[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, studies show men tsk it harder.  The suicide rate for males is disturbingly high.  With divorced males it’s even higher.  [b]Women initiate divorce about 70% of the time from what I’ve read.[/b]

From my personal experience, some didn’t see it coming and she’s with another lover months if not weeks after.  Plus, finding male only support groups like this is hard unless you’re a veteran.  My personal experience is while they don’t specialize in divorce support per se, they are certainly supportive of a lot of these issues and divorce being among them.  I also find female veterans a little more fri madly to deal with.[/quote]

This is true but doesn't fully encompass the truth - my husband was the one who came to me and said he was unhappy, wasn't attracted to me, didn't feel a connection, that he might have been in love with a coworker etc. etc..... but he also didn't do anything about it. He didn't want to go to counseling to repair our marriage but he also didn't want to separate. So eventually I was the one to leave and I am the one handling all of the logistics. So I am contributing to that statistic but in reality, I was not the one who was unhappy and dissatisfied with my marriage. But I guess my husband would have just continued on like that forever?
