     Fine. I'm pretty sure, though, you haven't seen what I've seen.  

     

    What kind of childhood did you have? How many times did your father lose half of everything he owned in a divorce settlement? How many divorce cases have you looked at? The legal files? The reality of what happens when two people decide they hate each other.  Maybe you dodged the bullet.   

     

    Misogyny? Not really. Just someone who recognized a broken system early on.  

     

    I won't go into too much detail, but in one of my very first jobs after law school, that's all I dealt with every day.  Divorced people. Divorced people who hated each other.  One time I counted the file cabinets. 75 file cabinets filled with divorce paperwork. And every six months, half of those file cabinets had to be emptied out and the contents placed in storage, simply to make room for all the new cases.  

     

    For me, it was just a job. They paid me money, I did the job, and at the end of the day, I went home. But I did notice what was happening to men, primarily. They were up against a rigged system. And for them, there was no escape.  

     

    One time, I sent a guy a letter about his divorce, and when he received it, he went into his back yard and blew his brains out.  I could sit here all day and tell you crazy stories, just from my own person experience.  

     

    One of my friends was once handling a simple divorce case. The man was not from the USA and didn't want to comply with a court order giving his wife custody pf his kids.  He wanted to take his kids back to the Middle East. What did he do?  He killed them all. Wife and two kids.  Problem solved? 

     

    If your life turned out OK, great. You dodged a bullet.  But I'm sure if it had turned out otherwise, you'd be one of the first people to complain.  

     

     

     

     

    yes ....   I expect any divorce can be very traumatic for both parties ,  and more so when big money or kids are involved. 

    You say it's rigged,  well I personally found the entire Thai judicial system rigged,   it wasn't a divorce case, but it was a lot of money and assets.   

    But it didn't surprise me in the least,   it just reflected & solidified what a FUP this really is.

     

    I think as you mentioned about the guy who shot himself,  and the other who killed the family,   it comes back to how we each can handle the legal separation and how it affects us mentally. 

     

    But,   the legal system also has alot to answer for,   they are partly responsibly for those two guys.   imo

    Ordered a set of men's shorts from them.

    Ordered size XL which is advertised as 31-33 inch.

    Items arrived and it is size 26 so not just a small scam (pun intended)

     

     

     

    Since I'm travelling overseas tomorrow, I quickly opened the return request.

    Great was my surprise that after you have filed the return request, the seller get FOUR days to decide if he will accept the items, which are clearly not as described.

    Contacted Lazada and explained my situation, but it is as if you are talking to a wall, because they just tell you to wait 4 days, and if seller doesn't respond, we will approve the return.

    Yeah right, I will ask the flight to wait for me 4 days. Never seen a platform where the scammer get  days to decide if you are allowed to send back the items with which he scammed a customer.

    To put salt in the wound, Lazada just emailed me that they have added tracking to the return request, so I know when the 4 days have passed and I can then proceed to ship the items back.

     

    Are they plain stupid or just a professional scam organisation?
