    So sorry, but in a lot of cases, what you are doing, works out best.

    My son and his first wife just couldn't make it work being married, but they are now best of friends. They have both remarried and are very happy. I'm so glad that it worked out the way it did, especially for the sake of their daughter, and they share in all the decision making concerning her.

    Best of luck to both of you in the future - wherever life's road may take you.

    It's a shame things couldn't work out, but it is very admirable you're keeping the friendship. Kudos to both of you for that, and best of luck.

    I'm very sorry to hear that, but while it's sad, it's very admirable that you will both remain friends. I also think it'll make you both happier. Good luck with everything, both of you.

    My heart goes out to you both. I know even though you are parting
    as friends I know this must have been a painful hard decision.
    Sending oodles and oodles of hugs.

    I am also sorry to read this post, i remember your wedding, and usually if you are great friends in the beginning it really helps a marriage to work, are you sure you are ready to give up? i guess you know what is best for your future, i wish you both well, and hope that your friendship will remain intact. GOOD LUCK.

    Alot of us remember when you guys got married and it's sad to hear this. As others have said, no matter what you do, sometimes some things are not meant to be. I never stop saying that everything happens for a reason.

    It is great you can still be friends. Best of luck to both of you.

    All the best to you both as you continue on with life's paths which will keep rejoining in some aspects. God bless you both.

    So sorry about the breakup but keeping things on a friendly basis is the best possible thing you can do. I see couples in your position, great friends but can't live together. Sometimes splitting up is the best for both and for kids if it applies. Wishing you lots of luck.

    My ex and I divorced in about 82, I insisted it be a friendly divorce because there were kids involved. We had the revolving door policy for the kids, they could spend one night with me, the next with their dad or do weeks or none. We left that ALL up to the kids with the understanding that communication would be going on often as to who was where and when.. It worked out beautifully and we are still friends to this day.

    It confuses people when there are weddings, graduations etc and they see us together, always whispering "I thought Marie said they were DIVORCED?". Everybody is always surprised that we are such good friends... Heck, why NOT? He knows me better than any man ever has, we shared a lot of good times, a lot of bad times.. we just outgrew each other and neither one of us saw the other as a "bad" person. You just grow apart and see things differently. That don't make either of you right or wrong.

    I have never understood WHY there always had to be a big blow up for someone to break up. Adults should be able to say "this isn't working for me anymore and it is time to move on"...

    Good luck to you and your soon to be ex. I hope you and he continue to be friends as long as me and my ex has.
