How Have Your Ex-es Responded to Your Engagement/Marriage?

Holy crap! Those people are crazy!!

My ex-boyfriend found out through a mutual friend. When he first found out he sent me a message saying "Wow...I look so much better than him...but whatever. I'm soooo happy for you!"

Yeah...I'm sure you're really happy lol.

I had to tell him to stop messaging me because he was being really negative and was checking in to see if we were still deciding to get married...

My ex from high school of 4 years has not had a girlfriend since we broke up 6 years ago. I got a new boyfriend in college and he lost his mind and continues to text me to this day. He found out on fb about my engagement and sent me a really nice text. He likes our pictures and statuses and it doesn't bother me. He fucked up and now he gets to see me happy every day!

Two things happened but I only have one MAJOR ex.

He found out through mutual friends and was like congrats...

I thanked him and jokingly asked what took him so long to congratulate me. He wasnt sure if he should no or not. Whatever haha.

The next time I had seen him in person and he gave the whole. "I'm sorry we ended the way we did and I'm sorry I hurt you and I wish we could be alright again, I lost my best friend."

I told him its his own damn fault and he should have thought about that before he fucked around with my friend behind my back. I dated this guy for five years...it had devastated me. But karma!!

No idea... I removed my most recent ex from my FB, along with any of his friends/family. He probably knows I'm engaged because we do have some mutual friends after having gone to college together, and my status is public on FB, but I'm not really concerned about it.

I had a friend text me the other night saying she received a random text from him syaing "hey remember me?" She thinks it's a ploy to try and get info about me so she's not responding... weird.

My high school / early college ex and I are still friends. He occasionally would throw out a “you’re the person I never got over,” in some of our conversations, but I wouldn’t reply and he’d text me a few months later to catch up. We went through some hard times together when we dated; he was brutally jumped and beat by a group of guys and a few years later the same guy was charged with the murder of 3 people. I think even though he’s found new relationships I was with him during some of his hardest moments. I am completely fine being friends and he has learned what is appropriate and not appropriate to say. Fortunately H is supportive of our friendship and there have even been a few talks of us all getting together when the ex comes into town. He even gave H and I close to $200 in our honey fund. My ex story!

I only have 1 real ex which is my Munchkin's dad and he's been with his gf for 6 years...he was included on the mass snapchat of the ring after family was told!

I'm actually really good friends with my only ex. He's very happy for me and will definitely be at the wedding.

One deleted me off Facebook and another one sent me a very inappropriate FB message including sexual references to our past, so they're gone!

Well... I found out this week that my ex of 2 years is going to be in Vegas when I get married. He's on the same flight out as my father. That should be interesting...

Mine found out through word of mouth - i am friends with his best friend's now wife. so i told her when i was engaged and her husband told my ex. i actually don't know how he responded intially, but we are on good terms now as long distance friends. and i am genuinely happy that his girlfriend just moved in with him.

i actually was more worried about how his family would react. gosh i loved them when we were together and we keep in touch occasionally through facebook (pictures of my ex's niece and nephew mostly)

@ECM wow...what are the odds...

Not an ex, but one of my best guy friends pretty much "dumped" me as a friend after we got engaged. Still makes me sad, especially when I have to hear about him being back in town from all of our old mutual friends.

@Amy that sucks when they just don't get it...

I don't know Ashleigh but he told me and used the hashtag #totallynotcrashingyourwedding. He better not!

I've really had only two exes in my adult life. I called ex-husband, and his response was, "We've been wondering if you were going to do this!" He ended up coming to the wedding, and jokingly offering to give away the bride.

I am not much in contact with ex-girlfriend, so I suspect the first time she knew was when I friended her on Facebook long after the wedding. She hasn't said anything about my being married, but I didn't really expect her to.

I'm actually good friends with a lot of my exes... I'm not a whore... But the one ex who is a psycho douchebag I have blocked from FB and none our mutual friends talk to him anymore either

I know one will bug out. We reconnected right before I met FH and I told him I was not interested in dating him, but that I'd be his friend. He didn't want that. He said that every time he reconnects with an ex, they end up married in a year and he didn't want to be around when I met the next dude.

He should open a business. FH is the next person I met after we stopped speaking and the wedding will be 1.5 years after me and ex reconnected. lol I think it'll drive him bonkers.

My other exes will probably be happy for me, but won't contact me to say so. I didn't end on bad terms with too many of them, but I did make a point to disconnect from them so that they wouldn't be in the way of future relationships.

Ohhhh. The guy I lost it to will be at the wedding, but we've been friends for 10 years now and only dated for a few months, so i forget that he's sorta an ex sometimes.

My ex right before fh cted like he was happy but then started with the real snarky comments. He asked me alot of details about our relationship, but nothing lewd. Ex bf was very distant when we were together. Was a true workaholic, and never had time for me, so the relationship fell apart. Now that I'm engaged all the sudden he us really interested in me again. He has backed off though, so he is not a problem.

Another ex who was madly in love with me, but turned out to be full of "dealbreaker" qualities, was very happy for me when I got engaged. He wrote me some really nice text messages. He is currently with his on again, off again fiance and said he can only hope to find the live I have with my fiance, with his. ( totally not happening, but it was nice of him to say) Fh and I actually ran into that ex and his fiancee once and it was totally fine. It was awkward for me, but all other parties seemed comfortable.

I don't keep in contact with any ex's. For me personally I just don't think anything good comes of it. My mom is friends with the mom of my ex who I was with for 6 years though. So I'm assuming she told her. He ended up getting engaged a few months after me and my mom told me...for whatever reason. My response was something like "Neat, so how are the dogs?" As far as what he or any other ex thinks I don't know/don't care.
