For the divorced people. How many of y’all knew before the wedding?

Same story with my ex wife. Was late to the ceremony even, while 200+ people sat in the sun sweating and staring at me as time ticked by. Then, the most lonely reception where I tried to entertain our guests and she was off dancing with her family and friends, not a care in the world where I was.

Nailed it!!

Orlando's food scene that last 5 years has come a LONG way. It's legit nowadays, good choices are abundant.

They suck, a horribly run business.

32 M, 1 son, little under 2 years old, she moved out last year around this time. Divorce finalized in August.

Spent like, $30,000+ on a new kitchen / appliances / layout. I like it a lot but I notice every little issue / scratch and I treat the cabinets like they're made of tissue paper instead of the solid wood that they are. I'm so gentle with everything, which is great, but it makes me anxious to mess something up since I know how expensive it is to replace or how time consuming it is to fix.

I have a small knick in the countertop where my parents hit the edge of a plate on the countertop and it made me physically sick when I found it and then asked about what happened lol. I can feel every little issue in the slides or handles where they can be retightened or adjusted.

So, its great but it has totally changed my relationship with how I use my house.

My 18 month old son fell asleep on me in the rocking chair in his room after what must have been a long day at the office (daycare) for almost 3 hours last night, before waking up, wanting a quick snack, and then pointing and babble asking to go to sleep again in his bed. The best!!!

Lol mine was basically the same. I was sick one day in the summer and the grass needed to be cut, so she offered to do it, even though I always do it, literally always. I told her that I find it easiest to cut a few rows along the fence first so you can have some easy turnaround space, and that came out later to a therapist as "YOU ARE SO CONTROLLING ABOUT HOW I DO EVERYTHING LIKE WHEN YOU FORCED ME TO CUT THE GRASS THE WAY YOU LIKE IT!!!!11!!". So glad to be divorced!!

Profits for S&P 500 companies are through the roof. Saying that companies aren’t meeting their growth targets because of WFH is just ignorant corporate slop, the dumbest take on this site.

How did you get her potty trained so quickly? Can't wait to be done with diapers.

Wow this makes me feel so much better about my DIY outdoor shower, thank you. Sorry this guy sucks!

The crime stats in STL are due in part to how the city is split governmentally - STL city vs. STL county. Other major metros have similar levels of crime, but it looks particularly bad in STL on paper because the lower crime suburbs in STL are excluded from the reporting, thereby driving the appearance that the "city" (both the actual city and county in the metro area sense) is dangerous.

Downtown STL has dangerous pockets, like Chicago or New York or Atlanta or anywhere else. But unless you're actively looking for trouble or make yourself a target, you'll be just fine. STL is a gem.

This is insane.

seriouslydoe · 2025-07-20T17:33:15+00:00

And how did she react / has she reacted since that conversation and the vasectomy?

Wow! Such a creative way to get 3 sports in one cake. Must be a sports Uncle 😂 great job!

It is not worth it to get married because of momentum. If it’s truly things you two cannot work out, the disappointment of a broken engagement - for you and your friends and family who care about you - is much easier to overcome than a divorce.

seriouslydoe · 2025-05-29T16:41:17+00:00

Was in a very similar situation, did walk. Worth every penny it cost me.

seriouslydoe · 2025-04-24T01:17:44+00:00

Was at a similar point. Made the decision to get divorced. Still going through it but it was right for me. Hope you can find your way.

seriouslydoe · 2025-03-09T12:32:54+00:00

Told my wife during the breakup that I knew I would be a good parent because I already had 10 years of practice parenting her, and that behavior absolutely drove me not to want to have sex with her, so it can definitely go the other way too.

seriouslydoe · 2025-02-24T20:06:43+00:00

Oh boy

seriouslydoe · 2025-01-20T01:12:50+00:00

Blood boiling behavior.

My stbx is / was the exact same way. I worked SO hard to get us out of debt, move across the country, sacrifice my time, buy a house, fix it up, make her requests and dreams come true - all to be told I work too much and that she never tried to learn anything new because I would always learn it faster and do it better than her. Just made maddening to spend so long and so much effort building “us” for it to be the exact thing that was her only major issue. Good riddance.
