[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How has your life gone since the split?  Better or worse?  What things have been the most surprising?[/quote]

In my case, it is better.  Legal custody is split 50/50%, except DD wanted to live with me.  She was 13, and got to make the decision.  Wife was a SAHM -- but had an affair.  I found out...I could smell it.  I spent the money on a DNA test to confirm that 1) it was semen in her underwear, and 2) the semen was not mine.  (I knew it was not, as we had not had sex in a while).  I did not tell DD why I was leaving her mom.

Lawyer was decent:  apparently in VA, if infidelity is proven, the person that was not faithful loses alimony.  So, we split up.  I pay her little:  $1.5K/month for 20 years for her half of the house.   She left the area, and lives about 100 miles from here.  She sees dd every other weekend.

I am a 50yo divorced father, professional, making close to 200K, and have found that I am a hot commodity if I stick to people my age (which I do -- how can I talk to someone who does not remember Alex P Keating, and does not know that the 80's had a bad recession?).  I have not introduced my DD to any date.  I am not sure if I want to remarry right now.  I am kind of bitter.  But, I am enjoying meeting new people, and find the women like a guy with stable income and a good sense of humor.
