they all are. Some are self restrained, but once that wears thin... Boom goes the dynamite.

Just hope they have an understanding of you and what you will do.

Sorry bro...but really good luck.

I waited about 5 years. Mainly because she cleaned me out and devastated me emotionally and financially. Yep, she was a cheating whore and I had no clue...busting my arse 60+ hours a week to provide the never ending list of shite she wanted. New house, new car, new furniture...still always wanting more.

Luckily the field I was in was booming...telecommunications in the mid 80's thru late 90's. My boss knew my situation and allowed me to work all the OT I could stand. After YEARS of working 70+ hour weeks I dug myself out of the financial pit she threw me into. She now lives in a fricking trailer, hates her hubby and barely lives paycheck to paycheck. I'm still in our house...it's paid for now and I have zero debt. This bitch actually had the nerve to ask me for money a few years back!

Met an awesome lady and we dated 6 years. Talking marriage and looking at houses...all of a sudden like flipping a light switch...it's over in her mind. I've come to the conclusion bitches are crazy and you never know when they'll decide to flip that switch. So I got a dog. And I wanted to add that this is why I don't believe in God...because it's not that hard to make the perfect woman. Put a dog's brain into a woman and BAM...perfection. Instead He gives us a sociopathic a-hole to be our mate in life???

So is it true what they say about nurses?
That they have licences?

Yes.

And that they CAN be batshit crazy?

Roger on that as well.

Detectives tell us that a crime needs both motive and opportunity.

Opportunity?
Regular work hours removed from a traditional office setting.

Motive?
Around docs and other medical professionals who make good money and share their general craft.

Also, for many nurses there's the wildcard of being around death or suffering regularly which is not a natural normal lifestyle. Humans are not supposed to be around death all of the time and this can manifest itself in some interesting behaviors.

Damn, shite like this is why I don't want to get married. I plan on marrying my gf. But I also will help pay for her to finish becoming a nurse practitioner, because rt now it's hard on her to be in grad school and work full time as a nurse. She has already had to push it back 2 years because she can only do school part time.




I posted my experience, but did follow it up with a happy 2nd marriage for 18 years now. Marriage is great, but it is something to be taken seriously, and a lot of people don't.

I waited 12 years before I got married again. I waited 3-4 years before I even got in a semi serious relationship.

What happened?
Too young? Married to quick? Or blinded by the pussy?



We met our Sophomore year in college. We dated for 4 years before getting married. We had a great marriage, until she started abusing prescription drugs 5 years ago. We had the typical young married couple struggles: financial, having small children, etc. Her mother is a pill head and taught her daughter that's how you deal with stress. I had no idea what was really going on, since I didn't grow up around that stuff. By the time I figured out what was going on, she was deep into her addiction. She got sober, but I couldn't deal with the damage that she had done to me and our boys, so I left.

I was in the same boat. I worked 7 days a week 12 hrs a day for 152 days straight and then 5 days a week the rest of the year for 3 years while my ex wife worked part time while she finished her nursing degree.


I'm not ever doing that for me, much less anyone else in my lifetime. That is the definition of insanity.

It was several drugs: ambien, pain pills, lots of narcotics. Idk if she was doing illegal stuff. The night everything came to a head and she overdosed, the doctor in the ICU told me she had 9 different things in her system. He wouldn't tell me what they were though, and she didn't agree to let me see her records.

I'm divorced too and have a lot of anger and resentment towards my ex-wife, but the level of misogyny in this thread is a little troubling. I don't hate women because my ex-wife was a bad person who didn't deserve what I gave her. I don't think all women are going to treat me like that.

Seems like guys always spend very little time in a relationship before getting remarried... Why is that? Do y'all feel the need to be validated by having someone else be a part of your life? Can you not stand by yourself as a man without force feeding a relationship down your throat??


PSA: you DO NOT have to be in a relationship to be happy... Often times, striving too hard for this will only result in failure and heartbreak

There are very few people in this thread who said they jumped quickly into relationships.

When you love someone, you fight for them. I fought for a couple of years for my wife and my children. I got tired of fighting alone.

My message was meant in general, not just on this board.. Pretty sure I saw someone say he was single for 6 months...


FWIW, I consider anything under 2-3 years after a divorce too soon to get remarried but that is only my opinion


ETA: I guess what I meant is that I see it all too often IRL, people get out of marriages and start dating immediately and get engaged in a few months... I'm always like, well frick, you can't even be right by yourself, how do you expect to have a healthy relationship with someone else?

I agree. I did everything I could think of doing, that wouldn't sacrifice my dignity or self-respect, to reconcile with my ex-wife. Ultimately, I realized that I was putting in the effort to try to make things work, but she wasn't. So I told her it was over.
