[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Women are the prize. The biggest post divorce flex for a man is securing another woman. Younger, preferably, but a woman nevertheless. Women, on the other hand,  cite friendships, kids, family, travel, volunteer work, self care, etc. Depth.

I’m divorced and happier single with kids than I’ve ever been in my life. DGAF about what the ex is doing or who he is doing — just glad to be free.

Keep your head up, OP. It gets better. Great, even. Tune out the old narratives about what your life is supposed to be, who you are supposed to be with, and build something brand new that feels true for you.[/quote]

True. I’m terrified my ex will end up with a woman who f’s up our tenuous coparenting relationship though. My ex is already extremely self-centered as it is. If a new gf/wife starts making demands that mess things up, it’s going to be hard. OTOH maybe he’ll find a good woman who will back me up on basic parenting good sense stuff (e.g, yes you do need to feed kid something other than fast food; yes kid does need to shower; yes you do need functioning smoke alarms.)
