My best friend's husband took his mistress to the same resort where he spent his honeymoon with his wife.

I guess he wasn't bothered by it, huh?

My ex-husband got remarried on my birthday. I think I was supposed to be upset by that! I just put it down to one more triumph of tackiness on his part.

If my ex did that, I wouldn't take it personally. He couldn't remember my birthday when we married, why should he remember it after we're divorced? lol

I don't think the emphasis is so much on the place as it is the person. If you're over your ex, then going to that place shouldn't hurt because those memories aren't at the forefront of your mind. It may be a little weird, but it wouldn't make you afraid to go in. So I supposed you would be ready to go to those places when you're over him.

One of these days, we need to sit down and compare war stories!

And christiangirl, I agree with you. Maybe a better way for me to word my thoughts is that I don't think you should make a "god" or false idol out of a place. Yeah, it hurts - badly! But you're giving your energy, your devotion to back to the ex, and not moving on with your life.

you can only truly feel comfortable whenever youre ready. thats all really.
for me, personally, i think that it depends on the person and the depth of the relationship - theres some places i still dont go bc of the ex boy, and we broke up months ago, like almost a year ... and as for now, i just stopped seeing a guy for after about a month, and im not really bothered by much. - all because the relationship really wasnt as long as the other one ....

so basically in my overly long schpeel ..... it just depends on how involved you really were, you know? any way it happens - a break up sucks. :rolleyes:

I've avoided this one gourmet grocery store for YEARS because my ex worked there. All this time, I have thought he still worked there because he didn't have much else going on for him.

'Course now I come to find he has a "real job" and no longer works there.

But at the same time, I'm not jumping to go back there because it's overpriced food and slow deli service.

And I'm lucky in the regards that all the restaurants we went to as a couple either moved or went out of business. :) (Except maybe the chains...)

I avoid going to three grocery stores at a certain time of day cuz a stalker dude I went on 3 dates with is a Nabisco supplier and has those stores on his route. I can't remember his name, but I ran into him once a few months ago and he remembers everything about me. He creeps me out.
