Oh that's of course true...I don't know of any male lawyers or doctors that dumped their wives after becoming sucessful enough to find a newer younger version

It took a few years for me to recover...I'll stick with my story: it's the "system" (laws, courts, Judges, court services, "Child Protection", attorneys, and the left-wing femi-nazi influence on these) that's broken, not women. [/B]

At the risk of fanning the flames, I'd say you still have some recovery to do. I understand your bitterness, but seems you aren't in fact over it. You merely have found a woman who is willing to accept you as you are (for now). You are generalizaing from n=a small number. Yes, the system has problems, and there are bad people out there. The reality is that for EVERY divorce there is blame to be laid on BOTH sides. While the scale can slide one way or another, it takes 2 people to make a relationship, and 2 people to break a relationship. A combination of poor communication skills, avoidance, naiveté and take your pick of various neuroses help make a difficult proposition (a sucessful relationship) almost impossible.
I've been through a divorce and another near divorce. I've also gotten to a point where I have some understanding of where I've been, how I got here, and how that affects my situation now and tomorrow. And blaming the "fem nazis" isn't going to help me be happy. ymmv.
