So my ex-wife (the ice princess as i affectionately refer to her) worked with a woman who was going through a divorce.
IP (ice princess) was best friends with this woman.
So, we are married about 6 months, and my wife starts really treating me like crap, comparing me to this jack ass that her friend was divorcing. I am nothing like the guy, so she would get pissed about very minute details, taking the discussion/fight about them to an unbelievable level of retardedness till i would finally say "f" it, and just stop fighting with her.


So here's my question.
Why did my ex wife let this situation with her friend ruin/dispose of a pretty decent relationship with me??

ho's before bro's

What the hell.....that answers nothing

what responsibility do you have in the demise of your marriage?

cant help you there,when a woman starts on stupid sh!t like that i'm thinkin,TRAINWRECK,so its buh bye!dont need to be compared to someone else,im not them

Im with that so many men think that they are in a pretty decent relationship...........but if you ask the woman she usually has a different story.............I think that men are more laidback and can dismiss things that go on in the relationship but women we, are used to remembering everything good or bad and we dont FORGET............

Miseery LOVES company. She obviously sided with her friend over HER husband, that's how I see it.

You deserve so much better than that.....

Better she goes now than waits 10 years and then does it. I don't know why, just be glad it's over.

I think it takes other people voicing their own discontent for us to begin to voice and act on our own problems sometimes.

Then again, some people are prone to jumping on bandwagons and rallying around someone with a cause. It is easy to begin to see a similar cause in your own life...even when it doesn't exist.

Jealousy can play a role in some cases too. If he/she is not going to put up with that BS, then neither AM I! What they may not stop to realize, before becoming indignant and righteous, is that the person they are taking their inspiration from may be overreacting. Or maybe not...in which case please refer back to the first paragraph.

i have always known this to be true a relationships worst enemy is a woman's best friend because whatever they are going through your stuck right there in it

yea got that little Rolodex in your brain when something goes wrong that thing starts spinning

Not enough information to say anything definitively, but if I had to guess, I'd say she clearly didn't think the relationship was as pretty decent as you did. Her friend's mess gave her a sort of reference point, and the similarities in the situations may have outweighed any differences. Maybe she perceived her relationship going in the same direction as her friend's?

It's impossible to say without knowing more, and without hearing both sides.

My suspicion is you're better off without her anyway....

mighty good show i like it

PERFECT!

JustAGuy - you're asking the wrong forum, when in doubt seek response/answers from the source JMO

Well, in real terms, it could mean that she was talking to her friend, trying to support her. In doing so, she may have discussed what her friend disliked about her friends husband, in turn had her thinking about her own relationship. That caused the argument with you because you may have done some of the same things and she was just realising that it was bugging her about you.

In typical human behavior, it caused an argument, instead of talking it out like a rational person.
the argument was the cause of the decline of your relationship and the inability to find the root of the argument. It is also the inability to talk through disagreements because you get frustrated and walk away instead of taking a break and coming back at a later time.

Well said! I've also seen some people throw away good stuff just to play the martyr. Can't understand it; I've spent most of my life trying NOT to be one.

I agree with this answer. I went through this my ex-wife is one of those people that has to "fit in" and is very easily influenced by her so called friends.Granted I take my responsibility for my errors but these people (her coworkers) kept the negativity going and going.Misery loves company almost every coworker she has is divorced and miserable and a few have numerous children with all different fathers.Real smart taking advice from them huh?
