Everyone has heard my story til they're sick of it I think. He came out gay after a 23 year marriage and we have 2 teenage daughters and one of them is gay too. It was a shock to everyone b/c no one suspected.

The H and I both watched my best friend's brutal divorce. It was outrageous and totally ridiculous. My friend estimates it cost her 250K to get rid of her H. He fought her on everything possible.

Strange thing, they both lost a ton of assets and it was only the lawyers who made out like bandits. We looked and learned...a lot. We did our own property split and handled it all ourselves. We agreed we never wanted to go through anything like what had happened to our friends.

I don't have a good story. The story is my ex-wife abandoned me and the marriage. There was no reason such as abuse, adultery, or addiction to justify it. She just bailed and I was crushed. 2 years later now and well, I'm still not recovered from it.

I know this girl who was crazy. Not even 30 and twice divorced from two very nice young men who were perfectly fine (educated, good looking, nice demeanor... whereas she was kind of mannish looking and really unstable) ... the problem is that she couldn't settle down and stop looking. But she wanted to validate herself by marriage. Doesn't quite work out that way! After her first divorce she badly wanted to marry again to save face, but still couldn't keep her legs closed. She would make up these stories about domestic violence but everyone found out none of that was true... esp after her second divorce she lost all credibility.

I left him. Now we're on good terms. What happened in-between was a roller-coaster.
Same here... minus the "now we're on good terms' part.

He pretty much loathes me, blames me for the whole breakup of our marriage. He was miserable to live with... I'll leave it at that.

Miserable.
