checking up on ex's...online

does feeling the need to check your ex's facebook wall everyday mean that you are not over him? or does anyone here that is fully over thier ex, has a new bf/gf still check their ex's myspaces/facebooks etc ...just to see whats going on with them

its just that i find myself doing it a lot.i was convinced i was fully over him but suspect that this curiosity to see whos in his lifemeans im probably not ??

random question i know...

probably just your curiousity. Then again, if it was me i would be checking it out mostly because i want to see how hes doing after me. selfish yes. human? very. :smile:

Either you're not over him completely (only you know if you are or aren't), or you're just very very curious as to what's going on in his life.

You really need to stop doing it though, you don't want to get obsessive over it or anything. Besides, if you're with someone else now, concentrate on your current life and relationship. Leave the past in the past.

I suppose it would be OK now and again. Supposedly they were an important part of your life at one point, and as such it's natural to be curious. But everyday hmmm....

The way to know is...

One day say you looked at his myspace and saw he is going out with a stunning model.

Jealous?

Stunning model, jealous? Don't ever be! Looks aren't everything and they could be more messed up than you think. :rolleyes:

I know. Just an example. :smile:

I think though if i did look at my x's myspace and saw that i would feel a bit down. Then again i do have feelings for him so thats why lol.

right...iv decided..from today i will NOT check it everyday, there is so little point, idont want to go out with him again....i was with him for 2 years so i suppose it is natural to check it now and again as we still get on really well and shared an important part of our lives together...but your right..everyday is habit forming and not healthy...i mean how interesting can his life REALLY be from day to day(!)

thanks guys

hey! if it makes u feel better, i check my ex's facebook, a couple times a day. i speak to him every couple of days, but i stil feel the need to know exactly what he's doing, even tho he doens't have the interent where he is atm, and only goes once every couple of days. ...i also check his friends face book, and club websites to see if they put photos up when he goes out....

i am so going to put this as anon...!

This is why I deleted all that crap myspace, hi5 etc. Complete stalker-ish waste of time! I hate my personal life being available to so many people. But yeah, back on topic, glad to see you'll be checking up on him less!

I find myself doing this occasionally, it's really annoying, I don't even know why.

I suppose if your just curious then it's not a massive issue then again i never check up on my ex's purely because i don't care.

hmm i do it too - i was realy p*ssed off when my ex got facebook cos i knew id be checking up on her all the time! seeing stuff like their pics, wall comments etc just shows u the fact that theyre carrying on their life and ur no longer a part of it wich is sometimes hard to take. i always tell myself im not gonna check her facebook but its a lot easier said than done!

'checking up' is definately more of a girl than a guy thing right??

I ended up deleting my Ex from facebook. Primarily so i didnt keep getting notices everytime a new pic was put up of her and the new bf... and also so i cant actually check her wall at all :P

Personally, I deleted everyone from my myspace, except Tom and Weird Al Yankovic because I figure that no on ever views my profile, comments me, and I have hardly any female friends and I get no female attention, be it in real world or on myspace.

(and before anyone starts, i gotta say no thanks, i dont need any sort of comfort from anyone here..i'm fine)
