I best a lot of these are politically based. Look at the huge divide b/w gender on basic political views stats.
There was no earthly way I could make my ex-wife happy. She would complain about money issues, so I worked more. Then I was a jerk for never being home. I never gave up though. I made a promise before God that I would preserve the marriage. Apparently she didn’t feel as strongly about her promise. I came home one day and she’d left.

Hypergamy 💰💰💰
Coincidentally, I may be going through this. My wife of twenty years became morbidly obese after our wedding. Other than for her health, it never bothered me and I certainly never said a word about it. She is ten years younger and I figured she would deal with it when she was ready. Well, she finally did and is now back to her wedding size and she makes clear that other men are noticing her now. She’s taken on an arrogant attitude and is different. I don’t know if it’s menopause, Ozempic, a midlife crisis or a combo, but now we barely speak. I guess it will either be a phase or she’ll get a boyfriend. I’m too tired to play games.
For cash and prizes. That's it.
Men will sacrifice their happiness for their families.
Women will sacrifice their families for their happiness.
This piece seems to be data-free. Is some kind of significant spike in divorces really happening? Because if it is, I certainly haven’t noticed. Sure, I’m aware of a failed marriage here or there among my circle of acquaintances, but I haven’t noticed anything resembling an upwards spike. Anyone have any relevant stats?
These women see it as a way to get rich while putting in very little effort. Who cares if the children don’t get to see their daddy anymore? Mommy has to get her hair and nails done.
OK, this article is freaking me out, because it describes my situation almost to perfection. This is my first post-divorce Christmas, and the only thing missing is that so far as I know my ex-wife hasn’t posted any videos from her car. But everything else is a match. I suppose there is some solace in knowing that I am not alone.
Their income, the new boyfriends income, plus 1/2 the old guys income…
Follow the money.
Marriage is a commitment. Not just a shared love dream.
Today’s women are gullible to be victim gain preference and covet green grass
I see this a lot outside the south and Utah
Man I’m so grateful men and girls were so aligned in my era 70s to 80s

Love her
It has been said that a man will sacrifice his happiness for his family whilst many women will sacrifice the family for their own happiness.
The state has become the Father for too many. It has become the source of retirement when children use to be what people depended on in their old age .This breakdown of the family is due today to a break down in religion. Christian marriages tend to last longer but the current culture is determined to cut Christians out of the political process. It has largely succeeded with Islam moving in to fill the void .
(but an act of self-destruction that harms many others in the process.)
I would not have understood this to be true until I witnessed it happen.
My ex wife used to write down cute thinks the kids said. My favorite was when my 4 year old daughter said: “Daddy is probably going to leave us some day and marry someone nice.”
All people are social by nature
I think that is a myth, widely believed. I know I sure am not, neither is my wife.
But I hear it a lot in different contexts. “People are naturally social.”
