blame their ex wife without ever looking in the mirror
Thankfully still married, but I came pretty close to being that person. Substance abuse will eventually destroy a marriage and family.

I get it brother. Marriage isn't easy. Eventually you just become an old fart and too tired for the combativeness

Also, seems like between $200k and $600k there’s a good window for being comfortable and secure without getting too mind fricked

My youngest was only 8 when we divorced (she cheated) and I worried myself sick that he would take it really hard. It was weird at first but my kids are awesome and it didn’t take long for them to realize mom’s a dumbass. I never talked bad about her or tried to influence them in anyway, they are smart kids and they figured out on their own who they could count on and they chose to be with me the vast majority of the time.

I filed.
She had health issues that she absolutely refused to do anything about.
Wouldn't even take meds that would help prevent serious issues.
I got out rather than wait around for the inevitable.
The inevitable happened a few years later.

Who filed for the divorce ?
Women initiate 70+ percent of divorce. And that number is climbing.

I did.
Her business failed and she drained all our savings to try to keep it afloat. While I was working two jobs to keep the lights on. I’d have to get the kids, cook, clean and basically do everything around the house. But it was never good enough. When I found out she wasn’t actually working during the day but sitting around the house watching movies, shopping or sleeping until noon I was done. Grabbed the boys and never looked back. Best day of my life.

1 - 9 miserable fricking years.
2- my attorney
3- because I instructed him to do so. She was moving out. Said she was unhappy. Translated she was cheating on me with some other guy. My suspicions were later proven true.
I didn’t really give a shite about the marriage. She had put the kids in danger due to her alcoholism and driving. The cheating was just the icing on the cake. I filed merely to protect my kids and get custody of them which I did.
That was a long arse time ago. 16 years. Been re-married for 15 years - no children between us. All grown now.

Those who divorced with young children do you have any advice? I’m about to go through one now. Married 9 years, together for 16 years total. Wife dropped it on me right before the holidays. 6 year old son.
Wife dropped it on me about 5 minutes after she told me she was pregnant
It’s tough, but I’m lucky my parents live 15 minutes from my house. Being a single dad with a baby daughter is challenging, but they’ve helped out a bunch.

1) 21 years
2) I filed. Best decision ever. My attorney shared with me that 90% of the time the woman files. There is a psychological impact when you file. She still resents it to this day.
3) How many DUI’s did I sign up for?

She liked to have a lot of sex…just not with me
That was 45 years ago, so I probably wouldn’t recognize her if I saw her today.

joint filing (she left tho)
we met in college, had two kids, never fought, but both lost romantic interest in each other, so we were just coparenting, and decided that was not healthy for either of us. We still get along, both have found new partners, split the kids 50/50 and are helpful with each other's schedule. So it turned out well, but I realise that's not the normal. Never got any lawyers involved, split all our stuff like mature people.

It cost me 800 bucks, no child support or alimony, and I have custody of my kids. I just had to wait out until she had nothing.
How did you manage that? She didnt want the kids?
