Jean, I don’t think it’s necessary to be in touch frequently. I think it’s more a case of knowing how to get in touch with them if you needed or wanted to.

I’m in periodic contact with two exes — we always were more friends than anything else. Have no idea where the ex-husband is. Several others have faded away over the years — I guess we weren’t as good of friends as I thought we might have been.

Actually Cece, I think you’re the norm. I don’t think most people keep in touch with their ex’s and for good reason.

Syl, That’s a good point to bring up too. The feelings morph into something different, not quite a strong, but they’re still there.

I do! There are reasons I loved them, and those don’t go away. It’s just a different kind of love I feel for them now.

Catherine, That’s definitely not a good thing. I used to do that years ago, but it stopped…thank goodness.

Eeek, Tina, stalker types… I’ve got one of those exes myself. He still lives here in town and we do run into each other sometimes (grimace) but he’s the type who transfers his obsessions onto his new g-f, and thank goodness, he’s got one. Now he’s her problem, haha! Anyway, I only keep in touch with a couple of exes. See, I have this little problem with projection (thinking they’re everything I want them to be) followed by disillusionment (once I find out they’re someone else entirely)…

Tina, Thanks! I’m glad I am not the only one. Enjoy your reunion. They are strange events indeed. (wg)

I see my ex husband all the time, but then we have a kiddo. As for ex boyfriends, I do keep in touch by email - most of them have moved away, and there’s only one I refuse to speak to and that was an extreme almost stalker-like situation. Other than him, I’ve remained friendly with the others. I’ll get an up close and personal meeting with a few next month at my high school reunion.
