WHY did I just do that?!

I admit it.. I feel guilt/shame still for my first marriage ending.  Yes, I feel I had valid reasons to get out and can't regret what I did, but I still feel badly about it all.

So stupid me... I sometimes Facebook-search my ex, hoping he'll have a profile that says he's married or in a relationship or something. (I've always feared he'll be Mr. 40-Years-Old-Living-at-Home-with-the-'Rents-Playing-Video-Games. Tongue Tied)

He didn't come up, but his brother did.  Who's now married.  I felt that kick-in-the-gut feeling for my ex... he had to be at the wedding, all the posh people whispering behind his back about "That's C's brother... you know, the one who's wife left him."  (I'm sure there was all manner of talk about what a beyotch I am for having left him, but that's besides the point.)

My ex was a lot of things, but I felt bad for him... no one should be stuck in that position with the little, suit-and-hatted, Queen's English bitties gossiping and pitying them. Sad

Re: WHY did I just do that?!

  • Do you know that your ex is still single though?
  • No.  But it's one of those things that unless I see a picture or something, I'd be surprised.

    Hell, I'd be surprised if he wasn't living at home with his parents again, playing video games all night long, and living like he was still a high schooler. Confused
