "passes the child test" by sucking up to the kids to the point they like you. And then, you will be spending alot of time with those kids while the mom goes out with friends, family, does what she wants. Also, they want a man who has a house they can move in and eventually get a stake in it. I don't know how old you are, but… | /r/Divorce_Men | 09/03/23 09:48 PM |
| 5 | I many of you guys tried to save a marriage due to attraction without really realizing it?All that glitters isn't gold. What good is being with a beautiful woman who mistreats you? I'm in a divorce right now, and my wife is hot. Small, nice body, very pretty hair, eyes, face....and none of that matters to me. Sure she's nice to look at, but my privilege for paying for everything, supporting her and her children, is her presence in my home. I feel like I'm living alone with a single mom raising her children here at my expense. As soon as we separated, like the next day, she had a new … | /r/Divorce_Men | 07/03/23 09:52 AM |
| 11 | can't move onShe did you a favor. You might not see it now because you're clouded with grief. Your foresight however, is better than mine. I was in love, romance...all that, in a relationship I never thought would end and now I'm in a divorce, paying her money she demands for not damaging me. This girl of yours is blackmailing you by dating others....is a manipulation to get you jealous enough to ignore those red flags. Don't do it. | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/03/23 12:51 PM |
| 2 | I think today was the day.Yeah, I'm thinking that could be a very convenient narrative. And they want to think it's only men who have "lines" - good luck brother | /r/Divorce_Men | 27/02/23 10:35 AM |
| 7 | I think today was the day.Man, I feel for you. Going through a divorce myself with a woman I was friends with for 7 years before we dated. She was in an abusive relationship, was a battered wife. Children abused and hit as well. I helped her 'escape', told her she should now be with her children for awhile, she owed me nothing because we were friends. She said she had feelings for me and wanted to be with me. Of course she's beautiful and has that old fashioned female nature that I find attractive, irresistible. I own my… | /r/Divorce_Men | 26/02/23 09:23 PM |
| 12 | Every "single mom" in OLDI will never ever date young women again, or single moms. I don't care how pretty they are, I am sick of being taken... Never marry a single mom, they will take from you, once the relationship expires. I learned this lesson the hard way. I am only dating women with grown children who don't live at home. | /r/Divorce_Men | 20/02/23 04:00 PM |
| 1 | NYS divorce - is this a good deal?so if we agree, and I pay her what she's asked and signs an uncontested divorce, do you think it could go through without some judge interfering? | /r/Divorce_Men | 18/02/23 12:45 PM |
| 4 | The worse mistake I ever made in lifeWell I honestly thought that this relationship was for life. Friends first, in love, romance was an every day thing. And like a light switch, it went off. There other factors involved here, but I trusted the relationship because we loved each other. Weird to be in the position to want to be rid of her. She's pretty, I was always super attracted to her. Yet when time goes by and you find out that this is all she brings to the table, "all that glitters, isn't gold." | /r/Divorce_Men | 12/02/23 12:26 PM |
| 11 | The worse mistake I ever made in lifeI could have written this myself. I knew my girlfriend for 7 years as friends, we started dating and she moved in. Then we were married after three years of dating. Shortly after the marriage, she changed. Complaining about the house not being up to her standards even though it was the best place she's ever lived. Never helped clean, ever, unless I started cleaning myself and that means throwing things of hers away....so she would clean at that point. Kids NEVER cleaned up after themselves. One … | /r/Divorce_Men | 11/02/23 09:11 AM |
