Okay, so you've lost the weight and met your goal.

You've been in the gym, toning and chistling that body.

Got a new job, making more money.

You run into your ex, with your new SO. What do you say?

    "Someone call 911!" when he passes out and hits his head?

    Lol what, I don't need to say anything to my ex. I don't care what he thinks. You need to move on.

    just live your life, do your best, and do it for you. if you run into an ex, be polite, keep it light and brief, and keep moving forward.

    I hug him, we chat for a bit and then probably go our separate ways. I'm friends with most of my exes.

    So...want to get a drink later?

    It'd been 4.5 years. We work in the same field, so peace had to be made sometime.

    And I totally missed the "with your new SO" bit. Hasn't really happened.

    Why say anything? Why let the person think that you've done all of this work to better yourself as a way to get back at them? If you did, that's pretty sad - you've given someone that much power over your life. And I imagine that the encounter wouldn't be all that satisfying in the end.

    So, in short, screw 'em and move on. Don't give up your freedom to be yourself - it's your life and no one else's. Seize it.

    I think Toby Keith said it best.
    "How do you like me now?"

    ~chuckles~

    Honestly, no ex-husbands and only one ex-boyfriend I'd ever be likely to run in to and we're good friends.

    In that situation I would feel rather sad for the things that had gone wrong between us. I'd say hello, and how are you, and if s/he hadn't met the new partner before I'd do a brief introduction, but with the body language indication that we're on a walk and want to get on with it.

    Can't see why anyone needs score some sort of point with an ex. Do it for yourself, maybe?

    Nothing. My ex never cared about my weight in the first place.

    Well, that's not true. He was fascinated, in a good way, by my squishy booty cheeks. Lol.

    *if* he said anything to me instead of trying to hide in the nearest hole...
    I'd say hi and thankyou if he noted my weight loss. I've already seen him a few times after splitting and have lost 20-30 kg/ 44-66 lbs and he hasn't said anything.
    Secretly I'd be laughing my head off knowing he'd be hating me and seriously jealous. Jealous for himself (as he tries to lose weight in insane ways and it never works, he's just a pig) as he's heavier than when we were together and jealous that his new wife doesn't look half as hot as I do. I know he is very looks focused. He'd be hating me as I acheived something he always wanted me to, without him.
