I know how that feels actually. I am still legally married but been separated for 4 years. It is not a problem. Obviously they are not still an item, so there should be no need to worry!
Exactly! You are the big winner of the day! I was testing people to see how they felt, You know this. So do many that are seperated or whatever. The reason I posted this, is because even though I'm divorced. (big financial mistake there) My girlfriend isn't. So what? They have nothing, They never did, hence the seperation. The only people this would truly bother, are those that have jealousy issues, or are extremely God fearing.
So, we were sitting here and my ex calls. No big deal....we've been seperated for over 5 years....we both knew it was over when it was over, however we still talk because my kids were very close to him. It's not a big deal. I've just not had the cash to file the papers, nor has he....
The funniest thing was when he asked..."how do you like your new place" and I said..."I love it" Then he asked..."how do you like your new boyfriend" and I said..."I love him".......
Being an ex doesn't always mean bitterness and hatred.....sometimes people just know they can't be together but can continue somewhat of a friendship......
I told BND, from the start, where I stood on that..........it's never been an issue.........
What! You mean you are still Married? Right, it's no big deal. in fact we are going over tommorow to pick up a dresser, that should be interesting. All I was trying to do with post, is to open some eyes to the fact, that just because someone is just seperated, doesn't mean they have feelings for their ex. As far as I'm concerned, If someone tells they are done, then they are done. It's great to be upfront and honest always, but I never asked, she offered.

I've been seperated for 1 year now... Be and my ex get along well with occassional bump here and there. If you are divorced, weren't you seperated at one point as well? That's the question I find myself asking. I talk here my ex is fully aware of that. We were and are friends first and foremost. Just can't live together. he dates and tells me about his girlfriends. One day we will be divorced. Does life stop because your not. Well I guess if you make that decision.
