Thanks people for your contributions.

My children are girls, very brilliant girls. Apart from their mother being a control freak, I think she is okay to take care of them. The major concern for me is that she seems to be naïve about people around the children. She tried to leave them at a time with one of her siblings to look after them, of course I didn't agree because its a guy, a guy that we drink together sometimes. She allows them go to neighbors house, for extended hours, to play which I have had to intervene in the past. And so many instances that we had serious disagreements. I cannot just imagine my girls left around potential rapists. My wife believes my mind is too dirty. I agree. But I have seen things that makes me suspicious of people and I don't want to take chances, especially with girls. If they were boys, I wouldn't even bother. I grew up on the streets and I believe boys must see ugly side of life.

I am thinking taking them with me and hiring a mature maid will work.

All your fears about your girls' welfare and safety are very genuine. Your wife, like many women out there are unforgivably naive. And it's worse when they don't listen to not just a superior argument but one from their lord -- husband.

You must see to it that your girls' welfare and safety are at the top of your divorce negotiations.

I am about to get divorced. Just wanted have an idea from people who have experience.

Are there things you wish you did differently?

Do you know that 50% of all first American marriages end in divorce while for 2md marriages is 70% and for 3rd marriage, it is 80%.

Yorubas say the broom that swept the first wife away is waiting to send the new wife too.

Please deeply. It's your personal choice.

I will tell u it is not fun. I have been there before. My question is who’s filing for the divorce, you or now ex spouse
Re: Divorcees, What's Your Experience Like? by Ellasure: 1:40pm On May 04, 2021
Divorce is not easy but sometimes it has to happen particularly irreconcilable differences and refusal to changes as they happen with time and children developments.

Believe it ooo, women are very close to cultural heritage and cultural practices. it is not immediately obvious when they are young and yuppie but immediately after child birth they come out with cultural practices they want to practice.

Divorce is like going back to your bachelorhood days as you have to take household chores once again and need new realignments of friends, relations, church members and possibly struggles to find a way forward to a new life without the ex.

You will have to talk less about the divorce to get a new direction and focus on the good future awaiting without the ex. Don't quickly run into the arms of emphatic girls or new lovers in the next few months in order to re assess what the future truly holds for you.

Let me add that you should forget about any feelings of victory over the ex or whomever but rather focus more on new beginning as a fresh young man out of school. Therapy ke, I don't think you'll need that except you need spiritual support from above as you did just out of school before you get the first job.

Hope I make some sense.

If you can’t stand the marriage again, i suggest that you initially separate for a year or two. If you are still convinced about going through the divorce, then go ahead. Marriage isn’t by force.
Note that is may take between 2 to 5 years to complete the process. It depends on the mutual agreement of both parties to divorce, the competence of your lawyers and the court you approach for the divorce.
Document everything going wrong in the martiage to make it easy for the lawyer to build the case and expedite the decision of the judge. Like executing a death penalty, Nigerians hypocritically make divorce a bit strenuous for both parties. Be prepared, because it gets messy and opens old and preferably forgotten wounds. BUT REMEMBER, A DEAD MARRIAGE IS BETTER THAN A DEAD PARTNER WITH A MURDERER.
If you have kids, the woman will be favored to get custody while you get access. You will be required to pay for child support. Nobody will force you to break the bank for child support. Just give what you can afford and is reasonable in the long term.
The kids are the biggest victims, so be prepared to sacrifice your anger towards your ex for their sanity. For their sake, comit to be friendly with each other. Prepare for the usual extreme politics from both parties to get love from the kids. Both of you MUST talk about this and avoid it... IT ONLY DESTROYS THE KIDS. It is not their fault that you are getting divorced.
Divorce becomes more complex if either party wants to relocate with the kid.
Lawyers will charge between 150-500k for divorce. If you as a man want custody, tell your lawyer on time.

In a divorce settings, the only way we guys lose, is losing custody of the kids to your ex.......my 3 beautiful daughters are my world and i lost custody of them to my ex........if it was to be the other way round and i was granted custody of my daughters i would have been the happiest man on planet earth.....i will not remarry and i will take good care of them and give them the best education and i will just have some couple of girl friend, just live my life and enjoy my freedom. SO MY FRIEND GET A GOOD LAWYER AND FIGHT TOOTH AND NAIL SO THAT YOU CAN BE GRANTED FULL CUSTODY OF YOUR KIDS AND DONT EVER GO BACK TO YOUR VOLMIT

Shokoloko:


One advice, whether you were right about the divorce or you were wrong and acted in haste, you are going to regret it. You are going to cry and feel despair/fear. You might want to call up the person and beg. You might want to call up your family and rant/cry
When that feeling of regret comes (it will come) DO NOT ACT ON IT. Lock yourself up: shout, scream, cry to make yourself feel better.

Do not go looking for a relationship with the OPPOSITE SEX UNTIL ALL THE FEELINGS HAVE COME AND GONE.
I honestly wish you have a support system. it makes it better

IT WILL PASS!!!

Divorce is an excuse for failure. If you divorce your partner, you have failed in life and no consolation you give yourself or anyone gives changes the fact. If you are incapable of managing a marriage till the end. You are more or less ... don't let me say what is on my mind. The other day, one fool was celebrating divorce certificate. another failed divorce woman on instagram was giving married and single ladies advice. like are you mad. what advice do you have to give for your failure.

Wait.

Are you seperated already?

If not I will advise you go seperate ways first then after a year or two you may proceed to divorce if both of don't see reasons to reconcile.

This option is 1000times better than going for divorce straight up.... EXCEPT THE REASON FOR DIVORCE IS INFIDELITY.

See in most cases, separation is what couples need and not divorce cos during separation both party will have time to reflect and reconsider but after a time of reflection, both parties may not proceed to divorce if they are very convinced that is the best option.

I wish I left much earlier. Only regret is my kids not growing up in a 2 parent home but so far I havent noticed any negatives about me not being around. I see them every other weekend and do parenting by Whatsapp video call. My daughter will rather video call me to snitch on her brother than go to her mum living in the same house with her.

I am also enjoying the peace and quiet of living alone. I have a new girl who wants something serious but I cant see myself trusting a woman again up to the point of settling down permanently with her. She go still f**k up las las.

You see that your last statement is the reason why in most cases divorce is never the solution.

Every woman has a monster in her and I'm not exonerating men but I'm talking about the women now...

If you like change women from now till eternity, they must show one or two traits that will make you wonder why you ever married them.. Laslas nah tolerance

Except for marital sexual unfaithfulness I honestly see no reason for divorce especially when you have children together..
