Yoyo - About 3 or 4 years ago, I ran into my xbf who is hotter than hot! He was the one that I was going to marry in my twenties. He broke up with me and I think it took two years for me to get over it.. Well, the guy just kept gushing about how great I looked.. My H actually met him that day and became extremely paranoid and jealous after that even though I haven't seen or heard from the guy since.
I guess my point is that it could be good for your self-esteem to hang out with him as friends. Are you thinking that you can't trust yourself??
Maybe you should go for it, as friends, and see what happens. Either make H jealous or maybe he is still the one and you just don't know it right now. Most R's start out as friendships anyway, or at least they should.

But, the key is you moving on, GAL and not needing him. It'll make you more attractive.
See Olive's point. She's still living in fear. Yet one little nod from an ex-BF and her husband is crapping in his pants.
Ummm...maybe there's a message here for all of us. Boundaries? Detaching? Letting them fear losing us?
Delia,
Can I beat the crap out of your husband? Poor baby, he's scared of your 11 year old hurting his beloved's feelings? Damn him.
A freakin' poetess? Yeah, well my ex-best friend (OM) inspired my wife's muse, so she started writing poetry. She wrote a poem about how her marriage vows were lies and that her true love(for him) existed in a past life and was re-expressing itself.
F*ck the poets.
It's amazing how pedestrian we are not to acknowledge how spiritual and pure their affairs are. Self-actualization is really convenient.
My pastor once told me that he was proud of me for not losing my job and coming home drunk every night because that's what he would do in my situation. Gotta love an honest man like that.
Delia, I get ya there as far as having to leave the kids in for a gallon a milk,but in my case my H would show up out of the blue and hold it against me for leaving them home alone!! I have 3 little ones nad w/ the rain her lately it isn't that easy to go to the store for one thing!
