I was at a restaurant tonight and ran into the brother of my ex. We talked for a few minutes. My ex was married a year ago and just had a baby. Nothing remarkable except he married an hispanic girl and his brother said she was a "large girl."

Now there is NOTHING wrong with that except if you knew my ex. He was VERY prejudiced and always dated the beautiful size 2 women.(not sure why he liked me?! :confused: ;) ). To hear he married an hispanic who is plus-sized, has me FLOORED!

His brother said it shocked the whole family. Ever so polite I asked him if he thought it would last, (what was I thinking), he just said "well you know him". In other words NO!

So nosy me did some internet searching. He was married last March 1 and his brother said they "just had a baby." I'm thinking maybe he got her pregnant?! He also said they bought a house and told me where. More internet searching, found a house purchased by his dad. Nothing that I'd ever expect him to live in.

Wow! I'm just floored. I only hope he is happy. This is the one that I really loved and could have seen myself married to but then I met dh. ;)

Anyone else wonder what happened to their ex's??? Have you ever looked one up? Called them? I really would love to see him. We moved back to this area after 6 years. I wish I'd run into him. I'm still in shock.

LOL

i always wondered what had happened to my ex from high school...we had spoken once or twice after our break up...we'd had a very unusual situation when we were dating. he and i had begun dating and after about 7-8 months, he moved in with my family and my parent's became his legal guardians...things happened...we ended up splitting...he moved back with his parents (there's way more to this story but i won't bore you!)...

i had heard things through the grapevine about him off and on through the years...i finally figured out what happened to him...we ended up getting married about a year and a half ago! :teeth:
 
I'm just glad I bumped in to two old HS boyfriends after I got engaged. :teeth: Is that mean?
 

My ex doesn't bring his currents around me. Not yet anyway.
 
There is one ex that I wonder what happened to. He was an ex but we were very very close friends after we broke up. We were best best friends. My current DH though didn't like him at all so it literally came down to chooseing... I chose DH because I loved him. I wonder what happened to him and if hes happy...He lives out of state now though.
 
Thankfully, I don't run into my exes. I didn't date much anyway. I've never looked one up, never called them or anything. There's 1 that asks my best friend about me from time to time. I tell her she needs to tell him I died or something so he'll quit asking her about me.
 
Pembo, The only ex I had before I got married...the last I heard is now a minister in the Chicago area. He got married and has 5 daughters:eek:

TC:cool:
 
I would like to see what he looks like now! I have not seen him for 25 years. He did communicate me with a sympathy card when my father passed away 6 years ago; I was floored to see that handwriting again on that card...I knew it was him. He lives in Virginia, I think.
 
So nosy me did some internet searching. He was married last March 1 and his brother said they "just had a baby." I'm thinking maybe he got her pregnant?! He also said they bought a house and told me where. More internet searching, found a house purchased by his dad. Nothing that I'd ever expect him to live in.

Umm...this whole paragraph is screaming STALKER! ;) ;) ;) :p Is that why he is your "ex??" :p :p :p Of course I'm just kidding but you cracked me up because I have a friend that would have done the EXACT same thing!

I hate to run into ex's. There is a reason why they are ex's and I'd like to keep it that way. Now maybe after I get engaged.....:crazy:
 
Ever so polite I asked him if he thought it would last,
I am trying to think of what could possibly be considered a polite way to ask if something thinks their brother's marriage will last?:confused: I would be highly insulted if anyone asked me if one of my siblings were in an unstable marriage....especially if they just had a baby...
 
I know what happen to my Ex husband he just moved accross town and forgot about the kids and I LOL. He is not doing well (I dont mean health wise just money wise)since we divorced so I must admit I do laugh alot while alone in the car when I think about him .

Now the one I wonder about I hope is still trying to figure out why his luck is so damn bad! Lots of bad wishes sent to him from me
 
Well, one of my exes was arrested last year for a murder that happened 20 years ago!! :eek:

I dated him in 1987, and he apparantly committed this murder in 1982 I believe, when he was in high school. He killed a classmate who everyone thought had run away.

Through DNA testing they only recently traced the murder back to my ex.

Of course I was shocked and floored to learn I had been dating a murderer. I knew nothing about it of course. Pretty scary.
 
I was so young when I started dating my dh that I had only had one other real boyfriend. I do sometimes wonder if he achieved his goals in life but other than that I don't really give him much thought.
 
My on again off again ex from College is running a daytrading brokerage in the NY area. He's also a big wig with the security and trade commission.

When we met in College he was a Chem Engineering major. He dropped out of school, moved back to NJ and became a broker. Even in those early days he had tons of "toys" and worked like a maniac. A couple years ago I got curious about him, fearing that he may have worked at the World Trade Center. That's when I discovered what happened to him, how he moved up in the ranks big time.

He's probably worth mega bucks now but I'm still not sorry I said goodbye to him. I never really trusted him in the relationship and he proved it to me more than once.

Now that is scary! Wow.

As for me I avoid all of my ex's. I'm waiting till I'm on people magazine as the Sexiest Man Alive then I'm gonna send all of them a copy. :teeth: Either that or when I'm on the Forbes 400 list.
 
I saw my ex-boyfriend after 30+ years in a mall when I went home to visit about five years ago. He looked terrible, was still dressing the same way he did in the 70s.

My mother kept sending me his marriage announcements, he married three times we know of, at least that were published in the paper. He actually had a marriage announcement sent to me the first time he married, like I would send him a gift!!! It was gloating I think, as we had been engaged and he dumped me for this rich girl...I was the big winner in being rid of him I am sure!!!

He died last year and Mom sent me his obituary.

I would never have considered calling him or phoning him ever. I had no desire to hear from him again and he never called or anything after we broke up. My DH did not even like my Mom sending his marriage announcements, but I thought it quite funny actually.

I have always believed in letting sleeping dogs lie, let the past be the past. In my opinion it is never good to open up old relationships, they ended for a reason normally, so let them go...that is just my two cents.
 
I got in touch with my college ex about 5 years after we broke up. We call each other every now and then. I'm glad I don't have to wonder any more. Every once in a while I start thinking again that we were too hasty in splitting up. Then I call him again, and I get over those thoughts real quick-like. :cool: So, it's all good. I'm glad we can talk now.
 
I think I made the hole deep enough so he won't be found.


I only have one ex that I have bitter feelings for, he turned out to be the bus driver who took a group of us to a very high end party at a very fancy hotel. It was so nice to rub his nose in it. As far as I know he still drives a bus and has been divorced twice, arrested once and is a total loser.
 
I don't know about any of my exes before my ex-husband and I don't really wonder about them, but I do wonder about a guy who I really liked and who liked me (but I was blind at the time....it took thinking about it and talking about it to other people afterwards to realize that he did...He was the type that went for the ski bunnies so I didn't think he'd ever go for me.) He was from Sarasota, Florida and I know he went back there but that was almost 9 years ago...he had had a very screwed up life before he left there for Colorado but he definitely planned to fix it when he got back and I'm really, really hoping that he did. He's also part of the reason that I've always had a thing for Floridian men.
