Love already inspires people to do some truly crazy stuff, but when you factor in what can happen when a once loving relationship runs its course, and divorce ends up being the outcome....oh boy, can things get hairy very quickly. Some folks that have weathered the profound emotional toll that can be muddling through a divorce, just end up completely losing their minds. You can only hope that people don't ultimately take things too far, but that can't necessarily be said for some of the people in this thread.

    Font - rematado · 21h Not me but my SO. His ex-wife got married a few days after receiving the court's final decision on the annulment of marriage case. In our country, we don't have divorce. Well ok, he has moved on already. Now her new husband plans to have his marriage to her annulled too.

    Font - kriso921 · 1d 1 Award Laundry list- but my favourite was his sister sent a Facebook message to all of his contacts the day of our separation (including my family). Before we announced anything, her message stated everyone should immediately delete me and if I said anything about why we separated I was lying and not to listen. Basically this created a lot of curious questions and a lot of laughs. É G Reply ↑ 6.4k 3 ...

    Font - Miridana • 19h 3 1 Award I had forgotten to move the electricity bill over in his name (I moved out). He tried to make me pay for it, right until I threathened him with paying the bill and asking the power company to shut off the power. It would have cost him three times more to get it turned on again. Idiot. G Reply 4 553 3 ...

    Font - Leotardleotard · 19h Bought an apartment (in central london, insanely expensive) across the road from where I worked so she could spy on me. She also never wanted to live or work in London I had no idea this had happened and fortuitously I happened to leave that position soon after we split so it didn't really work. I only found out however when I was having drinks with a mate and he happened to mention that my ex' apartment was just over there (we were by my old work) 6 Reply 1 521 3 ...

    Font - ymisoqt · 19h 3 Awards When I told my ex-husband I wanted a divorce, the next day after I went to work he packed our entire house into a uHaul and put it in storage. Even with a court order he refused to give my stuff back. I left my marriage with the clothes on my back. Years later he decided he was above the courts because he got away with that and took our son across country telling me he was moving with one day notice and told me I couldn't do anything about it.

    Font - BMT_Nurse · 18h Called me the night before his wedding to his second wife and asked me if it was really over. He said "this was our last chance to be together. Are you sure it's over?" The night before he got remarried. Let that just marinate a little. I guess he didn't think me asking for the divorce, paying for it and filing the paperwork wasn't the clue it was over. 6 Reply 1 560 ...
