QFT?
I agree with you, but people can get divorces for all sorts of reasons - for example, maybe her partner was unfaithful.
All the story says was that they met when she was with someone else. In itself, that's not controversial (though the story makes it sound ornery, for sure).
So if a woman is with a man before and leaves that man (for a reason that is uncontroversial - his adultery, his abandonment, his abuse, for example), and then winds up becoming my companion, that doesn't mean the same set of facts will present themselves again.
I can have a wonderful fulfilling relationship with that woman (then again, maybe not). Millions of people leave bad relationships and start better ones with different people - it's not uncommon at all.
She isn't hard on the eyes, but no great prize either. That rock climber is a lucky guy - he better hang on to a special lady like that!! HAHAHA (as I chomp on my cigar and enjoy a good laugh at the couple's expense).
That may be the case - and here new ex should have known better - BUT - she certainly should not have received one red cent - the divorce, as far as I read - was 100% her fault, because of her infidelity.
Stupid, just stupid.
She got what she would have got (more or less) whether she was faithful or not.
If he had cheated on her, I don't think he should have lost every dime he owned. Just divide the marital property and each party can move on.
Those days are long gone. The correct move is to put all your money legally in a LLC, and then form a trust controlling the LLC. Your employer, ie, Microsoft hires your trust, and you're an employee of the trust drawing a $25,000 salary. Your house and car are owned by the LLC. You have no personal assets, but you have access to anything in disbursements at your discretion. The wife is entitled to NOTHING in a divorce other than a portion of your salary.
"Trophy wives" in reality are no better than two bit con women selling their goods to the highest bidder. With the LLC, you can drive Porsches and live in mansions, date a playmate, and she'll get a few pennies in a settlement. When she presses for marriage, watch the reaction when you inform her your true financial status. It's a great facial expression to observe when a con artist is busted. Why anyone would marry an american women is beyond me, but if you must, believe in the trust. Payback is a beeatch.
Yeah I know, its depressing.
I've thought about teaching myself Japanese and moving there.
Most of the women there are still pretty honest and old fashioned, however through Japanese culture.
Still less risky than an American woman it seems :(
Still single. And hating it.

adultery is the most selfish thing a person can do and adulterers are the most selfish people in the world.
