"PinterestFacebookOk, my dears, so on Friday I told you that Alex and I might run into my ex-boyfriend and his new wife this weekend. Well, we did. Here&amp;#39;s the story...\nWell, I thought we might see them at a party on Friday night. But Alex and I didn&amp;#39;t end up going to the party (he was sick), so I forgot all about it.\nBut then.\nOn Saturday afternoon, we went to our friend&amp;#39;s choir concert. It was held at a beautiful old church in Manhattan, and Alex and I rolled up there early so we could get good seats. We were walking up to the ticket office when, all of a sudden, my ex-boyfriend and his wife walked out. It was a total surprise. All of us said hello at record speed (while still walking). It was the first time we&amp;#39;d seen each other all together, and the first time I&amp;#39;d seen my ex in over a year; and we had dated for four years and are now marrying the first people we dated afterwards!\nThen we went into the church, and it felt like Where&amp;#39;s Waldo. The aisles were really crowded and everyone looked the same in black coats, but it felt like every time we turned around, we were standing right next to them. Finally, we found a few empty seats....only to realize that they were sitting directly behind us. For two hours.\nI don&amp;#39;t know why it was so awkward. Nothing crazy happened, and we barely spoke. But it was one of those loaded situations, where there&amp;#39;s so much history and back story, and you know everyone&amp;#39;s thinking about it.\nNow, afterwards, I wished I had gone up to them and said a real hello. That would have been the grown-up, almost-30 thing to do. And I do wish them the best. Oh, well. Maybe next year.\nSo I&amp;#39;m curious: What about you? Are you friends with any of your old boyfriends, or do you steer clear of potential mine fields? Have you run into them since breaking up? Where were you? Was it horribly awkward or surprisingly sweet? I&amp;#39;d LOVE to hear....\nWant more? Read about jealousy and break ups...."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
