my ex has started working in my local job centre...

nothing has ever given me the motivation to find new employment quicker than having to go into this flea-rideen stinkpit and sit at a desk whilst a girl who dumped me tries finding me casual labour. She's a tourist, invading MY space. I really don't want to go to the place at all. I've been trying to grow a beard aswell, and it's pretty patchy and not all one colour, and i'm probably three stone heavier than the last time we spoke, but still have the same coat, she looks at me funny.

Embarassing bumping into ex's stories, please...



  • havent seen mine

    but people tell me she looks rough now and myspace pics confirm this. shes still unemployed, still doing nothing with her life...still bored and boring.

    soo sorry im on the other side.

  • I bumped into one one the way to work

    she'd put on loads of weight and was just coming home from a night out, looking like she'd been slagging it round some guy's the previous night.

    I felt smug seeing as my current girlfriend's WAY hotter than she is :)

  • I bumped into an ex last week

    The embarrassing bit was that she's so tiny that I didn't even notice her and literally bumped into her and knocked her down. Whoops.

    She was quite happy to see me though, which was surprisingly good as we hated each other when we split.

    • In my experience

      an ex who is happy to meet you is eager to show off how much better off she has been since she dumped you :(

      • :( oh...

        Well, I pushed her down! TAKE THAT BITCH!

  • the last time i saw my ex she was dancing on stage with Alabama 3 at glastonbury

    what a loser

    • :D

    • Alabama 3 were fucking mint

      at Glastonbury this year and I'll hear nothing that can make me think otherwise!

  • I started a new temp job a few weeks ago

    First person I see there is the ex. Even worse was the fact I was working in the room next to her.

    Luckily I was let go, and now don't have a job. Who's laughing now?

    • yeah, YEAH.

      Fuck the bitch, and the system, you were too good for them all anyway, and daytime TV's okay.

      • She drove me to daytime TV

      • Tru dat. Tru dat

        Day time TV is all kinds of wicked. I just watched one episode of One tree Hill, and there's another one on in a minute. Could my life get much better?!?1

  • haven't seen mine in a couple of years

    last time I did the problem wasn't so much with her, but her self-righteous (not to mention dog-rough) mate who still thinks it was my fault it didn't work out, though neither of us did anything particularly wrong and if even if we had, it'd have nothing to do with her ugly arse.

    Gave me daggers all evening, so I fucked off outside to get stoned and forget about it. It was supposed to be a party and I knew how antisocial I was being, but I just couldn't be arsed with the hassle.

    On the plus side, my ex didn't have any new partner to shout about and neither did I, so besides her interfering chum, there wasn't that much of a problem. But that was a while ago so she's probably matured, whilst I'm still emotionally retarded. And fatter.

  • a few months ago

    i met up with an ex for a night out, it was the first time I'd seen her for about 6 months so it was nice to catch up. But since we had split up i saw someone else for a few months and the split. But it was quite an intense relationship though, probably the most intense i ever had. She was quite gutted when we broke up, emotional, all that.

    Anyway

    We go to a club and who do i see for the first time since that emotional break up? Yeah, the emotional ex. She looks at me with my ex (who she knew i used to go out with) and put 2 and 2 together and made 5. She was looking over to my friend whilst bitching to her mates about her. It was quite awful actually, really childish.

    I was more embarrassed for my ex's behaviour, really.

  • i saw my ex last week

    and kept on thinking how much i miss having him in my life the whole time.

    i'm still not over him i don't think and what makes it worse is that i dumped him :(

    • you need a DIS lover

      start a thread requesting awkward indie boy and u'll forget him in no time ;)

      • this in not an option

        i am not desperate.

  • I split up with someone

    a couple of years ago and was really upset about it. I went out the next evening to try to cheer myself up a bit and guess who was there. :-(
    This is the problem when everyone you know always goes to the same nightclub.

  • last week at a friend's leaving party...

    his nickname 'terry wogan' becoming ever more apparent...

    • Was he making mildly xenophobic comments about tactical voting?

  • Bumping into and ex

    the day i broke up with him, it was one of them where i was kinda forced to finish it. He was all over a girl whom i suspected hed been carrying on with. He actually called me her name once :/

    So i casually walked over and punched him.

  • I see my ex every single day because of work

    We sit at the same table.

    He really really hates me, but ostensibly it's fine. I look at him and think 'Why the hell did we ever ever ever have anything to do with each other?'

    Sometimes I tell him about my love life, and he gets a bit annoyed, and I remember we used to go out.

    • ...and maybe once actually liked each other.

      Ewwwww.

  • Met her at a party for the first time in about a year.

    She was nervous and very friendly but I wasn't interested in her company so I tried to avoid.

    • aww

      do you think she was nervous because she still likes you?

  • I managed to get in and out of the place without seeing her, which is nice.

    JSA is an absolute joke. They told me i have to apply for four jobs a fortnight. I applied for eight this week alone aswell as sending CVs to countless agencies, wrote everything down, got there early and found more jobs etc. Then the guy called my name, asked me to sign a piece of paper and then said i could go. "Do you not want to hear about the jobs i've applied for?", "Nah mate, no point, you'll get yer dough on Thursday". What the fuck is that about? Whilst all this is happening there's some little scumbag, looked about fourteen, shouting "Glen, Glen, there's a fuckin spidoh on da buggeh, get it off man, get it off". They should make First Class job centre, that you can pay to use rather than mix with Spraywayed commoners.

    • *centres

    • hello

      i bumped into an ex last year.
      i was working at this art gallery, i went outsaide to do something. my ex ( who i haven't seen for about 5 years)is sitting outside a bar next door.
      I see her, she sees me - it's a bit weird that we both now live in brighton.
      we talk a bit, it's ok.
      Then.......
      my present girlfriend turns up ( she has come to give me some lunch or something - i can't remember, its a saturday)
      this is pretty weird as my present girlfriend and my ex girlfriend used to be best mates about 7 years ago and we all used to hang around in reading togather. (my ex doesn't know that i have been going out with my present girlfriend as everyone kind of lost touch with her years ago)
      so this is all a bit weird.
      Then.....
      my girlfriend's parents turn up! They are visiting for the weekend!

      also my ex girlfriend and present girlfriend used to live next door to each other so everyone knows everyone pretty well.

      COOL!

  • Oh. My. God.

    This must be one of the most demeaning things ever, on so many levels.

    *extreme sympathy*
