A prenup isn’t going to keep your ex from getting half the assets earned during marriage (in a community property state).

I’m not opposed to prenups. But it seems smarter to just marry someone with a similar earning potential.

In that 35-40 range, they want to live the Sex and the City lifestyle while they still have market value.

I guess I am the exception but I really only have a few friends that have gotten divorced. Almost all of them involved infidelity but that was more of a symptom than a cause.

I do know a few couples that shoudl get divorced. everyone knows they should get divorced except them.

I think going forward the most successful couples will be those who married in their late 20s/30s and had enough time out in the world to realize dating can suck.



As someone that was married and divorced by 26, I completely agree. Folks aren't content living in their little bubble their whole lives anymore because they see it's a big world out there and they feel like they're missing out.

They gotta go out there, realize that it actually sucks a lot of the time, is nothing like it looks on social media, and then learn to appreciate what life actually offers.

my parents were both miserable in their marriage through most of my childhood. They stayed together for the children, but everyone knew they were miserable. I prayed for a divorce for years as the house was just a terrible place to live with two people fighting non stop.

this... they're probably tired of each other and just don't care enough to keep showing love to their spouse. the women probably aren't telling their man what they need and they expect him to automatically know for some reason.

instead of coming to the husband and trying to fix the situation, they've already made up their minds that it's quittin' time and checked out, cause coming back and doing the hard work would be too much work and they are unsure of the payoff. it would also require getting over themselves, a trait far too few american women these days have.

Maybe not on the husband's part, but I guarantee you all three chicks are seeing or at least talking to some other dude on the side.

But if there no real issue, I'm sure they just sit and bitch about their husbands all day and are dreaming of the single life they can all live together now!



frickin Social Media/Messaging apps make this all too easy now.

You can have 18 bitches on a group message/chat cackling all fricking day about their men. And in numbers, comes solidarity and confidence. 3 bitches pull the trigger but I guarantee you 15 other bitches are supporting them 24/7.
Goes something like this ALLL frickING DAY:

Random Cacklin arse Hen Group Chat:

I gotchu gurrrl. Leave HIM TODAY!

I'll help you with Ayeden and Caitlynn's ball practice and carpool.

Dump that loser.

My cousin's sister is the best Family lawyer in town GURLLLL

You can do better GURLLL.

GURLL POWER. [insert 48 emojis]

MISS INDEPENDENT.

YAS QUEEEN!

GET THAT ALIMONY, GURRRRLLL.

Ghawd....

but seriously, i'm sure a day will come when their kids are struggling and hopefully they'll realize their failure at the most important job in the world, parenting.

lol, wat?

Emotional abuse can be much more damaging than physical abuse.

Living in a house where there's constant tension, anger, criticism, threats, walking on eggshells and things being smashed is absolutely toxic and extremely damaging for children.

Chances are they figured out how much attention a decent looking woman can pull on dating sites in their mid-30s.

Everyone throws a message at the approachable girls. Few throw a message at the hottie who looks to be out of their league.


I’m guessing an uglier friend of hers did this and had success so they are all now doing it.

22.

And we were relocating soon, societal norms, thinking we were somehow different, and youthful stupidity. Luckily no house or kids came from it, so it was as easy of a split as divorce can possibly be. Still completely sucked arse though.
