Today, I got a call from an ex, demanding to know why my Facebook relationship status was set as married. I got married a few months ago, and I quietly explained this to her. My wife overheard and now thinks I've been cheating all along. FML

Today, I checked my facebook, and my wife of 5 years was listed as single. I then write on her wall that it is ok to announce to be married. She writes back saying that we have to talk and to come to the kitchen. My wife divorced me over facebook. FML

Misplaced fury

By Anonymous - 27/10/2023 15:00

Today, I was visited by a high school friend who lives in another state. She was furious because I got married a few months ago, and she kinda had feelings for me. I had to ask her to leave. Here's the funny thing: she's been married for 4 years and they have a son, and she didn't even invite me to her wedding back then. FML

Unless your wife has serious self-esteem and jealousy issues, you can still explain it to her.

Should have been rude about it. That way, you don't have to worry about your ex and your wife will feel good that you "really told her!" Besides she is an ex... who care? Tell her your heart was able to somehow move on and you found someone you love and actually want to marry.

They should be fine with it. If they are so insecure as to be bothered by you having a friend who is your ex then that relationship is not going to work since they obviously don't trust you. They don't have to necessarily like your ex but they should have enough trust in you to not be overly bothered by they situation.

Your "Ex" has no business 1.) Calling you, 2.) "Demanding" to know anything. YDI for not telling the "Ex" 1.) Not to call you anymore-ever, 2.) It's none of her concern/business in the first place, 3.) and to get the f*** over it b/c you two are no longer together. The wife shouldn't be so suspicious, but you can't blame her for being pissed.

I have friends many friends who I was involved with at one point or other and my boyfriend has no problem with this and he never has. It is because he trusts me enough to know that there is nothing going on between me and them any more and that's the way it will stay. I would have the same feelings if he were friends with an ex of his because as you pointed out they are generally exes for a reason even if that reason wasn't a bad one.
