No. I'm pretty sure he's the dude who got drunk and missed a wedding years ago, then felt guilty and took drastic steps to be better. His wife held that over his head, but he eventually found out that it was because she was cheating on him.

I think this is the guy.


Oh f that bitch

One of my very good friends, who passed away from cancer at the age of 41, used to tell me something like this (quoted).

He said there's nothing like pulling into the driveway of the house that he built with his ex-wife, and she comes outside to grab their son from his vehicle ... while her new husband is standing in the doorway, living in the house that he built, and waving goodbye.

He’s not saying to go move in with them.

They are only a piece of the puzzle and getting yourself through the day.

Set up routines in your day/week to help yourself make it through this tough time.

Pick one morning out of the week to go have coffee with them on a weekly basis

They will be more understanding than you think. When my brother's wife left him, he came over all the time. Which was nice because she didn't let him see us. My kids thought it was great ... then he started spending the night, too. But it was fine, and luckily it stopped about 6-9 months after.

Women are hateful creatures that look to not only separate or divorce, but to completely ruin a guy when they’re done with him.

Take the kids out of the equation for a minute ...

Unless there is physical, verbal, sexual, or drug abuse, adultery, or complete disrespect, I don't believe in separation or divorce. I believe two people who committed to one another when things were great also committed to one another when things aren't so great. Unfortunately, we live in a throwaway society and marriage is no different. Vows today, for many, aren't worth the paper they are written on.

It's much easier to work on a relationship with the other spouse still in the house than outside of the house.

But no matter what I believe, she believed something different or was advised differently, which in the end, it was still her decision. I don't agree with it, and I probably will never understand it. But I do my best to accept it because that's really the only choice I have to keep my peace.

Any chance your friends and family had concerns about her that you overlooked during the honeymoon phase? Always therapeutic to share a beer with them and get that validation that there was always something off with her.

You’ll have to find a way to forgive her, and yourself. At the end of the day, it’s for you, and no one else. Time helps, but you will have moments of sadness. Keep pushing forward. Why? Because you must. You can’t go back and undo anything that has been done, but you can change today and put yourself in a better position for tomorrow.

Excellent advice Will




Many weeks, months, and years of therapy, along with plenty of books, and podcasts.

It's not easy - it never will be. But my peace is more important than driving myself crazy trying to understand why something happened the way that it did.

I have tried my best (and continue to try) to let it go.

Fun fact.

Women leave men 80 % of the time. If they're college educated, it's 90 %. One of the number one predictors of divorce is actually if the woman out earns the man.

I'll help you now. And this is not me being insensitive. It doesn't matter what you feel.

She has just as much say in this as you do. 50 % in a marriage will never equal 100 %. Both have to be willing to work through conflict and resolution, or it will never work.

Your wanting or willingness to work through plays a part, but it's not enough. It never will be. She has to join you. Maybe in time, she will. But right now, that's not your reality.

Always stay in your reality.

So the beotch walks in one day and says I don't love you anymore?

Don't give her a divorce, contest everything, make her suffer . That's cold assed hurtful shite that she did. Make her sign a quit claim to the house, but refuse to refinance into your name only.....then walk away and stick her with half the bill
