Its concerning to me that so many dudes have had their accounts wiped out by their wives.

Do y'all not control the finances in a way that you are always in the know?

Don't let it deter you too much

Yes, there are some genuinely sad stories

But 75% of the blindsided stories on this site over the years involve some oil baw who met his twice divorced love-of-life at a Jason Aldean concert and promptly bought her fake boobs getting totally blindsided that the weeknight clubbing with divorcee friends she was doing led to some cheating with jody

Didn't realize she was YOUR wife. Had I known, I wouldn’t have sent around all the pictures.

The truth is you probably didn't do anything wrong, but they weren't happy and couldn't see themselves ever being happy with you again. There wasn't anything you could change about the situation that would have made things better. This is where the saying, "We grew apart" comes in. Sometimes, people just aren't in love anymore.

Two comments regarding this. Comment one, there's only one person who is responsible for your happiness and it's the person that you see in the mirror. Comment two, love is a choice, wake up every day choosing to love your spouse.

“Happily married” threads don’t exactly get the same traction as divorce threads. People like to observe trainwrecks, after all.

The thing about marriage is that it’s risky and hard, just like having kids, and so many other things that are worth doing anyway.
If you really would rather fly solo your whole life, go for it. That may truly be what you are called to do. But I still believe most of us would rather fall in love and then work at making it stick. Have a partner in life, make children, make dinner, have big holiday get togethers, have grandkids, etc etc


Mostly I know this is just pissing in the wind, trying to convince men that marriage is worth the risk. Until women stop putting out before marriage and then being faithful, things will just deteriorate more and more.

I thought we were in a foxhole together fighting the good fight with 2 kids under 3. She on the other hand was getting cozy with some dude she told me not to worry about at work and I think the idea of being a part time mom was less overwhelming... So now she is married to the guy I wasn't supposed to worry about and I'm married to someone that doesn't secretly hate my guts.


One of the golden rules I have learned in my life is if a woman tells you not worry about a guy, you should really, really fricking worry.

Came home early on my 40th birthday (to get ready for my birthday party with all of my friends) and checked the mail. Found a letter from the bank that showed the new account she had opened about a week earlier. So, she had started the background work to leave, but hadn't started the movement yet.

I was blindsided. Came home and found a note on the door "tired of living for everyone else, want to live for me". Opened the door to an empty house and bank account. Told that story on here a few times.


This is why I don’t share my bank account. She has hers. I have mine. She has one of my credit cards to use anytime she likes. I keep this one with a low limit of 10k. She wouldn’t be able to ruin me that bad. I pay for all of the bills. She makes her own money. I get her whatever she likes. She’s not going to have access to my cash however.

Holy shite, baw. That’s one hell of a story.

I worked with a baw whose wife was a SAHM and they allowed his neerdowell brother to stay for a few months. Then the exact same story as yours played out. fricking crazy, man. Glad you’re on the other side of that.

We were having issues but seemed to be normal stuff for young married couple with a 3 year old.

I was blindsided when I found the issues were bc she was cheating on me.

I found out, called her and told her she can come home and we can try to work this out or she can just stay at the new guys house forever.

She stayed, we divorced, she married him and now they are divorced

Maybe I'm too trusting, but I've never once "worried" about my wife and another man, and we've been married 11 years

Long story short.
We had some issues
We didn't have sex in a month
She ended up pregnant

I left everything in the house, won custody of my kid, she ended up a crack whore who was at one time banging some BBC in New Orleans for money

Haven't seen her in years
