I've been friends with a guy who got divorced in April/no kids. We have a lot of chemistry but he needs some time on his own before getting into another relationship. I want him to tell me about his ex-wife/marriage but don't know what the best way is to ask. Any ideas?

Electra fact of life is that he would probably appreciate an open minded ear to share his tale of marriage failure with. If you and he are close then all the better as he will feel a safety factor there. Although you may not be a professional counsellor as long as you have a good ear and are willing to listen I'm putting my money on the idea of him being more then willing to share his story with you. Often people want to ask but are either too embarrassed or don't want to be stepping on toes. But just as often people who are going through divorce/separation need someone other then family to talk with about what happened in a neutral environment. Be a friend (and maybe someday more) today and you not only will find out more about each other but may actually bond like never before. Best of luck to you both.

You could just come out and ask him but I can almost guaranty that you'll just get his side and she will be an evil 'B' that tried to ruin is life. LOL If you really want to know, then go ahead and ask him. I'd kind of talk about a friend or someone who's relationship went wrong and casually ask him what went wrong with his marriage. Like, by the way, why did you and ?? break up. If it's something that he just refuses to talk about, either let it go, or go to the county court house and get a copy of the divorce records. It's public record and you might have to pay a couple of bucks, but then you'll know. Good luck to you.

adult men actualy do no longer prefer to debate his failed marriage (being a devorcee myself) with very many people except he believes it relatively is worth conversing approximately. If he believes your relationship is going someplace he will carry it up,and in case you carry it up tred lite, IOW if he acts like it relatively is bothering him help him pass to a diverse subject.I truy wish all of it works out for you
