What do you do? Say whats up and rid of the elephant in the room, or avoid the conversation entirely the next time you hang out haha

    My ex-husband and I saw each other on OkCupid and liked each other as a joke. It was funny.

    ^^ Thats the site... I was asked to Like him that we are a 90% Match and I was going to hit "Like" to be funny...but then I thought just avoid it all together so it doesnt become weird

    It's only funny if you're comfortable with being exes. I helped him write his profile and start messaging girls, so it wasn't weird for us. :D (Guys are so bad at messaging girls...)

    Avoid the topic w/him. But show his profile to all my girlfriends and laugh hysterically at his goofy pictures, highlight and circle, "honest, likeable, fun, friendly." laugh some more. Get a GF he doesn't know to Favorite him, chat with him, get him interested, set up a time to meet then stand him up. HAHA.

    Wait.. Wow.. Angry much?? That sounds terrible... bawwwhaaa. >:) LOL.

    yeah I was. it is what it is. always happened when the relationship was crashing and burning anyhow. one of them was here on MFP too and it was a big ordeal after we split.

    My friend met a bunch of people on this site, I called him a MFP **** for a while...but he ended up just marrying a chick he met on here. Way to go MFP

    Whoa. Well, think of it this way. There is absolutely no way that you could give him what he needed. Without purchasing something, of course.

    Lol it sure did explain a lot haha

    Personally I'd be happy for her!! An ex is usually an ex for a reason!!! If I see her on a dating site then surely I'm only doing the same thing? :)

    Yeah, I'm in a sentamental mood tonight!!! lol

    My serious relationships burn brightly, but can only end in fiery, apocalyptic wrecks. "Hanging out" afterwards would be extraordinarily dangerous. But if I were to see an ex-paramour on a dating site, I'd just think "oh, good; she still seems to function normally".

    Yup! I honestly believe that an ex is usually just that for a reason!!
