(giving as much background as possible) my husband and i live nearby (10 min. by car) his exwife and teenage children. she communicates with him more than the children do and this is on the increase. because i moved to a new country in europe to marry i have no friends here but rather have just entered their group of longtime friends and family. she is still very close with his mother (informing her of his health, etc.) and is at every party we attend. this weekend past she spent an hour filling his ears with her tale of being somewhat drunk at a work party and stripping and dancing on the table and how this got her in a little trouble at work...(think europe, not u.s.) and how she and her younger boyfriend had split up and what should she do....yadda yadda yadda. so last night she calls him supposedly (they speak their native tongue which i am learning but cannot yet interpret one half of the convo) to tell him that she and her boyfriend are back together, oh joy, yadda yadda... am i STRANGE??? but I have to ask myself if she and her boyfriend are back together then why isn't she talking to HIM and not her ex? i wholeheartedly support things with the kids, but after a shopping trip with the group of us my back hurt from all the stabs so I've decided to wait on that one a while. Anyway...I don't see this going in a good direction, help? BTW, my ex lived over the BIG SEA so I cannot tell my darling how he would feel if this were him (but i don't think he'd go for it at all!) Last thing: she was fat when they divorced and thiiiiiiiiiiiin now.

This seems to be a growing trend here on Frappy. Alot of folks come on here and post about how close their spouses and their ex's are.

My question is.....

Did you think he would just drop that side of his life and any friendship they may developed? Trying not be mean here but that side of his life did exist and it just won't go away because you married him.

Yep it would be annoying. Why I would think long and hard about marrying someone who was divorced and with children. You know the ex-spouse is still going to be in the picture whether they are friendly or not.
