[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m 100% sure the DH was not pulling his weight, feigned incompetence to get out of things. Now that he has to do the job he has risen to the task but I’m sure was different in marriage. [/quote]

+1. Men often step up when they are given no other choices, and also face the cold hard reality of what happens when no one picks up their slack.

Dollars to donuts he "did his best and let her do the rest" while married.

Single parenting is rough. She expected life to get easier when she was free of the dead weight. It's not easier to single parent, just different.

And since the world falls over swooning (like OP) when divorced dads pull 50% of their weight, it's salt in the wound as she's regarded as damaged goods.

I get why your friend is bitter, just saying. [/quote]

The ex isn't pulling 50% of his weight.  He is, apparently, pulling 100% of his weight 50% of the time.  [/quote]

As he should. The fact that you think this is notable is, in fact, notable, and proves PP's point.[/quote]
