My intention is not to defame my lovely ex wife. After 26 years of marriage I realized that it was an endless loop of negativity. So I went to the courthouse and filed for divorce. After the divorce I blocked her on my phone. My girlfriend is a near perfect 10 Venezuelan and I go to Costa Rica almost every month. 2 of my 3 kids love me and the other is Team Mom but I pray. My relationship with every other person has become closer. I recently went to Dubai and Thailand. I have money in the bank. And there is nobody to control , coerce, shame or guilt me. It’s beautiful. The day she left I felt 100% relief. She is a fine person in her own right but it was just time . Do I need work ? Hell fricking yes - those 26 years conditioned me in negative ways I never knew. But Life belongs to you . Live it.

I at some point you truly loved her, I don't know that you ever completely disentangle yourself emotionally.

NOt for me anyway.

I'm remarried, and happier, and the ex and I are still friendly towards each other. And I can look back and see the mistakes that both of us made in the marriage. It's cliche' but in a lot of ways true, the first marriage is a practice run.

I try to be thankful for the good times we had, and the lessons I learned, and apply them to my second marriage.

But I will always look back with a bit of sadness at those two kids that met in college, fell in love, and became a family, then over time saw it go wrong.

There's history there that just doesn't go away.

But you have to put it all in perspective, weigh the good and the bad, and make your decision. Then don't be a pussy and waffle on it. Stick by your decisions and move on with life.

Tips on how you finally took the plunge.


Two months after I had a stroke she told me she "couldn't do this anymore." Enraged I told her to gtfo, we tried to reconcile but I realized it was over and I would be better off without her miserable arse. "It's time to move on," Nick Saban.

Got a whole bunch of dudes in here offering lots of advice. The crux of man is that we see a problem and look at ways to fix it.

The sooner you understand that you can literally do NOTHING to fix this situation the better off you will be. There isn't a damn thing you can do or say that will improve the situation. In fact, you trying will make it worse.

There are 2 paths, do you want to try to make it work or are you 100% done. Either path you choose you can only do one thing, focus on yourself and the kids. Everything else is a waste of time, effort, and money.

Oh how I would love to reply here but I can't.

Best advice I can give you: DON'T LEAVE YOUR HOME. Make her leave.

How did things finally get to the point of separation and divorce? Was there a thing or a moment?

If you are dealing with stress by drinking it may be time to quit drinking yourself.

I don't dispute your belief that your wife has a drinking and temper problem but in court you won't appear any different if you drink to get drunk (or cope with stress).

If you quit drinking your life will probably improve. And your marriage or divorce will also improve.

Oof. Hungover and sore from sleeping in a car is a shitty way to start a Friday.

Good luck.

I didn't "take the plunge". Like 90% of couples where both are college educated, she was the one who "took the plunge" and broke it off.

Your kids are grown. Do whatever the f&%k you want.

I was with one for three years that was bipolar and didn't think she needed help. You don't fix it and it just runs you down.
