The legal ending of a marriage Urban Dictionary

When your friends were right... Urban Dictionary

An event that has become very common in today's society. Affects children more than adults-generally causes the parents to tell their children that "We're still friends" while talking shit about the absent partner and forcing the child to call them to tell them something. It is also the beginning of the introduction of a step-parent (aka demon in most cases) who feels it is their role in life to be a complete ass- all the freakin time. Urban Dictionary

Wow! not fun! Urban Dictionary

From the latin meaning to rip a man's genitals out through his wallet. Urban Dictionary

The same thing as a tornado someguys gonna lose his trailer house Urban Dictionary

A period at the end of woman's marriage where she becomes an emotionally unstable, gold digging, bitch with an unearned sense of entitlement. Urban Dictionary

This is what happens when the woman realizes that she can't completely change the man she married and thus needs someone new, fresh, and exciting. She knows that he has done nothing wrong and has tried very hard to be a good husband, so she will be very conflicted until she finds another man in which to confide her deepest desires. This new man will give her the confidence she needs to ditch her husband. "All you want is to be happy," the new man will say. This is a successful play by the new man to get into her panties. Lovesick and out-of-character behavior may ensue by the man in his incredible frustration. Fortunately for the wife, the system is stacked completely in her favor. Half of his savings go to her. She gets a protective order when he tells her what a bitch she is being. Her friends and family move in to protect her from her supposedly vindictive and psychotic ex-husband. The cheating is shrugged off as an afterthought. All is well in her world. Urban Dictionary

When two people are too lazy and fucked-up to work it out so they just get a divorce. also is way too common in today' society. people who have had or are going through a divorce will tell you that they have "done everything they can to work it out" but really they haven't becuase if it were true, they wouldnt be getting one. they will also tell you that it is totally the other persons fault, which is ironic because if they arent even willing to admit that they mightve made one little mistake, how are they going to admit more, and this may be the cause of the whole thing. and after your rents divorce, your mother will cry everytime she hears "love" and then expects you to be there for her when shes crying her ass off which is extremely hard cause you dont even want to be around either of them for the rest of your lives. mom will kick dad out and never even talk to him again. only through their kids. they call each other "your mother" or "your father". basically two incredibly fucked-up people taking the easy way out of things without considering the feelings or thoughts of children, parents, and other family.
