Ain't met anyone seeing a shrink that I can immediately recall.

Mike, being a child of divorce, I have to say, you are full of shiit. My parents divorce was way better than the toxic marriage. (I was 15 at the time my brother 11)

I'll give you credit for the damage a divorce/breakup MAY do to young kids, but when kids are older, they adapt pretty well. I know people who get along better divorced than married. Just because kids are involved, doesn't mean they are going to be scarred for life. Many times the kids are scarred because the parents DIDN'T separate. Every situation is different, and every situation has some similar aspects. But, to say kids will be ireperably damaged just because of a divorce is totally false.
And just because two people divorce, doesn't mean they aren't or won't live up to their obligations. If they don't take care their obligations when they divorce, I don't think it would be a stretch say they weren't taking care of it while they were married.
Divorce doesn't have to be the end for all parties, it can sometimes be the beginning.

So, you've met my ex-wife? lol.

Splitting up with my ex wife was the best thing I ever did. My kids didn't agree at first. But now they see how things happened they are grateful we did.

OK guys, this ain't aimed at anyone in particular....

So we should change the marriage vows, no reason to set anyone up to break them.

First off, we gotta take God out of the equation, so any vows made before Him won't be broken.

DEFINITELY throw out "for better, for worse" as that can be interpreted any number of ways, especially with regards to personal happiness.

Likewise, toss out that "forsaking all others" crapola. I mean it is often stated divorce rarely occurs in the absence of an available option, most usually for one party. This has been expressed here as a monkey doesn't let go of the old branch until it has hold of a new one. In light of that undeniable reality, how about "forsaking all others until I meet someone I like better".

Might as well throw out "for richer, for poorer" too. I mean dividing up the riches is generally a contentious part of a divorce. Instead of that we need to require a pre-nup going in to avoid unanticipated conflict. We need to decide ahead of time about who gets what.


I'm pretty sure there's any number of God-free civil "marriage" ceremonies out there. And of course, if we're gonna throw God out, might as well stop objecting to the whole gender-specific thing, the multiple spouses thing and the exclusion of animals.

No worries, kids wiil never-ever learn divorce from their parents' example (most often ONE parent's example)..

Its not like they will avoid marriage altogether either.

Doesn't matter even if they do, kids adjust to single parents too.



Hey, this thread could make me more popular even than that dead cat thread......

Rog, the only way this is ever gonna work is if you've already gone through with the divorce, and are set up on your own, wherever that is.

I would suggest a small and simple house on a piece of property somewhere.

Getting there could turn out to be hellacious beyond your worst expectations, especially when the other party finds out you're really going through with this.

FWIW I didn't fight about anything material, just took the hit, which is why I'm so broke grin

I heard a comedian suggest that marriages should be three-year contracts, with options to renew.

Just show them your house and explain your lifestyle. That should filter out any weak candidates. Unless they have seen your enormous schlong and heard your Tarzan tales of life in darkest africa, that will fetch the high achievers.

Women meet Birdy, they jump to the conclusion that he's just ugly.

But after they get ta know him, they realize their first impression was wrong.

They figure out he's ugly *and* broke.
