Oh, wow – @ru2bz46, I just choked on what I was eating! My friend, one day, you will find the one that is so worth it.
No, I don’t feel threatened by his and he doesn’t feel threatened by mine. I have a daughter with my ex, we remain civil, but that’s about it. I really do not like him and lucky for us, most of the time, he can’t be bothered to take time to spend with his daughter. He’s not a good influence on her, but she’s pretty grounded. She doesn’t pick up on the things we want her to run from – so not too many worries. As far as anything else, there is nothing. He cheated, gambled and lied. There is nothing left between us.
My husband’s ex, there is nothing there, either. They didn’t have children together, they never see each other. She used to call him, a lot. He asked her to really not call unless it was an emergency. She was calling him to ask questions about her car, about putting a new roof on the house and well, anything she could possibly call him about. She cheated on him – but here’s the twist. He wanted out, he took possessions and gave up the house (he did get a settlement) but he wanted the fastest and easiest way out of the marriage. He never looked back. The only reason I wanted the calls to stop, was because it annoyed him. I wasn’t worried about anything – just didn’t want to see him so annoyed.
