I’m NOT even REMOTELY trying to sound qualified or competent enough to offer good advice, but I have lived a lot and am also in a long , established marriage. The kids are grown ,and we’re empty nesters. If I can offer one thought, it would be this ; Take a look at your wedding photo, and remember the girl you married . Look at yourself in the same photo. Father Time, circumstance, tragedy, life in general beats the hell out of a relationship. You both are the same people as the two in that photo, but just weather beaten by life. Try to take a step back, and re access your journey together, where you started from, and where you are right now, and what got you here to this point . You’ll very likely find answers that you never would have anticipated. Good luck to you both , sincerely.
Thanks. I appreciate you taking the time to help.

Not trying to be a buzzkill, as we all come here for fun, but I'm wondering if anyone has done what I'm contemplating. I'm mid-50s, married 25 years, kids are in their 20s. For several reasons, I'm contemplating divorce. Has anyone in a similar demographic done it? How did it work out? We both have good jobs and child support isn't an issue, did you still get screwed financially? Any real-world examples would be appreciated.
You are fucked!

Some decent advice and some lousy advice. The most important financial consideration is determined by the state you live in, how much money you have/make, and what your personal financial requirements are.
My experience is that if you’re contemplating divorce, whatever you once had is gone.
I divorced in Texas at 53. She was costing me about 90k a year in extraneous expenses. Texas is no fault 50/50. I gave her everything and took all the bills. We were upside down in everything and this was 2007 when everything went in the shitter. I could have fucked her and given her half the bills, but our individual income was quite disparate, and she’d been a great wife for many years up until then. I felt no compulsion to punish her more than I already had by spending some lovely time with Sunset Thomas. Ultimately I saved money. Divorce cost me about 500k, but 90k x 15 yrs is saving when you utilize hooker math.
The thinking that caused the divorce continued after. She went bankrupt, lost everything I gave her, and killed her 800+ credit rating. I can retire to Thailand quite comfortably for the rest of my life whenever I get tired of doing what I do.

I, ______, take you, ______, to be my (husband/wife), to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, until we are parted by death. This is my solemn vow.
Marriage is an institution utilized by religion to control. Also initiated at a time when life average expectancy was probably 40 at most. To be socially relevant a marriage license should have an expiration and required renewal.
I might add an interesting post on a hooker board. :)

When I was married I never strayed, never cheated, this was before knowing anything about AMPs. Had some offers to play when I was married but I did not pursue them. Funny thing is, when I was young, single and not in a serious relationship I had sex with quite a number of married women, some were women one would never suspect of straying. I say funny because as a husband I stayed in my lane and remained faithful, but as a player, lol, I had no issue tapping some schmucks lustful wife.

Same here. Never cheated on my wife. No need to. She was everything I ever wanted in a partner, in and out of bed. She was completely uninhibited and wildly adventurous.
