Default divorce help.... blaaa

This is it for the final time. I have been stressed and depressed so i have been avoiding this site for whatever reason.

Anyway. Anyone have some horrible divorce stories to share that would make me feel better about my mess?

One of us is moving out in the next wek or so (it will more than likely be me) but she is thinking she gets closer to 60% of our assets and will waive alimony (she used to make as much $ as me but lately has been making 1/4 that amount). plus I also have to pay child support.... ****ing great...

I have a decent lawyer but he wants me to stay put until papers are all signed, which is no fun for anyone and I am not sure the $ is really worth the pain. my stomach and head can't take much more of this...

any fun stories to share with me? and No I probably won't try to PIIHB before i leave...

Ten Divorce Stories To Strange to Make Up
http://www.cracked.com/article_17291_10-di...ge-make-up.html

Excerpt: A man was divorced by his wife after his penis extension snapped off during sex. Doctors in Voronezh, southern Russia, had fitted the special prosthetic when Grigory Toporov, 47, told them he didn't measure up to his wife's expectations in the bedroom. But she was horrified when the extension broke off during a wild sex session. He told his wife he would get a new one but she said she was fed up with his failures in bed and asked for a divorce.

if you have anything in your name(car/truck/motorcycles), sell it to a family member for a dollar to get it out of your name, if you have any firearms or anything of value that you want to keep, get it out of the house. If you have a joint bank account, you need to put some type of freeze on the account for withdraws. I know guys that their ex wifes cleaned out the entire bank account before they said anything about wanting a divorce.

NEVER EVEr EVER take a woman on her word that she only wants 60%, she'll go for more if she can...HaVE FUN

do what your lawyer says, but i don't think getting a separate place is that bad of an idea.

in regards to settling for something you don't think is fair, don't think about the emotional pain, think about how ####ed you will be if she gets all your sh*t.

Don't know what to say but just keep going and things will get better. My wife was in a situation with her first hubby where he graduated college, was a temp for ten years while pursuing his dream of being a sports agent while she paid all the bills and her law school loans until she had enough. She ended up losing most of the money she had been saving for her retirement and getting stuck with the full school laon bill because the court decided it was a marketable skill.

SO he took everything, she got the loans and she moved on. But then she got me so I guess it was a major win!

Do your best to put it past you and look to the future. And hey, if you need a new lady, I know someone that looks like a wad of chewed bubble gum with hair.

Be well, and take care of the kids.

Marriage has got to be the absolute WORST business decision a man can make.
