I’m several pages behind on reading this but re:
My father says he was friends with a guy who worked his arse off and paid for his wife to go through medical school. At her graduation she handed him divorce papers. My dad: “the only guy I’ve ever heard of getting palimony hahahahahahaha.” Destroyed her in the divorce.
Good luck man. I’m sorry about this. Sucks.

Unfortunately for me my ex is nick named “ The Evil One “. Divorce was early in my children’s age. The EO made sure my relationship suffered even to this day. SUCKS!

Just chatted with a friend about this today.
He said “I cannot be an every other weekend dad, that shite is not happening”
He is fighting for a 50/50 split and she is leveraging the kids for Spousal support.
That shite hit hard.

Look at the bright side! There’s no need to hire a lawyer because that’s what she will probably get anyway.

Good advice in here, especially mikelbr. It sucks, no guilt have to go through grieving process.
Strongly recommend a counselor. The best gift you can give those 3 kids and yourself is a healthy you.
Focus on kids, they didn’t sign up for this, HARD to take high road with ex’s words/action towards you but eat them for them. If anything has to be addressed, confront ex’s unacceptable behavior not the person.
Forgive, which is a process. It frees your heart and mind and your kids will reap the fruits of this. Otherwise it’s- “Unforgiveness is the poison that I drink hoping you will die.”
PRAY!

Worst of all is before she ultimately left you every time you gave her a kiss you were probably tasting some other dude’s smegma.
Stay strong, brother.

It totally sucks, especially if you add kids into the mix. And it definitely brings out the worst in people. It will seem to get worse before it gets better. The best thing you can do is try to hang in there and educate yourself on the process so you don’t get taken for a ride. And for the love of God, don’t date. It gives you a false sense of “moving on” and “being ok.” But usually just ends in a shite show that makes you feel even worse than you did before. (Speaking from experience) Keep your kids out of it as much as you can—no matter how old they are. Don’t bring new “friends” around, either. The kids don’t understand and already may feel like they have to choose sides depending on their age. Don’t bad mouth your ex or text threats/crazy shite—which is quite possibly the hardest part—but she will likely be looking for anything to use against you when you go to mediation/court. Don’t agree to anything without advising your lawyer, especially through text—and be prepared for things to get ugly at some point. Even the seemingly small things could be used against you. Divorce is petty, usually gets ugly, and no one really wins in the end, but it is possible to survive and thrive once it’s over and you take appropriate measures to heal yourself. There’s no time limit, but now that it’s all over, I look at my divorce as a blessing and an opportunity to start over and learn from past mistakes. Find some good books on the topic and stay strong for your kids, even if it feels like you can’t. My little girl is the only reason I kept breathing some days. You can do this, I promise.

Sign up for our family wizard and only communicate through that. it's going to get a hell of lot worse before it gets better. Protect your assets at all costs and fight for as much custody as possible.
