My brother many condolences on the lost of your mother, thats forever changing... if you are close with moms, you lost your most trusted source of truth.FDR 1933 "We have nothing to fear except fear itself".... Not so lucky my brother... lost my Mother right before the pandemic. Lost a few Family members to the pandemic too. So perhaps I'm trying to regroup and not crumble under the weight of it all.
Part of the issue is these women hear different stories and believe it applies to themselves. This is what causes the positional thinking, and also causes women to believe they should continue to live their prior life style after repudiating the men. That is, I don't like you, I just want your money and the lifestyle.
One of the things I learned after my last relationship..... I cant really worry about what everyone else is ingesting. There are women that dont get that narrative. Many of them are not living on social media, reality TV etc.
I have never been married and now after 45 and Ive done ok for myself, Im not going to put myself in a compromising position where I have spent bunch of money and more importantly my time. I do always say dang I should have married XYZ, then I be like nah I would miserable like the majority of my married friends...
Sorry back on topic..... Get your attorney game up, talk to her about an amicable way to end your relationship, if not..... Man throw money at the divorce and bury the ax in here and keep it moving
