ex-husband or boyfriend?
When I try to steer the conversation to something else, eventually the worst offenders will find a way to drag "him" back to the front page.
How would you handle this situation?
p.s. Unless I score that night the chick does NOT get a second date.

Spare the Rod and spoil the broad.
At this point in the date, its acceptable to ask the lady how many ears she has?2 How many Mouths does she have? 1...thats right....thats so she can listen. Remind her how pretty she looks, and that you don't want to spoil the "chemistry" you're feeling with words.
At this point, you have 2 options. Interupt her every time she strays off topic, ask her questions that pre-date the boy-toy(childhood, family, vacations). Counter with stories about your family relationships, that you're close to your mother, sister et al.
If this fails, your next alternative is simple. Every time she mentions the former boyfriend...Interupt and insert your own story of Conquer and plunder of the Anderson Twins, and any other penthouse story(that wouldn't be told by frequilizer) that you can think of.....she'll either be offended and leave, or get hormonally out of control, and climb the watertower, while carrying a 12 pack out on County Road 2, and let you violate her on the catwalk at 300'.
