Why I'm happy it's no longer me...

[Katharine]

Hi all,
This made me laugh so I thought I'd share it..

My ex husband remarried this last Saturday.
If we go back 11 years it was our wedding. At that time he gave off a total "I don't care" attitude. I thought that I was maybe imagining it after all this time, well no...

Come Saturday morning he drops by to pick up the kids. He had just driven his future to the hairdressers - he couldn't understand why she wanted to do her hair or make up... anyway, he decided to drive his land rover down a closed road. If it says "no" he just has to do it. Of course his future said "are you sure it's open?" and of course he ignored her...
Halfway down the road, there's a pile of logs across the road - to stop idiots trying to drive down it - so he decides to see how good his landy is (he doesn't know how to drive it over such things) and perches the landy on the top. His future is, by now, hysterical wondering if they'll get stuck...

They did get to the hairdressers...
They did get married, and to top it all off, he sent me (his ex wife) a message half an hour later saying "It's done!"

I know the guy quite well, put up with him for 13 years....but I kind of thought "he must have changed", well no... Poor woman, I hope she knows what she's in for :lol:

Just thought it might make some of you laugh, I mean where has romance gone???

I'm happy to say my big day in October looks set to be far more romantic as we're BOTH really excited about it and looking forward to it, and planning the most fabulous party !!!

anyway, a really really OFF topic,
Katharine

Katharine,

Great story. Isn't it amazing how completely idiotic our ex's look once we get out of their world?

My ex is about as stupid. What he once turned his nose up at and bad mouthed he now does and acts like it is the most normal thing in the world to do and that I am just plain wierd or a snob because I do not do it. He calls to inform me who he is dating and all about them. While I am concerned who he is hanging with, it is only when he has the children with him. What he does the other time is fine by me, as long as he isn't bugging me.

I look back now and often wonder how our two worlds ever met. Do not get me wrong I am glad they did, at least where our children are concerned,but beyond that, what ever was I thinking?

As for the fact that your ex does what he wants, mine does that as well. The laws do not apply to him. If he would have seen the sign that your ubby saw and then ran into problems, my ex would have been right there cheering him on.

Oh well it could be worse, we could sill be married to them.

I do not have a ex-hubby however I have my " first love" we were together for 7 years. I loved his family and his sister was my best friend.

I just knew in my heart that it would be a rocky road relationship and I could not handle it.

Anyway, we still talk 28yrs. later. He is the funniest person I know. I am truly glad I did not marry him, but bummed out because I lost my perfect IL family. I still talk to them too.

The other thing is funny and let me tell you I ADORE my DH, but when we were dating and we were engaged the inside of me was "nanny nanny do do " I got him and you didn't . I laugh now thinking some of his ex girlfriends were probably feeling sorry for me:hehe: The IL not so much;)
We have stuck by it and grown to love each other more and more.

Nancy~I feel for you about your ex being w/ your kids. My sister went through this and it is heartbreaking all around. The good news is you are a great mom who married a wonderful man to back you up.

Katharine~ I am soooo glad that your eyes are wide open to your ex and that you have a great sense of humor.
Hugs,
Becca:grhug:
