The other day I e-mailed out a private article for a number of my readers.  It dealt with divorce and custody on a number of levels. Over the past year I've found many men are like me.   They are real men, yet they are involved fathers that in many cases take on the primary care-giver role like myself.   Yet something happens... we find ourselves resented and cast aside by "practical" women that really had no sense getting married if they didn't understand what true love is in the first place.  The only good news is that by divorcing us, you allow a good woman to take your place and appreciate a good man.

The bad news is it is a road that we men can almost never endure.  So many men honestly... don't have a chance in court against a woman.  Unless you have been in court before, unless you see the writing on the wall and take steps to protect yourself, or unless you just happen to be a man that performs all the primary care giver roles without question and plenty of proof of it.... Well, you end up like this man that replied to my e-mail article.  I'll call him Nick.  I asked for Nick's permission before posting his reply.   See for yourself ladies and gentlemen, men like me are not alone.  There are thousands of us out there.   There are possibly a million.
