Yeh...I usually think about everyone I came across in my life at some point. I don't have feelings for anyone that was an ex when I think of them. I just wonder what they are doing.

When I run into some girls that I liked in high school, it triggers some emotions. Knowing that I could have had a chance with them if I was as courageous as am I today. But the past is the past and that opportunity is gone. Take it like a man and move on!

I think about an ex a little more than I should, yes. I've looked at profile and friends list, but didn't have the audacity to try to contact him.

I think about an ex-boyfriend, probably much more than I should.

I think because I still don't have anyone serious in my life, I tend to "idealize" the relationship with my ex-bf and remember the good things about him, rather than how incompatible we were.

At least I've stopped thinking about my ex-fiance the way I used to. He still pops into my dreams at night sometimes though - and I have no idea how to stop that.

Interesting question, I'm curious to read all of the responses..

As for myself, I do think about my ex wife a bit, but we are still close friends. It's been six years since we divorced, but everything happened so smoothly that it wasn't a big deal at all. As to the reason I still think of her? There's a lot of things, so I can't pin anything exactly - she's just really a good friend, and will never be anything more than that. We went through a lot together - from my long hospital stays and countless dr. appointments to her being diagnosed as being Bi-Polar - things like that will bring anyone together. Still, looking back, I don't really consider the time that we were married as being "married" - was more like good friends living together.

As for ex girlfriends, I can't say that I think about them a lot. I do have one on facebook that I occasionally talk to, but it's more of a passing thing. She contacted me, I just went with it. Nice girl and all, but as one grows older, things change. The only time I ever think of any ex's is when a certain song comes on, or I catch a certain scent.. I just kinda smile, shake my head, and laugh at all the crazy things that I've done.

Good times..
