Posted: 1/28/2008 8:03:22 PM | Nope. Not since a few weeks after I moved out a year ago.
It's for the best anyhow--- that relationship wasn't going to work. | |

Posted: 1/28/2008 8:07:48 PM | Oddly enough, I have seen an Ex, recently: today. We were going to get married 25 years ago. I hadn't seen her since. After all this time, I'd forgotten what she looked like; wondered if I'd even recognize her if I ever ran into her again.
So today I was at the post office, standing at the little table there. A lady was standing directly across from me filling out her envelope. I was doing the same. Then I noticed she was looking at my envelope as I filled out the return address. I looked at her's and saw the name. It was the girl I was going to marry. She looked the same - hadn't aged at all. We kind of stared at each other for a moment, then both of us, without a word, just walk away in different directions. | |

Posted: 1/28/2008 8:09:36 PM | | Ha, I see my ex-husband every weekend when he comes to hang out with our boy. I have absolutely NO romantic feelings for him at all, but he's a good friend. | |

Posted: 1/28/2008 9:17:39 PM | | I occasionally run into an ex bf, but I see both my ex husbands pretty much ever week for a few minutes, to either pick up the kids (when they show up to do so) or to drop off child support. What happens? A few....and I mean very few ....words are exchanged usually concerning the kids, or one of their family members that may have been ill, and then they leave. Familiar feelings come back? Yep....reaffirmations as to why we are no longer together....feelings of affection...uhh , no!!! Flashbacks? Bad ones, as I said, reaffirmations why we are NOT together anymore. And no, I don't hate them, just have no desire to revisit the past is all. | |

Posted: 1/28/2008 9:27:05 PM | Seen them face to face, NO. But one is a myspace 'friend'...hahaha. he's married with a kid, so those are his priorities. Once, before he took the plunge, we hung out with mutual friends and that was a disaster....Exs as Exs for a reason...let's keep them that way!
But for some reason my BFF sees my Exs all the time...maybe cuz she still lives in the same city...I moved so it's less likily I'll see an Ex...unless we make an effort (which will never happen)....they're either married, have kiddos, are married with kiddos  | |

Posted: 1/28/2008 9:27:13 PM | I haven't seen my ex since May 07, it's actually better off this way that I don't see her, but
I think I saw her once at my workplace but she quickly fled the scene with her boyfriend after she saw me cooking their food   | |

Posted: 2/10/2008 6:29:21 AM | | yes, we are very good friends. I think if you ever love someone deeply, you will have a bond with them. Even though he would like to revisit our relationship, I learn from my mistakes/experiences. If they didn't treat you right the first time, then it wasn't what it should have been. So why go there? | |

Posted: 2/10/2008 9:43:44 AM | yeah i ran into him at the grocery store, when i was with a guy friend of mine. He had lost like 50 lbs from all his drinking and had dark circles under his eyes. I felt sorry for him but secretly glad that i looked good that day. makeup and hair done! Is that bad? lol
The conversation was awkward... he has always been**** so he had this look like ive seen her(me) naked before. I dont think he realized my guy friend was gay. lol i think he felt a little jealous. | |

Posted: 2/10/2008 9:55:56 AM | Haven't seen her since she moved away to another city five months ago in September. Spoke to her on the phone 2 weeks ago for the first time since Novemeber and I get the feeling she regrets her decision to leave me...
Right now she's 10 hours away, I'm moving to another city for a job and will be under 2 hours away. Will our paths cross? I don't know. I still miss her so much and would do anything to have her back. But we're both starting new jobs and unless she makes the sacrifice (I made the inital sacrifice to be with her originally) then I doubt I'll ever see her again  | |

I agree. I don't understand how anyone could hate someone they once truly loved. You can realistically know that you can't be with them, though. I see my ex because we have 2 kids. Even if we didn't have kids, we would probably still be friends. We will always have that 'bond'. | |

Posted: 2/10/2008 10:18:31 AM | Last time I seen her in person was hmmmm last June or so when I picked up the hot tub. I see her little pic in the profile pics that appear on the top here all the time. But whatever. No biggie.
We never had any kids together so there aren't any ties.

Posted: 2/15/2008 1:53:37 PM | That is so true. I hate to admit it but it took me a while to learn from my past relationships and move forward. Its so easy to go back to what's familiar to you whether its good or bad because it is comfortable.
When I finally got it in my head to let the past go and move forward, I became a better person to me. I can't say its still not a little diffucult but alot of the right choices never are. | |

Posted: 2/15/2008 2:03:08 PM | | I see my ex about once or twice a month when I go visit my children about two hundred miles north of me. She is close with them and is often there when I show up. I have absolutely NO interest in ever again doing anything romantic with her whatsoever. I went thru way too much crap when we divorced to ever want to go down that road again. Besides that, she eats too much and has ballooned into something resembling a mastodon. I have changed so much in the way I think and see things, that I cannot for the life of me figure out whatever it was that induced me to marry her in the first place. Oh wait a sec, I remember now, she had a body like a Playboy playmate. That stuff was all so long ago that it seems like a memory of a movie I once saw and not my life. | |

Posted: 2/15/2008 8:05:01 PM | | Thank the Lord no. I ran into him a few months ago and in about 30 seconds I was reminded why I ended it. | |

Posted: 2/16/2008 5:25:23 AM | I have been married twice..... my first ex and I are friends. I will always love him, but we both moved on. But now, we have kind of said things that may have caused a bit of a wrinkle in all this. I am single and he is married(for the 4th time). If we weren't so young when it all happened...maybe it would have been better. But he slept w/ someone else and I could never trust him and I divorced him. And now after 16 yrs.....He questions a lot and I don't have all the answers.
My second ex is just an @$$!!! | |

Posted: 2/16/2008 5:55:47 AM | | Alot of us-single parents-have to see and work with our ex'es on a constant basis. The key is get out of the drama and act like adults. I know this always isnt possible, but it can be done if there is a greater purpose behind it. It was rough for the first few months and then it was only about my daughter and the real estate. Now she also occassionally asks things like how to fix things and whatnot. While I sometimes worry that it is a reconciliation ploy, I try to take things at face value and live my life. | |

Posted: 2/16/2008 6:37:33 AM | Yup, I see her frequently and we live 1 1/2 hours distant.
In fact, we both have been to two funerals recently.
The drama isn't there.
However, the relatives keep making suggestions about reconcilliation. It is quite rude of them, I think.

Posted: 2/16/2008 8:05:06 AM | I had a date with an ex last night... I got the sneaky suspicion he was trying to screw me in more ways than one, so I went home and decided to never do THAT again.  | |

Posted: 2/16/2008 1:09:20 PM | Usually every other weekend but depending on events in the kids' lives it can be more often. We still talk regularly, usually about the kids. We are determined that we can amicable since we have young kids who need both of us in their lives.
Very little drama circulating around us, which is the best for all of us. | |
