I wouldn't tell them anything. None of their business........BUT, if I happen to ACCIDENTLY take a picture of me and my new flame sucking on each other and I happen to ACCIDENTLY send that pic to them, it would purely be an accident:wink:

but i'd have to say scream it out loud as you push over the porta-potty they're using... may not be the most effective... but at least you'll get a good laugh out of it!!!

Most of you don't like your exes, huh? I guess since I'm still friends with some of the people I've dated, I'd like to find out from them when they're dating someone else, rather than finding out from someone else.

:heart: How should you break the news to your most recent ex (who seems to still be interested in you) that you have started dating someone else?:heart:



If they are your ex, then there is no reason to tell them that you are dating someone else. Its none of their business.

That is what EX is all about.

EX means EX. No means no. frustrated

If they are "still interested in you" (meaning nosy about what you are doing) and they ask you out again, you just tell them no thanks.

Don't make excuses like telling them that you are busy or that you have other plans because they will ask again and you will have to make another 'excuse.'

Just be sure that they know that they are your EX and you are not stringing them along so you won't waste their time.

Nope. You don't. That is my point.

EX means EX!rant

If they don't like it that you are dating someone else that is their problem. If they bother you about it... then your EX becomes your stalker. laugh

I like to ask if they have found someone else. If they say yes (regardless of if its true) then be excited for them. If they say no, then show that you are sad for them. Perhaps a "ohh too bad".

Facial expression can be subtle (ie you dont have to go over the top) and yet tell everything that needs to be said.

Just tell them while talking about your plans... say oh and Sam and I are going out next Friday? I met Sam two weeks ago and we've been dating...

We've been dating 2 weeks!!! When were you going to tell me???

If they are your ex, and you are not interested in them any longer, it really isn't any of their business if you are dating or not.

I am so glad you said this. Telling and ex your personal business sounds like insecurity to me.
If and Ex is bothering you deal with it without dragging an innocent person into it. All it takes is three words; "Leave me alone."

Even if I liked an Ex I did not see it necessary to broadcast my personal romantic life. I don't know how all guys feel about being gossiped about by their girlfriends but many of the men I know would see that as imature behavior and a violation of their privacy.

Your ex, who you suspect is still interested in you... the kindest thing to do is to say nothing because they no longer have the privilege of this private information about your life. If they flat out ask you say yes, I am dating again & leave it at that. It is your business.

Send her/him a Wedding Invitation, and ask her to be the Maid of Honor, or him to be the Best Man..ha ha!! j/k

Not sure on how obligated you are to your ex in telling him/ or her that you are dating again.
I mean it just depends. But if he/she asks, then tell them the truth.

1) Be close to the east coast
2) Knowing she's a stones throw from the west coast.

They are an 'ex' so I'm confused. Are they stalking you or something??? Just tell them you broke up for a reason and move on???
