    I hope you called security, Daisy!

    Font - Daisy Chow The last time I bumped into an ex was when he disguised himself as a client and came to my office for therapy. I hadn't seen him in 20 years. He apparently had been googling me and told me his wife caught him. We were 15! Some people don't move on.

    Ex-turned-conspiracy-theorist seems to be a more common narrative than one would think!

    Font - Gonneke Nakazawa-Arts Shopping for my sister's wedding, right before I got engaged to my current husband. My sister spotted him first. When we asked him how he was he started spouting conspiracy theories and just sounded really paranoid. He was already sort of off when I was dating him, but that's when I knew I'd really dodged a bullet!

    Adrián, I once lived near a block away from where my ex worked. Thankfully, I moved the heck out.

    Font - Top fan Adrián Angeles Last time I saw an ex, it was almost 10 years ago, at my mom's funeral. Last time it was very likely to run into another ex, was when I got a better paid job and was very excited to start, until I realized that company's offices were 2 blocks away from her place of work, so every time I went out for lunch, it was always in the opposite direction, to minimize the chances

    Leslie, you were the bigger person here!

    Font - Leslie C Ng In public, on the train and then at the bus stop. He decided to wait in the background for me to get on the bus even though I wasn't going to talk to him anyway, and he could have walked behind the bus stop bench and not wasted ten minutes of his day! I really hope that made him late for something.

    We love office drama though!

    Rectangle - Ondra Béza Bezucha Probably She started working at the same place. almost 10 years after the breakup and she was still feeling sorry for dumping me. Me personally was having no emotion about it for a few years, but 10 years ago sure it was badly intense for me. But i barely recognised her.
