This seems like a really good thread, but I think my ability to contribute is severely limited. I don't think I could badmouth an ex, simply because I liked them at one time or another.
Even cheating on me wouldn't particularly generate much ire. I've told my current girlfriend that she can go for it with another guy if she finds herself uncontrollably attracted, so long as I get some sort of heads up. I approach relationship as a mutually beneficial relationship, and if I'm not benefitting them at all I'd much prefer they find it somewhere than suffer in silence.
Back to being limited - I've only got two ex's. The first I met at a party at 17, got really wasted, thought she was hot and went out and got her number. Fast forward a month and I was starting college, called her to break up because we were having a strip poker party in our dorm and I thought I might get some if I was single. Turns out the poker girl didn't like me at all.
Second one same deal, but only a week or so - she was hot, but I didn't talk to her at all. Eventually met in person and decided hey, we really don't hang out at all, this isn't really a relationship and that was that.
Third and current is rolling up on 6 years and I don't foresee it ending (don't they all say that?). I don't think I'd have anything bad to say about her either.
