Place for male identifying persons to share their stories without judgement and come together in support to bring each other up instead of tear each other down. "Alpha" males and other dumb ass made up shit will be dealt with. This is NOT a space to bring women down this a place to bring men UP.

You know how when you date someone, and it doesn’t work out and you can just cut them out of your life and move on?

I’ve come to realize I can’t do that with my ex wife. She has to be in my life, at least for the next 8-10 years. We have two kids together, and are co-parents.

While I appreciate that we get along when it comes to the kids, I’ve come to the conclusion that I’d be better off if I could just part ways and not have to ever think about her, her happy life in my old home, her new boyfriend who happens to drive the very car I’d always wanted to own, and there’s not a goddamn thing I can do but sit here like a fucking simp begging for table scraps.

I just needed to put that out there. Enjoy your evening.

My parents used to invite my ex fiancee over for family gatherings even after she had cheated on me. I can't pretend to know how much worse it is after 15 years of marriage but I can sympathize with the spark. I hope things work out for you better going forward. I'm having a pretty bad day myself

That would be the worst; especially because of the cheating.

Also, you know where to find us when you’re ready to vent.
