my exh otoh is about as far removed from the right man as it is possible to be

Yeah, but hold on after a few years they stop looking at your with such gleeful wonder, dont they?
And then they pick thier nose and eat it and leave skid marks in the toilet and somehow they dont seem so farking great either.

I was one of them cod.
He didn't thrill me as the article says.
We divorced within 3 years.

Much happier now with dp.

Pretty basic but really good point - why do people get married if something just doesn't feel right?! Who knows!

MascaraOHara · 27/07/2007 13:21

I really enjoyed that article.. I feel like reasing a glass to my right decision

MascaraOHara · 27/07/2007 13:23

what, why am I evil and hardhearted or why did I leave him weeping in waterstones?
a) because I left him weeping in waterstones
b) because I realised it wasn't quite honest to marry him whilst so madly in love with now-DH.

What freaks me out is that the comments on this sort of thing are always ragingly misogynistic. The one who says marry an Asian woman because they are not feminists - anyone else think mail order bride?

The comments people have sent into the times about this article. Mainly men, mainly angry men actually.
