I am really, really glad you're not my mother-in-law.
I’m not his mother—he lives with her, I’m his father.
And he’s going on 17 soon.
He’s pretty much from observation (divorce #1, my likely divorce #2) come to a M.G.T.O.W (Men Going Their Own Way) point of view. I’m merely trying to reinforce what he already knows.
He has no desire to be in my position: married to a 2nd wife with 2 kids who is going to move on to greener passages. This country favors wives whoring it up (like the current wife, who has cheated I-can’t-remember-how-many times—I should use a spreadsheet), divorcing, getting child support (in reality, tax free alimony), then getting a new man.
The studies that say that both spouses are worse off after a divorce... not true if the woman remarries or gets a sugar daddy and gets bucket loads of “child support” from the ex- sucker.
I’m sending in my passport renewal this week, with the end goal of possibly joining up with the Kurds to fight against ISIS, so that if the wife leaves, I can vote with my feet against the system.
Should the current “wife” decide to break up the family for greener pastures, I will take a few thousand in cash with me, body armor & carrier, boots, Russian scopes, etc, and leave nothing behind but debt. I figure I’ll fight for a few months, kill some ISIS terrorists, then eventually get killed.
