My introduction

[Two Time WinnerParticipant 1090]

I could write a book as an introduction but I’ll try to keep it brief. Married thirty years and the process server met me in the driveway while I was leaving for work. No notice beforehand but our marriage has been rocky for years. She said I abandoned the marriage. Well she abandoned me seven years ago when I had cancer. No emotional support whatever. She went to the appointments and got enough information to believe I would live and stopped. Worried about the paycheck I guess. Never went to a treatment with me, I had to call my dad or a friend to take me to chemotherapy as I was too dizzy to drive afterward. I lost interest in her after that and just went through the motions. Began seeing a therapist about a year ago and he helped me see just what she is. I guess the new me is not working for her.

When we married she earned as much as me. She was unhappy doing that so she quit work and I put her through graduate school about twelve years ago. New field paid half of what she earned before. Meanwhile I had advanced in my job and earned three times as much as she did. Four years ago she quit to help her mother who was in a nursing home getting care 24/7. Also to work on our marriage which must have involved becoming more controlling and shaming.
We talked about just agreeing to a divorce and splitting the assets. She changed her mind on that and put a lot of dirt in the Interrogatories. She went from just a controlling, self-absorbed narcissist to someone I don’t even know. Won’t even speak to me in the house except for bitching and verbal abuse. I just smile and nod, then walk out of the room.

A week after the filing she moved $85,000 out of our investment account to her sole account. She wants to get every dime I have. I’ve got a good attorney and fighting tooth and nail. Still living in the residence as I’m not going to support two households. Still paying all her expenses to avoid problems in court.
This is my second marriage, the first one lasted 14 years. Yes I am in my sixties and have learned late in life but it is MGTOW for me from now on.

I ain't got a wife to spend my money, I have to do that all by myself.

Welcome.

If only we had this knowledge when we were young.

At least you can live out your senior years for yourself and try and find meaning and value of who you are. Without always having to think of the woman’s needs first.

Your needs matter. Don’t neglect them.

Your not alone. Been there done that, as they say.
Your story is really close to my own.
I can tell you how great being single is, and how hard staying single will be for the first year. You don’t erase 30 yrs of programming overnight. Come here often for support you got a rocky road ahead but it will smooth out and you will shine.
Welcome

Welcome aboard.

You have had women/wives in your life for many years.

The initial appeal of a nawalt will be strong once the divorce is finalized.

Please stick around.

I’m also a 2nd timer. Never again.

All my life I've had doubts about who I am, where I belonged. Now I'm like the arrow that springs from the bow. No hesitation, no doubts. The path is clear. And what are you? Alive. Everything else is negotiable. Women have rights; men have responsibilities; MGTOW have freedom. Marriage is for chumps. If someone stands in the way of true justice, you simply walk up behind them and stab them in the heart-R'as al Ghul.

[Two Time WinnerParticipant 1090]

Thanks for all the encouragement. There are some dark days, especially thinking of all the years wasted.
Noticed I stretched out the time, I guess it just seemed longer. Dated for five years, married for twenty three. She was a great friend for five years, only changed after we got married. I know, I’m the first guy that every happened to.
Got a positive outlook on life now, things are only going to get better. Will do what I want, when I want.

I ain't got a wife to spend my money, I have to do that all by myself.

Oh my…

Welcome, brother
