No doubt their kids will be delighted to find they have “coparents” in their lives.

He probably got fed up with having to do obeisance every time he came into the room.................

[Ghost of SVR4]

heh-heh...yeah, okay. The bickering should start in a month or two; then the lawyers, the inventories, the accusations the courts. It'll get real "conscious" soon.

[CaptainK]

New age gobbledygook to avoid saying they are getting a everyday divorce.

[allendale]

More New Age nonsense. There are two children involved. Divorce is never easy or pleasant from their perspective.

[exit82]

Guess that’s the “View from the Top”.

Finally, they get to the part about how to uncouple consciously and “avoid the drama of divorce.” You shouldn’t think about it in terms of your marriage having failed, because (a) as we learned, the expectation that it would last was based on an outdated construct

Some people in Genesis lived until 900 years old and they had marriages.

Outdated construct? Did that come from the script of the Matrix?

He’s a homo and she’s annoying.

[agrarianlady]

Er — the earliest marriages lasted for hundreds of years.

[Cheerio]

Gweneth who? I should care because.............?

[Rummyfan]

I think Gwyneth is consciously uncoupling because she knows Chris Martin has been copulously consciously coupling with others besides her.

I konw she's a head case but still a beautiful woman.

Meanwhile my wonderful wife and I are celebrating our 21st anniversary today. Then again we don’t have a kid named “Apple” so...

[Cyber Liberty]

They left out the most important part:

“Marry somebody you don’t love in the first place.”

[morphing libertarian]

My wife is in charge of uncoupling in our house.

[Yaelle]

“Mommy and Daddy just consciously uncoupled and I’m still stuck with the name Apple. At least it’s better than Microsoft.”

[Yaelle]

One good thing may come of this. Chris writes killer songs. If she broke his heart, we might expect some more classics from ColdPlay.

[Georgia Girl 2]

If you believe in the sanctity of marriage I think that kind of leaves out de-coupling. Oh nevermind. :-)

Nearly 100% of the comments in the articles I have read at gossip sites or the Daily Mail in England are against both especially Gweneth. She is so snobbish. A comment I came across - What is the difference between a whining puppy and a whiny Coldplay song is the puppy will eventually stop whining....

Example today from the Daily Mail: Gwyneth Paltrow reckons it’s easier to work a desk job and raise children than be a mommy movie star

Other quotes: On taking a retreat to Sedona, Arizona: “I’ll never forget it. I was starting to hike up the red rocks, and honestly, it was as if I heard the rock say: ‘You have the answers. You are your teacher.’ I thought I was having an auditory hallucination.

On living in Europe: “We have great dinner parties at which everyone sits around talking about politics, history, art and literature—all this peppered with really funny jokes. But back in America, I was at a party and a girl looked at me and said, ‘Oh, my God! Are those Juicy jeans that you’re wearing?’ and I thought, I can’t stay here. I have to get back to Europe. I love America too. It is just a more adolescent culture.”

This is the one that turns everyone off about her:
Criticizing people for being upset about 9/11: “I find the English amazing how they got over 7/7. There were no multiple memorials with people sobbing as they would have been in America. There, they are constantly scaring people but at the same time, people think nothing of going to see a therapist.”

Sadeghi and Sami begin by explaining that given rapidly accelerating life expectancy, these days it’s unrealistic to expect that we’ll be able to stick it out until death do us part, which suggests we “ought to redefine the construct” of marriage.

Well isn't that a comforting way to redefine "failure?"
