I don’t think Simon wants to propose to a vagrant.

Nope. I've no contact with her, she's not on my FB etc, and of course I've remarried and had a child since. It's just that that marriage caused me considerable emotional and financial pain and I realised that the one remaining thing sitting in a drawer upstairs is the old ring, and I could get some 'recompense' by selling it and enjoying the money in some small way.

LOL Tim - that's awesome!

That they are going to need to try harder, right?
The Evo forum really is a shadow of its former self. I remember when the internet was for the elite and now they seem to let any spastic on

If anyone wants to write a cathartic, 'why my wife was a bitch' essay, I think I speak for all of us here by saying we need the entertainment.

On a similar note, this Reddit thread is a riot.

I'm not into slating people I knew on the internet like that. It was just a pretty abusive situation that took me an enormous amount of strength and support to get over.

Yeah I'm not going there. There's not enough 1s and 0s left on the internet to do it justice.

Hmm, I have kept my own situation but I split about 18m ago and it’s been tough, this has prompted me to dig out my wedding ring and I see palladium is worth a lot more than gold..

Time to sell it :)

My ex-wife went to prison after we'd got divorced. Not before appearing on Cowboy Builders on telly, though. I may not have got along with her but I don't think she was a criminal when we were together :lol:

Kudos Jobbo, prison is a few rungs higher than any of my exes feats.

I will have been married for 19 years this April, I wear a wedding ring and I would say that by and large, we have a happy marriage.

Am I DIW?

Also re the "ring keeps ladies at bay" back in my taxiing days, two larger young ladies got in the car, a little the worse for wear.

L1 " Hey, you're cute, do you have a girlfriend?"
L2 "giggles"

Me ~ waggling my left hand between the front seats to show off my wedding ring

L1" OMG you've got 5 girlfriends?"
L2 laughing uncontrollably" He's married you twat"

It did make me laugh but not as much as a few weeks later when they got back in the car, drunk again, and L1 asked "Can I be GF no6" :D

I also have had lucky escapes before finding one that I can put up with. Or, more to the point, she can put up with me despite my obvious perfectness.
