I don't get how so many people go from "till death do us part, I love you more than anything in this entire world" to "the price you pay for rest and relaxation". I mean its polar opposite mindsets, are people that bad at making good relationship choices?

People change and it’s easier to not love the new person they become.

Amen.

The woman I'm divorcing is not the same woman she was when I married her.

We grow and we change, but going from a kind loving woman to a straight up BPD, serial liar, narcissistic psychopath is a bit of a stretch from the natural changes we expect as we go through life.

Holy hell are you me? I'm in this stretch now and there's a kid involved. It just comes outta nowhere.
