Like men don't "fall out of love" or run around or think the grass is greener somewhere else, of course, they do. It is not just women that want out of marriages. Also, property is divided that was accumulated during the marriage..which seems fair to me.

Wouldn't those men file for divorce? No, it's generally women that do that.

Men do file for divorce every day. Why would you believe it is just men? I know men that have walked in the house one day and said it is over. The reason was usually that they had a woman on the side. The wife was blindsided, so don't tell me men don't file for divorce.

I submit that women file more often than men do. Probably somewhere in the area of 90% of divorces, it is the woman filing.

Also, note that in the specific cases I addressed there was no "fault". The other person didn't commit infidelity or abuse, the person filing just got bored.

Not everything has to come down to "blaming" one or the other gender.

smel, that must be one wealthy "lady" he's found. Nearly all men would rather stick their pecker in a meat grinder than file for divorce - the financial repercussions are that bad. In my opinion, this is not the reason for many divorces initiated by men. Usually they are stringing along some romantic type with her head in the clouds, for many years. Then they dump her. Isn't that the typical situation for most mistresses.

No. Men file for divorce only when its so bad they cannot take it anymore or they stand to cash in because they married a wealthy woman. For the rest, a normal life usually ends for many years. These Viagra ads are targeted at the slow learners who are finally out of financial hell and want to get screwed again.

No-fault divorce simply means that no reason is given in the records. It doesn't mean that nobody did anything wrong--that's silly.

Determining who did something "wrong" is mainly a matter of he said, she said. Who do you believe?

The real reasons often tend to make a woman look bad, so she has every incentive to magnify every fault to make her ex look bad. Alternatively, she can say nothing and let the rumor mills havetheir say.

I know a woman who cheated on her husband. This broke up the marriage and everyone was saying "well, he must have done something."

More than 10 years later, she had gone through several younger lovers and he had taken the kids, moved away and remarried.

Over a few bottles of wine one evening, she spilled it out. "I was a f*****g moron. It was nothing that he did. I was just bored."

That's the problem with good decent men. I hope his next wife appreciated him more.

Sometimes, no one did do anything wrong though. People fall out of love--or their goals change and their partner doesn't share those goals.

I don't want to get into it here, because these Vultures take any little shred of truth and pervert it. But No Fault Divorce is a problem in this country. Both men and women are a victim of it.
