When you run into one of your ex's how do you feel? (120)
nanners2863: My ex lives down the street from me and is a good friend. He comes over for dinner and sometimes we go on outings with the kids..just makes it easier for the kids!!
I,m sooooooooooo jealous. I would love to have an ex like that!woodzchick: Just what do you do to these women to make them that mad?
O.K. You may have a point in SOME cases.
bob1959: I,m sooooooooooo jealous. I would love to have an ex like that!
Lol..it's not easy but ya do whatcha gotta do.
There is such a long and unruly line that it runs the gamut of reactions...most I still love but know that the end was necessary and have moved on.
bob1959: It's a start. Thank you. (now there breaking up with me before we're together for cristsake)
SOUNDS TO ME LIKE IT'S NOT A BAD IDEA - SAVES A LOT OF HEADACHES......AND PROBABLY MONEY ALSO

If my car is undamaged, I'd be OK with it .......
I'd have no problem with it, got no bitterness, got no guilt.

There is probably something hardwired in your perception that would cause you to overlook normal...was there a significant male in your life that was also unruly?
Unruly is fun...go with it cause it sure ain't boring
lie is to short to carry bad feelings, it can cause gray hair and ulcers i just try to be nice to them

I have no problem with my 1st ex or soon to be 2nd ex if I ran into them I would try to catch up but I have no ill willed toward them or bitterness I am not even angry I catch up with my 1st every week or so

thank you - at least you aren't trying to make me feel guilty about my choices. Unruly they were/are, ya. But sweet, also that. They were a pretty selfish and inconsiderate lot tho which has more to do with why it didn't last than unruliness.
IDK about my perception. It's hard to tell about oneself, but I used to run with a kinda unruly crowd - I mean I can be lively myself, but with that bunch I was definitely the quiet one...
Most of them are POst divorce exes also, and for along time, quite honestly, I don't think I was realistically looking to settle back down just then...
bob1959: yeh' but there's the.... never mind. your probably right.
ya, that 3 letter word has put me in a few ummmmm...................less than well chosen situations too
Oh, the father of temptation(but they were so cuuuuuuuuuute)
I was going to make a joke about it but I suppose I would try to keep in mind that the ex is a person with a long list of mental and emotional problems and that all of the crap was a result of them.
I should forgive and forget but for now I'd just turn and walk away.

I ran into my ex-wife right here on St.Thomas. I hadn't seen or heard from her in over thirteen years at the time. We both had no idea if the other was dead or alive.
It was very cool. She was attending a seminar of some sort and happened to be staying at the resort where I was working at. I just happened to see her walking along a sidewalk and said hi.
We had dinner and a nice little chat. We are now friends again and have an occasional email exchange.

Geez, it's a small world. But it must feel good that you can be friends ....

Indeed it is. Never really had any hard feelings, just the way it is sometimes. Luckily I dont 
Im not sure what will I do at that time I maybe just smile and don't say anaything.

I seldom do either - but it wouldn't bother me
The short story version hahaha!!
Have not been with ex husband now for 27yrs... his mother, our daughters granny who was still in regular contact with me, died 2 years ago...
I attended the funeral in support of my daughter, who was 27 at the time... as you would if you have empathy for your loved ones at such a sad time, to have my ex and his wife (my ex neighbour) go into drama overload... (she was so jealous, she threw her wedding ring at him and threatened divorce because I turned up...
... WTF!!... get over yourselves... it's a "FUNURAL FOR F#%*/?@! SAKE"... it's been 27 yrs... move on from your insecurities... what is there to be freaking jealous about? ... 
When I witness this type of behaviour that has been going on since we split it just confirms each time, that I absolutely did do the right thing for me... he wasn't mature then and he hasn't progressed since... she did me a favour to take him off my hands as I would have left anyway I ... I'm pleased that they are well suited
I left him because he wouldn't stop messing with her all those yrs ago when he was given the opportunity to partake in working on our marriage and he's the one that gets ticked off when I show up !!!
... go figure!......
In response to this post, maybe the fact that I smile and say hi is the problem... for him that is ... not for me... I have moved on and he made his hole a long time ago...

i smile and so does he, when, and if we cross paths, we had 13 years together. Its been 3 years now, we did as the old saying goes we drifted apart, but full filled alot of our time together doing cool stuff. There was no body involved, but it takes awhile really to find that something of the real recipe you want in life.
I'm in no rush, maybe i might find or maybe not, or maybe just actually stumble over it.
Its all good.

I see my ex on occasions to do with the kids, mostly births and birthdays these days, since they are now grown.
I am usually polite but he makes my skin crawl. He says he still wants me back, after being divorced and living in different countries for nearly 20 years.

Exactly the same with me, what the hell was I thinking?! It was his personality which was a turn off.
