Tobey gets a bad rep, between the poker games and the young girlfriends.
But isn’t this the best case scenario for a failed marriage? I mean clearly they’re all good enough friends to both have Tobey officiate and for Tobey to accept. Clearly means relations with the in-laws are also decent. Personally this is best case for their kids. I really don’t envy kids that have to live with divorced parents that hate each other at worst or don’t talk at best. Seems like this is the healthiest outcome of a divorce for the kids.
I also think this shows that Tobey gets unfairly judged. Unless his ex wife, ex in laws, ex wife’s new husband are also all assholes and they’re all just peas in a pod.
Agree. My best friend got divorced a couple years ago. It was amicable and they have a wonderful daughter to share. They're still friends and look out for each other. My friend recently gave his ex and her boyfriend a ride to the airport for a romantic getaway.
For their daughter, they have to deal with parents not living together, but also have parents who still love and respect each other, and can have family events where everyone is there, rather than having to choose one parent over the other.
Their daughter has parents not living together, but also (hopefully) two examples of healthy romantic relationships, and a model of a healthy break up. That's awesome.
I feel like people really underplay how important the model of what you see growing up is. It's possible to break out of that model, but in my experience, it requires a level of commitment and emotional maturity that most people don't have.
