DON'T GET EVEN GET EVERYTHING View Quote give another fucking she'll never forget |

Quoted: LOL. If you think men are not naturally programmed to fight, fuck, hunt, kill, and conquer, you don't know a thing about men. It is only socialization that keeps men from reverting to their natural state. Go visit a third world country and ask a man about it. I recommend Somalia. Man's natural state is savage. Women also have a natural state... Funny, how nobody objects to the reality men..."man caves" and all...but you say women have a natural state and it's ZOMG PATRIARCHY... LOL. View Quote Some women are taught divorce is bad and a lot of those pay for it. maybe dial it back just a bit. I prefer the whole all guys are creepy and all women are crazy. Creepy in that in their pursuit of women and sex they are awkward and weird. Crazy in that in their pursuit of man and support they sometimes hold on to strange ideas that provide neither. |

"She wants to remain friends" Let me finish that for you..... "until our divorce is final" OP, you have now entered into the business phase of your imploding marriage. DON'T let your guard down. DON'T use the same attorney DON'T bargain shop for an attorney DON'T listen to 98% of the advice you are getting ready to get here Been through this. Stay strong, you are young and there is a hell of a life waiting for you on the other side of this. View Quote You have a long life ahead of you, make sure everything works out in your favor. |

I am sorry brother and I can relate. My wife broke my heart and left after everything we had been through and that was a shit load. We basically grew up together.
All I can say is that the sun still shines, the world is my oyster and it hurts less every day. But yes, it still hurts.....a lot |

Quoted: I'd like to see that work. She tells lawyer "Hes got a ton of guns" and he immediately requests disclosure of property. If it looks even a tiny bit off from "her knowledge", they can request records. If you don't provide them accurately, jail time could be threatened. Lawyers aren't dumb. This is what they do. Never think that you're a special pony and can outsmart the courts that ALL OF US have already tried to beat View Quote |

Utah is a no fault state, no fucks given about who's banging who. The wife will get all. It honestly doesn't matter what she says she wants, the court will give her what they decide.
Sell the house and split it, seriously, or it's all going to be hers. Try to pay lump sum alimony of possible. Take half, or less, whatever the judge gives you and fucking run. File tomorrow and he done or your Angus is going to get peppered. Don't draw this out, you can always get married again to her later if you need. Be courteous until the paperwork is finalized, she can be totally shitty to you, you don't get that option here. If you come out with nothing, but no payment your years ahead and freedom to move on. Watched a Utah divorce more than once, it only turns out one way. |

Quoted:
She promised that she would not ask me for any of my gun stuff, and I have a decent collection with lots of reloading gear. Trust me, she is not cheating, but I think she wants the life of some of her younger girlfriends. All she asked for is what she is entitled to by law. Is that 50% of the assets? If so, that is going to hurt even though I have been the primary breadwinner for most of the years, bringing home at least 75% of the income, at times 100%. I realize that that it isn't all about income but I also do a lot around the house, helping wherever I can. I wanted financial freedom and she wants to be free of being a wife. Kids are grown so child support is not an issue. View Quote |

Don’t take legal advice from the internet...but for what it’s worth, the majority of states are no fault. Regardless, most will give favor to the woman especially when kids are involved regardless of cheating.

We could argue that there are some cultural influences and I agree with that...but the absence of laws, governance, western religion...it's pretty much the more primitive state you will find. Get in the way back machine and you can find plenty of examples...Vikings perhaps? Either way, the domestication of modern man has been fully achieved in the west. It worked so well that many don't even begin to comprehend that there has ever been any other way. |

marriage counseling? View Quote I spoke to female friends and they think she is giving up a lot for a little fun. I don't think I can give her the kind of attention that she is looking for. Something fresh and new. No marriage counselor can fix that. |

Lawyer up and hire a PI if necessary. Be ruthless. Read Heartiste. Get in shape. Find a hotter replacement. Cut off ALL contact unless you have children.

I'm sure most of it has been covered.
At least you found out now. Don't get married again. |

Is the GD consensus to never get your wife a boob job?
Been married 5 tears, 2 kids, wife and I have talked about a boob job, but is more for me than her. |
|
Fuckin yikes.
I’ve been married for a year and this shit always scares the hell out of me - that the woman you trust and love will just hit the eject button 10, 20, 30 years down the line. Probably doesn’t help that she says she wants a boob job too (although she always said that) Good luck op. |
|
Maybe one or both of the bags are leaking affecting her thinking?

View Quote It brings extra attention you may not need in your relationship. its going to effect her and how she views your relationship. she may feel she modified herself because she wasn't good enough for you as is. |

Quoted:
Yep. And sometimes those same guys will eject on their wives too. She "got fat" and "let herself go" and "acts bitchy" etc, etc, etc. Sometimes, those are all just excuses they tell themselves and others to feel better about dumping the woman who stood by them for years so they can chase younger, hotter women in their new, zippy sports car. I feel bad for the spouses in both instances. Sometimes, they've done nothing wrong but failed to meet expectations set too high. View Quote |

Divorce threads turn into a men's rights movement thread, always.
OP, best of luck. |
|
I have not gone through a divorce, and hope to never. That said, I got to watch 2 of my best friends go through them. If you can save your retirement, give her everything else as it is replaceable. Having to work until your 70 to get a small retirement is not a good option.
Good luck OP, and sorry to hear about your loss. |
|
Quoted:
Judge flat out told my lawyer and I if we did prove adultery he wasn't going to do anything about it. He wanted to make sure that he got that out of the way so we weren't wasting everyone's time. Good luck OP! Pick your battles. In the end a lot of things you believe matter now won't once you've spent thousands on attorney fee's and years in court. View Quote |
|
For what it's worth, get the idea out of your head that you can be friends after. Unless you don't love her at all, then it could happen.

View Quote My brother got divorcd about 10 years ago, after 10 years of marrage. His wife told him one day she didn't love him anymore and she had grown, while he stayed the same... He had paid to put her through school and when she was done, got a huge promotion at work. Overnight she became a white collar worker while he was still joe six pack... she was raised in a blue collar home by a union construction worker father. She decided he didnt fit into her new life and wanted him out. He was devastated and broken for a long time, but today he is happy and has a great life. To the OP, lawyer up as fast as you can. I saw what happens when you dont and you will pay dearly for it in the end. The faster you get a knock-down-kick her in the ass-eye gouging- scumbag lawyer working for you, the sooner he can protect you from the one she probably already spoke to... |

When ever a someone says they still want to be friends, that's just code for "I want to use you" I've seen that more than once. Play along till your lawyer gets you a game plan then tell her to go shit in her hands and clap. |

Watched a Utah divorce more than once, it only turns out one way. View Quote In the USA, marriage is a contractual matter. A contract between you, your wife & the State. When it comes time to dissolve the contract, the State makes the final decisions, and the deck is stacked against the XY participant. The best part is most states have enacted statutes that put you in to the contracted status even if you only cohabitate - if you do so for more than a few weeks at a time. The game is rigged. You may have to gnaw off an arm to get out of the trap, but once you are free you will heal up ok. Get out as clean as you can. |

I’ll be your friend. She can go fuck off. |

Quoted: All women are like that and all men are rapists. The difference is that men are taught rape is wrong and not to do it. Women are not taught that divorce is wrong. Some figure it out on their own. Many don't. There is a difference. View Quote |
