I dont think i will run away when i see my ex lover by coincident because there is no reason to hide from her at all.We are done for each other and no reasons to hate each other and remaining as friends is the best way to solve it all.what is the use of hating each other after all the loving relationship is over?i dont see the point of not talking or running away from each other after a sweet or sour memory you have with him or her...

I do salute my ex-lover when I see him but i really feel uncomfortable in his presence and find it better to avoid him. I too don't want to remember the past experience with him so I better skip his presence. It is really disturbing to be in such a situation, but we cannot escape it if it has to happen.

Luckily I dont ever see my ex. When I did see him for the first time after we broke up it was like 3 years later and he wsn't too happy about it. I ran into him at bar but we didn't speak. It was hard to see him again and not be able to talk like friends. It felt really awkward. If I saw him now I'd probably just ignore him unless he came up to me.

It is not a big issue. Nothing will happen. I would rather say 'hi' or wish him 'good evening', ask him what he is doing now......have a friendly talk. But, your case is different. I had a friend (former room mate) who tried hard to forget his ex-bf. I have seen closely - it is a very difficult task.

I ran into my ex-bf twice since we ended our relationship. The first time was on the street and i just said hello to him. and second time was on a restaurant. I hope i will never met him again in the rest of life since every time i met him the past memory will come back, it is so sad.....

Hello Hanah .
I do meet my ex a lot , because we are at the same hospital I usually ignore her , and keep walking or doing whatever I'm doing , and If I saw her from a far distance I would do my best to avoid her, but if I had to come near her I will just greet her and keep walking

I will act casual. Civil if I'm with someone or if his with someone. A simple "hi!" or "how are you?" if we're both alone then I'll go on do whatever I was doing before we bumped into each other. It will be very hard if you still have feelings for that person especially if you that person with his or her new partner. If you already are in a relationship with another person it would be better to ignore your past flame because it might make your new partner feeling uneasy or even jealous. It that case eventhough you're through with your old flame, he or she still hurts you, right?

I will not do anything. I actually experienced seeing an ex-lover many times. It really hurts when I see an ex who was just recently my boyfriend, but I ignore my feelings because I have pride and I don't want my ex to see me breaking down. If he chats with me when he sees me then I'll also chat with him and show him that I am totally over him.

Frankly speaking, i dont have ex-lover. But if i have, i think i would talk to him face to face. Because i don't want myself missed this good chance to talk with him after break. I strongly believe that couple can be good friend after break.

The last time I saw my ex-boyfriend I called to him and I regretted every minute of it. Not because I still love him no way. My love for him ends before I end the relationship but because he still has not gotten over the fact that I am not going back to him and so his jealousy was displayed that night and I never liked it one bit. I have to keep on reminding him that we are through. So this was a lesson for me. Whenever I see him I will just avoid him. My advice to you is to forgive him and move one. You are only hurting yourself more by remembering the memories of this relationship. He maybe saw you but wasn't interested to come and talked with you. You have given him the upper hand. He now knows that you are still attached to him. Healed yourself my friend there are good, better and best but to find him you have to let go of the past.

This has happened to me, I just acted casually. I acknowledged his presence and proceed what I am doing (pretending)lol. I think the best thing to do on this scenario is to pretend that you are not affected by his presence and that you are at a better disposition right now.
