Life This sucks at 58 - Page 11

Monk · 04-28-2009, 07:15 PM

I normally don't post on here,but damn I need to vent. I have (had) been married to the same woman for over 35 years. Never a major problem in our relationship. Five weeks ago she informs me she wants a divorce as she has met someone and wants something different in her life.

I worked 25 years for Williams Energy, we put two daughters through college and helped them, as we could, get established in life.

So,today was a meeting between the lawyers and I find out I will have to give her the house (paid for ) a car (new) and 1/2 of my pension,savings, and investments. Now all of that was ours 50/50 any way and she did her part in the marriage. Not only does it hurt like hell but now it looks like at 58 I have to start all over again.

Sorry for spelling or grammer but right now I don't care my heart is broken and soon to be homeless (STARTING OVER AT 58 )

ROAR FUTHERMUCKER! I'm a Clam hammer....

and dammit People LIKE ME MORE THAN HER!!"

You'll bounce a little more after your shower, maybe sing a little on the way in for breakfast....you'll see the marker board on your fridge the girls gave you to keep track of things but haven't used yet.....you'll walk over to it, pick up the marker and write

"EXs-Name...its not the pants that make your ass look fat"

Your day is golden, unless you suddenly find yourself in a drunken fog, trying to steal the pocket change out of a shot up pickup truck in Springfield Missouri.

I just sprayed scotch on my keyboard I'm speechless that is up there with the funniest stuff I have ever read

If you posted more, you probably could have gotten some good advice from some qualified people about all of this, before you got bent over.

I'm sorry to hear about this man. Guys get annihilated in divorce court.

I hope you take this in the spirit its meant...I composed a new joke just for you.

"What do my ex wife and the deadliest catch have in common?"
"Alot of men are seen wet, beaten, tired and catching crabs this spring"

This maybe your best yet. Classic Definately going on a t-shirt

I really wish I could share a story from my brother's last night here, when I used that saying in real life...."you assholes really, really have your bad idea jeans on....this is darwin winning waiting to happen"

It was a terrible, terrible idea.....but it was effing awesome.

That led into a late night discussion about branding that. "bad idea jeans".....and then the Tshirt line to go with it. "hold my beer, watch this".....stuff like that.

Just because you had a bad experience with a 30-something, don't ruin things for the rest of us.

Pioli Zombie · 04-28-2009, 10:21 PM

Iowanian has been an inspiration tonight. Other things I don't have to say again.

No, I don't think you're crazy

You look great

You're a good mother

Mmmmmm. I love your cooking

Yes Dear

Things I can say now....

You ARE just like your mother

Your sister is a ****

Your brothers are ****ing idiots

Your bosses were all right!

Your ass IS fat and my friends and family DO think your a bitch.

That felt good

OTOH, more "mature" broads...they understand our feelings; they will read Emerson and Thoreau and Angelo with us. And we can rent Fried Green Tomatoes, Steel Magnolias, Thelma and Louise and The Way We Were...all on the same weekend. They even bring the Kleenex, bi-atch. Yo.

So I've been TOLD...

**Iowanian** · 04-28-2009, 10:23 PM

Thats therapy right there my brothers.

Monk.

Post a list of shit you hated that you don't have to do anymore. That will be a swim in healing waters right there.

I think its going to be awesome, you know, the next time Monk is on the phone getting an earful, and he's going to out of no-where bust out some ridiculous Chiefsplanet stuff on her and leave her speechless.

"It doesn't matter what I did last saturday, I know you hated Jane, thats why I tapped her in the tooter on top of your grandmother's afgan that you forgot in my pile...."

Then use the "bad idea jeans-30 year old hot girlfriend-mario cart tournament" for the finishing move. "She'll leave the lights on WHILE we're Effing in the afternoon AND she's flexible enough to do this thing called the Reverse cowgirl....if I'd have known what good cooter was the past 20 years, I'd have had you stand on your head in the garage and filled yours with ice and beer"

That wasn't her fault. That place would be bad at any age.

I know I will be wrong but not even the womens chance of being wrong?

Keep reading. I wasn't saying it was anything he did. If she's able to meet AND fall for someone else without showing signs, then she's definitely good and cold hearted.

**jAZ** · 04-28-2009, 10:29 PM

fuck that.

How dare she even *ask* for more than 1/2 of everything. I just told my wife that if she ever leaves me after 35 years for something different, I'm keeping the house and the car.

**Iowanian** · 04-28-2009, 10:31 PM

I prevented this by asking for a wood chipper for a wedding gift from my father in law.
