Eva

great story . well written with humour. love the aussie slang and the shit we put on each other ... oi oi oi

Very different and very good. Thank you. 5*

Good story, mate. Loved the deadline of still being good friend with his ex but just wondered why and how Eva got pregnant and that Mark didn't notice. Still a good read.

wonderful story. NO nits to pick!

I think he could have worked things out with his wife if he had counseling. They could have discussed the issues especially the kids one. It might have worked out in the end. It seems like they didn't give it a proper chance and just decided to not risk it, choosing instead to try and preserve friendship. If it was true love it would have been worth the risk, in my opinion. It still felt very bittersweet at the end and they obviously still have feelings for each other that won't ever fully fade. Seems like a shame to have given up on that without giving it everything they could have.

I enjoyed the way this was told and the slow build up. Could have done without the horrible way Eva's husband fucked her and their son over. I mean that's just next-level fucked up. I guess that pair deserve each other. Truly horrible people. At least both hurt parties found a better life in the end.

The Eva drama that came out of nowhere felt very forced and contrived. And he didn't even try to solve the problem, which to me, could have been easily resolved. Instead he ran away so it was dragged out. Wasn't a fan of that. No surprise that it was a result of fear and lack of communication on the part of the scared party's fault. Rather cliched if I do say so myself. I guess I just get tired of seeing the same kind of thing in so many stories. At least this one resolved itself fairly quickly with no lasting effects or much lost time together.
