Ilovecake Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 First of all I used that same avatar when I started posting here lol The guy I had my longest relationship with, which was over 6 years started dating a girl a month after we broke up, moved out of town with her less than a year later and married her that Halloween. He was the love of my life, still is, I was crushed. We heven't seen each other in 12 years; last spring was the first time I saw him since he moved. It was awkward but fine, we actually talked a lot. I met his wife, I wanted to hate her but she was one of the coolest girls I ever met.
USMCHokie Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 No, I haven't had that happen to me yet, but if it did, I probably wouldn't want to know if possible...
bananaboat11 Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 I would never want to know... My recent breakup went back to her ex (dumped me via facebook and REALLY burned me)... they were together 4 years. For 2 of those last 4 years, he was ****ing some blonde bimbo.. that's how I met my now ex... ex of NC for the rest of my life... ...and that piece of **** ex, now boyfriend again... was going to marry her. I never want to know what comes of them... I never want her to come back to apologize... I never want to hear of her... them... her stupidity... I don't care if she ever regrets what she's done to me... she needs to reflect on these things until her dying day. ...and she may not now... but I am quite sure... she will.
LostLamb Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 My ex met someone else within a month of our engagement being called off. He's still with her now (I remember being told on here that it was a rebound and would be over within a month but I disagreed) and will be marrying later this year probably. I'm not sure what to think as my life is weird so their marriage will probably last 50 years. I know he isn't over what happened with us as he sent me a vile message just before christmas and I now realise that happy people don't bother contacting ex's , no matter how angry they feel. If I had a partner i'd not waste time looking up ex's online
dreamer84 Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 i hope im long over it and not checking for it if that happens....thinking about it is crushing me...i already seeing her new love getting cool with her younger sister...and i think she might have met her mother but another ex dumped me and went back to her ex...matter fact they did get "engaged" it was after i didnt care i just laughed and was like its not going to last...and i was right because knowing the situation you could tell...
single Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 Happened to me with a previous ex but by the time she was with him i had moved on and was with my current ex. Didn't really have a problem with it as i had let go of any feelings other than i cared for her as the mother of my son and therefore still have lots of dealings with her and her husband. He actually seems a nice guy and has never caused me any problems. So i am happy for them. That's the good news not sure about current ex i will no doubt be back to square 1 when i see the new bloke in her life. Keep moving on i suppose.
Author smalls552 Posted January 15, 2010 Author Posted January 15, 2010 well the only reason i know the details is because i'm very good friends with my ex's younger brother and his g/f. the week my ex got engaged they called me. they were all riled up and in shock and not happy. they told me a few things about the relationship and it sounds awful. i wish i didn't care about it so much.
sunrae Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 My ex-fiancee and I were split for about 5 yrs, when he got engaged to his now wife... I knew for us it would never work, and we remained really good friends, but it still hurt when he told me... I was happy for him and sad for me.... They have been married for about 4 years, when they hit a rough patch and he called me telling he wanted to leave his wife and move to be with me... I told him NO! Anyway, they remained together and now have a little boy. I also dated a guy about two years ago, we split up and he is living with his now girlfriend, that he started dating after me.... It's hard not to care about someone when you have had a special connection with them. I think it's only human.
prayingshecomesback Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 Im convinced my ex is getting married to the guy she left me for. So if I found out it would be a punch to the gut but I would be over it quick. Im dating someone else now and Im having a good time meeting all these hot women. She got to go to 1 boring relationship after she dumped me. Ive been playing the field and enjoying all types of women now. It is not all that bad and I really feel so much more comfortable by myself and dont want a relationship right now...I never got to explore prior to my ex and Im having a blast. Even my close female friends joke and are calling me "player" now. So it sucks for her! Fun times for me!
Oh Moe Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 My ex-fiancee and I were split for about 5 yrs, when he got engaged to his now wife... I knew for us it would never work, and we remained really good friends, but it still hurt when he told me... I was happy for him and sad for me.... They have been married for about 4 years, when they hit a rough patch and he called me telling he wanted to leave his wife and move to be with me... I told him NO! You have been cruel like me and said sure no problem. Then when he got there close the door. Although I didn't plan on being cruel it happened. Anyway, they remained together and now have a little boy. I also dated a guy about two years ago, we split up and he is living with his now girlfriend, that he started dating after me.... It's hard not to care about someone when you have had a special connection with them. I think it's only human. I atleast enjoyed it she was very cruel to me and my kids.
