Holy Crap

You know how when you were in high school, you had this guy that you were totally in love with, and you dated him for over a year? And you did everything together, and you were so sure you were going to marry him? But it was kind of on-again, off-again? And you didn't go to Homecoming together because it was during an off-again time? And the day after Homecoming he broke up with you, because he thinks he's in love with his Homecoming date? And you cry for weeks, and wear black for months because your are mourning, and sometimes you wish you could die right there on the spot, and other times you just want to kick him where it hurts? And eventually you move past him, find the true love of your life and live happily ever after?

And then, nearly 15 years after high school, your ex-boyfriend's now wife, the one who he broke up with you for, finds you on Facebook?

Yeah, that's how I am feeling right this very second.

Oh, and if you have found my blog by now, Hi Cozette, how are you? (No hurt feelings, by the way. I am totally happy.)

If you were a man I would say--wow what a blow to the nugget pouch!! But since you're not--I would say that sucks but your life is probably SO much better than theirs!!

Romney Family said...

That is too crazy!! I don't know how I would feel about that if it were me in your shoes!!

Just SO said...

That would be a bit weird. My guys wife doesn't know me and I know he wouldn't contact me so I don't think I'll have to feel like you are any time soon.

Whitney R said...

wow. haha. Wait. That sort of thing DID happen to me. And I just met her in person for the first time this last weekend and now we are super good friends. But she isn't with the guy we "shared". Thank heavens..

Sabrina said...

That is one of my biggest fears. Just kidding... but i do think about it.
Love that her name is Cozette! My favorite girl name is Cosette... It's a Les Miserables thing I guess. :)

Anne-Marie said...

Ha-gotta love Facebook! lol.
By the way-I am not a closet ANTM fan. I'm totally out.

(yes. I am Lara's sis-in-law. she rocks. And yes, we shoud get together. I like funny people)

Vanessa said...

NICE! FB has unearthed some feelings that I suppressed from those CRAZY college years. I had to stop typing peoples names into the search box. . .it was making me nuts.

Kristina P. said...

Did you Friend her? Yeah, I wouldn't.

Brooke said...

You just showed up on my google reader.

Me (aka Danielle) said...

Clicked over from Blog Stalkers..

I hope this NEVER happens to me. AwKWARD!

Heidi said...

Oh, wow! I guess I should stop trying to find my ex boyfriends (and their wives) on facebook, huh?

Jen said...

Ahhhh, totally hysterical--NOT! Cuz I've been there, done that! I'm on Facebook too if you ever want to look ME up! Have a great Thanksgiving, my dear.

Kimberly Vanderhorst said...

Bwahahahah!

I didn't start dating till after high school and while I lamented the fact hugely at the time I'm kind a glad now.

Ha ha ha!

K and/or K said...

I married my high school sweetheart...but still managed to run into an off-again girl he dated in college at a sandwich shop-- my friend who I was with knew from playing softball with her. Akward much?

Elisa said...

Saa-WEET!

I can 1 up you... my guy actually sent me a friend request. Yeah. That's even more awkward!

Anonymous said...

Facebook is totally out of control!☺

Brittany Marie said...

Hahahahahaha! One more reason to never join facebook.

Megan and Jon said...

Cozette, I know her because how many Cozettes can there be.. Hysterical. I'm so going to stock your facebook now..

hehe

Lee said...

Hi, I found you on blogstalkers and thought I'd stop by!

I'm going through my first break-up after a long relationship sort of thing.
So if my ex's wife ever finds me... I'll hopefully be over it by then! Ha!

Lara Neves said...

Wow. Don't think I would even care about the HS boyfriend's wife finding me.

But the college boyfriend that I was totally engaged to? And the girl that stole him out from under me that I sat next to in choir? Couldn't much handle that, I don't think. :)

carrhop said...

hee hee snort snort snort hee haah haa

Oh, Sweetie, how awkward for you.....(snort, heee hee haaahahahaa)

;o)

Blessings!

Anonymous said...

bahahaha... It would be so tacky if it weren't so funny.

It's funny that how ever long it's been since that situation, you still don't want it to happen. Having your face rubbed in it and all... Did you be-friend her on facebook?

That Girl said...

TOTALLY. SNORTING RIGHT NOW.

(We ARE the same person, bytheway.)

Jan said...

That is why facebook sort of scares me. I don't want to be found by those types.

Happy Thanksgiving Erin

Kayla said...

That's too funny! You crack me up.

in time out said...

very strange. yes, they don't know they like you until you are taken.

mine visited me up until i had my second child.

my husb would come home and say, did your boyfriend come by today.

three years into HIS marriage, and 6 into mine his wife finally put a stop to it.

awkward.

happy thanksgifting.

Brigitte Ballard said...

Wow... I didn't know that story. HMMMMM.

I can't remember who the guy was is the problem! Where is my MEMORY???

Stephanie said...

laugh out loud hilarious. :)
I live in fear of some of the same.

rich and steph said...

The same thing just happened to my good friend. Her ex-fiancee found her and wanted to add her as a friend. She is a happily married lady with 10 beautiful kids. Told her it is simple-deny his request to be his friend:)

Strawberry Shortcake said...

He must be telling wonderful stories about you if she came looking. Still a threat after all of these years? Somehow this reminded me of my father-in-law. My husband's parents are divorced and he is remarried, yet every time we would go to his house, he would talk very fondly of my mother-in-law, his ex-wife... while his current wife was just in the next room. Icky.

Jaime said...

Ha ha. I'm pretty glad I married my on-again, off-again boyfriend so I don't have to run into this! Although, it's pretty weird sometimes that I know (and am friends with!) a lot of the girls he liked and dated and vice-versa . . . do you ever think that with Christian?

Michelle said...

Now that's funny! I too am curious if you friended her.

Christine said...

Ha ha! Facebook makes the world a more interesting place.

Britt said...

I totally remember that. What a wierdo for wanting that she'd want to find you on Facebook. I'm so glad that you didn't end up with him, he was a geek. (No offense.)

tiburon said...

That has never happened to me - I can just imagine.

Shelane said...

yeah, I'm the one who got ahold of my ex's now-wife and asked her embarrasing questions about him and made her mad. I'm still glad i asked, but don't think we'll be bffs. ever.

Annette Lyon said...

I'm such a spaz--I e-mail you a comment just like I said I hate!

But yes . . . FB is awkward at best. People coming out of the woodwork who I didn't know were IN it. Or who even knew me. Why do they care NOW?!
