I think this is bs. Seen it happen to many times. Once you do one thing to piss off the other thats it. Divorce is ugly and basically war once you enter the courtroom.

As Jerry Lewis once said, "You always love your family, but, sometimes you don't like them". In any divorce there is regret and it is not easy but there is another saying, "Time heals all things". Eventually, when you have moved on and your heart is healed, you could be friendly acquaintances. Somewhere down the road when there is more maturity you will see things more clearly and see him/her differently. Mmm

Surprisingly yes. But only if you want or need to. Yes divorce gets nasty & ugly, but if you have a forgiving heart & move on with your life, that person will not have the same influence over you.
Being friendy or corgeal is mostly important if children are involved. You must learn to agree to disagree. If you can do this, your child/children will benefit tremendously!
My ex & I have both remarried & we are all friendly. We have even coached a softball team together!
It's really all about what's most important to you!

Once you stand in front of the lawyers and start dividing things up it becomes almost impossible to be anything but cold after that.Once the trust is broken and the s**t hits the fan you can't go back.Love has been tarnished

My divorce was amicable. We agreed on the judgment and didn't have to go before a judge. We were friends for a while, but about a year we stopped chatting so much. He is now remarried and his new wife is jealous of me. I guess I can understand - I definately don't want him back - just still care about him - but she doesn't know that. So - it depends on you and your ex.

I dont understand why you couldnt. not every divorce is bitter. some couples get divorced bc it just doesnt work out. even when one person cheats the other person will eventuall get over it and they can become friends. So its not like its impossible for people who are divorced to be friends

My aunt and uncle where best friends, they just couldn't live together so they divorced and became best friends again.........in their case it work, it just depends on how much pain the people go through before they come out the other side

Rules of life: You can't bring the dead back to life, you can't mix oil and water, and you can't be friends with your ex. Exceptions may exist for a minute or two, but then it's over. My BS detector rings as loud as yours.

Me and my Ex-wife are still friendly with each other. I don't go hanging out with her or any thing (since I got re-married), but I don't have anything bad to say about her. I also care deeply for her and hope she has happiness in anything she does.

If there are children involved, you have no choice but to reach some level of decency and friendship. Otherwise the children suffer. I'm "friends" with my ex-husband... but only because of the children. He doesn't deserve my friendship any longer... but our kids deserve us being friends.

It really depends on how the relationship ended. For some people you are right, it is impossible.
