It is disappointing.
She says he's no longer recognisable as the man she loved, but if she'd spoken much to his first wife she'd've been given all the details on how messed up he was.
I get what you're saying- there was a pattern of behaviour established before. But I'm cracking up at the idea of sitting down and interviewing a potential partner's exes to see if the relationship is a good fit.
It happens.
People find partners like they do restaurants, word of mouth.
So I have this theory that Elon has only ever experienced love once in his entire life. Think about it; who does he interact with? His parents, other CEOs, VC types, servants. They all want something from him. He has the most powerful people in the world (and a whole subclass of weird guy) in line to sack ride him. That must just seem like how the world is supposed to be. And then he starts dating Grimes, who is a relatively normal person, who shows him real genuine love.
And then they break up in a real, genuine, and actually pretty normal way, and Musk is in no way emotionally prepared for it, like a teenager. So he gets mad at everything she taught him, at everything they shared, at everything he was when he was with her. But most interestingly, he can't buy the thing she gave him, so he's been trying to convince himself it was an illusion that never existed in the first place.
His dad was also a fucked up example of a man.
He chain married and bred women, including the daughter of one of his wives.
Musk's birther fetish/life goal is just copy-pasted from the shitheel of a dad who seemed to have little care for any of the kids he pumped into many different women.
Do many people make a habit of having deep conversations with their partners' exes?
If you're planning to have one or more children with someone, speaking to the person they divorced after more than a decade of marriage is probably a sensible idea.
Well, anecdotally I didn't and it's going well so far. I feel like trusting the honesty of the person you're with to be open about their past should work
It’s a mixed bag.
If someone came to me about my ex had inform them what made me stick around for a decade and what tainted the memory of that and why I never would again.
I’d hope they changed and grew and I’d hate to taint someone else’s ability to have something with them, or doubt their ability to grow.
But also. Idk, I wouldn’t sail on a refloated titanic
