I think I'll rather let her say hi to me when she sees me hehehe! Just joking!Well I'll say hi to her, I think nothing is wrong saying hi, it's been a long time no hear from both of us. I'll ask her how are you too. If she answer me just doing fine, and she's happy, well I'll be happy for her. How about you guys? Have a nice day to all of you!

i don't think so as i had a really bad breakup. My first reaction would be to duck and try and avoid my ex but if that's not possible, then I would just walk past her without a second glance

i have no hard feelings towards my ex boyfriend. if i ran into him in the mall i would say hi if it was a mutual ..like if he noticed me too. but if he didnt notice me or if he is across the mall or somethign im not going to go out of my way to say hi..

If I were to see my ex in the mall I would stop and say hi to him for a short time. But I wouldn't spend a lot of time talking to him or telling him too much about my life.

Yes I will greet him hi. We have parted as friends with my ex so there is no problem with it. Past is past and I believe there is really nothing wrong with greeting him when I see him at the mall.

Hello, that really depends on what and how did we close the relationship. If we had a good closure then i wouldn't have qualms in saying hi for old times sake but if we didn't close the relationship well or that person hurt me too much then i would refrain saying hi to this person unless he open up first and called my attention then i would just smile and not make any further conversations with him.

I have been approached by exes in the past. It happened recently. It was kind of awkward as he was drunk and there had just been a conversation with my lover and a friend about how we might possibly run into people we would rather not see. Then he walks up. I was caught off guard and didn't know what to say because of the timing. Then he volunteers that he was my ex, since he thought I didn't know who he was. There was an awkward silence, and then he walked off. I do not think there is anything wrong with it addressing someone that you used to date, just be prepared for a possibly awkward situation.

Oh, HELL NO! My last ex actually works in a mall and I would hate to ever see his beady eyes, hawk nose and cold lips again. Yeah, there was a time when I was in love with him, but that was before I saw his true colours and the real intentions of his heart. I can't be kind to a man who thinks himself higher than women in general, sorry, nope, no can do.

i got to think my ex would ignore me if we seen each other in a mall.
we had quite a bad break up and parted on quite bad blood.
it would be nice to meet her again and see how she is getting on , wonder if she has a good job, kids a new current man and all that sort thing
it was few years ago we broke up have tried to locate her online but never had any joy
so after seeing this post i might see if i can dig her up and get chatting

As for me, normally I will walk up to her also and ask her how is she doing if she is alone but however, if she is with another guy, I will avoid going up to her unless she come and approach me because I do not want to create any unnecessary misunderstanding as which guy will not be at least a bit jealous or unhappy if they saw their current girlfriend ex boyfriend... Also, if she is alone and I am alone also, I will also ask her to go for a tea or lunch together because we can still be good friends even though we had already broken up. I always believe that when two persons cannot become couple, they can always become good friends.

Yes i will say hi to him. It means everything that has happened to us those past years ago nothing mean to me now. If he talks to me it is fine to talk to him also but for a moment and nothing more. There is nothing wrong to be friendly to him just for "friend" only. No follow ups! So funny hah! but that is what I'm gonna do if that was happen to me, if ever. Thanks God and up to now I cannot experienced that situations. And for sure I don't want too...
Happy New Year friend!
