Divorce sucks
 

My friend is having a bad day. It's his 50th birthday today, his wife has filed for divorce, they just went through a bankruptcy, and his house was sold out from under him and has until the end of the month to move out.

That's got to suck.

damn women always run away when shit gets bad.

Let's hope he wins the lottery the day after they finalize everything.

damn that sucks. But it's true.. Money is the 2nd most popular cause of divorce....

Marriage is the Leading cause of divorce!

Yea divorce sucks... Mine cost me well over 100K. Fucking hate HATE my xwife.

suicide watch

:thumbsup

On the bright side she gets half of zero.

.

One thing I have learned - stick with it and things will get better. He'll look back at this as hell - but necessary for a better life.

Divorce does NOT suck, there may be unpleasantness along the way, but I highly recommend it. Small price to pay.

Damn she devils always kicking you when you're down

There are people that have been homeless for 10+ years..
Trolls that have lived with their parents 10+ after 18..
There are people worst of..

If only that were true. Lots of guys in jail because they can't find a job. If the judge says he owes her money, he owes whether he has it or not. Totally fucked up. I have a friend who just went through this. Judge told him to borrow money from his family or go to jail for the weekend. He could have fought it, but he'd still have had to to the weekend in jail.

50 years old, divorced, down and out... put him on a plane to either the Philippines or Thailand.

This day and age, your a fucking moron if you don't get a prenup... Unless your spouse makes more money and has more possessions :winkwink:

So many people I know got literally screwed by their spouse, more times its the woman who fucks over the man. I wouldn't even consider getting married without one. Sometimes things don't work out but I'll be damned if I have to give up half my shit I busted my ass for to some bitch

That sucks big time :(

Just let him know it gets better.

A friend of mine who is 44 got divorced 2 years ago. He had been miserable in his marriage for several years and was miserable with the divorce. They didn't do a bankruptcy, but he got stuck with all the debt and a house that he had to shortsell. He was depressed and hating life. Six months later he ends up meeting his old high school girlfriend on Facebook. Back in high school they broke up because her family moved away and he hadn't really seen or spoken to her since. She had recently gotten divorced as well. The two of them met for lunch, the flame was still there and now he is married to her and happier than I can ever remember seeing him

Divorce is not the problem.

MARRIAGE is.

Why marry someone when you already know that soon or late you will DIVORCE?

In this current world its mpossible to stay with the same person for life.

I can never understand why people MARRY when they already know the end.

Period.

People simply don't do a good job of vetting their partners; and, they marry for the wrong reasons. The epidemic of divorce in America is a clear manifestation of the bad judgment so many people have.

And you can say whatever you want about "but people change" and all that shit, but the truth is a tiger can't change his stripes. The other person didn't change -- you just didn't accurately access the person in the first place.

I looked for several qualities before I chose my life partner: she had to be pretty, smart, have healthful habits, make sound judgments, not be a frivolous spender, have a good sense of humor and love to play, react well under pressure and stress and in crisis situations, be attentive to me and my needs.

I did a good job vetting, and we've been together 9 years now, have a 4-year-old, and often still feel like it's a new, fun relationship.

If kids are involved it always sucks

Marriage sucks

Divorce is ok

Hope he will be fine

She married his wallet not him.

He's lucky he doesn't live in this corner of the glorious EU. The regional gov introduced a new "divorce tax" (unofficially known as the "misery tax"). The official explanation is they want to "encourage a warm and social society" and thus discourage people from getting a divorce. Result: if you sell your house so you can divide the money between you and your soon to be ex, you end up paying twice the amount of taxes you normally would when selling property.

One thing that I have learned while dealing with my own divorce .. Never again will I get married to anyone.

here is a huge divorce bumpage for ya :) my man :thumbsup stay cool , no love - no problems

Will you stay on an unhappy marriage just so the kids can have both parents at home ?

he sounds like a future 3rd world POV pornographer :2 cents:

Just tell him, if he thinks this is bad. He should imagine if he was still stuck with her.

So there is hope.

Good story.

I know some people that have been married three or four times. Yet others remain married to one person all of their lives. Not all marriages end in divorce.

People do change - in huge ways. I've been with my wife for twenty years and I look at the changes we've been through, and it's staggering. Both physical and mentally. In our relationship, my wife has become less adventurous while I've become a lot more adventurous. I was always "We shouldn't do this" or "It doesn't sound fun" where as now I'm the who pops the curb and drives through a field to get around traffic just because I can.

He never made that much money to begin with.

But I can see why he married her. She was hot - and still is for her age.

divorce??? hahaha it could have been cancer buddy...

He needs to celebrate with two girls... each half his age.
That will make him see life in a new light.

:thumbsup

why people are getting married at all?

Divorce is expensive. Freedom is priceless.

To make matters worse, the wife's father just died. So if the kids aren't upset enough about mommy and daddy splitting up PLUS having to move out of their house... Now they have to go to a funeral too.

When it rains it pours.

That's what I'm saying. To help cover his moving expenses (deposit on a new rental, etc) he took out $20k from his 401k. I'm trying to talk him into going to Vegas.

I will never get in that shit, if bitch want to be with me, we dont need to make all "legal" and then later she fuck my best friend and take 50% :)

Exactly, he is finally free. its party time!

A-fucking-men.

Looks like he just got a clean slate. No financial obligations, no nagging wife and ya know 50 is the 30 ;)

get real you guys. this guy is 50, probably totally out of shape and broke. the only women he is going to get is late 40 somethings all worn out with multiple kids, unless he can afford to buy prostitutes.

Someone explain why it takes 6 months to get divorced but you can get married in hours.
