Anyone else hate to admit you're divorced?

Thanks for sharing BeenThere. Your story does indeed sound like the classic WAS-MLC cases so prevalent on these forums. Appears as if he is somewhat of a mess in that he is having issues with his gf and sharing them with you! I am not sure how I would handle that one.

LWB,

also don't want any wives I meet thinking I am prowling for their husbands. Make sense? I admit before this drama, I judged divorced women. Even more than divorced men.

I have read that as well. I find that hard to believe, but you never know. I do know that as a married couple my social calendar was booked out two months (we are both outgoing, love to entertain, and would travel to see friends or family). It is difficult being the third wheel, and, I guess people who are married do not want to fear being depressed around divorced people (I guess like some people may not know how to act around a recovering alcoholic at a drinking-related event).

Regarding the judging - I find this interesting, because I am sure that in the back of my mind I too judged divorced people in some manner. How do you think you judged divorced people, and why the wives more so than the husbands?

I realize that though I will soon be divorced, it is not something I even remotely desired, but, regarding being judged, who would know that?
