I need to let this out! I have been living in the house I am in now with my boyfriend of 1 1/2 years for about 8 months now. I have been jogging/walking in the neighborhood and have gone this one route and past this house. Just today I saw this guy outside in the front yard of one of the houses. He looked SUPER familiar. I looked again and it was my ex-boyfriend who I was with before my current boyfriend.

I texted him to confirm (I memorize numbers and then I can't un-memorize them) and he confirmed it was him. I have no interest in him and want nothing to do with him. I feel anger and hate towards him for wasting my time and the way he treated me.

This is just so surreal. Do you any of you live close to your ex?

I am just kind of in a state of shock...I put him out of mind so long ago.

I told him that I will be going that way still and that I want nothing to do with him. I said I will pretend (if he is out there) like he is a total stranger.

    Seriously.

    I think I would have just kept going, not contacted him and went on my way?

    I do find it odd that you texted him at all. Or presumed that he would care if you would be jogging by. You've all moved on so it's irrelevant. !?!?!?

    Yeah. I think the fact that you contacted him after is really weird.

    I hate when people create drama just to rant/whine about it.

    Right. I was thinking they ran into each other at the supermarket or something and he was being a douche to her! but if he's just minding his own business outside his house... well...

    Had to laugh at this one!!! I totally get the poster however, I wouldnt call him to tell him I wouldnt speak to him. I wouldnt have just ignored him into the next century.

    lol@ her texting him and talking to him. Oh to be young again. I am glad I moved 350 miles away from my ex (abusive relationship of 12 years) WITH the person I left him for :) I doubt I'll run into him anywhere.

    exactly.
    reminds me of something I watched on the tube a while ago, forget the specifics. Some chick calling her boytoy to tell him she wasn't speaking to him and giving him the silent treatment, by calling him.

    Got drama? Call 1-800-springer, we'll make you famous

    Precisely. The opposite of "love" is NOT "hate," it is indifference. And you are still hating him, but you need to let go because it is not fair to your current BF...
