My girlfriend is close friends with her ex-boyfriend (1 Viewer)

Why do boyfriends and girlfriends get dogs together? That's always been weird to me. It's like adopting a kid together. Why would one voluntarily set up these awkward circumstances?
Except it's a dog. Not a kid. Racistex and I got a dog while dating. I had no problem identifying it as her dog though. When we broke up I never expected to have some odd visitation rights or something. Because, you know, it's a dog and not a real human.

 
what blows my mind is you that dont think that when he goes into YOUR house while your away, that he isnt flossing his sweaty chode with your toothbrush

 
And you guys give me #### about a shared cell phone plan?

It's just dogs, people.
Some us consider our pets as family, and we love them.

Seems pretty hypocritical of Woz to say that considering the image of him and that dog thats been burned into my retinas years ago that I can't shake. Out of the almost 15 years Ive been on cheatsheets.net, there isn't another person on the board that I would recognize if I saw them in person for the first time. That includeds several posters who I'm friends with on FB.

 
Your statement that an adult woman cannot handle a common life experience on her own, and that she needed your rescue, your intervention, your riding in on a white horse, and that you readily accepted that role ought to give you pause and ought to concern your present girlfriend.

The whole lot of you having the views you do on animals suggests, how can I say this nicely, since I do like and respect you, lets say an inexperience which belies your chronological years.

It freaks me out when you get all serious.

For the sake of you, and Flapgreen, I will attempt to restrain myself and concentrate on scatological and gynecological humor.

 
I know many people here thought it was super weird that he still had a key to her place (myself included), but it actually does make the whole dog exchange process much easier from a practical perspective. He almost always picks up the dog when me and my girlfriend are out doing something together, so he almost never sees her when picking up the dog.
He's jerking off on her bed while sniffing her panties.

For his sake let's hope he has a decoy tooth brush on the counter.

Got to love laundry night.

 
I don't usually throw around terms like "soulless" or "heartless" or "disgusting" but anyone who can't find love in his heart for a dog should be beaten half to death twice.

He is so sniffing those panties when they are gone and he's picking that dog up.

If it had been any other life experience involving the ex's job or housing or legal problems, I would have never even considered getting involved. I am definitely not trying to be a white knight for the ex. The only thing that I care about is my dog's well-being.

I don't understand why some people seem to think that ensuring that my dog receives life-saving medical care is somehow a sign of immaturity.

In general, this is true. That being said, I do believe Buck said his ex has borderline personality disorder (or at least shows plenty of signs) in which she very likely does need that outside help. Considering the alternative is leaving his dog's fate in the hands of someone with the emotional development of a child (common among BPD sufferers), I wouldn't give him too much crap for this call.

 
Thanks a lot for all of your thoughts and good wishes. The vet is just starting the surgery now.
:fingerscrossed:

And just (continue) to ignore the fishermen. They love to stir the pot and try to rile you up in the hope that you'll meltdown and provide entertainment.

That and they're insecure.

 
I've been beating your ###, hard.

But best wishes for your dog. Nothing on this planet deserves more love than a dog.

Full recovery, doggy!!

 
I love dogs but when I broke off my engagement, sacrificing him was a no brainer. I'm was not about to "share custody" of the dog. I broke it off so I would never have to "share custody" with her with ANYTHING.

 
So I remain facinatecd by this joint custody of pets after relationship separation thing. A thing, I note from this thread, which is apparently common.

Each of you and your current partner seems to have a half interest in attachment to a dog from a former relationship. You now are each exposed to these half-interest dogs. Presumably such exposure means that you can form emotional attachments to these pets. If you then break off the current relationship does this give you a quarter interest in the pet to whom you have formed an emotional attachment by virtue of this just terminated relationship? Do you and her ex now arrange play dates for you with the dog formally shared by you and your ex? Does the same go for your ex's. Are they now bound, potentially to each other over the dog once shared by you and your first ex? How many generations of relationship does this go on?

The norms of your generation are strange to me. Not wrong, just very strange.

The vet just called and said that Tucker's surgery went as well as it could possibly go. They were able to remove the massive fatty tumor from his abdomen without any complications. The tumor wasn't connected to any organs, so it apparently came out pretty easily. They said that he is already raising his head and looking around as he is coming out of the anesthesia. They are sending the tumor away to be tested to see whether it was malignant, but so far none of the preliminary biopsies have suggested that it was. They said that he might even be able to come home tonight. I feel so relieved! Thanks again for all of the kind words!

:lmao:

I would think that post-breakup interests in dogs would only apply in situations where a couple got a dog while living together and jointly raised the dog for a significant period of time. I raised my dog for 8 years with my ex, and my girlfriend raised her dog with her ex for around 5 years. I think that is usually sufficient to establish a lifelong interest in the dog's life.

If I broke up with my girlfriend, I certainly would not feel the need to spend time with her dog. And, for example, in Zow's case, I don't think that his racist ex-girlfriend getting a dog while they were not living together and were dating for less than a year (I think) should result in any shared custody situation.

I just think there is a significant difference between those scenarios.

 
How long was Woz with that chick before he started paying for her cell phone?

You have been a very good sport about letting me have my fun.

We lived together. But that was for only about 6 months and we dated a little over a year.

 
Great news for Tucker.

I was with a girl for 4 years, she had a black lab who was a few years old. Over time he felt like my dog. When the relationship was falling apart I realized I was going to miss the dog more than her. We didn't split custody after the break up (didnt even cross my mind, it was her dog, and she hated me). I was a little sad when I learned of his passing years later.

I never once paid for a girl's cell phone. This story has been so damn distorted.

I dated a girl for about a year in law school. Like 5 months in both our plans were ending and she had some deal through her work where a family plan was cheap ( cared about cheap since I was a broke student). It was a two-year contract. We jumped right into it because we were head over heels, blah blah.

We broke up (or, more accurately, she broke up with me) around the year mark of dating. It was incredibly messy, I whined a ton on here about it, etc. Anyway, we'd still had like a year left on the contract so instead of just canceling the plan the agreement was she'd pay AT&T and I'd reimburse her every month for my share. This worked for awhile. Inevitably though problems arose when she called me one day and demanded I get out of the plan and pay half the termination fee. She explained she had a new bf and apparently she blew through her minutes talking to him and she got hit with a big bill. I said no because I couldn't afford the buyout. In reality I said no because I was crushed she had a new boyfriend and I didn't want to lose thing one last reason to remain in contact.* Nonetheless, I offered to get out of the contract if she paid the entire cancelation fee but I otherwise wouldn't do it. Drama ensued and I talked about it on here and took a lot of #### for it. It got back enough that I actually went and got a new number/plan and was going to stick her with the old plan, but eventually it worked itself out where she and this dude abruptly broke up, she continued the plan to its two year-end, and I continue to pay my share for a number I didn't use.

Somehow this turned into me paying a girl's cell phone bill.

*Buckfast take note of this example of an ex trying to keep ties to try to get back into the girl's pants.

Exactly.

I love and miss that little damn teacup yorkie dog. It would always sleep between my shins and help me finish my food. But never once has it crossed my mind to ask for time with the dog. I imagine my wife and RacistEx's husband would find that strange.

Ok, enough joking...are you seriously not concerned about what this guy is doing inside your gf's house when you guys are gone?

 
He's still giving it to her. An ex cleaning your woman's toilet? That's the most ridiculous thing I think I've ever heard. I can't believe that's OK with anyone. Sheesh. :loco:

What should I be concerned about? As far as I can tell, the ex-boyfriend seems like a relatively nice and harmless guy. I'm pretty sure he is not a sociopath like all of you sick ####s whose first move would be to insert my toothbrush into your anal cavity followed by vigorous masturbating into my girlfriend's underwear drawer. I can't believe that this thread has resulted in me sticking up for the ex-boyfriend.
