star_shooter Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 Hi All Have any of you ever ran into an old boyfriend or girlfriend after not seeing them for a very long time? If so; how did you see them? Did you go right up to them? Did they recognize you, etc? How did it go? How long was it since you had seen them last? Stories, etc? Thank you All
d0nnivain Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 I ran into an EX from 12 years ago a few days ago. I hadn't seen him in 6 years. We smiled, walked toward each other, mutual kiss on the cheek, one armed hug & had a 3-5 minute conversation. I'm happily married. He was with his GF. At some point I loved him dearly. I still think he's a great person even if he turned out to be a lousy BF. We want nothing but the best for each other. I was on here later freaking out because he knew my husband's name but that's a different issue. There is no sense being rude. A quick hello doesn't mean you will try to reconcile.
eching Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 I ran into an ex almost a year after we'd broken up. We were just walking in the direction towards each other on the same side of the street, so it was inevitable that we'd meet. We acknowledged each other by saying a quick hi and kept just continued going wherever we were both going. No bigs. I think it's good that we don't pretend we don't know each other, but I don't see any reason to stop and share small talk. I think if it was another circumstance, like I'd seen him coming from the other side of the street, I wouldn't have done anything, just kept walking my way.
martaldn Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 yup. we split up ( he dumped me ) looong time ago and always refused to see me again.. ( it took me over 2 years to recover from that split ) then we add each other on facebook and he started to chat to me again- comment my pictures and like my post.. he also sent me a drunken message once saying he was missing me a lot.. oh well. ( this in a time frame of over 10 years ) ... then he decided he was ok to meet at the next occasion we would have. ( he lives in Leicester I live in London ) it happened when I went there to visit other people I know there.. i asked if he still wanted to meet me and he said yes.. he came and meet me in the pub we used to go out when we were together. he was very nervous and I did all the questions and the talk. I was SO over him and no nervous at all - i feel very powerful during the conversation with a little sense of revenge ( i did suffer so much for him ) .. we chatted for a while then we separated . when i arrived to my place he made sure ( by text ) I got there fine ( i had to take the bus to go in the middle of no-where ) and he told me he really wanted to meet me because he felt he had to - after such a long time - even if her current GF didnt want it!! we are still in good terms and friends with absolutely no romantics feelings from my side at all. a funny thing happened also - his current GF added me on facebook ( this also happened before we 2 met again ) and when i questioned him about the reason why she did it he told me because she feels a bit jealous of me! ( i dont know her at all )
