This is kinda weird, I saw my ex on fb with his new chick. He seemed very happy. We have been separated for 2 years and divorced for 5 months. I guess it's safe to say that some where in the back of my mind I thought we would one day get back together and be a family for our 2.5 year old son... I also knew that by now he for sure would be dating but nothing too serious, but guess its serious now a days when you post a pic on your default on fb, right? Anyways.... I use to think to myself that if I ever saw him with someone else I would lose it! But I didn't.... Yes it made me think, and maybe just a lil bummed out... But it definitely made me realize there's no going back. I sat in my room and cried- I felt a sense of lost- almost like I was grieving for him because it hurt- I missed what he had but knew it will never come back it will never be the same and he was gone and all I thought about was the memories we shared.... I wasn't thinking of the future or wished him harm ... I think this is a good sign that finally after 2 years I am moving on.

You let it out appropriately.... Of course there are going to be mix feelings; you guys share a bond and past. Start evaluating yourself and see if you are ready to get back out there and not stay behind.

I have a son that's almost three too... I actually blocked his father on facebook and the girl that I know he's dating now because seeing them together is something I don't think I'm ready for or can emotionally handle. Seriously what you saw must have been tough, the fact that you are being so positive about it inspires me. I hope I can move on too. Thank you!

Every girl I see my ex with I feel bad for them because I know his ways. I just don't care and I think it's because I'm better off without someone like that in my life. I'm going places and he's stuck doing nothing with his self. Sometimes it's good to cry and get those emotions out b/c it can build up and turn into something bad. If you ever need a place to talk or vent with other mothers check out my new FB page I made for single mothers https://www.facebook.com/pages/Single-Mothers-United/401318573247625

Well, crying it out is a good step in moving on. Props that you were able to do that in private :) You know it didn't work out and rather than moving backwards, you know have confirmation that you are can keep moving forward. There is a great guy out there for you and it isn't that guy. His Loss! So just keep being a good Mom and taking care of you. You'll see. One day someone will come along and make you realize why it never worked out with him.

Best Wishes :)
