ie:

Ex No 1: First Fiancee
Ex No 2: First Husband
Ex No 3: The One I Left First Husband For.
Ex No 4: The Soldier.
Ex No 5: The 7 Year Relationship
Ex No 6: The White Mercedes Van Driver
Ex No 7: The Professional Ice Hockey Player
Ex No 8: The 23 Year Old (I was 30)

Current: Second Husband.

Just interested to know other peoples's "titles" for their ex's if they have them. My friends and sister do it to.

I only had one long term relationship before dh. That person is referred to as "him"

Pinkjennybellrock · 12/12/2008 12:47

My dh's name is Mark, and my first fiance's name was also Mark. I call him 'the first Mark'.

I've had three fiances by the way, not ten!

Lauriefairyonthetreeeatscake · 12/12/2008 12:47

  1. The Freddie Mercury Wannabe/ The Control Freak
  2. Ex Husband/The Druggie Scum/The Bully/The Cockney Wanker/ The Male Escort
  3. The Ladyboy/The Tranny/The Recluse

The others have been too insignificant to even come into conversation now.

And my DP is called by his name, or Frazario, or Sunshine, or Kidda, or Lovely, Lovely Man

FleurLeChaunte · 12/12/2008 13:05

It appears I have much more lengthy track record than most on here .

I have an ex my parents still refer to as "Rat Face" and another one called "The Big Eared Tennis Player" but they are fairly insignificant to me so not mentioned previously in my list.

Second Husband is known as "Bear" (sometimes!).

"IT".

CatchaChristmasStar · 12/12/2008 13:11

Either as 'him' or by his first name. Every now and then a not so pleasant word may come before it though.
