I laughed myself silly when some guy took a chain saw to his house so the X wouldn’t get it went to jail with a smile on his face,,,, most divorce’s are started by the woman, the one that wants the divorce should get nothing....male or female...with an acception for physical violence against the partner or drug abuse..In that case with evidence to back up physical abuse, ie: hospital records the abuser should lose everything...

My sister went through a nasty divorce. Worked three jobs to pay for all the bills and massive renovations to their house (unfortunately, they literally got stuck with a money pit) because her husband claimed his work had fallen off (he had his own company). She then discovered receipts for Bed & Breakfasts where he was taking his chickie and paying in cash. When he started bringing his slut home and openly going on dates with her, she handed him divorce papers.

She had years and years worth of receipts that she had paid, proof that she carried the financial weight of the home for the majority of their marriage. The only thing she wanted out of that mess was their daughter. She gets nothing in alimony and a pittance in child support.

In their divorce, it was all split 50/50. The house was sold and split 50/50. My sister wisely invested her money; who knows what he did with his. He now rents a room in a friend's home and boo hoos about how much he "loved" my sister.

Meanwhile, her career took off and she bought a beautiful new home. She's remarried to a wonderful man and they are thrilled to be expecting their first child.

From the outside, it may look like he "got the shaft" because he's struggling in his little rented room and she's living well now. But those who know the true story realize that she worked herself nearly to death supporting his lazy ass, while he mocked her and cheated on her, and once she was free of that boat anchor, her life bloomed.

If it was up to me, fitting justice would have been a lot more harsh; but carrying that out would land me in jail.

Are there good men, good decent men, getting screwed in divorces? Absolutely, Is it wrong? You bet! Are there nasty women making out big in divorces? Hell yes! It pays to know both sides before passing judgment on anyone's marriage.

Love the story about the guy who hacked up his house. Thanks for sharing it.

So even if the woman has multiple young children, and solid proof the tomcat she married is bedding anything that will hold still for 5 seconds (which by the way could endanger her life from incurable STD’s) she should get nothing if she files for divorce??

Then you’ll have the one that wants out trying like hell to bait the other one into hitting - if successful, the one that wants out is granted the divorce and gets everything. It would be a little risky to do that, though. You can push a man or a woman TOO far and land in the morgue instead of the ER.
