This sucks at 58

[Monk]

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 )

if it was me, the house would mysteriously become unliveable and the car would get stolen too. take her off the insurance and have someone take that car. and the house would suddenly have a mold problem. that bitch wouldnt get anything from me. my pension would be hidden also. its time to play dirty!

If the guy cheated on the woman I could see the woman getting half of his stuff. Otherwise I dont see why she should get anything. If she cheated on him she should get $0. If they agreed to split she should get $0. Women can take care of themselves why should they get half of anything, especialy when the woman already works! Anything that was shared should just be split down the middle when sold. The laws on this are insane and ill make sure to get a pre-nup.

Wow. You're a bit out of step.

First, the woman didn't work, so if the guy keeps it all, WTF is she going to do? Pump gas and try to live on minimum wage? Welcoem to having her on welfare. Great plan you've got there!!

Second, they got married and stayed together for 35 years. She raised the kids, presumably kept and cleaned house, helped the kids with homework, chauffered the kids, clipped coupons and did all that crap. In your mind, that contribution was worth ZERO.

Why don't you try this -- buy a house and rent a full time cook, maid and babysitter, and personal shopper, and see if you can do it for zero dollars.

Idiotic...

Whoa dude chill how are you gonna call me out for my personal opinion? I understand that your trying to be understanding and look cool for the few ladies here, but sorry if I have no sympathy for a man OR woman cheats on their spouse. I simply stated if someone cheats then they dont deserve a dime. Whatever you do dont lose sleep on MY opinion.

Original use of the word idiotic....

She gets the gold mine, he gets the shaft. They split it all down the middle, and she got the better half......

being a housewife was her job. by cheating, she chose to quit her job. when you quit , you dont have any benefits. you get shown the door. screw her, its not his problem how she eats or lives. she lost that priveledge when she stepped out. the chick should be on her own

you obviously don't live on the same planet as the rest of us. Any lawyer or judge would laugh in your face if you tried to present this as an argument.

I worked with a retired Chief Warrant officer once that had just gone through a divorce after 20+ years of marriage. He gave up his house, a vehicle, most of thier belongings and half his retirement pay.

He told me he had devised a plan TOO LATE to put into action.

First he said he would get a bottle of something potent and then stalk her till he found her somewhere he could run the B**** over.

Stop the vehicle and commence drinking out of the bottle till the police/sherrif arrived.

When his lawyer went to court he would claim temporary insanity from the alcohol and hope for "Involutary Manslaughter".

After serving a 7-10 year stretch or less he would be free of all obligation.

As it stood she had everything and half his retirement pay for the rest of her life.

His claim to fame was 7-10 was nothing compared to 30 to 40 years.

You're ridiculous. She'd get whatever the judge says she gets and there isn't one thing you can do about it. Any of the shit you're talking about doing here would get you thrown in jail. You wouldn't be the the first tough guy to find out that "yes, you too can be in this situation". Just shut up and leave the advice to people who know what they're talking about.

You're divorced right now.....aren't you? Because there is no way that a woman would stay with you after you've told her that.
