The Divorce papers are Filed...Why Do People Get Married?

[Carlybee]

Coastie, what kind of work do you do? Texas has a pretty good job outlook if you are willing to move. If you are willing to do some hard work and get dirty, west Texas is booming with all the fracking...they are begging for people out there and most of the jobs pay well. My sister just got hired by an oil company in a position that involves some field work and she is working 50-60 hours a week with full benefits.

my ex whore wife fucked me over to or she thought. the kids decided to live with me full time and so it was. she treated them like shit. even took me to court 2 yrs latersaying i manipulated them against her. judge eventually threw the case out stating "there is overwhelming evidence that she is lying". it took a while but it worked out

advice for YOU!!

1 document everything no matter how small. this will be your only hope.
2 record or text convos in case she goes off on you. this will prove her inability to be stable for the kids.
3 keep talk ONLY about the kids and kid visits/exchanges. DO NOT ENGAGE IN HER ARGUMENTS!! it will only make you look foolish to the court.
4 do not be around her without a witness!!! she will lie about you to get you into trouble.

for everyone else...dont get married!! its basically you trusting that someone else will stay sane and not screw you over.

ATM I think if I were to ever get married, it would be a strictly religious marriage-not a civil one. Pretty sure legal messes like yours can be avoided that way. I'll look into it when/if I ever get to that decision.

State licensed marriage is incentivized for one person to be a fuckstick towards another and hold the cost of divorce (the entire cost, to everything and everyone) over their head. What a land of stupidity.

Been there, done that. Good luck to you, coastie.

Sorry to hear, coastie. Hope everything turns out okay. Or as reasonably as they can, in these situations.
