16 years until youngest kid turns 18…. Would be the best for the kids though. I’m a high earner and she’s a stay at home mom so divorce would ruin me financially to say the least.

Be a man and just emotionally detatch. Give back rubs to your work wife and take your 30 minute showers like the rest of us.

Another thing to consider is alimony. The longer you’re married the more and longer you’ll pay.

The first 20 years of marriage is the hardest.

Therapy is cheaper than getting divorced for sure. My wife was a cheerful, happy person when we were dating but now after kids she’s sarcastic, anxiety filled, and depressing to be around. I just don’t see how that’s going to change back. Goal would be to build up to a 10 million net worth by time kids turn 18 so she can just take 5 million and I can go enjoy the rest of my life and still have a big enough nest egg to enjoy a comfortable retirement.



You have a two year old. Life isn’t going to be easy with a two year old. Everyone is tired and cranky all of the time. I have a two year old I know the feeling.


That being said there is no way I’m waiting 16 years in a loveless miserable marriage.

Hopefully she works.


No she does not work nor does she have any marketable skills or education.

She is a narcissist who is surely unaware that the walls are closing in.

They are in La.

This is why I'm okay with being single. Divorce is at an all time high.

She would be getting a lot more than that $5M….plus they can still throw on alimony even after kids are 18

You gonna stay married for 16 years, being miserable, while she racks up years of “out of work” bold strategy cotton

No chance the marriage would last 16 more years. That’s a long fricking time

It would be better for your kids to wait it out. It would be better for your finances, particularly investments/pension, to bail as early as possible and rebuild.

This is why I would always want my wife to work. She contributes to the household finances and won’t be able to leave with half of everything I’ve earned.

But to the OP, I’d try therapy first. Sounds like she is going through some mental health issues.
