    When I split with my first husband, a "friend" (male) from work said to me, "I can't believe that you left him. . .he's such a nice guy! I always liked him so much!"

    To which I replied, "Well, he's single now so go get 'em!"

    Guess I have a bit of an attitude. . .

    I too got a lot of ignorant statements/questions when my ex and I split:

    "Wow - I always thought you were the perfect couple"....
    Yup - looks can be deceiving.

    "He's one of the nicest guys I've ever met".....
    Sure - you didn't have to live with him.

    "Who's idea was it to split up".....
    At least we agreed on one thing.

    "I saw him with another woman - is he going to marry her"....
    Why don't you ask him, or her. If the answer is yes, convey your sympathies to the woman.

    I know what you're saying - my parents adored their son-in-law. They - like so many others - never saw his "other" side.

    Also excellent!

    Death thought about it.
