Great story. Very thoughtful, thx for sharing. Props for standing your ground as a trader, and kudos for finding new woman. Well played. You sound like an interesting, smart person. With principles.
why do they do this. just move on yeah... edit: oh shit, your story was you choosing trading over your wife... so in effect you "let her go" as well. So I guess some women really don't like being dumped.
Are you sure... You should ask my ex. To be fair, I am the one who wanted the divorce, it upset her and it took her nearly a decade to get over it.
Sure about what? That there are two sides to the story in a divorce? Or that usually both spouses have at least some fault for the failed marriage? What would you like for me to ask your ex? It sounds to me that you are saying she was pissed at you for initiating a divorce. Some people come after you when they are angry. Why do you seem surprised? Maybe she took the marriage vows seriously? I don’t know. Shit happens in life. Things change, feelings change. Marriage is for suckers. I never bought into it.
Marrying the right woman is worth 10s of millions of dollars. Marrying the wrong woman is -10s of millions of dollars.
Right, according to her there is only one side at fault. I don't know if marriage is for suckers. I think that men go into marriage too lightly, too much "hope".
Marrying the right woman is worth 10s of millions of dollars only if she comes with 10s of millions of dollars. Come on, man. You are making me think your wife reviews all your posts. The right woman doesn’t insist on marriage. She will stay with you regardless of the legal status of the relationship. She doesn’t cajole, threaten to leave, give ultimatums, etc., to get you to include the state in the relationship. Marriage only makes sense if there is a legal advantage for it, such as for immigration, tax planning, medical POA, etc., or maybe when children are involved. Kids are unable to understand concepts like legal fiction. They just want to fit in with their peer group.
