"Mais bien sur."

"No maybes."

"'Mais bien sur.' But of course, yes. The baron does not lie."

My late fiance was a Kendo master (sword master) ... I’m a rather advanced black belt as well. However, My lady would routinely hand my rear end to me whenever I was brave enough
to spare with her. Dont ever underestimate the skills of a well trained woman

There is no limit to the vengefulness of women.

Thank God I’m a lifelong bachelor at 62. Loneliness I can deal with.

It’s certainly preferable to being emotionally and financially raped by a revenge-crazed ex-spouse who filed for divorce because I wasn’t making enough money to support her desired lifestyle ... or maybe just because she had an urge to &%#$ the pool boy.

I’m always polite and proper to women, and I do have a lot of respect for certain married couples of my acquaintance who seem genuinely devoted to each other.

But I’ve had a taste of the sheer insanity many of today’s women are capable of, and I’ve been forced to say ... “that sure ain’t for me.”

And please don’t give me that old “you just haven’t found the right one yet” routine. At my age, it’s not going to happen.

And financially ruin you if you depend upon the respect of your business partners and customers. It’s tantamount to admitting guilt to whatever your challenger accused you of. Back to the days of trial by combat—the pure of heart always wins. I wonder if it just depended on who was better trained or practiced?

I’m a 59 yr old twice divorce female who NEVER put my ex husbands through ANY of this crap. But my current live in for 15 years has had an ex shrew who did all of this and more.

you’re smart to say single and keep all of your assets!

If this judge is like most divorce judges, he is probably scratching his head, wondering why ever in the world the ex-wife wants to question this ex-husband’s eligibility for custody. Unsupervised.
