2	A different feeling than I thought. My ex wasn't unfaithful (and neither was I, for the record) but she definitely was emotionally closed off and also scrolling Tiktok or Instagram constantly. She also compulsively bought a metric shit ton of stuff on Amazon that filled our entire garage took me over a month to get rid of when selling the house. I wonder to what extent these things made it easy to ignore the people in front of her because you're getting that dopamine drip from you phone. When we were in couple's therapy one thing …	/r/Divorce_Men	19/03/26 09:07 PM
1	Why, just why. I appreciate it sir. It's nice to have a place where people have been through similar things, and we can at least laugh about it. I talked to my family about it, but I'm just tired of being upset and frustrated and feeling like I'm just stuck in this never-ending cycle. People who haven't been through it themselves get frustrated on my behalf and are shocked that things are happening this way, but I'm beyond anger and shock now. I feel like the best thing I can do is just accept that this is a c…	/r/Divorce_Men	12/11/22 09:39 PM
1	Why, just why. At least here I don't feel alone. My experience seems like it's been pretty close to yours, when it comes to dealing with numbers that have no basis in reality, and which it would seem to take very little actual math skill to even recognize, versus simple common sense. The actual judge was just promoted to the chief of the entire divorce court division, and seems to be able to process simple math at least. But seriously, it's mind-boggling to be interacting with other so-called professionals and…	/r/Divorce_Men	12/11/22 09:35 PM
1	Why, just why. Appreciate the advice and feedback. Yes, we have our next pretrial on Monday, and I plan to go into this saying that if we don't resolve things that day then it needs to move to trial. Your ex reminds me of mine, I have no idea what kind of advice she could have gotten or understanding of our assets she could have that she believes this has been a rational course of action. More to me than any money though, is the time. Especially since I want kids. My ex knew that when we got married, and the p…	/r/Divorce_Men	12/11/22 09:25 PM
1	What is the point of a lawyer?! Sounds like a tough road brother. I was dealing with a lot of the same - dead bedroom (when we were supposedly trying for a baby), just all around poor communication. I admit this was on both sides - I've learned a lot about the patterns we were going through since she filed, and we had a lot of the anxious-avoidant relationship going on. She was avoidant and fit the mold pretty classically. I was definitely on the anxious side. I kept trying to break through her silent disengagement and rebuild…	/r/Divorce_Men	05/09/22 04:48 AM
1	Lost, depressed, scared, dont know what to do, Questions need help with please. I don't know if you're still reading through these replies, but I wanted to say I'm sorry you're going through all this right now. You come across as a decent man, and for whatever reason she has decided you are not what she wants any more. It's not really worth speculating on why; maybe she sees people online showing off some new romance, or griping with friends/family trying to convince her that she could do "better". But if you've been sticking with her and trying to support her as a partner …	/r/Divorce_Men	05/09/22 02:21 AM
1	What is the point of a lawyer?! I know this is an old post but I'm reading through these as my own divorce is (hopefully) winding down, and it's just depressing to see the same story play out over and over. Fortunately in our case, we were married under 5 years before filing, so any maintenance would be very limited in duration. Also have no kids. But what boggles my mind is the choice by my ex (and yours) to forego mediation and bankrupt themselves on lawyers instead of working out what would have been the exact same deal in …	/r/Divorce_Men	05/09/22 01:50 AM
2	Kindergarten teacher finds Legos are good for cognitive development in young children and bans boys from playing with them in order to "close the gender gap" Men and women are both going against biases, but it's not difficult to see that in Western societies most of the societal power and influence has traditionally been held by men. To act as though it's a "separate but equal" struggle for a man to want to become an elementary school teacher as it is for a woman to become an engineer or CEO is disingenuous. Both may get pushback but the degree and the places it's coming from are very unlikely to be the same. That's not to say that I agree with peopl…	/r/MensRights	18/04/17 04:22 PM
