Reference

I'm at this very transitional place right now where I don't know what to refer to him as when I am talking about my divorce.  I could say "exhusband" but I feel like that implies that we are already divorced.  I could call him my "husband" but that would imply that we are still married.  Perhaps people might even assume, happily married?  I could refer to him as "the asshole", "dick", "cheater" but then those names have to be followed by an explanation as to why I am referring to him with such hostility. 

When I talk about him to someone and I have to make reference back to him I find myself stumbling over my words because I don't know what to say.  These are the little things that pop up every day that I find just keep being a constant reminder of my plight.
