[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m literally being told by the divorced dads: I want a family structure; I want another kid; I have money and can support a family.

Yeah, they do. They also want someone to do the household stuff (best case, split the load). They do not want to be solely responsible for household and kid stuff. Which is fine, I don't either, but the big question is why did they divorce then?[/quote]

This. Women usually file for divorce…not men. 70% are initiated by the woman.[/quote]

I keep hearing this stat on this board; is there a citation?[/quote]

I don't think it's 70%. It's probably 98%. And the 2% who file must have been violently assaulted by their ex lol. Men simply do not file for divorce. Even in cases when the wife is clearly the issue, they rather suffer in agony, loneliness and despair than file for divorce.

Other men also don't encourage their male friends to file for divorce when divorce is clearly the best option. For women it's a different story. Their friends will endlessly encourage them to do what's best for them and file for divorce.

I think women tend to suffer more internally when they are in a bad marriage because women spend a lot of emotional capital in a marriage. Most men don't spend near the same level of emotional capital as men. Even worse, how many men do you think sit back and evaluate the relationship the way women do? The only time men will think about the state of the relationship is when they are dragged to therapy.
