So the guy wants to sell his ex-wife's wedding dress on Ebay, fine.....I don't have a problem with that. What I do have a problem with is the guy using what should have been a simple add, as his own personal forum to rant and rave about his marriage, in-laws, and ex-wife. No wonder he's getting divorced

"This dress cost me $1200 that my drunken sot of an ex-father-in-law swore up and down he would pay for but didn’t so I got stuck with the bill. Luckily I only got stuck with his daughter for 5 years." ~ Got stuck with his daughter for 5 years?? What was keeping him in the marriage for that long? If he was that unhappy, he could have left alot earlier than 5 years into it....or how about this revelation, get to know your partner before getting married . Marriage is a life-long commitment, it's not something to rush into and you should know your partner well enough to realize if marriage is the right step to take or not.

"Thank the Lord we didn't have kids. If they would have turned out like her or her family I would have slit my wrists." ~Gee, that's a real mature thing to say. Is this guy 15 or really immature? Putting someone down in order to relieve stress or frustration is not a healthy way to deal with problems. I'm thankful he didn't have children because he doesn't sound like the best father.

"Actually I didn’t think my head would fit in the neck hole, but then I figured she got her Texas cheerleader hair through there I could get my head in it." ~Yet another dig at his ex-wife.

"You may regret the dude you marry but not the dress." ~This is a fitting end to his add. After reading through his whining and complaining, he's the perfect guy to be giving out relationship and/or marriage advice.


I wonder how many times this guy approached his ex-wife to talk about possible problems in their marriage? I wonder if they even talked at all? It sounds like civil communication isn't his strong point. Sarcasm, however, is his strong point. It makes me angry to see someone have such strong feelings of resentment and disgust towards a person they supposedly once loved and wanted to spend the rest of their life with. Marriage is a blessing and should not be taken for granted.


Sorry for ranting. Relationships and marriage are a hot topic with me. My $.02 for what it's worth.
