So I recently discovered that my ex-boyfriend got married and I'm kind of not happy about this. I haven't seen or spoken to him in the five years since we broke up and knew absolutely nothing about what was going on in his life. I assumed he was dating or in a relationship, but not MARRIED!!! I WAS SUPPOSED TO GET MARRIED BEFORE HE DID, BUT I'VE BEEN SINGLE EVER SINCE I BROKE UP WITH HIM.

He wasn't a horrible guy so I guess he deserves to be happy, but . I haven't seen the girl yet, but I really want to know what she looks like.

You could face book stalk him. Or stalk him in real life until you see her. I guess it makes sense why women are so excited about marraige its not a huge liability for them like it is for men. I dont know why he rushed to get married unless he is stupid.

Why do you care so much about getting married? And why are you keeping score as to what your ex is doing?

Serious questions.

It could mean he was desperate and settled because he was sure he would never get such a great person like you again.

Think like this - if he married so quickly, he might not have chosen wisely.

Competition.

Like the guy who found out his ex is engaged.

They must feel they will never find anybody good like them thus hoping for a lonely ending to say, "See!! No one could put up with you!!!"

She's going to look like his wife no matter what you think of how she looks, so what's the difference?

Mmm....in a way I kind of know how you feel.

You can't concern yourself with what your ex's are doing. It'll only make you feel bad or regret what you lost. You are backtracking, you need to move on and figure out what YOU should be doing. Not what everyone else is doing.

Edit- Sounds like you guys didn't have a bad break-up but you regret possibly losing a good guy.

Be happy for him. Your relationship ended for a reason. And, the more you feel sad about another person's happiness, the less likely you are going to find your own happiness.

Don't facebook stalk them!!

You don't want to see their happy wedding pics.

And don't forget: Facebook = fakebook. The more happy pics they have up there, the more unstable the relationship is.
