| 1 | The Trouble with Wanting Men, response article: Lovelorn feminist in open marriage blames men - John Mac GhlionnIt's interesting that the highest divorce rates are lesbian couples. The lowest, gay men, and heterosexual couples in the middle. ... Interesting. | /r/MensRights | 31/10/25 09:23 AM |
| 5 | I knew what I signed up forWomen are hypergamous by nature. Men have a biological imperative to spread that seed far and wide while women have a biological imperative to secure the highest value male possible. This need to monkey branch accounts for the fact that women file for 80% of divorces. 90% among college educated women. | /r/Divorce_Men | 07/08/25 01:34 PM |
| 3 | What ruined your marriage?Cheating on her part. And love is a myth. | /r/Divorce_Men | 06/08/25 03:23 PM |
| 6 | Struggling today to let go. Could use some words of advice.When you let your wife walk all over you, she is going to lose respect for you and that usually leads to cheating. Sounds like she is gone and even if you got her back, it would only be a matter of time. Just remember, in your next relationship, stand up for yourself. If you change jobs, it should be to advance your career, not because your wife told you to. And I certainly wouldn't be cutting off friends, unless I truly believed there was a need to do so. And when they start acting irrationally… | /r/Divorce_Men | 03/08/25 02:09 AM |

| 2 | She tried to break me. But I’m still standing—stronger.The irony is that while she was attempting to get me fired from the military for imaginary offenses, I refrained from reporting her affair with a contractor. (My Ex was a GS15 at the time. ) I wanted her to be able to pay child support. However, if I had turned her in, she very likely would have been fired as there may have been a serious conflict of interest. So while I was protecting her income, she was going after mine, even though it would have hurt our kids tremendously. | /r/Divorce_Men | 01/06/25 11:40 AM |
| 1 | Moving out with kid’sTake the kids. Get the deal in writing. That will give you proof she doesn't want the kids and doesn't want to support them. Child support is always modifiable, so you can seek it in a year, after you have firmly established yourself as the sole caregiver. | /r/Divorce_Men | 30/05/25 10:00 AM |
| 14 | She tried to break me. But I’m still standing—stronger.Just be glad she didn't make false allegations about you to law enforcement and your employer. My wife, at the time, became so enraged that I wouldn't stop the divorce after catching her in a year+ long affair, that she reported me to my chain of command for having "unreported foreign contact" after I had lunch with my former Afghan interpreter when he legally immigrated to the United States. When they laughed at her, she reported me for not supporting my dependents even though my entire paychec… | /r/Divorce_Men | 29/05/25 10:52 AM |

| 2 | Is Alimony permanent?That sounds like part of your property division. While it may influence the amount of alimony, technically alimony is a separate thing. They can get a portion of your retirement and alimony sometimes. | /r/Divorce_Men | 25/04/25 12:35 PM |
| 4 | Is Alimony permanent?Are you paying alimony, and it just happens to equal 32% of your military pension, or did she get 32% of your pension as part of the property division? | /r/Divorce_Men | 24/04/25 10:32 AM |

| 16 | Why are women always so quick to advocate divorce?Women are hypergamous by nature. That's not meant to be critical. It is just human nature. Women have a biological drive to secure the best "protector and provider" possible. The day that they think they have something better lined up, you're history. The fact that the family law courts will give her 50% and sometimes much more only gives her more incentive to monkey branch. | /r/Divorce_Men | 03/04/25 09:20 AM |

| 2 | What is your view on the reasons for modern divorce?It's because women are hypergamous by nature. A woman getting divorced in her 60s, deep down believes she can do better. | /r/Divorce_Men | 09/03/25 08:40 AM |
| 5 | Do I visit my dying Ex-wife?Is she asking to see you? If you divorced on good terms, more or less, and she wants a visit, then sure. But if your divorce was not amicable, your visit may cause unnecessary anguish. | /r/Divorce_Men | 05/03/25 05:59 PM |
| 11 | After 20 years she blindsides me with “i dont want to be married anymore”She's almost certainly cheating. Down deep women want a protector and provider. If they earn more than a man, they eventually stop seeing him in that role and will start looking for someone else. Your illness and possible loss of income has probably influenced her. Look for to just coincidently start dating a Professor at her college a few months after you split. Odds are she's already involved with this guy. Lawyer up, Fight for full custody.

| 4 | I begged and I regret doing it!You definitely should regret it. First of all, if reconciliation is your goal, begging makes that less likely because it makes a woman lose respect for you and see you as weak. Women aren't attracted to weak men because instinctively, they don't see weak men as protectors and providers. Begging causes you to lose self- respect, and women will not respect a man that doesn't respect himself. | /r/Divorce_Men | 10/02/25 01:15 PM |

At the end of the day, I was still employed on the day she was fired. I was still free on the days her mug shots were published and she gets supervised visitation at my sole discretion. | /r/Divorce_Men | 07/02/25 07:28 AM |

| 1 | Is she entitled to back child support?Sounds like only back to date of petition. | /r/Divorce_Men | 31/01/25 01:59 PM |
| 1 | Is she entitled to back child support?The State didn't get a cut in my case. | /r/Divorce_Men | 31/01/25 01:58 PM |
| 3 | Is she entitled to back child support?In my state, back child support only goes back to the date that the receiving parent filed a child support case with the court. So, even if you have been separated for two years, and she only filed a child support petition three months ago, the back pay would only extend for 3 months. I'm not saying any other state is the same. And you should definitely consult a family law attorney in your jurisdiction. Some things are too important to trust to Reddit | /r/Divorce_Men | 31/01/25 01:57 PM |
| 14 | Should I tell my ex-wife’s family the truth about why we separated?Sadly, you played right into her hands. First of all, she was almost certainly already cheating. "Nothing happened until right after we separated." Is the second most used cliché in the cheaters handbook. Right behind "He's just a friend." Not disclosing her affair has allowed her to shape a narrative to explain the split so that you are the villain in the story. Many people won't believe you because you've waited so long to come forward, but some will, so expose the cheater. Also, if the AP has… | /r/Divorce_Men | 28/01/25 10:36 AM |

Just remember, everyt ime you meet with this friend, you may be giving your wife ammunition. If you must meet with her, take a 3rd party witness. | /r/Divorce_Men | 13/01/25 09:18 AM |
| 2 | For those who got cheated on, do you blame the AP?In most cases, only the spouse betrayed you, but the AP also intentionally caused an innocent person pain, destroyed a family, traumatized children for life etc. Blame is not something that has to be divided. Two people can both be 100% to blame. | /r/Divorce_Men | 12/01/25 11:18 AM |

| 12 | Did you ever reconcile after the divorce?She is your Ex for a reason. She probably thought the grass was greener, but after riding the carousel for a while, she's not able to lock down a quality guy, then she sees you moving on, and she panics. If you take her back, you will just be doing this all over within a year or two. | /r/Divorce_Men | 11/01/25 03:09 PM |
| 3 | I loved my wife and the life we had, I’m doubtful I’ll find another woman like her.I think you might be confusing "better" with "better looking". A cheater that treats you like crap isn't better than any woman that doesn't do those things. | /r/Divorce_Men | 09/01/25 09:52 PM |

| 4 | How did you tell your wife you want a divorce?Do not try to buy her cooperation with a divorce settlement that's slightly in her favor It will not work and it will cost you money. Talk to your lawyer and offer her what she would get in court not anymore | /r/Divorce_Men | 18/12/24 01:14 PM |
| 6 | Caught wife cheating, she claims she’s sorry and doesn’t want a divorce.It is better for children to be from a broken home than in one. Don't confuse someone being sorry that they got caught and being remorseful for what they did. Ultimately you have to make your own decision but in my case I gave her a second chance and then a third chance and then a fourth chance until finally I wised up | /r/Divorce_Men | 04/12/24 02:58 PM |

| 3 | Sex while separated, do *you* consider it cheating?Often the separation is just to cover up cheating. I think if both parties agree that you can both see other people, then it's clearly not cheating. I also think if one party is obstructing. the divorce process so that it takes years, then all bets are off. But it is also important to look at what state law says. In my state, for example, adultery is adultery. It does not matter if the parties are separated. In states that have fault grounds for divorce. This can cause problems. | /r/Divorce_Men | 09/11/23 11:59 PM |

Whether or not she can withdraw the lawsuit unilaterally after a certain stage will depend on the laws and court procedural rules wherever you are. That's why you need to talk to a local attorney.
