Someone posted that they can't get along with ex's. I replied but realized my experience can't be that different, can it? The what happened is: When my ex-wife remarried, I am the one who gave her away. Obviously there is more to this, but how many of you have had better relationships with your ex after splitting?

We split for a reason, best to keep it that way.

I get along fine with my ex. I just don't care about what happens to him beyond how it affects our son.

My relationship with my ex is still good, but I wouldn't call it better.

My kids grew up calling my first wife Aunt Alice, she lives on the far coast, we all get together whenever when we travel and exchange gifts on holidays.

I get along "OK" with my ex husband. We've talked on the phone in the past. When Im in town, I've stopped by to say hello, but it's a very tenuous situation. He is a very sick alcoholic. And well, nuf said.

Never had a post-marriage relationship. Wife #1 was mentally ill and never lived independently of the mental health system after we divorced, and never had any interest in our children or me. Wife #2 died.

Now and again I hear of "amicable divorces". My present wife had one of those with her ex, until he remarried, and then the all-too-common dynamic of the jealous new wife played out and in no time at all she was embroiled in a nightmarish situation that I could spend pages writing about.

I would imagine that your situation is pretty darned rare ... and you should be grateful for it!
