dating world....**** it man, stay outta that shit for a while. Take a nice vacation. Go see the world. Hang out with good buddies. Do some sports you have never done. without pussy and kids you are FREE. Get out there and try new things. I guarantee you will learn new things about yourself. It's hard to move on but don't let the bullshit bring you down. I always say : It's a great day if you're alive ! There's some good guys around here if you need some help and support. No shit we love you like a bro.
This right here!

Go live life! Find a new hobby or activity and give it a try. Do a youtube search for something you are interested in, but never tried and do it. There is a whole world out there.

^^ Good advice.

Also, you can still stay friends with her brother/family etc... It'll be the worst thing that could happen to her lol I invited my ex wife's brother to play in a rec basketball league with me a little over a year ago.

You can't hoop.

OP, listen here... I've been in your shoes, if you want to win out and be mind free follow my tips!

1. Cut the bitch off your bank account and credit cards
2. Find a lawyer (if you can find a joint one it will be in best interest) woman can make you pay for a split which could cost you!
3. Figure out debt you've accrued together/personal if you need to buy her out of the debt and keep the house if you bought it... I pray you didn't co-sign with her
4. Any conversations between the two of you, RECORD EVERYTHING!
5. Assets... give her what she bought but don't give in to everything, at the same time if you can replace it in time just let it go
6. Go to bar, find an attractive lady and get laid
7. Be ready for HELL, she made the mistake and that's on her not you so forget hating yourself

Crap happens but realize your going to happier and less stressed out in the long run

1) Start interviewing lawyers, find one, and do as they say. Find a lawyer that understands that getting through it quickly is in everyone's best interest and make sure your wife understands that too. Don't **** around, go for the jugular, and do it quickly. The longer you let it drag on legally the worse off you'll be.

2) Record everything, document everything. Every word, every email, etc.

3) Start inventorying your possessions, debts, living costs, etc.

4) Don't be in a rush to move on. That's trading one problem for another. Just go enjoy your life.

FWIW, my final divorce decree was sent to the judge yesterday. My ex-wife was content letting her lawyer drag everyone through the mud. Both my lawyer and the mediator assigned to us were disgusted at the games her side played and the money it invariably cost everyone. A lawyer being a ruthless **** doesn't mean they're a good one. A good lawyer has their client's best interest in mind, not their pocket books.

Let me put things in perspective for you; let's say two lawyers and one mediator costs you $1,200 per hour. That $200 blender you're arguing over, it took 10 minutes for that to become a zero sum game. Keep a calculator handy and be aware of your legal costs as they rack up.

Well fellas, I don’t post a whole lot on here but I know some of you have been through the same situation. A little while back, I caught my wife having an affair. To say when finding that out was a swift kick in the dick would be an understatement. I had a feeling that it was going on for a while, but never had any hard evidence. Well one day she finally admitted it and the feeling I got was pretty devastating to say the least. I really don’t know how anyone could do that to anyone, but I guess I am wired differently. Anyway, we split up and filed for a divorced. So once we did all that, she came to me and asked if I would do counseling and I agreed. Well, after a few sessions I realized she will never change and I could never get passed all that she has done. It sucks, but what the hell can you do. Just wanted to vent a little bit because not any one of my friends have gone though this, so I have no one that can relate to my issues.

Nothing hurts as bad as loving a woman and her stomping on your heart like that OP. I have been there years ago. We all sin, but that is the worst pain. I feel for you man. It will get better with time. I will keep you in prayer.

A Girl I planned on marrying cheated on me. I'm a strong guy and don't let things bother me but, man that bothered be a lot. I hit levels of depression where I contemplated suicide. took me about 2 years to get over her and what she did. So it will take time. Just hang in there.
