A story of marital breakdown and divorce
A couple with two young children have a three bed semi in a quiet suburb of a small town. They have a mortgage and the property has forty or fifty thousand pounds of equity in it. They have no other major assets and the husband goes out to work to pay the mortgage and all the other household expenses while the wife remains at home to look after the children as she has done since the first one was born.

There is no family network near enough to help with the children and it is not economical to pay for childcare so that the wife can go back to work. She now decides that she wants to get a divorce. If one were being strictly equitable it might be expected that the house would be sold and the equity divided between the two of them. This is unlikely to happen unless the couple involved come to an arrangement between themselves that is acceptable to both. Even with modest assets (property, money, pensions etc) expert financial advice from a qualified person is essential in working through this most difficult part of the divorce process.

The courts and divorce
The courts are not concerned with what most of us may consider as fair when a couple get divorced. Their job, as laid down in very specific guidelines, is to consider the needs of those involved in a divorce. In such a case it will be found that the needs of the wife and children are much more considerable than those of the husband and it is almost certain that the matrimonial home be transferred to the sole possession of the wife even though the husband may have made all the payments on it.
The children and finance after divorce
Furthermore, young children almost always remain with the mother and this means that the settlement of capital and property to the wife can be disproportionate unless there are exceptional circumstances or the marriage has been very short lived.

Although, in theory at least, the law is equal for husbands and wives, where children are involved their needs are understandably put first and in such situations it means that the husband very often comes off worse when a couple get divorced.

"Legal aid and divorce
A husband's woes may not end there because if his wife has been in receipt of legal aid because she has no income of her own – having stayed at home to look after the children – then the husband will be paying significantly more for legal advice for the divorce. Solicitors and barristers can charge up to twice as much for private clients than they do for those claiming assistance from the Legal Services Commission who fix the amount that can be charged for legal services.
This can put pressure on the husband to make a divorce settlement on what may be extraordinarily unreasonable terms simply because he cannot afford to continue to pay for a specialist divorce solicitor or barrister to fight his corner. "



So yes all the above proves that women are gold diggers and divorce is done for fanicial gain and greed with little regard for justice and the children

I find that 99% of woman are not intrested in a man if she percieves him to have no money, what I mean, no house, no car, or lives in a good location, if the guy is poor meaning unemployed, in a low paid job, or a job that is low status (binmen get paid lots but you know what i mean). Also if a man is percieved to be cultured, then the fish does not bite. woman in general in the uk are gold diggers. I never met a woman who is other wised. Also lots of women and men unfortunaately are looking for the mr and mrs pefect, got news for you they do not exist. just my thoughts

the cheap shallow one's are the easiest to spot very early in any communication they always ask what you do for a living which is nearly always a womans buying question!!!


They think we are that daft to reveal our financial status to a stranger !!!

most of them want to know way to much information over the net before you even get to the date!

Mulberry4000: Hi I think the men on here must be desperate for a date as they are here to just agree with the woman but the facts out way anything they have said on this form

68% of women were granted divorce according to http://www.statistics.gov.uk/cci/nugget.asp?id=170
http://archives.cnn.com/2000/HEALTH/03/15/divorce.suicide.wmd/index.html

"Typically, the man is shocked at the news that he's going to be divorced," said Baraff, noting that women initiate the majority of divorce proceedings. "The woman has also been dropping hints all over the place for the man, but he just doesn't get it. He never thinks it's as bad as she does. He's lost not only a wife, he typically loses his children, home, and money." Go here and see how the CSA make men poorer http://www.onwww.co.uk/

"England is now seen as the most generous country in Europe for women getting divorced. The sympathy shown by English judges for women has attracted thousands of wives from other countries to London to have their divorce cases heard here."

"The divorce system and how it affects men
There is no doubt that men are often seriously disadvantaged by the divorce system as it stands at present although there are indications that this is gradually changing. Seven out of ten divorce petitions are instigated by women who usually cite unreasonable behaviour as their reason for getting divorced. Many men (and women as well) are taken completely by surprise when they are told that their nearest and dearest wants them out of their life.

The financial aspects of divorce are often the most difficult and stressful to deal with. Perhaps the best way to approach this is to get expert advice on your divorce finances as early as possible in the divorce process.

Legal costs and divorce
It is often the case that a non working wife will be in receipt of legal aid while her working soon-to-be-ex husband has to pay at least double for his own legal costs because he has to fund his divorce solicitor from his own pocket.

A good number of men come out of the divorce process feeling angry and embittered at what they perceive as the unfairness of proceedings that may have forced them out of the marital home while continuing to support their children.

Care of the children after divorce
The wife is more often than not given primary care of the children and the husband may well lose regular and meaningful contact with them. after a divorce.

The feelings of anger and bitterness can be exacerbated if the wife has had an affair and the husband places the blame for the marriage breakdown on the wife. He may well feel that this perceived fault should be taken into account and be reflected in any arguments about the financial settlement in the divorce.

Childcare, residency and contact are other areas where men can be seen to be disadvantaged both during and after divorce, with seemingly little account taken of a father's need to see his children and to keep in close contact with them. Tales of women manipulating and denying contact to fathers are, sadly, not uncommon and the courts appear disinclined to assist even where there is clear evidence that fathers are being unfairly treated."


Desperate for a date? Not quite fella, just that most on here don't agree with your views.. Maybe you've been f*cked over in the past but is it right to tar all women with the same brush? It's like a woman saying all men are cheats.. Same principle.

Mulberry4000: Hi

.....I find that 99% of woman are not interested in a man if she perceives him to have no money; what I mean, no house, no car, or lives in a good location. If the guy is poor, meaning unemployed, in a low paid job, or a job that is low status (binmen get paid lots but you know what I mean). Also if a man is perceived to be cultured, then the fish does not bite. Woman in general in the UK are gold diggers. I never met a woman who is other wise. Also, lots of women, and men, unfortunately, are looking for Mr. or Mrs. perfect: got news for you they do not exist....


So, first off: you are semi-literate as there are a multitude of spelling and grammatical errors in your original post. And you have either no job or a low paying job. You probably have a low status job as well. And you are not interested in the cultural aspects of life: the arts, music, literature, etc. So, I wonder, just what is it you think would appeal to a woman?

A woman who wants as a partner a man with a good job, a man who has some finesse, who is intelligent and interested in life and culture, who can read and write decently--this is a woman who is a gold digger? No, this is an ordinary, average woman who does not want an albatross hanging around her neck.

flans: here a tip..for the guys...if you meet a girl,,,listen carefully,,and remember how many questions she asked before asking what you do for a living,,,the longer down the list,that question is the better,,if its question number one,,do a runner
Asking what someone does for a living, or me, is not about how much money he makes. It is about if he is an interesting person, a hard worker, a responsible person.

Obviously you never gone through the CSA or the family courts system, or investigated what happens to you as a man when you go through these systems.


The statistics speak for themselves, and the evidence is massive. It cannot be hidden any one who goes through this will come out a different person. And yes i tar every one with the same brush until I see other wise.

I find every one i meet me are only intrested in one thing, what can i get out of him, or he is not this status or he has no car or no etc etc, basic materialism. I when you meet enough women who do this and say this, you kinda get a straw sample of what the population of women in the uk are thinking. Now I have no reached the 2,000 min for a poll to be significant and my views can still be challenged but mate protect yourself because i am telling you this. U have a massive chance of loosing not only your mind, but everything you have worked for. If you own a home, do not let the woman move in, as she may try to take half of it when she leaves, i know this will properly not succeed if you are not married, but in turn if she lives there with you and she get the police on you she get you kicked out of the house, however if you are not married but have a kid to her she will get the home and off you go to bedsit land. Get a prenup that will help. Protect your money, and keep your life private from her in way finance is done. the old saying is more truer today than it was when hulme the philospher said it 400 years ago. " keep your enemies close but your friends closer".

thanks for the ad hominem attack, if you cannot read it why post. Yes they are gold digger, yawn flawed argument and save your insults for the chimps at chester zoo. Aah but women want to be albatross around men's necks, the women who do this in my view are nothing but slappers and whores no different from prostitues.

Don't you mean "Keep your friends close but your enemies closer still"?

I don't think asking someone what they do for a living automatically means you're after their money. It's just another topic of conversation, the same sort of thing you ask someone if you met them in real life.

I am quite sure there are a lot of women out there looking for a meal ticket, but just as many men taking advantage of women, we all have to be careful.

I'm not a gold digger. I prefer a man with a nice personality and who is easy to get along with rather than someone who has loads of cash, big house, flash car etc. If I had to decide which one of those 2 I had to pick, it wouldn't be the rich guy thats for suresad flower
