I was only in "real" love once in my life.

Your response did make me feel better. I don't know if I would consider his comments "trash," but I wouldn't want my BF giving compliments like, "You must have been a killerin Vegas with those baby blues," to girls he used to date. I do wish it was possible to be friends with people after you end it romantically, though I realize it isn't always possible depending on the feelings involved. The guy I recently broke up with isn't comfortable hanging out, but I would have really liked to continue to do so. It just seems a shame to lose a good friendship.

I so feel your pain...I had to watch while my ex re-married the second we got divorced, and I had to watch his wife form a relationship with my children, then the two of them had a baby together. I see them all the time because of school functions. I've made myself go up to them (and in some cases, my ex-mother-in-law & sisters in law who were very unpleasant), and be friendly countless times, while trying desperately to hang on to my dignity. I was alone through all of this, and I felt like the world's biggest loser, being publicly replaced.
It just stinks, & there is no easy way to go through it I think. My consolation is that I hopefully am coming through it all with some dignity. It's easy to be civil when you have a new wife and family behind you backing you up. What I did was harder...but I tried not to sink to a low level...on the outside anyway :) I may have had some thoughts in the privacy of my own mind which were less than generous!!
