Ex girlfriend is engaged and getting married

My Ex of less than one year is engaged and getting married.
A little more info we used to live together for almost 2 years. When we first met we clicked my family loved her she loved them then it got bad from both sides.

Thoughts anyone?

Probably a blessing in disguise, but who's to argue a strong emotional connection? I went out with a woman who I knew was in the middle of a divorce. After a couple dates, I told her I was also going through a divorce. Oddly, she pulled away immediately. When I finally got the chance to discuss it with her, she said she was leery of dating me while I was still married. In addition to that double-standard, she had just accepted an engagement proposal from someone else, before her own divorce was final.

Totally weird, but if she's happy, and your ex is happy, wish them the best and go after something better yourself. If you had trouble with the family, that would have made things very difficult down the line.

My ex-husband was re-married before the ink on our divorce papers was dry. It happens.


He's got a kid now and seems very happy. Wish her the best (and mean it!) and move on.

my ex getting married and talking about about having more kids with the next guy was what finally kicked me in the nuts, put the final nail in the coffin and made me accept that it was over and move on.

Actually, after her, there were a string of girls I'd dated that ended up getting married or very serious with someone after our brief time together. I was starting to feel like the Dane Cook movie.

Yes brother a blessing in disguise. That is a crazy story you got there, i hope everything worked out for the best. my family loved her I'm central American and she is Filipino so yeah her family was not happy that she was dating out side of her race.

My ex is about 3 years older than i am so she needs to settle down fast before she gets too old.

I feel you on that my brother. Every chick I've dated before her has kids and a family, then they get all fat..lol

other option nobody mentioned is...find out where wedding is and when and bust in when they ask for objections...you know, Hollywood style. That could go one of two ways.

Well I hope you took pictures/videos of her stank box while you were together. You'll need them to build her roboclone post-singularity, it then won't be an issue missing her the way you do now. Take your vitamins and smoke plenty of marijuana until then.

Thanks you guys. it's been so long that i haven't heard from her and to hear that it was kinda shocking. I have moved on. not like her but the normal way by myself. she follows the saying that goes " to get over somebody, get on top of somebody else". -word

All of my ex's are married now (happens when you get old ). It's just going to happen. Give her one more thought, wish her well, and just move on to your next adventure.

Are you saying that it seems too soon for her to have found someone else serious after your relationship ended? Sometimes, one just knows that the other person is the one after a few dates... and maybe this is the case with your ex and her fiancee.
