Mostly just Facebook.
I spent my pre-marriage years on the west coast, so most of my exes still live there. Although, funny thing...through Facebook, I found out that one ex, lives out here now. I can actually see his house from a shop that I visit about once a month, and he worked on the same realty team that sold us our house! |

| He moved into the area. Bumped into him, literally, when I was texting and walking at Union Station. I was speechless (hadn't seen him in 10 years). Just couldn't believe it. We caught up, oooh'd over our kids' pictures, it was actually kinda cool. |

| FB and then he started wanting to text me. Ummmm no thanks buddy. He claimed it was bc he hasn't spoken our native language to someone in a while. He also started commenting on my fb pics about how beautiful I still am. It was time to defriend. |

| Reading my hometown paper I found out that my ex's family recently donated millions to my alma mater and had an auditorium named after them. |

I was in his wedding.
Awkward, but... Actually, just awkward. |

OP, I can relate- the guy is not an ex, exactly, but he is the first guy I ever kissed at Dewey Beach. Our kids are in the same preschool, though not the same class. We had a funny semi-awkward conversation about it early on and now he's just someone I say hi to, every day.

| Collection agencies started calling my father and brother looking for my ex-husband. I had to call my ex and tell him to deal with his financial issues so my family would stop being harassed! |

| My ex-husband, we had no kids and he treated me terribly. Had no contact with him for 2 years then started getting phone calls (no one would answer). Shortly after that he contacted me by email a week before I got married. It was a long email in which he talked about how I was the one he always loved, he wanted to be friends. I never responded to the email (happened 9 years ago). I dont want to invite him in my life in any sort of way. |

| Similar to you my ex from college... who broke my heart and took me years to get over, has a child at the same elementary and we live about 5 blocks from each other. AWKWARD |

My XH just moved to the area (we share a child, he has visitation) and 2 days later, my ex-fiance contacted me on FB. I hadn't spoken to him in 2 years.
Both were abusive, the XH in every way but physical, the ex-fiance was physical as well. During my divorce, XH hacked into my email account and contacted ex-fiance to try and bolster his claim that I was mentally unstable and an unfit mother. It didn't work, but was a great scare tactic when they both started harrassing me online and over the phone. I had temporary RO's out on both of them for a while. I didn't think the timing of the ex-fiance was a coincidence and hadn't realized he wasn't blocked on FB (XH is and has been for a while). He is now blocked and I pray every day I won't run into either one of them by chance. |

Just FYI, most of the "collection" agencies who call relatives are scammers. I had an experience with debt collectors calling my own dad and my in-laws about an old debt allegedly owed to sprint wireless for 5K. I never had a sprint phone, it was not my debt. Total scam. They think you'll be embarrassed into paying without asking too many questions. So go easy on your ex...it might not be a real thing. |
