Wedding Forum - Ex hubby at the wedding....I think NOT!...

My ex has got a strop on! He knew the invites were out and is pretty disgusted that we haven't invited him or his girlfriend to either the day or the night do's! He said to me today that we are invited to his wedding so why are they not invited to ours? Well me I must say am a subtle as a sledgehammer and told him it doesn't work like that and I want people that I like there! I guess he thinks because I have him and her on book of face he thinks that qualifies him as a friend, erm....no! keep your friends close and enemies closer.....I like to know what she says about me (interesting reading sometimes lol she forgets im on her list)
His angle at the moment is that he will look after our children. He still annoys me when he comes to pick the children up! How dare he put the children through what he has put them through and expect to be friends with me? We lost our home because he couldn't help listening to his little brain instead of his big one (if you know what I mean)and as for her! well don't get me started!

She only wants my children at her house because her daughter is all grown up so she wants to play mummy, assuming she can get her @rs* out of bed on a saturday morning.

As for being invited to their wedding if they ever get round to choosing a date, well hate to say it but I can't stand there and wish them luck (they will need it, or at least she will) so it's best that I gracefully refuse that one!
Sorry for the rant.....still a bit steaming though

even though i get on with my ex boyfriend, i still wouldnt invite him. Some people may and there is nothing wrong with that. He is in the past for a reason and thats how its staying xx

I agreed I would invited my ex to me wedding!!

Both of them are from planet lala! It's almost amusing...she thinks we will be life long friends because she is the reason he left me and she has cried in front of me, lol fair swap I suppose. Don't get me wrong I don't regret a thing, she is welcome to him and the affairs that he has but the timing was lousy right on xmas.
I have tried to be pleasant to them but only for the sake of the kids and thay have mistaken that for friendship. As a couple they are known as the "drama queen and her pet" I think that says it all. I have to put up with him on a saturday morning when he comes to pick the kids up bleating on about some kind of rubbish and I even do the hoovering so he waits to continue what he was saying...just can't seem to figure it out!! Here for the kids now go away!

if i invited my ex hed prob try and stop the wedding right at the does any one know...... as im that great and fantastic that hed want me back.... haha only kidding i would dare dream of inviting my ex... even thou hes my sons dad... there getting married next year... i dunno we get on were matey and have a laugh when i drop my son off but i would consider him a friend or family... hes my sons family ... but still no i wont be inviting them

"Both of them are from planet lala!"

i have to say they are NOT from my planet in any way shape or form.

yes suzky it probably will be very awkward! He may get me arrested again lol x

ha he doesn't deserve it after 'listening to his little brain' you were so right. x

Oh, I must be the odd one out here! My ex husband and his partner are coming to our evening reception. H2B and I both agreed to invite them. However, I must stress that we get on extremely well, they come over to see the kids (big kids now, 16,18 and 20) and stay for coffee and cake etc. We go out for dinner together as a group on birthdays and things. Our split was quite amicable really and we have remained good friends, and H2B and him get on well, have got drunk together on a number of occasions and done the whole 'love ya man' and big man hug thing under the influence of too much alcohol. I think its brilliant for our kids that its worked out this way, as my youngest daughter says, its like she has 2 dads. So they will be there in the evening of the wedding and staying in a hotel nearby so they can party with us! It doesnt always have to be awful when there are ex's, we are living proof that sometimes it can be really good! And as for Facebook, friends with him on there, and his partner and its great because we can gossip about the kids, keep an eye on them and swap pictures! xx In your situation though.... tell him to butt out!

That is so nice Jane ;-) Our split was far from amicable, police were called and all sorts, I couldn't imagine anything worse than him being there either for the eve or the day. Even if he were he would be stoned and she would be having a drama in a corner somewhere urgh! the thought of it!

Thanks Mrs Walker soon :0), dont think I've ever been called a shining example before lol. Just to say as well, one of H2Bs ex GFs (he was with her when he was late teens for quite a few years) is also coming to evening reception with her new husband and her kids - we are all good friends as well! All happiness and love all around! Ha! His ex was lovely to me when we were first introduced and we went to her wedding last year too.

Andy ( my other half) wanted to invite his ex girlfiend ( his sons mum) to the wedding. I was like no chance!!
He wanted to so she could bring ayrton up, but i was like want he already be up?, and if she doesnt bring him up then she is being a b***h as she usually does one way of the driving (she usually brings him up - andy takes him back or vice versa as it a 3 + hour drive just to get from one house to the other). I dont think she will as she is nice and gets on with us, but that still doesnt mean i want her at the wedding, i am not inviting alot of the people i want to because we are trying to keep it to 60 guests so why would i invite her to take up seats?

I'll be honest I have no idea why an ex would even want to go to your wedding - its weird.
If I got an invite to my Exs (just boyfriend never married) I would definetly decline!!

thats really really nice that you are still friends with his family and lovely that they are still part of your life - but the actual ex thats a different matter in my eyes. it is strange that he wants to be there. and i agree with you there is no way i would go to theirs! wierd!

my ex bf commented on facebook ''wheres my invite?'' when he saw my engagment party comments, i had to invite him to are engagement party as everybody had seen his comment and then he never even showed up! cheek of it!!!!! Just ivite him to evening do he prob wont showup at least then he wud b in the wrong ;)

I have no intention of inviting him to my funeral let alone wedding! lol He saw me and our 3 children homeless and thought it was amusing because he put us there, then he wonders why I hit him...hence police being called!! lol no chance!
