The only communication I have with my ex wife and occasionally her mother is when we are exchanging my son for the weekend or holidays.

I’m still pretty tight with my ex bro n Laws, we play fantasy football together, we get together at a bar a couple times a month for beer and pool. Hell we went to Philadelphia last year for the saints game. Ex wife and ex mother n law hate the shite

She and I have not spoken since the divorce


Not being in that situation it just seems odd. I know it's probably pretty normal for divorced couples, but being happily married it seems so alien to be cut off like that.

No.
My ex blames me for the deaths of her parents and her aunt and uncle.
I am also blamed for 183 deaths in Kenner.

They were my family for 14 years. The ex and I both are still friendly. Her family is still in my heart. It's not their fault we didn't work out.

I am friends with them on social media and wish them all the best. My ex-father-in-law is declining rapidly from dementia. I feel terrible for him and the family. I'd help in any way I could if asked.

Not all divorces are shitshows and not all ex's are bad people. Sometimes things just don't work out. It's sad, but it's life.

That’s because they’re still brother and sister even though they are exes

Only the one I have a child by. I am on good terms with her mother's family.

Just spent 4-5 days w my ex MIL in Northern Ca this summer. She lives outside Sac in Davis, which is a great place to visit some great places from. She loves my new wife. I've been divorced from her daughter for 15 years. Now my ex wife wasn't wild to hear about it, but didn't make too big a deal over it.

I also like my ex's sister's fams and we all follow each other on social media.

So, for those of you who have been divorced, do you still keep in touch with the family of your ex?

My ex-MIL glares at me from the passenger seat of the car when they come pickup my son.

my ex had a relationship with my family since we graduated high school 30 years later, when we split up, i told my family that she was divorced from me, not the whole dude family. i asked them to treat her like they always had. she stayed with them when she visited our home town until they died, and she sat with the family at their funerals.

I guess it depends on the situation, but in most divorces, including mine, lines are drawn and not crossed. Cordial, sure. Going over for dinner, hell no.

I didn't keep in touch with my former inlaws, even though our divorce was their daughter's fault and decision. They told me it might be awkward for them, and I understood.

I did keep in touch with other of her family members that I got to know.

I still keep in touch with my ex-FIL. He's my son's grandad and was a father figure to me from my early 20's to my early's 40's. NO hard feelings. Doesn't feel weird to me.

My Ex is batshit crazy, and her family is even worse. I don't want to have anything to do with those people.

Nope. Clean break, and don’t look back. Remarried and my wife wouldn’t be alright with me having contact with my ex’s family. No need to hold onto the past.

I keep in touch with my ex's family more than I keep in touch with her
