AIBU?
AIBU to consider this too passive-aggressive for Facebook and put it here instead?

Potential status updates I have considered posting today and decided against because they are clearly passive-aggressive and far too personal:
Happy 3-year single-mum-iversary to meeeeeeee!
It's my 3-year single-versary! Who's going to take me out? Eligible bachelors, please form an orderly queue.
Celebrating 3 years of having the wool pulled from my eyes!
If your husband seems like a wanker, it's probably because he is.
It's the May bank holiday plus half term - must be my single-mum-anniversary.
Celebrating the 3-year anniversary of the weekend when my life imploded!
If your life is going to implode, avoid the May bank holiday - nobody will have time to watch you cry.
It's my 3-year single mum anniversary - celebrate with me by
- not rolling your eyes and changing the subject when one of your single-parent friends briefly refers to the fact that all is not hunky-dory.
- inviting a single-parent friend on a night out/over to dinner.
- asking a single-parent friend how they are and meaning it.
I'm really not bitter. It was just a very difficult weekend three years ago.
Phew, that feels better!

well done you! and FWIW you dont sound bitter. you sound very happy to be 3 years on from a shit relationship. happy singleversary! 
and i do like your sense of humour.
if it makes you feel any better i have recently had to restrain myself from asking everyone on my FB to please find me someone to shag

i'll be 3 years free in august. i think you have inspired me to embrace it and celebrate it and if i feel like it- post a status saying so.
also, i dont think anyone woud have given you a harsh reply. and if they did then they dont deserve to be on your friends list.

I found a photo of my daughter in my office today and I suddenly felt such a powerful sense of emotion and rush of love. Pure happiness. I have a lot of problems that he has dumped me with but in so many ways, I am rich. So are you and all these single mothers here. I raise a glass to you all. Now where's that photocopier so I can copy my bottom? Cheers!
