Dude, some guys get all the luck. This guy obviously was strapped with seven horrible women. Unlucky dude. Ha ha.
Marriage is tough. One study asked people if love was a choice or a feeling. They followed up 10 years later. The couples that said it was a feeling only 30-some odd percent were still married. Those that said it was a choice, over 70% were still married.
There's a lot of good to a great marriage. Kids are stressful, annoying, rude, disobedient, smelly and general jerks. BUT, man, they are fun. Being married makes your housing, food, overall costs go down (in theory). You can build wealth faster being married if you work together. It's fun having someone in your corner. It's nice having someone to bitch to.
I highly recommend marriage TO THE RIGHT PERSON, and the right person is someone that is willing to work as hard as you do at it. If they aren't willing to, then it can't work. Cut your losses, HIRE A GOOD LAWYER, and move on. It sucks, but it's all you can do.

I never suggested that anybody should not get a lawyer if the other party does. Believe it or not there are a lot of divorces that get done with no lawyer involved. In many (probably most) of those cases both parties are happy with the settlement.
All of that said, in my own situation it's pretty obvious that lawyers were going to become necessary because of my ex, so then I was going to have to get one as well. It is certainly not my lawyer's fault that my situation went so miserably. It was definitely a result of my ex.

I would think if there is no kids, the need for a lawyer diminishes. Especially if both husband and wife work. But if there are kids, I would never, as a man, go through a divorce without one. The rules are too nuanced and you could screw yourself custody wise if you don't have one.

Correct. And thank you.
I'm at a disadvantage. I don't know what old posters have changed their handles to. Sounds like you're one of them. And #bern is another.

Thanks, man.
It's trippy. I keep waiting for someone to pinch me and wake me up.
It's that good.

I'm sure you're already doing this, but make sure it remains as good for her as it is for you. As bizarre as this comment sounds, most women want more from a relationship than great sex. Make certain you know what her needs are.

Gawd. Not my wife. I take business trips to recover. Holy hell that woman doesn't let up.
And I love it.

Lucky man. I have a buddy who always told me the same thing about his wife, though, and now they are separated. She claims that he didn't pay any attention to her other needs. He's crazy about her, so he's working hard to figure them out now. He told me it never even occurred to him that she wasn't happy in their relationship before this crisis.
