44, single, woman, high earner, have trust fund, three healthy kids.

I’d rather gnaw off my own fingers than allow another man to marry me. Sex, relationships, even long term companionship? Sure. But giving half my things to a fat drunk loser? I’ve had enough of that for this lifetime thanks.

Divorced mid-40s and never want to share a household FT with another man. I might marry but I’d like to keep separate residences. I don’t want to be responsible for his.

You are not living on your own, you are living off your XDH!

I understand alimony is different today but I was a SAHM for many years while he worked his way up. Someone had to take care of the kids and home while he worked and traveled.

It works for us.

Man here and I've said many times in this forum, I will never marry again. If I even get the slightest notion to change my mind, all I have to do is read this forum and I snap out of it. I enjoy being single a lot more than I've enjoyed being married.

45 year old man and absolutely no way I will marry again. Long term committed relationship, yes. Marriage no

Do you still take full time care of those kids, do his laundry, cook him dinner, and provide regular sex to him? Or, are you working an equal number of hours for an equally demanding boss? No? Then sorry but you do not deserve to be supported by your ex husband. Go get a job. If he is still working, you should be doing an equal amount work of work until the day he retires.

Thank GOD that alimony reforms have put an end to the above insanity.

We did meditation and came to this agreement. We see nothing wrong with it. And I do work now because my kids are grown. Hate all you want but it works for us.

My kids are happy and I’ve kept a good relationship with their dad. I am so so so glad that I didn’t stay in an unhappy marriage any longer than I did. I deserve to be happy.

I I I I I - it certainly seems to be all about you!

+1. Unless there is alcoholism/addiction or abuse, it’s been proven better for the children. Plus divorce and living separately takes money away from the children.

I have absolutely not intention or desire to marry again (widowed). I love being single!

Please cite the study.

Common sense doesn't require citations.

I felt light years better to be in my own space with my kids and was a much better mom too. It took some time to grieve and adjust, but ever minute forward was an investment in me and my kids, not a dead marriage.

Do you feel more like yourself when apart or away for a weekend, do you dread coming home? If so I would consider leaving sooner than later.

I'm 4 years separated (long complicated divorce) but have zero intentions to marry again. I'm 36. I just don't know why I would.
