Do you stop & hold a small conversation?...say hi while you walk pass them...or simply act like they don't exist? |
It depends on the ex. I'd talk to a few of them but one in particular, I'd run to the other side of the street and pray she didn't spot me. |
I would never act like someone didn't exist, at the very least I would say "hello" and then keep going. |
I stop and spend a few awkward minutes saying "hi how are you?" We all know that no one cares. |
Depends on the ex. Some I'd stop and chat with. At least one I'd do just about anything to avoid. He's scum. |
I get into these really intense relationships with women. The last thing I want to do is bump into one of them. |
I would say hello. I would not stop unless I was co-parenting with the person or genuinely missed them and wished to chat. |
I'd make sure to include how great things are |
I would simply say hello at best, even just a nod of acknowledgment. Especially if I was with my new partner, I would in no way want to upset them.
If the tables were flipped I would not want my SO to stop and hold a long drawn out conversation in front of me. I would do the same respect for him. |
Depends on which Ex. I have one I never want to run into again, alone or with anyone else. Most of them I would be polite - say hello, acknowledge, maybe even introduce them. I have one that I'd fantasize about running into and rubbing it in her nose, but that's just revenge fantasy...I'm sure I'd be polite, if we couldn't pretend we hadn't noticed each other. |
Always let hem say hell first, get flustered and blush, say hello back. And then try my best to look disinterested and keep going. |
I would say (and have said) hello and probably have a brief, cordial conversation (depending on the ex). I have one ex who wouldn't respond to my greeting and completely ignored me. The others are all mature enough to have moved on from anything that happened 13+ years ago |
I would be happy to catch up, but he lives on the other side of the globe. |
It all depends on how the relationship ended.
If it ended amicably, then by all means I see no reason not to say "Hello" and wave. If it ended acrimoniously, then I just ignore them. Either way, I hope I am having a good hair day. ![]() |
