*facepalm* Odin might not be the easiest person to understand what he means but seriously?
Also, if your wife decides to date someone else one day after you break up with her then something was definitely wrong for quite some time and you should be worried about your friend and not pissed at him.

pwhodges:
You will note that the thread that Odin uses as a source doesn't consider the possibility that a relationship might involve either marriage or children (together or separately).  It is therefore immediately limiting its relevance to a subset of the people with whom he is discussing it here; this could help explain some of the extreme differences in viewpoint - that's before we go into some of the questionable statements there.  The limited viewpoint of that thread is shown for example by the absolute: "sever contact with your ex"; this is not practical in the case of either marriage or children (OK, you can negotiate finance etc through lawyers, but I would not listen to the advice of someone who has no experience of it for a recommendation on that matter).

Of course that decision commonly precedes  the breakup of a marriage - as it did in my case (my wife was having an affair, not her first either).

I think this whole 'dinosaur espresso' thing is going to eventually lead to Faye quitting CoD, something I'm totally looking forward to for the dire change of scenery QC so desperately needs. We've been in the safe zone with "friends at a coffee shop" for a while, but there's a whole bunch of other cool stuff the QC cast could be doing. I hope Jeph agrees with this sentiment and starts to move a little outside of the box soon.

Slightly exaggorated (spelling??) but the principle is the same.... ie, he'd be happy to make a move on an ex the very next day even if you were still upset about the breakup - especially if it was the other person who called the relationship off....

Seconded. I'd like to see her and, to a lesser extent, Penny move on to bigger and better things. I've been itching to see Faye leave CoD since Raven disappeared and Jeph commented about her lack of forward momentum in-comic. How long are Penny and Faye going to keep working the same dead end job? The hiring of Hanners and Cosette seems like the perfect opportunity to see the more tenured employees take off and find better jobs or even real careers.
