Is it correct to attend a ex-boyfriend's wedding knowing everyone who knows you both will be there as well? Having been in a relationship for almost a decade with both families knowing each other like relatives, is it socially acceptable to be in the wedding, with everyone knows you are both in the healing stage after separation?

well if i was actually invited i would go. we did have a bad break up, however i dont hold grudes. i would deeinitly go to his wedding. i know he has 2 little boys and is in love with another. i would just want to wish him well, and congradulate him.
on another note i seen him and his family in walmart and he acted as if he didnt want to speak to me, so i dont think i would be invited.
or maybe his new love wouldnt be able to take him speaking to his ex girlfriend, anyway i wish him well in all he does.

I would. Letting things go and choosing to move on healtily is easier said than done. But having a good relationship with your ex is always a good feeling. Sometimes, they can give you life advice that you wouldn't be able to get otherwise. Also,if you go to your ex's wedding, you can bet that he/she will be at your to reciprocate the congratulations.
It is definitely worth the effort.

If you're comfortable going, then it should matter whether it's right or wrong. Were you invited? Do you plan on making a scene?
If you were invited and you don't plan on making a scene, go. Go and enjoy it and wish the happy couple well. Then go home, put on some good rock music and dance the night away as you forget him and then remember why he's an ex-boyfriend to begin wtih. Concentrate on THOSE reasons and you'll be okay.
Personally, I wouldn't go to any of my ex boyfriends' weddings. I woudln't pee in their ear if their brains were on fire unless I could pee gasoline, but that's just my way of thinking. I would cross the street to avoid them. There is a reason they are in the past and they stay there for that reason.
