I ran into an ex gf once.. she was like OMG hi! I was like oh wow hi! :D Then she was like "I saw you twice on the freeway with my friends and I was like OMG that's Gabe!" I was all "No way!" (theres like 10 million cars on the freeway here). I asked her how she was doing and how her daughter was and we just were like "Its so nice to see you!" then when we were done talking I paid her my tab and left... (she was the bartender.... true story!) :rolleyes: We never officially broke up, just lost touch because we lived far from each other..

Being casual is a good idea. So you think you did well on that chance meeting? You did not feel like an inflated balloon or like you wanted to say so many things but did'nt?

I read from a blog that if you keep bumping into someone, you have a connection, unfinished business, or whatever you call it. You are given a chance to fix something or maybe it's for closure. It must be true.

That sounds a bit new-agey but it could be true to settle things and move on....or it's more likely you have a stalker if they keep showing up around you at random places... lol

I recently started attending Overeaters Anonymous meetings. The leader of the group turns out to be the aunt of a close family friend of my ex.. The leader had invited us in the group to go with her for Thanksgiving in case no one had any plans.. She was going over her sister's house, which was also going to include her niece. Which was also going to include my ex at one point or another, because the family friend is considered family. I know the leader of my OA group meant no harm, and it was an open invitation to anyone, but I just know nothing good would have came out of it if I actually did go over. My ex and i still haven't met, and it's been since May. Not to mention, it would be painfully awkward for me.

Sending you a great big (HUG) bro. :) Think of it this way - if it didn't work out it wasn't part of God's greater plan for you.

I won't be rude. I'll acknowledge her and say hi and ask how she's doing. We didn't have a bad outing. Just mental health got in the way of things. Tried staying as a friend after and it just made matters worse. No ill will. But it's never easy when something like that happens, regardless of circumstances.

Yes, it's never easy being torn between getting over someone and wanting to talk and fix everything.

I honestly thought about getting back together with her but my heart was saying yes while my mind was saying it might not be a good idea... She has an ex who was in jail. He is also the father of her daughter. Its too bad because she's really sweet and we got along real well too.. but I'm sure she had plenty of other guys to choose from.. I do think about her once in awhile especially now that we have facebook. I've looked for her on there before but didn't find her. Not sure if I'd try to contact her anyway because I have nothing to brag about as far as my life since then....

"You're still alive?!"

Tink, thank you for including a perfect answer to choose from. :)

I know I'll catch slack for this but I do have one ex whom I would ask, without hesitation: "Wow. You're not dead yet? HOW is that even possible?!"

He was engaged in so many self-centered, destructive behaviors that yes, I'm surprised his bucket wasn't drop-kicked at least 10 years ago.

I suppose I should have given a prettied-up, sanitized answer... But when it came to that particular relationship, that IS my nicest answer!

Awesome thread and poll, Tinkerbell. Please, keep 'em coming. :D
