When you asked for a divorce, did you feel it necessary to explain your reasons to your Ex, especially if you left them for someone else?

You absolutely need to provide an explanation! You can't up and leave after so much time and love invested without explaining why. Take whatever shred of respect and sense of obligation you have for your soon to be ex and use it to really give clear cut reasons as to why you're giving up. It's a MUST!

No, I was not going to be wasting my time doing any explaining. He already knew all the reasons because I had been trying to get him to work on some things for years before I finally got the nerve to leave him. He never asked me why, never asked for a second chance or anything. He didn't even want to know where I was staying or anything. So, I thought if he had that little interest in what I was doing, then he really didn't care that the marriage had failed. I have now been married to my second husband for 5 years and he is the nicest, most loving person I have ever known, so I am happy (finally) and much better off.

I initiated the divorce because we had been married for 16years and we were basically roommates. He worked at nights alot and never wanted to do anything. When I told him I wanted a divorce I explained just that. I was tired of being a single parent even though we were married and tired of feeling alone all the time. There was someone else but that was not the reason I left..never leave for someone, but leave because of someone..best advise I can honestly give you is, if your interested in someone else get the divorce first..it will save everyone alot of pain...believe me i know.

Most of the times, they already know the problems. Why would you want to stir things up? If the ex needs more details as to why you left, let them ask.

I didn't feel the need to ASK permission for divorce I just filed. The reason was IN the paperwork.

Yes, you have to be totally honest in your reasons for leaving. They deserve to know the truth so they can deal with it and get the closure they need and move on with there life.

He just went home to momma after 12 years and two sons. He didn't even tell them goodbye. He didn't have to tell me why. He couldn't keep his zipper up around boys.

Sometimes, there's no need to state the obvious.

No. I just left and served him with papers.
He knew why.

I think that is the least you could do.
