I'm curious. If you use that to clean up a mess your dog made, would that be holy shit?

It's hard for me to understand the level of hate some ex-married couples have for each other.

"Holy Water" is Irish slang for moonshine.

If that's a feeling that you can't wrap your head around, you should thank your preferred deity.

It’s because of intimacy.

It's usually over child support/alimony/the house or the kids themselves, who are stuck in the middle.

I lucked out twice on that. We never hated each other because we didn't go through any of those things.

They're both deceased now, so that's that.

my ex and I didn't have any children. It was a clean break; though I had to sue her 2 years later because she didn't fully follow the agreement in the decree.

My "darling ex" took me to court because she "deserved more" than what was agreed to previously.

My favorites expression is now "request denied".

Short version-- every time she brought up an issue, I would either have pictures or a piece of paper with her signature stating she received item "X" on a certain date.

The Judge would check everything out and then say "Request Denied" . My brother told me everytime the judge said that, she would look angrier and slump even more in her chair.

My best buddy got divorced around 1980. They had one son, who was about 2 at the time.

The lawyers especially drove him nuts. He told me that he toyed with the idea of making a pi pe bo mb and throwing it in their office. He didn't, of course.

The angst between them has never let up to this day. If on the rare occasion he mentions her to me, he won't even say her name, he'll say: "Yeah, and last week 'Billy's mother' was going to . . . "

This is not a shot.

You never will unless you experience it. I never have with my ex. My son who is now 40, his mom and I have always remained on good terms.

For the most part, I feel Counseling is bullshit. I've known several friends over the years. If you are going to marriage counseling and the counselor has never been married, you're and idiot. Same with child counseling when the therapist does not have kids. They cannot help if they cannot relate.

One of my favorites I have seen firsthand is at funerals. People coming up with good intentions saying their condolences and "I know how you feel!"

The **** you do! If your family is intact to include parents, siblings and kids and all, you have no fkn idea how they feel.

first marriage, we dated for 4 years. Marriage didn't make it to the 3rd year.

I got very ill... she moved out. I was eligible for alimony... SERIOUS !

Instead, I got the house, everything inside except for the bedroom furniture, and my 1980 Corvette.

Had my transplant 6 months later and got a new life; met Yvonne a year after the surgery... been married this time 42 years.

I LOVE EX-WIFE JOKES.
