[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a person listening, I prefer “Larla’s father” or “my ex-husband.”

“My ex” feels kind of hostile. It would make me mildly uncomfortable as the listener. [/quote]

I say my ex. I don’t want to even add husband to it. It’s much better than “my cheating, lying ex”. I’m hoping my hostility eventually fades over years but it’s hard to say a respectful word about him now[/quote]

Thank you finally a woman who dumped her ex cheating husband without having to be apologetic about it.

The first couple of months post divorce with people very closed for me I used to refer to my ex wife as "the slut". Men would laugh about it but women not so much. Now almost a year later I overcame my anger and hurt and I find myself referring to her mostly as "she"[/quote]

Referring to an ex spouse no matter what happened as a derogatory name makes the other party seem bitter and angry and people won't want to be around them. I know a woman who referred to her ex as "the sperm donor", "[other language word for dumb-dumb]" and more. She was very hard to be around.[/quote]
You need to have more empathy for a person who may gone through the biggest betrayal and tragedy of their life.
