    I only browsed to see if using “services” would be cheaper than the upkeep on my ex was. It would be.

    This is quite the misogynistic take, dude. Did you marry only to fuck someone? People usually marry for many reasons beyond just sex. Love, companionship, shared dreams.

      No, I actually loved her at first. Then it turned out she only ever wanted me for money. Said she’d kill herself if I didn’t buy her things, threatened to divorce when we had disagreements, etc.

      We had 50 baby strollers in less than 2 years. She had over 20 expensive jackets and coats in one winter, etc.

      In the end it became kind of an inside joke how much cheaper a prostitute would be. Prostitute would probably have more feelings too. My ex doesn’t actually see other people as human, but rather tools to survive.

      I now drive a rusty old car. If I meet someone, they won’t think I have money. It’s better that way. Anyone can fake being a nice person at first. But if I don’t give them reason to do it, I’m hoping they won’t.

        Sad to hear that. I hope you meet someone better in the future
