Why did you divorce?

My kids were 5 and 7 when we split and I was a single dad for two years before remarrying. My ex-wife had the requisite court ordered "reasonable and customary visitation", some weekends, some holidays, and though we were (are) largely amicable there were times that things became acrimonious (in no small due to her subsequent failed relationships and nearly fatal RX pain killer abuse). I recently celebrated my 25th Anniversary with my second wife with whom I raised my kids as well as one of hers (the other was already an adult when we met.)

The "kids" still have a loving relationship with their mother though my wife, their stepmother, is "Mom".
Congrats on 25 years! Never to late to find true love that lasts that long! I'm happy for you!
 
Realized I loved him as a friend, sex life was in the tank, not really an active interest in kink, and honestly? Division of household labor was a HUGE problem... I'm definitely more sexually attracted to women. But another aspect is he was Mr. Nice Guy to everyone else, while being kind of a shit husband so I definitely got blamed for everything. I've never regretted not having my own savings account more...
 
I married a feminist.

I didn't realize it at the time, being naive as I was. I thought we were kindred spirits. So, after two years of "courting", I asked her to marry me, and we did. Then the discussion of age, having kids, and how many kids over the next few years drove a wedge between us. My limit was three, while she seemed to want to sit and hold a baby ... until they needed more attention. Then it was "Let's have another." So, with enough toddlers and pre-schoolers going effectively unsupervised in the house (with a stay-at-home-mom), I said "Enough!" and had a vasectomy.

That seemed to end our amicable sexual relations, and things went downhill from there. She became far more politically liberal and feminist in her attitudes ("My body, my choice"), which I hadn't seen before. So, I went through some sexually barren years. In retrospect, there were other signs in those early years, which I ignorantly passed off as "quirks".

Fast forward over a decade later (when the kids were older), I decided our leading separate lives should take the next logical step. When she discovered I found another sexually underserved wife (impotent husband) to balance our physical needs, my wife decided divorce was in order. I didn't disagree, and I organized all of the financials and logistics for mediator to prepare a separation agreement.

Then she changed her mind about the divorce. I didn't!

I'm MUCH happier now. My ex? From what I hear, not as much.

She missed her "house boy" who took care of the finances, kids, household chores, etc (as well as me making the higher salary from a full-time job!).

How long were you married?

Did she find more manly men while you were still married, or wait until after?

I think there are many women that would rather have your tongue than a bigger cock.
We were only married about 4 years. It started to become clear that we didn’t belong together after the first year. She never cheated on me but she did flirt with more manly men closer to our divorce.

All of the women I have had sex with did prefer my tongue over my little dick.
 
Found a better woman. Married her. That was 30 years ago. I definitely made the right decision.

Wow, almost the same situation. 5 yrs, 2 girls 4 & 6 wife was cheating and asked me to leave. I made it a point to have the girls very often, I missed them badly.
I met a girl at a family party that was divorcing also and we chatted about about this. We have been together 34 yrs, have 5 grand kids and are OK!! My ex is a mess, been married twice and spent some time in a mental hospital.
Fuck her! I no time for the crazy cunt.
 
She said she wanted me to have a girlfriend on the side but she didn't want to know about it. When I went on a "date" one night, she followed me. The next day she confronted me and my reason was suddenly invalid.

I would like to ask the readers of this thread what they think of that?

She set you up, simple as that.

What reason did she give for "wanting" you to have a gf on the side in the first place?
