Divorce Sucks

[stoiccactus]

Just venting for a second but .. Don't ever get married. Getting divorced is such a humiliating mess. Lawyers all going through all your stuff. Ex-spouse bad mouthing you to the world. Businesses getting split up and sifted through. Pain for your poor kids. Starting everything back from scratch while the world looks at you like a failure. All your relationships with friends and family get strained as people take sides. This sucks!

I'm sorry you're going through all that. People shouldn't bad mouth each other after a relationship ends.

I was married to someone who, very clearly now, has narcissistic personality disorder. I didn't see it for years and years and the abuse has gone right to my head.

So sorry it didn't work out. I hope you will be ok. I will never be getting married. Personal decision a long time ago.

sorry youre going through this. ive been trying to get a divorce from my husband for a few years now but he "wont let me" (dont tell him that though "she could have left whenever she wanted", physically but mentally and emotionally youre being a manipulative dick with your words and actions). im really really hopeful ill be out in the next couple months

I agree. I hope it was fun while it lasted and not a narcissist making it extra hell for you.

It's none of my business, but I don't think S is the best way to divorce. If he's violent, self defence can go very far legally. I loved movies of women making a run for it. Especially when the guy gets hurt when he finds her. But mine lost interest when I stopped being docile. If he won't let you, do it anyway.

Few people find their soulmate. Most end.up like you or me, or simply exist in a.depressing relationship that ended Years ago. Love, like life is impermanence. We have expectations but few are.realised in the end.

Divorce can also be liberating in the end but i agree its painful. My parents never loved Each other. It was awful to see.

take care.

That sounds really stressful and awful what you are going through. I'm sorry that you are stuck in this situation. I wish you relief from suffering.
