Religion...pure and simple. His religion and my lack thereof.

I only married so as to deny my lunatic family from inheriting my estate after I dropped dead from an asthma attack. I survived after 7 days in a coma. My brain is mostly back. Tho he is still alive, he is lost in the opioid epidemic. Thanks doctor Kuppy.

After 20 years we just grew apart, we tried to keep it together for a few morr years, it just didn't work out

Never married but, I did love my children’s mother. I came close to marrying her, even though I’m not sold on contracts between monkeys...

I left her only because I’ll never subject myself to her dynamic, “you’re supposed to” list. I don’t want to be near her when she starts trying to “manage” me. She wants her way-often...

I spent approximately 19 years of my life in prison. I can’t stand being “managed.”

I’d say several factors came into play, our communication styles no longer worked for each other, so it was harder to tell each other about some of our expanding differences. For years, both of us had professional jobs, hers did require long hours and high commitment, so I had to shift my time and expectations to pick up my share of the housework and parenting duties. However, things reached a point where I was expected to provide extra emotional and physical support for her, and it was too much of an ask for someone like me, because I’m very systematic, but she saw that as an idiosyncrasy.

We eventually hit a point where I was feeling isolated by having to move to another state and start another job without other professional or personal contacts in the area, in a neighborhood of very religious people (so questioning center-left voices aren’t exactly common), so even making new friends was challenging because of work and family. And yet with any attempt at trying to speak up was
dismissed, so my ex finally decided to ask for a divorce in the middle of a period when she had the idea of going into consulting for herself. I did not fit into those plans, between her perception of my reluctance to fully participate at louder parties and her perception that I was going through a midlife crisis because I had the audacity to be exhausted and even exasperated at times with what I was being asked to do.

No shaed vision. Neither marriage

I seem to be the woman that dishonest jerks can pick out of a crowd.

He was a racist and an unemployed nurse (LVN only) for the last 3 years of our marriage. Only reason we were together 9 years was because I knew I needed to work thru the anger before I filed or I’d be dead. Our son, who was 9 at the time, thinks so, too. He also decided not to talk to his father any more when he was 12.

Because I finally woke up.

Because my spouse was a sociopath.

I continually dismissed the fact the woman was mentally ill. When in her right mind she was so loveable.

I never wanted to be married in the first place. It just took me 20years to address it.

My first wife had sex with so many truck drivers that she could have gotten a teamster card. My second wife didn't like my son. Deal breakers.

The Marriage concept is fundamentally flawed. My first 3 they became believers of a mainstream god, the fourth followed the god of methamphetamine. They all attempted to convert me, however, I failed to assimilate.

Alcoholism and verbal abuse to go along with it.

To say we grew apart is an understatement. He grew more conservative and religious and spent all his spare time with his hymnal website. The kids tell us we should have called it quits years before.

Because he was screwing anything that moved?

I think because she was verbally and physically abusive, that's about the size of it.

ask my lawyer, only £60 per hour !

We weren't in love and never should have married. She wanted to marry me because all her friends were getting married, I was successful and she wanted to stop working. We married on the condition we never had kids. She begged me to have kids after 5 years. She never loved them either, they were just a means of keeping her claws in me. Eventually kids and I left.
I married her because I had not dated much, had no idea what I was doing, was very immature and young. I had just turned 20 when it was all organised, she was a few years older.

My ex was the female version of Cletus Kasady.

Breakdown of communication

She decided she wanted a man who was home more and not working two jobs to pay the bills. Found out she had been auditioning my replacement for two years.

Which one?
