Divorce IsFun

Recommended Posts

Mine has been going for over 2 years. Her lawyer happily dragging it out to increase payment time, amount, retirement she gets, and rack up lawyers fees. Fun times

Shouldn’t it go back to the date of separation or filing anyway? Doesn’t seem like she ought to be getting more than whatever she was initially going to get, except maybe with child support.

Not in IL. Not the way I understand it at least. The court can take any money I have spent considered dispensation of marital assets up until the day the divorce is final and award my ex half

Well it does vary by state but you may want to look into that.

’Course you might want to just get out with the least worse possible deal you can get. IIRC you left her and the family for some new piece? It’s not going to end well for you regardless so triage is the name of the game.

I get the vindictive side of her that wants me to suffer. The fact that IL let's her do it and it's completely fine with all that shlt is what's total BS

That sucks. It took a year and a half for us. Divorce was final 3 weeks before the world shut down for Covid.

I never realized how many of you Geeks are exactly like me. We should form a club for other eligible newly single men to trade tips on meeting women and stuff.

 I think you would have to nail his ex wife to get that service. Not sure though.

All right rookies, here's how to do a divorce.  First, you get your lawyer to sign an agreement that he will not make nor accept any phone calls from the other lawyer.  They both fake them up to bill you and your Ex.  Next, you include a clause that says any mail that your lawyer gets must be forwarded to you, unread.  If they read it, it's on their nickel.  Have your lawyer write the divorce decree.  Have them put a clause in the boilerplate that says, "If either party sues the other party after the divorce is granted, the losing party must pay the winning parties lawyer's fees, plus any other defense expenses plus lost wages."  Last, your lawyer does not get paid until the divorce is final.

Your lawyer will not think about this until you you refuse to pay their fist bill for the above services.  Then, your lawyer will for the first time actually wish to finish the divorce knowing that you are not a cash register.

Divorce lawyers look at the assets, agree how much they should take, keep you fighting until they have milked you.

My first wife was a horrible person.. Found out after the divorce that she cheated on me multiple times. She didn't want anything in the divorce other than her stuff (clothes and whatnot) and the laptop so she can keep hooking up I assume. We got divorced in just over the 6 months time span. She did get 1/3 of the proceeds from a house that we had bought together but other than that I have not had to deal with her at all. I remarried to a wonderful woman who was in a similar situation with her first husband (cheating). We just celebrated 6 years of marriage last month and still going strong.

Mine took 60 days.. no kids, just get the fvck out

Mine too.  I just listed the assets and the value or my estimate and said pick half.  She told me the house was undervalued so I said take the house if you think it is worth more and you can sell it for a more than the estimate.  She never mentioned it after that.  She took mostly Roth investments which was a good move on her part.    My lawyer was a friend and she said I was giving up too much but I was just happy to be done.

If I am lucky enough to experience hindu reincarnation, I hope that in my next life I meet all of your slut ex-wives, and that I know that they are not of the "marry" group.  :cheers:

Mine was similar, my lawyer was an army buddy.  He was telling me horror stories of wives wanting random stuff like end tables or throw rugs, I’m not going to argue over piddly stuff like that

I’m jealous. But not really as I raised my drinking buddies. But still jealous. But not. 
Depends on the day.

Thanks. I’m sure it will, sucks to go through and not what I’d hoped for, particularly for our boys, but it was her decision and I’m at peace with it. :cheers:
