Usually that’s what happens when getting divorced with kids and she makes less than you, not exactly fair especially if she initiates it and 70% do

Homeownership in the us is like 70-80% female

Yeah because of divorce, that’s the only way they end up owning homes mostly

What's the actual question here?

Divorced man paying Alimony & Child support so ex's new man can live in his house? ↗
Sorry

Ah! Ok.

Well, I think it’s rather a heartless take on the reality of second marriages. Some do seem like that, others don’t.

The important thing is not to parade a string of new partners in front of any kids involved… and not to force a new partner on the kids. It’s why many people choose to stay single after a divorce… to spare the kids all this.

Personally, I didn’t ask the ex for anything. I plowed through on my own and struggled. Ironically, so well he tried some sneaky things to get my place and access to my salary long after we split. What saved me was a really good legal mediator and a judge who saw right through the situation.

So… tossing all the blame on the woman may have seemed accurate in the 1970s-90s, but today women are just as susceptible to being taken advantage of. (Actually, precedent for that was set in the mid-1980s.)
