You lucked out. I literally lost everything I owned except for my car and a bag of clothes. One of my lawyers put it to me like this. "With this woman, your probably got out cheaper this way rather than having to be with her the rest of your life. " He was right.

Your life begins today. Hit the gym, start working and saving toward your dreams.

Disregard females. Acquire currency.

And remember. Women are a meme.

Marque01 · 2017-03-22T16:17:10+00:00

Don't do it again :)

I'm a few weeks ahead of you. Cut out media, let your mind catch up for a bit. Find what makes you feel strong, put framed pictures of it around your home. Work to build something. I'm here if you need someone

That was barely a scratch, you lucky dog.

My brother recently got divorced. Wife initiated it (you don't say??), and they have 1 child.

Actually, he lawyered up asap with my Dad's former attorney (of all things), which is known for being fairly cutthroat and going out of his way for a good settlement, etc.

Either way, it was a 50/50 split, and both attorneys and judge said it was one of the 3 peaceful/least drama related divorces they had seen in the last 30 years.

I personally am thankful I never got into that mess.

I called off my wedding ten days before the event.

She backed up a truck and took nearly everything but my clothes while I was at work.

I didn't even care. i was a student just past graduation, what little I had was pretty old and worn out. Couple thousand dollars. Better to get robbed at that point than years later down the road.

Learn from your mistake. The next time you find one and think she is the "one". Remember, AWALT.

strudel- · 2017-03-22T17:50:19+00:00

No kids and I take it no house either? You got off lucky.

If it's any comfort, she'll likely regret this deep down inside sometime in the future as she grows old, fat, frustrated and entirely devoid of attention

Edit: Lol, people are downvoting this. I guess it must hit home with old, fat frustrated bitches browsing this sub

'tis but a scratch! Stick with it. Don't give them money, don't let them move it, save, save, save and enjoy the peace and quiet.

Jonlife · 2017-03-22T21:48:48+00:00

LOLOLOL, I'm dying hearing these stories. Glad to see more and more men coming out and sharing their stories. Guys, take heed. Everyone of these guys who is coming on here to share what happened to them....they all had that "this will never happen to me, I'm smarter than these other guys...." mentality. Nope. It will happen. Avoid women. At all costs, because it will cost you.

Cuck-WTF · 2017-03-23T00:16:10+00:00

First day off the plantation.

Never get tired of hearing this.

Major_Motoko · 2017-03-22T17:12:08+00:00

Gratz bro

Mac290 · 2017-03-22T20:01:26+00:00

Congrats, but watch out. They will start circling like vultures now.

Retromind · 2017-03-22T20:24:17+00:00

Congratulations, enjoy your freedom.

NoThirst · 2017-03-23T01:41:17+00:00

I learned the reality of life much later than you amigo. My hypergamistic cupcake forced the sale of everything I owned, including a house I built and lost half of a 30 year pension. Wish my eyes had been opened at your age.

gods_bones · 2017-03-22T17:11:54+00:00

What about alimony?

HoffAmazing · 2017-03-22T17:59:41+00:00

GGWP.

honorocagan · 2017-03-23T01:23:24+00:00

I need reminders of this, so thank you.

29, and have no desire to get married. But I would like a little boy running around some day.

Instead, I'll focus on a dog.

Who knows, maybe I can bachelor adopt down the line..

KenshinX90 · 2017-03-22T17:13:00+00:00

You accomplished something spot of guys dont

fezha · 2017-03-22T19:01:35+00:00

Why did you all divorce?

Be-Positive · 2017-03-23T01:03:15+00:00

You are free like Genie https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=XRb_akgDUes

Now the good life begins. Your days of chains and cotton are over.

Getting divorced is like getting fired from a job. But is it a failure? What if your next job pays more and you're happier, then getting fired was the best thing for you.

I got through my divorce by treating life as a rpg. After divorce I was level 1. In my case I had to go right back to basics. From living in a house to a rental apartment. Back at the start I didn't even have a bed, I was literally sleeping on a matress on the floor.

Within 2 years, I now have a kick ass apartment, much better paying job, a whole lot of new found life. Things are very good.

Not ruling out the possibility of another long term relationship, but I'm highly selective and can spot red flags easier and I'm not desperate for one either. If it happens it happens, otherwise I love being in control of my life.

decenticrate · 2017-03-23T07:01:44+00:00

Congrats.

Bravo. You dodged a bullet.

A_Spoiled_Milks · 2017-03-23T01:19:21+00:00

Man my entire high school life my mom always used to ask why I never brought a girl home to my house, I'm in college right now, having one night stands and loving life but I always remember high school and I've come to two conclusions: 1. Relationships are the fastest way to drain your hard earned money 2. (In the most none disrespectful way) women are like stray cats, if you feed them or bring them to you're house, they always stick around as if it's theirs. I'm 19, and I know I have tons of years to experience but one thing I know for sure, life is what you make it, congrats on getting out of something you didn't want anymore.

tallwheel · 2017-03-23T02:24:46+00:00

Beautiful! Enjoy your freedom. Do whatever the fuck you want! You are your own man now.

washingtonpanther · 2017-03-23T04:15:25+00:00

Sorry you got trapped, but I'm glad you found your way free.
