I remember being married to that.

Been there. "You work too much! You never have time for ME!" *cuts back on work and income to be with her* "You need to do Better in Life! This sucks! Why can't we have nice things like we used to?!"

I could never understand why it didn’t matter how much I made we were always broke

Handbags, shoes, expensive creams...they all add up. Working for Beauty is a Bitch. But you get petted. *sigh*

I was told “I upgrade our lifestyle so it’s more expensive”

"Upgraded" they say. I enjoy the hand-made burgers I get from the local family diner, made with pride and care, far more than any of the 3 Star meals I ever had. Backyard steaks and "throw it in stew"? Delicious! We see "Good Enough!" very different than women.

Yep. My ex did the same shit. She eventually left. My life got better. Go figure 🤷🏻

We were arguing one night and she said “I want a divorce” my response was 👍 sweet let’s do this. She wasn’t expecting that

@RedskinsFan1981 When you said yes, what happened?

@RedskinsFan1981 She back peddled and I told her it was too late she said it

@RedskinsFan1981 By that point I guess you wanted out and she gave you that and that answer you wanted….. She regretted it I am sure…

@RedskinsFan1981 She did but I was just waiting for our youngest to hit 18 and I was out. He was 17 when they happened so I was all done

@DemarcoSteve @RedskinsFan1981 I’m waiting for our youngest to hit 18 too, but that’s in 16.5 years

@PMFG130914 @DemarcoSteve @RedskinsFan1981 Stay strong and good luck

That wine glass defied physics there at the end…

Okies...powerful story but no one commenting on how her wine didn't pour out her glass? Hello? 🙋🏻‍♂️

You haven’t read the comments if that’s the care. There are plenty of these people commenting

I've no time to read them my bad...didn't read yours either 🤭

This is very unreal. In real life she would have let herself go and gained 40lbs, be wearing sweats and crocs, and the house would be a mess.

Dude that sucks. I hope your doing better now.

It’s been years since the divorce

Yep been there… and thank god we wasn’t married

Smart man

Perhaps this is an unpopular opinion, but this isn't an "entitled women problem." I've been on both sides of this dynamic. The problem is the dynamic itself. Society should not be arranged so that couples can't spend time together because survival costs eighteen hours of your day

I told my ex-wife we were going to change cell carriers to save $1k/year, she flipped out on me. Post divorce I live debt free and she can barely make credit card payments...

The only reason I can think of a man staying in this relationship and being somewhat valid is he has kids with her. Anything different from that it’s separation. Her having a ring and no kids is not marriage, not even playing house, just two adults kinda fucking and you putting up your wallet

I know that feeling

Yeah man it sucks

notice it's all about what she wants and she ignores all responsibility and reality.

His labor bought that wine, couch, and clothing she is wearing but it isn’t enough

They don’t got gravity in they house, she turned the wine glass over and it didn’t spill

Ik for a fact my Ex’s current waterboy is dealing with this and I don’t feel bad lmfao

well I"m sure you know what trad/mano logic says to women who got shit husbands "you should've picked better lolololololol"

I had a financial disaster a few years back, really bad time. Literally had to problem-solve and I struggled to keep it together. All I heard from her was “Why dont you make time for us?!” “When are we going to our next trip??” Ugh… never enough!

Damn! Work in the modern civilized world. Bills in the modern civilized world. Relationships in the modern civilized world.

This guy is a loser. He needs to chill for 2 seconds and worry about the rest later. She should cheat on him.

Tell me you’re a simp without telling me

Acting miserable all the time doesnt make your problems go away. Youre a weak man if this is your reaction to trials in your life. My life aint perfect either but when something happens it is what it is. I still take care of my family and push forward. Social media creates this.

this is why i’m a virgin and make my own money. saves me from ever having to deal with low iq monkeys.

Most women don't care and never will. We are not loved We are utilised

Why didn't she spend that last two minutes building that connection?

Easier to bitch than blow

I'm with the chick. The obvious solution here is to call her bluff, pay more attention to her, and let the finances go to shit.

What is your the woman that builds the castle?

@Bro2027Brown The only thing my ex wife built was psychological issues with our kids and a loathing for relationships for me

@Bro2027Brown Get a home gym if you don’t already have one.

@Bro2027Brown I’m fine and have done the dating thing on and off. Sucks in your 40’s and 50’s

My girl & me both have careers. It’s not perfect but we’re both more or less in the same boat. And that makes our time together at night all the more valuable since we help recharge each other emotionally

Why would you stay with a person with this mentality will always be my question

Ditto. That was a life I do not miss.

I tried asking for help she thought that was too much and took her life

If she got a job, he wouldn't need to work so fucking hard.

They are both right you know... Relationships need presence and time together to work. And the lights and bills need to be paid. Both these things can be true at the same time.

Go to the prostitute it is more moral and beneficial for both sides

Brainwashing men into despising women. At least she wants her man around more than she cares about money. You men should be seeing that as a positive.

I would love a responsible husband like that honestly. It would be lovely to offer comfort and make a warm meal for them Talk about the woes of both our days and figure out times we can actually spend together. That woman sounds like she’s expecting him to make all the effort!

My life has never been better since mine left!!!! Couldn't be happier.
