on the plus side, if there's resentment between ma and an ex, i find it can help to make a clean break. sounds horrible, but it's true! you see them less, you move on to someone else quicker!

I think people do this alot. It's a bit like the way on I Love 1994 people say "what was I thinking" about 2 Unlimited or something.

do boys really get impressed by girls slagging off their ex-boys? I'd just think "bloody hell, don't want to go out with her imagine if we ever split up!". Just as well girls seldom have to resort to impressing me really.
and erm of course i'm a firm believer in ever lasting relationships so the thought of splitting up would never cross my mind, much like the thought of sarcasm.

quote some horrific/hilarious example of their behaviour I always wonder why they went out with them in the first place
well cos when you first hook up with someone they pretend to be a lot more palatable than they really are. then you wake up to the fact that they don't have a personality (despite the fact that nobody does, and we're all a bit foolish to believe in such things as "personality" to begin with). you know, it all comes down to humans being a bit thick. slagging off exes allows one, for a moment, to feel that long periods of devotion to a dipshit haven't been an entire waste: you have the enjoyment of being able to laugh at them and pretend that they aren't doing exactly the same thing to you. to be honest, theres only a select few people that i don't slag off. ever.

i guess there must be people who have exes they still like as people, and are friends with, but we never hear from them! also, it's weird that despite the fact that most of the people here are of above average intelligence, their choices of mate may not reflect this!
so, is there a correlation? book-learnin = lovers-spurnin!

more fool you for going out with them.
this, essentially, is why I avoid slagging off exes.

As for the three serious girlfriends since (I was with each for 2-4 months), I have nothing but good things to say about them, and I value the memories of our relationships.
