Chapter 1: Why does Dave's wife want a divorce after 23 years?
I've been married for 23, almost 24 years, and my wife told me just a few weeks ago that she's leaving me and she wants a divorce.
I'm sorry. Me too. What I'm going to say next is not popular, and it's just real as I can possibly be. Is that okay? What in the world is going on in your life today? In your head, in your chest, in your relationships. I'm John Deloney, and I'm the host of The Dr. John Deloney Show, and I'm so grateful that you are with us.
Talking about your mental and emotional health, your marriages, your parenting, your kids, your schools, whatever you got going on in your life. Here's my promise. I'll sit with you. Sometimes we laugh. Sometimes we cry. Sometimes we just sit in silence for a second.
But I'll sit with you, and we will figure out what's the next right move for you, for your kids, for your marriage, whatever you got going on. If you want to be on this show, this is real people, man. This is as real as it gets, going through real challenges. Give me a buzz at 1-844-693-3291 or go to johndeloney.com slash ask, A-S-K.
All right, let's roll out to Arlington Heights, Illinois, and talk to Brother Dave. Hey, Dave, what's up, man?
Hi, John. How's it going? I'm a little nervous because this is serious. I'm a little emotional. I've been married for 23, almost 24 years, and my wife told me just a few weeks ago that she's leaving me and she wants a divorce. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Me too. And she won't talk about it. She won't consider anything. She said there's no point. And that's it.
And ever since then, it's been like waking up to a nightmare every day.
Is this a grenade pin that she pulled out of nowhere? Or have y'all been struggling? Has she been struggling personally? What's the challenge?
It is a grenade, but she has been struggling, and she's been struggling with perimetopause. Okay. And I've been trying to do whatever I can, and we got her one of those tests. She's tried a few things, and she's just wildly unhappy in general. She's been unhappy for a long time?

Chapter 2: How should Dave navigate his wife's sudden decision to divorce?
Our work, our personal messages and communications, we buy most of our things on the internets now. It's where so much of our lives exist. And because so much of our lives exist on the internet now, it's become normal to just give away our email address to random companies who then turn around and sell those email addresses to other companies. This is why I'm happy to use and recommend Delete.me.
I looked at the reports my friends at Delete.me have sent me. They've reviewed over 35,000 different data brokers with my personal information, and they've removed my personal info from hundreds of scammy data broker sites. DeleteMe has saved me countless hours, days even, and they've sent me detailed reports throughout the year showing me exactly what they've removed and from where.
I want you to have this kind of peace too. So we can't really avoid living on the internets, but we can make our personal data personal again with DeleteMe. Get protected with Delete Me today and get 20% off all of the Delete Me plans. That comes out to less than $9 a month. Go to joindeleteme.com slash deloney right now. That's join, J-O-I-N, deleteme.com slash deloney.
All right, let's go out to Sasquatchian. Is that how you say that?
No, that's just Saskatchewan.
Sasquatchland. sure go with that Sasquatch Obi-Wan Kenobi Canada and talk to Ryan what's up Ryan hey Dr. John what's up brother not much I've I've heard worse pronunciations of that I would break your heart to tell you I taught geography for a few years for high school kids I was what was wrong with the Texas education system, but such it is.
What's up, dude? Well, I don't blame you. It's okay. We're a long way from there.
I don't know how to pronounce. Okay, that's all good.
All right, so what's up? So my question today is, how can I overcome bitterness and resentment towards my wife's career choice?
