Hi Maybell,

I do not know too much about your history with mr. Fantastic, but if he's like all the spouses here, it's not about you.

Anyway, I have been lurking on a dating site and I read the profile of a divorced man saying that he still has a good relationship with his ex wife because she is the mother of his children and because she is a good person and he will always care about her and that there is no drama they just couldn't make it work.

This bothered me tremendously. They had kids, and made a commitment and they couldn't make it work despite no major drama???? His profile indicated (to me anyway) a man that was not capable of doing real work to keep his commitment. I could understand divorcing so eone that cheated or had substance abuse issues and abandoned you, but his profile revealed to me that this guy can't handle real work.

I guess I would want to know, why did they divorce in the first place? What does commitment mean to him? This might be important because kids get attached easily.
