Why are you giving such crappy advice in a situation you have no idea about, you have no idea how big of an a-hole he may have been or if he has been busting his arse for years to resolve their differences.
Which is the crappy part?

You suggested manipulating and faking it to make the marriage 'work', I cant imagine there could be worse advice.
That's bc your understanding is small. I suggested do what it takes. He can do what is ideal later. For the time being, he can tell her what she wants to hear if that's what it takes.

And my wife thanks her dad constantly for ending his marriage even though her and her brother were extremely young. He got full custody and raised them almost their whole lives. He is far from perfect but not every situation can be saved by foolishly begging your wife to stay with you for "the sake of the kids".


Don't disagree at all.

Those are inaccurate absolutes. My life is proof.

You don't think he is doing that? It sounds to me like he has/is fighting for his marriage and for some time now.
No, I don't think he is doing that. That much is obvious. He said he is clueless. How can he be telling her what she wants to hear if he is clueless?

That woman blames the husband for the situation they are in. You are right she served the papers and believe it or not she is riding cock somewhere else. OP needs to move on and try and take care of 7 kids. oh my lord 7 kids

Attack me personally bc you lack understanding. Well done. Ad Hominem is always a sign that you can't discuss/debate very well.


You stated that 100% capitulation to her demands is what saved your marriage. People have gained understanding about you from your statements in this thread. If they don't know the full story, it's because you aren't telling it. If incorrect, expand and educate them.

Y'all ever notice how the OP in threads like this abandons at about page 3, leaving the rest of us to bash each other like lunatics?

Guys, nothing is absolute. Learning to discuss and debate without getting personal is a good thing.

I would start documenting everything for court if it goes that far. You want as much custody as you can. get a damn fricking good lawyer that specializes in male clients


This and This!

If you want to keep trying that's your gig bro.

I've been down this road including the counseling part. Getting joint legal and residential custody was the best thing I ever did. It's worth the money you will pay to an attorney to have your kids with you as much as possible. Try not to settle for that every-other-weekend shite.

I promise, you will get past all of this and things will get better. After I was divorced for a while I realized how genuinely unhappy I was being married to my Ex. Life is great today and my son is an awesome kid.

Wife cheats on you, does drugs, and puts the kids in danger and yet divorce isnt possible. What were you saying about incorrect absolutes?

Okay, your priority at this point is simple—be the best dad you can be.


The only thing that really matters at this point. Use this situation to become a better human being. It is an opportunity to do that. It will hurt but use it to challenge yourself to grow.

Well at least you're pretty much admitting you're full of shite. Takes a man to do that, amirite?

But you are jumping ahead to her changing the way she thinks about working things out.
