On Friday Melissa Etheridge filed a Petition for Dissolution of Domestic Partnership to legally end her relationship with Tammy Lynn Michaels, seeking joint custody of their three-year-old twins. Melissa “blindsided” Tammy last year by ending the relationship, and news finally broke in April they were done. Not helping things: Michaels’ tendency to take to her blog to write poetry about her now ex-partner. Today is no different:

Do I detect a certain haiku influence? Or Zen koans?
Blah
Melissa Etheridge is old and gross. She should just be happy she got someone way better looking and less douchey than herself who was willing to hook up with her.

A nasty break up is no excuse for horrible poetry! And publishing it on the internet, that’s just tacky!
I do hope their kidlings avoid getting dragged through the mud. It’s up to the adults in any breakup to minimise the effects on the offspring.
“Blindsighting”?
“Pinkyswore”?
———–ouch!

I’m a little disappointed, I thought Melissa was better than that. Has ME has been hanging around with Navratilova? She certainly certainly seems to be picking up some of Martina’s habits of mistreating women.

@Allie @Blah
You must be reading some other news stories about this break up other than here.
Please provide links so the rest of us can figure out where u 2 get these ideas from. What is the source of your hatered ?
Also, thank you for your kind words of concern about the effects of this relationship ending on the custody issues. After all, ME & TLM do have to worry about their c/h/i/l/d/r/e/n, something which your posts addressed so carefully !
Your respect for LGB families deserves special mention !

I feel terrible for Tammy Lynn. Melissa, and Rosie, for that matter have demonstrated that LGBT relationships are no different that straight. One minute we are professing our undying love and a minute later we publicly destroying those same relationships.
It just legitimizes the Right Wing narrative that Gay people cannot have long lasting and meaningful relationships.

M.E.: over-rated; self-centered.

Anyone else wondering if Tammy Lynn even has a lawyer of her own yet? (For one thing, it seems like any lawyer worth his/her salt would have told her to stop frickin’ blogging about this…)
jeffree
Thank you to all posters for caring so deeply about the fate of thr /c/h/i/l/d/r/e/n/ impacted by this break up.
You are true humanitarians & advocates for what really matters
And you should all get DNA tested to prove that you are humanoid. So far all we see is hatered.

Melissa Etheridge is like many celebrities; narcissistic and self absorbed who act like most predators; quick to act and go for the throat. They do what they want, walk away when they want. Sadly, and rather..hmm uck, she probably has a younger blonde waiting in the wings. I hope Tammy has a full house where a support system is concerned, and is able to keep the children with her.

I didn’t realize I need to cite my sources about my feelings on her being a douchebag. She’s a douchebag. I think her actions so far have made that pretty obvious. Also, I just think she’s a doucehbag.
