I saw my ex gf today. It's been a long time since we dated, but it was a very emotional relationship. I hate to see her with a family now, a baby in her arms...blaghhhhh

Thought I was long over this stuff. Makes me feel like I haven't done anything with my life since her and have only gone downhill...

I've been in another relationship since that's pretty serious. and it's been a few years as I said. Don't know why seeing ex with a baby in her arms triggered me so much.

I'm fine, just... blagh

Yuck, even when you've "moved" on it still sucks to have to confront your past loves. Last time I seen the person I was with for 3 yrs before LK and I got back together it made me feel all weird inside. Trying to relate to this person as an aquaintense rather than the way we'd been was very, very strange. I was glad to hear he'd moved putt state. Even tho I was happily married with 2 amazing kids, still made me wonder if he thought something like thank god, missed a bullet with that one or such.
I'm sure your life is really good without them. Relationships end for a reason

I wasn't in love with her--she was a nasty lying cheater and whoever has her now can keep her. No depth, and despite her educational background---NO BRAINS. The last thing I want is for her to reproduce. I wonder who "the baby daddy" is... I wonder if she knows. Actually, I wonder if she cares. The poor baby is the one who gets stiffed here.

That's what makes it so strange though--since I wasn't in love with her, it still bothered me to see her. Perhaps I am jealous since I have not been doing so well in my personal life the last few months. My life will be getting better shortly, but situations outside of my control have made me unrecognizable to the person I used to be in many regards, and I feel as though I have gone down hill (I have). That's just my depressed mood talking though...I can't compare my life to hers as we are completely different people with completely different backgrounds and circumstances in life.

I don't like to ruminate on ex's, but perhaps it's good to know where I've been so that I can see where I can improve. Thanks.

Well, I feel better today. I think I've just been sleep deprived which makes me more sensitive. I'm not going to have blagh's over a relationship that's been over for 5 years. Apples and oranges.

I'm not going to have blagh's over a relationship that's been over for 5 years. Apples and oranges. But see it did something, it showed you how far you've come and that your taste has improved if nothing else. I wish ex's had to move far away after they were ex's so that there are no awkward encounters. I hope you got some sleep and realized how much better off you are ~hugs~
