I'm 23. Never gonna get married. You'll never see me at the mall hauling a stroller along with a depressed look on my face, or walking with a nagging wife forcing me to hold her hand. I thank older men for sharing experiences so I know what to avoid.

DangZagnut · 2018-10-09T15:33:31+00:00

It never is. Why did you marry her in the first place? Wet hole wonder?

betterredthenwed · 2018-10-09T15:40:57+00:00

In my case it 100%. Half up front. The remaining half was within a few dollars of the "maintenance schedule".

One hundred fucking percent.

Some patriarchy, huh? I would have preferred some oppression.

A man works all his life and builds his savings, but a single bitch can make half of it disappear with a snap of her finger.

39 "pay alimony and give up half of my retirement "

Did you hear that brothers? Do you still want "divorce rape equality"?

Delita_Wasnt_Wrong · 2018-10-09T15:48:47+00:00

Same story for me but I learned at 32. It’s not worth it, if you can’t/won’t get a doll get a fleshlight or an automatic blowjob toy. Fuck em

sevenoaks-geezer · 2018-10-09T18:31:20+00:00

Marriage cost me hundreds of thousands even though we never had kids and she had a decent job. The penalty for me saving money and her pissing it up the wall on crap. Never again!

DrFeelFantastic · 2018-10-09T18:21:24+00:00

Alimony is to offset wages a woman fails to earn or be able to earn because she's spent her life raising the couples kids instead of focusing on a career. There's no way an even half decent lawyer would get you stuck paying it after only five years. Did you even have any children? Where do you live? There's no way I'd be paying a woman ANYTHING under those circumstances.

MarketWatcher9456 · 2018-10-09T16:38:48+00:00

I'm sorry brother. Only about the loss of your retirement. I'm happy for your new freedom.

roxon89 · 2018-10-09T16:08:22+00:00

How much alimony? How was it calculated? Did she work at all during the marriage?

BadassGT-CS · 2018-10-09T16:09:09+00:00

#METOO. Only it was 25yrs. :( Life is great now though.

Jhamption · 2018-10-09T18:52:56+00:00

At least your hole was wet.

stent00 · 2018-10-09T15:49:02+00:00

welcome to the club... bro

silive · 2018-10-09T16:35:57+00:00

Glad I was never even close to signing my life away. Actually, never even allowed one to move in and now am in the strictly "monk mode" & Pence/Graham rule. Don't trust any of them and never will. They're all the self-serving liars and without ANY exceptions. AWALT!!

westnblue · 2018-10-09T18:28:41+00:00

Thankyou for your sacrifice

TyroneTheDriver · 2018-10-09T18:07:24+00:00

I’d really love to know more about how a woman can claim a right to your ducking retirement account?

Please someone educate me and don’t be snarky about it state facts because evidently I’m completely ignorant on marriage and divorce law.

korowjev · 2018-10-09T19:42:59+00:00

How long will you have to pay?

kungfuchess · 2018-10-10T01:18:43+00:00

Well im 35 never married with no kids and plan to keep it that way. I learned from my uncles growing up. All of them were players, good looking guys having multiple relationships with different women. One of them got raked over the coals in two divorces. He warned me to date as many women as I could but never get married. Best advice I ever got.

MiddleAgedMGTOW · 2018-10-09T18:52:16+00:00

Don’t beat yourself up. I made that error twice.

squidracer · 2018-10-09T21:05:34+00:00

Sounds like one of my co workers. He's in the same situation. Wasn't even matter Married for long, but she's taking that money

JeffreyGein · 2018-10-09T16:49:35+00:00

My sincerest condolences.

Older_Miggy · 2018-10-09T20:26:03+00:00

You still have a great life ahead of you. And you can more than make up those losses.

Now hide every penny you can from her, just in case.

The__Tren__Train · 2018-10-09T21:09:37+00:00

good thing you got it done before the year was over or else you wouldnt be able to deduct that alimony on your tax return.

make sure you don't sign any document saying that you want to operate under the new guidelines set forth in Trump's new tax law.

We are about the same age. What happenned in your marriage? I really did want kids. My buddy got out of a 5 yr marriage and he got remarried a year later. I do not know why he did it. What is your story?

your_inner_asshole · 2018-10-09T22:14:19+00:00

Chin up! Just keep reminding yourself, "Why is divorce expensive? Because it's fucking worth it!"

zero5hole · 2018-10-09T22:16:04+00:00

Thanks for being humble and sharing your story

cleats4u · 2018-10-09T22:33:32+00:00

5 years of marriage does not equal half your retirement. Only half of what you put in and what it earned during the 5 years of marriage. Unless you just signed what ever an attorney handed you during mediation.

WorkaholicJosh · 2018-10-09T22:53:28+00:00

I feel bad for the Dads that have to take care of the kids on the weekends so Mom can have alone time. Work 5 days a week just to take care of the kids on your 2 days off.

HodlingSteady · 2018-10-09T22:57:32+00:00

Damn she got all that after 5 years!? Sorry to hear that man.

When did you know it was the beginning of the end?

saturnisbestplanet · 2018-10-09T20:41:48+00:00

Half the retirement is the worst part. You can try to earn back the money. You only get one retirement. That is bullshit. I'm glad I never got married. Single for life.

b_r_e_a_k_f_a_s_t · 2018-10-09T21:05:30+00:00

Half the retirement up to this point or even future savings?

Usuqamadiq · 2018-10-10T00:21:02+00:00

How the fuck do you have to give up half of your retirement for only 5 years? Usually it is 10 years because the typical retirement from a company is 20. You're getting screwed dude, sorry. I am too via child support but at least you dodged that bullet. I'm fixing that issue for the future via Vasectomy tomorrow though.

Atton_Risk · 2018-10-10T08:09:15+00:00

Buy a plane ticket

lemonncheese · 2018-10-10T08:25:02+00:00

I was in same boat. Yet to get settlements done.

Breguet_7727 · 2018-10-10T10:14:54+00:00

We have this post here and I'm sure there's some blue pill cunts/thots who's out there going " they're misogynists teehee"

EmptyNewspaper · 2018-10-10T11:05:22+00:00

How soul-sucking was she?

Could you describe more?

Ignore this if you don't want to.

soapek1 · 2018-10-10T11:58:42+00:00

Thank god i am young and will know to never make that mistake.

Bogey9119 · 2018-10-12T23:18:03+00:00

39 as well my friend. Ex wife decided she wanted a better life with someone else after 21 years together. You are correct, it isn’t worth it. Anyone reading these comments remember these stories. I was conditioned to believe marriage was the natural progression of my life. Meet a girl, get married, have kids and grow old together. It’s all a joke. There is no such thing as true love. A woman’s love is conditional on what you are doing for them at the time. At some point they will decide you aren’t useful to them anymore. Or they will meet someone else and be convinced life will be better with that person.

ShuziN · 2018-10-09T22:13:15+00:00

How did she get alimony? And that PLUS half your retirement? How was that possible?

whackPanther · 2018-10-12T12:43:41+00:00

OP what state was this? Holy fuck

Belrick_NZ · 2018-10-10T08:33:36+00:00

Leave the country. Seriously Retire to the likes of thailand and stop paying a pussy tax

Your legal system is corrupt and hates men. Flee like jews '33
