I like to think my first husband would speak well of me, as I do of him.

This is momentarily off thread but I've always thought it'd be fascinating to get together all the people you've ever had sex with and put them in a room and not tell them why they're there and see if they worked out what they had in common.

My ex would probably say I was a great mother...at least at the youngest son's college graduation a couple months ago, he told me I did a great job with him. He'd tell you I was a great cook (one of the reason's he married me and probably what he misses the most). Other things he'd say I was good at I won't reveal here. It doesn't matter...I don't care what he thinks or what type of reference he'd give me.

It seems my post went into moderated oblivion...so, take two:

In a nutshell, my ex-fiance would say terrible things about me. He hates me for some mysterious reason. I say mysterious, because although I made some mistakes in the relationship, he's the one who proposed and then left me. He was always pretty immature. But who cares what he thinks anyway? The current guy seems to like me just fine!

I would think my ex-husband would say I'm a good mom. I would tell people he's (now) a good dad.

For everything else, I'll keep my mouth shut as long as he does!

Both of my ex-wives would instantly proclaim that I am evil incarnate; the embodiment of evil; and that I taught Satan everything he knows.

(They dislike men with a mind of their own, loathe men who say "NO" to a woman's commands, and truly hate men who reply, "Do not tell me what to do" or "Do not scold me; you are not my mother, and I am not your son.")

Wow, what a coincidence. Did both of them also put a gun on your head to marry them?

I still hang out with my ex and he tells me often that I'm the best thing since sliced bread...

it's easy to give compliments when you're not together any longer !

Sadly, for many people it seems to be a perfect time to trash an ex. I don't get that as I don't see any positive gain that one can get for trashing an ex, especially in a public forum. There is a reason why some people are not happy: they do not want to completely let go of their grouch and move on to seek better things in life.

That's only because I can never work out what the expected things are so I just say what I think and, on rare occasions, what I feel.

Shall I put you on my reference list?

"I like her. She says the most unexpected things."

I like the sound of it.
You could if you liked. If any one asks, I will say that littlebluemonkeymind has an original littlebluemonkeymind.
