5 years on I feel sorry for my ex's boyfriend as I see the poor fella being treated as she treated me.

I have no problem going round the house for dinner as the two of them do a good spread and my kids are there as well.

My ex is now seeing another women...
Superb! Did you know she was that way inclined?
I had an invite to an ex's wedding, where she was getting married to her new wife! I would have gone but was already booked for that day sadly. We still get on well.

My most recent ex is sat on the couch in her PJ's to my right at the moment, we still get on too. She does have a new guy and I've seen him but it doesn't really worry me, in fact I help him out with stuff via her but we've never actually met as such. I suspect we would probably get on actually as I have no hard feelings, we grew apart and moved on so no big deal.
I always tell everyone my life is simple and uncomplicated but I'm beginning to think I might be wrong.

I suspect the split between "bothered" and "not bothered" would very closely match the split of "she kicked me out" and "I kicked her out". I dont expect anyone to admit it but I reckon they're feeling like they've "lost" if they're seeing the ex with her new man, after she told them to ps off laugh

For those who want to remind their new guy where you've been, I quite enjoyed this quote from God Bless America: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BEDaxT1nDqo&t=1...

Was happy when I saw the ex with someone new (just a week or so after I got rid of her...) as it meant that she'd mostly leave me alone so I can get on with life now.

After I put her through University as a mature student, my first wife got shot of me to look for someone wealthier and more academically accomplished. Years later, after several false starts with men who were fairly well placed financially but didn't want to jeopardise their money by getting too involved with a woman who had skinned her husband, she is still having an on/off relationship with a vehicle technician who is okay, but neither wealthy nor brainy. We were all at my eldest son's wedding and he seemed uncomfortable.

I ended up driving my ex's husband to their wedding. They're more like family, my ex and my wife get on really well.

I generally don't feel anything at all towards my Ex's. They are an Ex for a reason.

Whatever the reason was at the time, it was obviously better for both of us that we weren't together any more. That puts a positive spin on it and if I ever bump into an Ex or see them in the street I tend not to think anything of it, just be polite.

I generally get over these things quite quickly.

It does; if I was Bobby I'd feel bad karona was clearly hurting so much. Tinged with superiority.

By the time I saw my ex with someone else I was with someone taller, slimmer and 12 years younger than her. Her new guy looked fed up already.

ended up in a supermarket checkout queue behind an ex
the relationship was bitter, and the split was bitter (I was fkin to glad to be out and free from her emotional blackmailing and suicide threats)
she was with a new fella and they both looked calm and normal and relaxed

it felt good, looked like she'd gotten over her bullst and had settled down

then she noticed I was there and suddenly starts her fake laugh and hugging him in a 'look at us arent we affectionate and happy' kind of way

and that made me sad because she did that fake crap with me and it would have been nicer if she'd either blanked me or just said hello n showed some genuine emotion towards the poor guy

But it doesn't validate why she dumped him.

No matter how bad it feels, just smile, be polite , wish them luck and walk on. Nothing will make her day more then seeing you upset at her new life, conversely nothing will piss her off more then seeing you "not bothered"
Not really... a lot will just have not worked together and so wish the other person all the best knowing they're a nice person but just not the right one. No need to try and show off to the other person that life is much better etc.

Rarely see any of them but depending on the reason for the ending I'll either give a genuine smile or an equally genuine sneer. Never get involved in a three or four way conversation though - not fair to the new people on the scene on either side. Never yet seen an ex with a guy and felt inferior, which may or may not be false self-confidence, but it works.

Just beat her to it, and have a new bit of stuff on your arm when you next see her.
