Divorcee's: Would you remarry your ex?

Post Reply New Topic

^^^^No,he's not rich,he's practically living in a van by the river.A gold digger would have no interest in him,unless she had a thing for burn out tweakers.He does have a decent camper by a creek,if you don't mind having to move it when it floods. Once he was a nice looking man,but now he has no teeth and is fugly,courtesy of meth.

We split up about 3 years ago. Still not divorced. I wouldn't take her back, even though she's still technically my wife.

My marriage taught me a lesson: If you love someone and want to spend your whole life with them, then do just that. There is really no reason to bring the legal system into your relationship. My father and step mom were together for 15 years before they got married for insurance reasons.

Don't listen to me. I'm still a bit cynical at the moment

^^^ No, that's what I believe, as well. Turning a personal relationship into a legal issue just because the other person won't do things your way seems just as morally and ethically wrong as turning the same personal relationship into a boxing ring or a shooting gallery.

But if someone is getting punched and shot at, then bringing in the lawyers (and the police) is likely the only possible solution.

But unlike all you other divorcee's out there, I stand a good chance of getting to witness my ex's execution. If he lives through all his appeals and junk, but he may. Cockroaches never die out easy.

And no, I don't think I'm a horrible person to be looking forward to that. It's not like they are killing him for hitting me, it's for an actual murder.

It's not unusual for me to be the odd one out.

I've been married twice; initially for 14 years but only half that the 2nd time around. Both marriages ended rather unexpectedly (by me) and were triggered by communication failures exacerbated probably by my undiagnosed Aspergers.

I have no desire to be in any relationship these days but I can as easily imagine resuming either one of the marriages as starting another.

Well I would never in hell go back to my ex, I can tell you that.


In fact, I did happen to bump into my ex a few months back with her then-new boyfriend, while they were shopping at my job. Virtually word for word, here's the account of the experience as I described it to my room-mate and his girlfriend:

"kinda caught me off guard; it was around 9 PM I believe.

They were being helped in the Tool section, and that's when she saw me. She smiled at me, and I simply nodded to acknowledge her. She walked over to me (yeah, we didn't see that one coming, right?), said hi and all that.

Obviously convo was about as exciting as it's always been for us. I wished her the best of luck with her new kid; she lied, and told me her Dad was happy about it ( her nephew--my close friend--Tyler told me otherwise). I told her we're doing better with business, going on trips and stuff, and that I'm basically working, and doing business 'round the clock.

I....do think she and her man were trying to put a front on around me, because Tyler has told me that the folks said he's not a very nice guy; I will tell you though he looks like a poor man's version of your buddy (a close friend of my room-mate's).

And yes, she noticed the goatee; she said I looked "different".

She also asked me to re-add her on Facebook to keep in touch, to which I simply responded "I'll think about it" (translation: no way in hell, b!+ch).

I wished them well, and that was it.

I will tell you though: if I had to run into her, I'm glad it was at this point when I'm finally emotionally moving on with my life; it did make it easier.

should I run into her again, I'll thank her for helping me become a better man, and leave it at that.

But yeah, that was the....exciting experience.

Trust me, after the experience, I'm very glad I've moved on with my life.
