I don't know about this article. With the Ex-wife (may she burn in hell) I did the "regular dating thing" for over 2 years. We got married and after 10 years almost to the date (actually 2 month after our 10th anniversary) she dumped me, had the cops kick me out of my own house and slapped me with a restraining order. Then she took me to the cleaners. I am paying 750$ a month in child support with next to no visitation. At least I ain't paying alimony. Yeah I got bent over by the legal system and did not even get the pleasure of a reach around. I stayed away from women for 4 years after that. Then another one blind sided me. This time I took it slow. We lived together for 6 years and got married 2 years ago. so far we are doing OK and there have been rough spots. We have worked our way through them. I hope it will last this time.

$2100/month child support here. I don't mind paying the support, I do mind that there is no way to insure that even so much as a single penny ever gets to the kids.

Alimony is over, thankfully. That I did mind!

A man after my own heart. I prefer to think I traded up with my second wife.
