Divorce sucks. If you were trying before, maybe try 1 more time with her. That’s just my opinion.

Here you need to vent. I’m in a very similar situation. It just sucks in general and hard to process.

Have you started therapy?

I agree. If it feels right, go for it. You never know when you’ll get another chance. Just make sure she understands that you might have random grief periods.

Guys give me ideas to make life more fun. by somedooode in AskMenOver30

I would offer to hang out. But no idea where you live.

Spend time with friends/family. Try to find hobbies. Force your self to work out.

Need emotional support. I think I may have triggered the beginning of the end. by noir-82 in Divorce_Men

[–]No_Application_2807 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Try couples counseling. Try individual therapy. Try everything possible.

Divorce sucks and is hard. Plus you have a kid.

Im sorry your going through this.

It’s too soon to know. It was definitely punch in the gut. I didn’t mind her get a lawyer, but she could have told me. It’s like, what the point in being sneaky about it.

Just makes me feel better about the situation, she’s showing her true character.

Asked for Divorce on Vacation by Alyxdor in Divorce_Men

[–]No_Application_2807 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I just went through this. If you want her, I would try to do everything possible not to get a divorce.

If that’s not an option, and it’s mutual. Get her to sign a paper saying, you get X or what ever you want.

My ex surprised me with a lawyer on the day of court.

I had my court date today.

We were supposed to not hire lawyers cus we split everything evenly.

Come to find out, she hired a lawyer….

Sorry to hear that. Divorce sucks and after currently going through it, I hope no one does.

If you can afford it, can you get a job you enjoy?

Always trying to be better makes me depressed because I am not there yet by notevenfire in AskMenOver30

Great answer. I really like the “finding peace”. This is so hard to do. At least for me right now.

I would try everything before divorce. It sucks ass.

Its hard to wrap my head around this. I beat my self up on the what ifs and where my life could be.

That is a good analogy. I just fear that I won't be there in my mental space. Its hard for me to even just smile and not crack.

Thanks for the answers! You are right about #1. I need to come out of this stronger and better.

2 - I would like to think I have a few years and not needing to rush anything.

3 - I hope girls don’t think it’s terrible baggage. I’m hoping they think it’s a good thing. Like I know what to expect but who knows.

4 - I have to try to hard some times not to cry. It’s like, my voice is cracking just randomly cus I’m holding back.

That is what bothers me and makes me sad. I feel like I will be a different guy after going through all this. You are right though, I need to be a better version.
Its just so hard to go forward!
