my lovely girlfriend of ten years stopped by tonight to take a twin bed up to her grandmas house

I hope you at least got off the couch to help load it up

When you get tired of being immature.   No judgment.   Just like any phase of life,  enjoy the hell out of it and make a change when it gets old.

Bud I work with just found out his wife was leaving him - Went on a bender for a few weeks, ignored multiple warnings, and got fired.  Was really good at what he did before this.  Very sad

A guy at my work had an ex wife run up a ridiculous credit card debt, left him, and he basically cracked, got fired, went bankrupt, etc.

Someone said they ran across him a year or so later and he looked like he was in a lot better shape, but damn, was that a depressing story.

Do they have any use for a queen size bed and an entire bedroom furniture set?  How about some televisions?

Hi guys.... So um...I officially filed the other day. :Ugh:
Just wanted to get that off my chest. Hopefully it will go smoothly (or as smooth as can be reasonably hoped for) but I'm not holding my breath.

Sorry to hear that BAC.  Hopefully it's as painless as possible.

Sucks, sorry BAC. 

Any advice you might share with much younger BAC?  I'm always curious to hear the wisdom borne through life experience.

Um... My advice would be to trust your instincts. Obviously, as with all big life decisions, you might have doubts or second thoughts before making such a big decision but really do some soul searching and be honest with yourself. If it's just nervousness that's one thing, but if deep down you don't think you're making the right decision then man up and put an end to things. To continue and just hope things will get better just makes everything worse.

I feel like I'm too immature to get married. When do I grow out of that?

Marriage #2 if you are one of the lucky ones.

"Mess" would be putting it nicely

Document everything from phone calls, emails, and in person interactions.  Trust no one but your lawyer.

I wouldn't think divorce would be that complicated if you don't have kids or own a business. It probably is, though.

If i'm tired of going to all these family get togethers, can I get something in writing that if we hit per se 15+ family get togethers in over a year, it's grounds for divorce?

It depends. If she signs the waiver then it's very simple. If she choses to contest it then... Well who knows.
