Well now on to the crux of the story…..I was diving to my storage unit where I keep a few of my belongings, and having driven by it many times over, I noticed my ex’s name on a shingle outside of a business building. I did a double take. Later I went to the computer and looked it up. Indeed it was true. She is a practicing social worker at an office less than three miles from my parent’s home. She has been practicing at that location for at least 6 years. Wait, it gets more interesting. I did some digging around and found out she married a musician who teaches music, she has one kid, and bought a home less than 5 miles in the town where my family and I live!!! She has lived in that home for at least six years too. She has been to my parent’s home numerous times and knows full well where I live and that my family clan lives here in this town - cousins and all. I am so surprised we have not bumped into one another all these years. Aside from late night grocery shopping and long hours of study, I rarely outside of work ever shop in town. A little about her: she comes from a upper middle class family (daddy lawyer, mommy housewife with big inheritance), brother executive (big bucks), entitled princess, never lived outside of a short drive from her parents in Upstate NY. The town I live in is a suburb of Rochester NY. I am shocked to say the least. Why?!!! Why of all places on this earth did she ever have the temerity, gall, and nerve to move so close to where I live? She knows I live here.
Why not? She is not associated with you anymore. She is free to live wherever she wants.
Maybe she likes this area? Maybe her husband likes this area? Maybe it's convenient and close to her work.
Why all that snooping and why do you care?
She don't care about you anymore. She has her life, her family and you are her past.
Go on with your life.
To reiterate Rakin's sentiment. It's a free country. She can live wherever she wants to live. She hasn't sought you out or done anything in malice so what is the big deal? You even said yourself you've never seen her when you were out and about.
She's over you...you need to move on as well. Stop "researching" her online.
2 things here Cowboy : You did not marry her and saved yourself a costly and painful divorce with a custody battle if you had a child especially, And the house does not sound like its across the street from you. Out of sight, out of mind. She moved to the same region is all.
Concentrate on your life now. She's been out of the picture a while. Sounds like you will do just fine, As long as you don't analyze this and lose sleep over it.
Jesus H Rochester, who the #### cares what she does or where she lives. Pack your stuff and move to Schenectady. Get over it. Pathetic. Simply pathetic.

Ok, I don't get this, do you own the town you live in? Who knows why she lives there, probably it was a situation where she happened to be offered a job there, or maybe that is where she met her hsuband and where his job was. You sound like you think she is stalking you or something. Obviously if you have not seen her all these years she is not searching you out. I don't think this is a big deal at all, I think you are making it out to be something it isn't. She has a new life and she is living it where she wants. Stop wasting your time doing searches on her and get on with your own life.
