How’d they get the new husband to agree to this? Happy they aren’t bitter with eachother after the divorce but I think it’s very odd that the new husband is cool with his own wedding being overshadowed by the fact Tobey is participating

I mean, Tobey is the father of the kids he will be raising and also he’s spider-man, as everyone is saying. Who knows, maybe they have a great relationship as well. My current spouse has dated friends of mine in the past and we are all still friends. Sometimes, it’s not that deep.

Edit: Yooo wtf is up with these replies?? I feel sorry for those that don’t understand nuanced adult relationships that don’t follow the status quo. Don’t project your bad experiences onto people you literally do not know at all. Happily married and a child of divorce, by the way! It’s not all sunshine and rainbows but after 20 years my parents are amicable again. You take the wins you can get. Muting now, TTYL!

It’s probably all the little Timmy’s deep into NTR that can’t even fathomably conceptualize adults having the basic ability to move on constructively, and mutually separate if relationships don’t work out.

I’m still friends with my ex, because guess what, I was already friends with her long before I dated her. Is it this recent phenomenon where you have to cut contact with them if things don’t romantically work?

Based on the insanely acrimonious divorces within my friends circle, I feel the “officiating my ex-wive’s new wedding” is not as common as “my ex-wife hates me and wants to run over my new gf” scenario.

Nobody said it was common.
