Huh...my ex is gonna be a dad

I'm not UNhappy for him...but it's weird that I am not happy for him. It's odd. We were together a long time, bought a home together, then he just "checked out" and we decided, after a long time of pretending nothing was wrong, to go our seperate ways. He really pulled some crap on me, and it took me a long time to get to a good place with him. I almost always grab a drink with him when I'm in Calgary...but there is always this slightly uncomfortable vibe. We still have a ton of mutual friends so I have always made the effort to stay civil. I never wanted kids...but he was the only person I think I would have done that for - cause he wanted it. Now someone else is doing it...I don't know. It's so weird.

Not sure if there is a point here...just rambling.

Re: Huh...my ex is gonna be a dad

  • yeah that would be weird... Maybe the uncomfortable vibe is the leftover feelings? ANyways I am always uncomfortable around guys i'm attracted to  (other than DH!) cuz I feel it's betraying him.

    I think I have alot of things I wanted to say to him then, but lacked the courage to, and now it's would seem like it was coming out of left field (and out of my insecurity). It's just weird that he is living "our life" with another person. I know we bth love our spouses and the life we've created, but there is an e;lement of "what if" when it comes to he and I.
  • I think what you are feeling is completely normal.

    I think if my ex and I ended on better terms than we did I would similiar to how you are feeling.

     I'm sure it seems very weird.

  • My exbf and I had a similar relationship (long term, buying property etc) and he recently had a baby with his wife. I am happy for him because he is happy in his life. More than anything that is what I wanted for him and really I wasn't able to give him that (nor was he able to give me the same).
