Depends on when you tell her. If you're still married to her, then it's difficult cause you have to tell her that you cheated. If you're divorced, why bother even telling her?

So you're divorced, having coffee with her and out of the blue you want to tell her that you found someone to love. When you got divorced, didn't that imply that you wanted to find someone else? So why would you be scared to tell her? The fact that you are on good terms should mean that she will understand. Shouldn't it?

I always say in these situations, reverse it and ask yourself how would you feel if after the second cup of coffee she says...I just want you to know that I found someone.

My ex and I are still good friends. I am the one who ended the relationship. Although neither of us wants to go back to the old routine, we do wish each other the best, I would hesitate to tell him. Do not want to hurt him, and would not like to loose his friendship over a fling.

yes it is difficult. and I doubt I ever will.

Unless I have to.

My ex will not let go. The reason she is my ex is because she suffers from narcissistic personality disorder. I am surprised I was able to find someone else in the midst of getting away from her.

I dont want to make light of her illness but at the same time I recognize that it can be destructive to any new relationships I form and those around me that trigger the cognitive kill switch.

its nice to love again. but it is bittersweet to leave someone you no
longer love because they are not well.

I assume when you say "ex" means all ties between you two are over, so in my opinion no need tell her that you had find a new love.

Sometimes when one decides to 'break' the option is still there to be friends or on good speaking terms without hate etc?dunno confused hug

Seems to me people don't divorce to become celibate. If it's going to hurt a friends feelings to see you move on with your life, and they will find out wether you tell him/her or not, then maybe one cannot be friends. Time to complete the divorce,,,,

I've Found Someone Of My Own Lyrics

Songwriters: FRANK F. ROBINSON

I got up this morning while I was havin' my coffee
My woman came in sat right down by my side
And with a tear in her eye she said I've a confession to make you
And I said woman speak what's on your mind
She said I found somebody new to take your place
I said don't feel so all alone I've found someone of my own

You know those lonely nights when you left me all alone
Oh my new love would call and comfort me on the phone
And I said darling if that's the way it's gotta be
Oh sweet woman don't you worry bout me
She said I found somebody new...

I got up from the table reached down and wiped the tears from her face
I put out my cigarette I turned and slowly walked away
She said I found somebody new...
She said I found somebody new...

I've Found Someone Of My Own lyrics © BMG PLATINUM SONGS OBO THIRD STORY MUSIC, INC.

Life sometimes throws you a Curveball,sometimes more than one,sometimes you could swear they were all Curveballs!grin

I think peeps that keep strings attached to their ex'es are playing games. I would never get involved with someone who had their ex lurking in the background. Good screening tool though wine
