Do you still check up on your ex-boyfriend/ex-girlfriend?

Even though most people do not remain friends with their exs - do you get curious about how they are doing, who they're with, how's their life going? Do you check up on their facebook, ask people how they're doing or something?
I have to admit, I do *sometimes* but only because all my exes and I have mutual friends so it's not hard to see my ex. Sometimes, I comment on someone and he comments after or something so it's right there.
I don't care for them but it just happens to be connected somehow.
Do you get curious?

Hi. infatuatedbby. I will have to admit, that I have in the past. But not anymore like that. I know that sometimes with any of my ex boyfriends they will write something on Facebook just so that I can notice it and be surprised. But I don't give into their sneaky tactics anymore. I know the kind of game that they are playing and they shall be playing it alone too.

It's a bit of a conflict situation: half of me wants to draw a thick line and forget everyting, over and out! While the other half cannot help but still think about the very I had been so close to once and ocasionally and covertly lookup social network sites and see what she is doing. It's a bit self-distructive isn't it?

I think its normal though. As you can see most people responded yes they do check up on their exes.

I don't care about them anymore. They're not part of my life anymore. But I have to admit, I'm just like you. Sometimes I just peek at their Facebook profiles and see how ugly they are now. Haha.

I only check up on an ex if he and I ended on good terms and I still care deeply for him. Otherwise, an ex is just an ex. Lol

Well, me too sometimes :-) But lately, one ex actually is adding me on fb but I don't look at his name, lol. He's stalking at me! Lol.

It depends on how bad the breakup was, like if it was just mutual nobody really broke anybody's hearts than yea I still keep contact and even check up on him at times. But, if he cheated on me, or we argued a lot and he broke my heart to the point where I couldn't get over him for days then yea, I could care less about them and you won't ever find me talking about them again.

yes, i get that feeling especially when we just broke up. i would still think what they are doing and if they are doing well with their life and then i would tell my self, snap out of it, you may be thinking about him but is he doing the same thing.
