Today was eventful. I finally decided to share my project with my ex-wife. There were a lot of viewers on my blog yesterday and I wanted a chance to tell her what I was up to before she heard about it from somebody else. I really wasn’t expecting so much traffic so soon if ever. I hope that she is able to see the lighter side of my shenanigans. I know that she was shocked when I told her and I’m sure she was more shocked when she checked out the site and saw that there is a reasonable amount of interest in it. My intention isn’t to make this a bash my ex-wife forum and I hope that she can see it that way. I know it is a sensitive subject that stirs a lot of emotions and that is reflected in many of the comments that have been posted. Really this is only about me and a bunch of silly things I have done with the dress.
Speaking of silly things, the dress is great for catching oil under my car.

Kudos to you! I think humor is a great way to cope with difficult circumstances and along the way you’ve brightened a lot of people’s lives as well. Hey, I laughed! Thanks.

Epic, man. This really is some good humour and if anybody can’t just sit back and stop being serious about this, they really need to learn how to chill out and enjoy life. This is absolutely genius. Thanks. Glad at least to see that you can still appreciate how life is meant to be enjoyed and that such really helps you out. All the best with your situation.
Maybe try using the dress as a kite?

I think it’s great that ur venting this way…you could be doing a whole lot worse things…and who cares what ur ex wife thinks…she is irrelevant at this point…who cares that she wanted to save that tarnished dress for ur daughter…(why would YOU want her to wear it anyways so you can tell her sweetie ur mom wore this dress then she left me? NO you will make enough money out of all this to buy ur baby girl a brand new clean and untarnished dress! I don’t even know you and you seem like a cool guy…I hope you get rich off all this and have the last laugh dude…I really do! good luck I’ll continue to watch you on TV! U GO BOY!

As a recently married women from divorced parents, your site brings up so many emotions for me (heads up: they’re all relatively good, I’m not about to bash you). I was brought to tears when I read about how your son was trying to get you and their mother to hold hands; I’ve been there! My sister and I too, were privy to the fights about what parent bought what outfit. The pain is rising up my chest as I type. It sounds to me like you are making the best of a bad situation as far as your children are concerned. My only other suggestion would be to make sure they’re not within ear shot of any disputes the two of you may have. Often times my parents didn’t think I was listening but I was and wished I wasn’t after the fact.
I also got married 6 months ago. With the divorce rate as staggeringly high as it is, you can imagine, we both had/have our fears. The thought of my marriage failing is devastating to think about but, but we all know it can happen. Thinking about my husband mourning the loss of our marriage in the way that you have, makes my heart just sink. It’s obvious you are in pain but with that being said, I think you’re handling it perfectly. Your wife left you to deal with the dress and you’re doing something constructive with it; healing. It’s witty without being rude, it’s heartfelt and its honest. Keep up the great work, and the healing and I’ll keep reading and passing your message along.
