Diogenes Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 I posted this in another spot, but I though we could use a little " living well is the best revenge around here" Here's my future letter to my ex wife: I got your email today and am sorry to hear that your trip to Tasmania to visit the guy you met Playing World of Warcraft did not turn out as well as you'd hoped. Not your fault I suppose, I mean who could have known the mansion he was living actually belonged to his Grandmother, not him, and she was in the process of kicking him out. I'd love to give you the money to fly back, but I know how much you value your independence and freedom. Speaking of money, my Columns I've been struggling to get published for the last five years have been picked up for syndication in 100 newspaper and five magazines, and a literary agent really likes the first chapter of my book. She thinks it has "Movie" written all over it, with George Clooney as the lead role. She also says I appear to be in amazing shape, and asked me if I was free for lunch to discuss my workout routine and maybe work on another book about "Fitness tips for Survival after Divorce". I had to tell her that it I would have to share credit with a wonderful fitness instructor, a virtual amazon who wondered how a great guy like me was single. We've been living together for the last six months, on top of being lovely to look at she takes great delight in doing for me all I used to do for you, you know like make you coffee and breakfast in bed on the weekend so you could sleep in, give you back and foot rubs etc. I'd like to write more, but I have a plane to catch. Since I won the 649 a week after our papers were final I decided to do all the traveling we had talked about doing when the kids were older (they send their love). I must admit I will be a little nostalgic barging down the Seine on that Gourmet barge tour without you that we had always dreamed about, but it's better that you followed your dream of a new love and independence. I wish things could have turned out better for us. When I said those vows before God and family , "For Better and Worse and Richer and Poorer" I truly meant them. I wanted nothing more than to spend my life with you until "death do us part". As much as it hurt me when you left, your happiness was all I cared about and if I was not part of that I would have to let you follow your heart. I'd like to keep in touch, but we will be out of the country for at least six months, I'll post some updates on Facebook. Signed Xhusband
andyg99 Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 that's pretty funny stuff... but in reality the perfect letter would go like this: Dear X, Just wanted to remind you that I only discuss matters about our kids with you, anything else I'm not interested in hearing or sharing. Regards, Your X

Regards, Your X PERFECT! Doing this protects you! It helps you move on and be totally and completely over her, in far less time than if you engaged her; with your sanity intact, keeping your self-esteem and experiencing no bitterness for your next relationship.
Josephina Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 Lol, you guys are funny! On a somewhat serious note - I was thinking of getting a specific email address for dealing with the X. I don't want our communications spread between my work, school and 2 personal emails - things can get fairly unorganized that way. I thought I'd ask him to commit to putting all our communications in writing to that specific address, so we can both keep proper record of things. Thoughts?

Thoughts? just set up a new folder and filter his stuff to it (on each account)... no need to make it more complicated than it should be! odds are if you do get a specific address he'll still use the other ones...

We don't currently email each other, so I thought as a way of getting things into writing, I could direct him to a specific email. I guess I could use an already existing email, but for some reason I just want to keep it separate. Of course none of it will matter if he doesn't actually email, lol!
