[quote=Anonymous]57yo Male.  Divorced for 4 years.  My life is amazing and only getting better.

The divorce was tough - she filed and created a custody battle where there didn't need to be one.  I had very much wanted to go to counseling and do whatever it took to stay together but she wanted none of that.

The first couple years after divorce I wanted NOTHING to do with a relationship.  I simply lived my life and made my child the focus; HS, college plans, etc.  I absolutely LOVED having financial autonomy - no more demands that I make more money, or fighting about what to do with it.  The clouds had parted and the sun was shining once again!

Then I started to get the feeling that I'd like to date, so I did via a dating app.  It went ok; a couple of false starts after a lot of first/last so-so dates.  Then I tried a different site that was female centric (Bumble) and met an incredible woman who is slightly older than me with very similar values and attitudes.  We are totally in love and very committed to each other.  It's the healthiest relationship we can recall having, because we have lived through our shit, made our mistakes, and both LEARNED from them.

I never thought I'd feel this way at this point in my life.  And for those that are curious, the sex is incredible; frequent, deeply connected, loving, honest, playful, and hot. We are both convinced that this is because of totally open communication and constant talking about our life and relationship.

If you feel like you need to divorce - do it!  Trust me, there is a whole world of happiness out there and it's up to each person to find their own.  Good luck.[/quote]
