No........rarely think of my ex and if I do.......I squash it......there is no backwards just forwards!!!

ok - truth is i do think about them. i love them and they still have a special place in my heart always will. but i'm like that.
they do not interfere with my current life however. there is no conflict just pleasant memories.

Once in awhile.
One isn't doing so well now and I worry about her a little.
No interest in rekindleing or anything like that.
I just don't see how if you truely cared for someone for years that even years later you can't help but care a little when things get bad for them.

No, I wouldn't want anything to do with either of my ex's. I do think they are kind, talented, good men. One's that I would say to a girlfriend if they were interested that they might check out. But when I ended the relationships with them, I was done.

Is it the same in the reverse? No.

One asked me if it was okay that he was dating someone else (I guess on the off chance that I would change my mind and want to get back together?, not because he felt he needed permission). Later he wanted to run it by me that he was getting married (I guess still hoping I'd change my mind and want him back). A few years after he married, he apologized to me for about five hours and said he was so sorry, that he didn't know what he had when he was with me and wished he had tried harder when it mattered. It meant alot, those words. We were young. And his wife had become a crystal meth addict who apparently was pretty cruel to live with. But it was too late.

Another gets all sentimental about this or that when he comes in the house, when the kids aren't around, when we're alone. To be honest, it gives me the creeps. I spent most of eleven years with a man I didn't love, for the sake of two children that we have together.

The thing is, if you don't appreciate what you have when you have it, meaning being committed, caring about communication, not taking a person for granted, trying to make that person feel special just like you did when you met, things end.

And in my opinion, my mistake in both those relationships was falling for someone who was very attracted to me when the feeling just wasn't there in return. I made the mistake of not knowing my own self enough to just stay clear of their undying devotion and attentiveness when I didn't have the same feelings or attraction to them. I did try in the relationships, but when they did not, it made sticking around feel alot less rewarding.

Brian,what are you tweaking on under that counter top?

See a mouse? lol

Looking for the turkey

Andreww

I like the sense of humor.

Hmmm What I can't resist about the ex I would say wanting to take her to mexico and then leave..just me...leave

Just the pity I feel for her. She hasn't let go, even though she remarried. If she doesn't wake up,son & daughter in law are going to limit her time with them & the grandkids. Hope they don't have to take that route.

When my husband took his own life back in 1986, our son was only 22 months old. He's 23 years old now and looks exactly like his dad.

Forgot to mention that he was my Ex at the time he died, he had left us a week prior.

Of course I think about the men that have walked with me for a while!

All enhanced the Who of me. One beautiful man, shared the gift of children with me...another taught me how to embrace the all of me...no control, no ownership...another taught me acceptance.

I often think of these men, and say a silent thankyou, for contributing to the person I am today.

I do he's been remarried for 10 yrs. and still has hopes for us.I find that very sad for both him and his wife.He's the father of my boys when I look at them I see him.I have no more feelings for him but I do feel sorry for him

I think about the last guy I had a 6 yr. relationship with often...I also think how much better off I am now that I left him. He is a verbally abusive alcoholic. I NEVER want to live with THAT much stress in my life ever again.

As for the ex husband, I too can relate about seeing his face in my children's faces.

Yeah I think about how much my ex annoys me!!!!!!!!!!

I agree with Jess to an extent, but I have made some really bad choices, and this last one was no exception. You have to try to move on. When I start getting a nostalgic, I think of all his faults and know that they more than out weigh the good things. I will always love them, I can't help it. I am always the one to leave. I know when it is time. Maybe someday we will be with someone we will spend time with for the rest of our lives.

we meaning us here on the site...the ex's are long gone and this last is a ghost that will soon disappear.

I only think about my ex when his truck payment is late

i refuse to let an x control any part of me

other than letting them control my not letting them to control me


or

somethin like that
