Question for all - thought this would be interesting!

Why did you marry your exhusband? (or if you were never married to the father of your child - why did you get together - what did you see in him) (or if you were widowed - what is your story about how you married if you don't mind sharing)

Can't wait to hear the stories!!

We married the same man!! And had the same mother in law! AND Same circumstances - worked hideous hours - met at work.

I have learned that you really have to pay attention to their outlook on life and the way they speak to you - my exh has an outlook that has criticism and contempt. He is a workaholic and not really capable of emotional intimacy. And he has a selfish attitude - just like his mom.
