Spinoff to: NWR: Don't you just HATE ex-boyfriends? ...Does anyone find that they have become more desireable to ex's and other guys...

I have noticed that since I have been unavailable to men at large , that old ex's and men I have never known before, have come out of the woodwork expressing interest in me. Anyone else? Is it the 'I want what I can't have' syndrome? No I am not conceited but I think you know what I mean.

Oh yes, I experienced this after I got engaged. With the ex's, they always realize what they lost when they can't have you anymore. Wait until you're offically married. My last ex before DH works with my friend and STILL makes comments. We broke up 4 years ago. My friend has a pic of me and her from the wedding in her office and she came in one day to find it facing the wrong way. HELLO, YOU LOST OUT, MOVE ON A$$HOLE!!! I do get a certain degree of satisfaction out of it though

Oh sure...I have a few exes that I'm still good friends with. Once Brad and I were together for awhile, the only two who ever broke up with me expressed their regrets and stupidity for doing so!

They don't only express regrets, they express a desire to have you 'once last time for old time's sake'. I tell them that if they were good enough in the first place, I'd still be with them.

That happens all the time - ex's and total strangers too. Some guy tried to pick me up at the DMV the other day - even asked me to dinner and I said 'sure, if my fiance can come too.'

I think they see a truly happy woman and they want to meet you --- or maybe they just want to screw it up since they are miserable

ETA - I had an ex ask to hook up a few months ago. He called after midnight while FI was at my place. And this guy knows I'm engaged He's just a jerk who lost his chance. Thank God I dumped him!!!

I had an experience like that with an ex when I had been dating my FH for a few months. I was so upset by it, but at the same time happy that I was...it showed how over him I was! (He had been my boyfriend all through college, and I really thought he was 'the one').
