Mistake

Thinking that she still had my best interest in mind...

Thinking she will do this peacefully and then attack me with different orders and decree. When she realizes she is on the losing end, begging me to do it peacefully for our son.... then attack me again with stupid orders and decree. I was an idiot and still am.

Not asking her "you want to say I'm sorry"? Or perhaps "can we talk about this?" (Yet again, me doing damage control) It would have put the skids to everything. Even at the bitter end. But no. Her way or the highway. And thus, despite our kids, our family unit went to hell. I guess it was just meant to be.

Edit" "not asking..."

1 Not Deleting my hidden email account

2 Leaving the Family home to clear my head

3 Not grabbing my safety deposit box key before leaving

4 Not getting the wife to sign an agreement about shared custody and access before I left

Believing her when she said her last marriage ended because he cheated on her.

Not calling her ex before getting married

Not getting prenup

Getting married

Not ending it first time I caught her cheating

Not calling the cops on her when she tried to stab me

Not ending it second time caught cheating (for the children)

Not getting lawyer first

Not filing first

Not having enough money to take it to trial

Living in a shit divorce county

Going cheap on attorney later found out she was ex cordel and cordel attorney

Not recording everything, that almost cost me everything.

Actually believing anything she said to me.

Refusing to believe that she was a vile POS that wanted to take me to the cleaners and could care less about how she hurt her own children.

Rushing from separation to divorce. There were things I could have done....admittedly hard things, like living separately for awhile and giving up our then-home...but we agreed to divorce 1 month into the separation and man I wish I had given it longer.
