to be fed up with the number of threads about my ExP, my exDH, ExW ex ex ex -

[thedolly]

doesn't anyone stay together anymore?

People are unlikely to write threads about their completely happy relationship.

I'm sure the Ops of said threads are rather fed up with their situations in most cases too.

Very sympathetic

Well they might but if you are concentrating on finding threads that annoy you, you probably won't see the others anyway.

I for one would love not to have to put ExH in posts, but unfortunately I have one and impacts on my parenting as well as my general life

what kerrymum said

thikn the divorce rate is quite high, almost 1 in 2 marriages break down, so YABVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVU

and silly

HTH

what KM said
what a stupid op

You have the same lack of compassion as my ex dh, sorry for the irony.

I for one am delighted that your relationship is fabulous.

I never planned on having an ex, so didn't plan ahead, and sometimes, just sometimes, when I cannot see the wood for the trees, I need the collective wisdom of MN.

Thankfully the majority of MNers appear to have more compassion, understanding and tolerance than OP.

Fraid it happens OP. People don't generally come on here to tell everyone about their perfectly happy relationship which is just chugging along nicely thanks very much.

You could just opt out of the Relationships topic.

Why don't you point out that all those have been bereaved are being unreasonable as well?

It is not something I encounter in RL - none of my circle of friends are divorced/separated.

don't forget the parents who dare to post about their problems.......how dare they think this is a forum for parents

Well there you are then TD, your have the answer to your OP.

How dare people have exes? In THIS day and age?

It's very inconsiderate.

moth, flame, troll, piss off

i doutb any friends would tell you of their relationship woes if that is your attitude

It just means that there are always a whole bunch of threads that I can't contribute to.

Doesn't anyone (in the spirit of my opening post) just get divorced/separated and move on?

Peoples lives seem so cluttered up with complications.

Im annoyed by all the threads about peoples "DD's".
None of my friends in RL have daughters, we all have sons...
same thing?
YABU

Of course you can contribute.

They move on, yes, but alot of us share children with our ex's, so unfortunately they are still a part of our lives.

i would not contribute with your lack of empathy

gawds sake

you sound really selfish.. how dare those awful people have those pesky marriage break ups, and even worse, need advice !!

I refuse to bite....

I do want to say that I am so happy for you that your relationship is currently thriving and I do hope it continues to do so. God forbid you ever end up with an ex, but hey knowing you, you will stick with it regardless because you are cut from stronger stuff that so many. Even should your partner be smashing your head in, being a despicable parent, snorting nasty substances up is nose or worse still sleeping with either or both of your parent. You shall resolve to stick with it and good on you. That is afterall what marriage is about, through the good and bad.

[not passive aggresive at all]

divorce is usually complicated

houses to sell/buy/rent out

children to care for jointly

jobs to be found

maintainance to be sorted

visitation

if there has been violence or abuse, there are all the issues with contact for children and court hearings.
