Here’s my intro I put it in the wrong section sorry!

[Lee22Participant 126]

Hey brothers! I started things out wrong at the good ol age of 21 when I met my gf and 2 years later wife she was 19 when we met and 21 when we married I was 23. I was young handsome college athlete and she was in love we started out early in a relationship we were young so the relationship had its issues we broke up got back together a few times fast forward 2 years and I decided that I thought she was the one and asked her to marry me she said yes of course. Halfway thorough the engagement I backed out which I still regret not following through till this day!! I felt the guilt from her and her disfunctional family, which was one of the reasons I backed out. I did care for her so I did feel bad I just wanted to wait I was young and I wanted to get my career going first with the promise to still marry her I ended up changing my mind and we got married. A year later my first son was born things started to change I had to deal with not only the drama from her disfunctional family, but she was different as well you guys can probably guess the rest. She became boring, the sex stopped, moody, a control freak, never satisfied. Through all that I hung in there gave up my life working 2 jobs to keep her happy never cheated, I thought I was doing the right thing to be a hard working family man and father, but something inside me was screaming for me to get out but I didn’t have the guts to do it. Six years later my second son was born by that time we had a house in a great neighborhood she still wasn’t satisfie. She became tired of the winter I’m from Michigan so I quit my job packed up the family rented our house to her brother and moved to Florida for a fresh start things still didn’t get better. Eventually we moved back. By then I finally woke up saw the light that she was slowly checking out of our marriage. She would come home from work barley talked to me, really no sex intimacy I could barley get a conversation going. So I said forget it I’m gonna give her the same treatment so I stopped trying to have sex or talk to her. I would only talk if it was about bills or the kids, then she broke out the conversation with I think we need Space maybe we should separate after fighting about it I agreed but I said we have to put the house on the market because I already new once we split it was over. Sure enough 1 month later I found out she was having an affair with her coworker… I approached her in a very calm manner and said you two can have each other you gave me my ticket to freedom and I immediately filed for divorce. So here I am 37 year old soon to be divorced man/father finnaly get to live life on my own terms thanks for having me brothers!

Welcome again bro . You can send keymaster a email asking to put your other intro thread into the introduction part .

Ps . Km i only hit the button to help lee with putting his other thread into the introduction section.

THE PLANTATION HAS NOW TURNED INTO THE KILLING FIELDS . WOMAN ARE NOW ROLLING CAMBODIAN STYLE .

The way your story began reminds me of what I was about to do with my ex(we are the same age now as you and your ex-wife were 16 years ago) but I am so glad she left me and freed me. Now she has tried contacting me but I have shut her down and she is beginning to move on. Feels so good knowing that I saved myself from years of misery and struggle. 37 years is still young and you have a bright future ahead brother! Welcome aboard.

Welcome Lee. Pretty standard intro, I’m afraid. It seems we’ve all been through the same wringer with the same outcome. Consider yourself fortunate that you did, eventually get out and you are much wiser as a result.
Now promise yourself you will never find yourself back on the plantation.

Already done! Just noticed and took care of it.
Thank you to Lee for being conscientious.

If you keep doing what you've always done... you're gonna keep getting what you always got.

Welcome Lee – glad to have you. Relax and take a load off. You’re in similar company and we’ve got your back.

[Anonymous 3]

Relax & give yourself some time to heal. I was 40 when I woke up. 37 is young. Glad you got here.

[The_YoungParticipant 1073]

Great story. Thank you for sharing it. It’s amazing how hard some men work to keep a marriage going and how little women care.

I’m glad you’ve started moving on

Brother, we need to stick together.

[Chase PesosParticipant 2136]

Welcome to the family.

Chase a check, never chase a chick...

[NoMoreParticipant 1233]

Welcome brother! I can empathize. It will get better.

A co-worker recently told me, "If you want to see who someone really is, divorce them." I have found out how true this is. When your wife drops the façade of being the caring partner, you will witness all of the greed, hate, and spite that she has masked. It is truly breathtaking!
