To see if they are ok?
Or estranged family members perhaps?
Glad you did or wish you hadn't?
Nope.
Ex’s no not specifically.
But there’s been quite of lot of chat with old friends I’ve drifted away from. Some of those old friends are even old ex’s.
The frequency of phone calls to the parents increased dramatically.
Not really. Ex-wife made her bed and can happily lie in it herself.
I do find myself making more of an effort to stay in touch with friends that are further away though. If they are out of the country, they are maybe feeling a little bit isolated themselves right now and it might help to have the odd message or call.
Not in the slightest... Anyway, how would you go and visit them ?
Only if I get a really persistent cough...
No why would you, unless you are just wanting to spread the Corona love ?
It would be a bit weird after 25 years.
weirdly, i did think about my ex yesterday. I hope she's OK, I have intention (nor do I want to0 of contacting her though.
Not sure my wife would approve!
Spoke to my on the phone once and text him once since this all started, which is about 100% more than the previous year!!
I don’t think the OP is talking about visiting.
Contacting suggested to me phone/text/messenger etc
Sounds like it could could go both ways ads
Unless this virus has the ability to stop my mother being a bellend, then no, I won't be contacting her.
Always stayed in touch with most of mine anyway. Still not got round to divorcing my wife. It’s only been 20 years, I might mention it next time I pop round to walk the dogs (aka not until this is over).
Nope, but it appears I do a wee bit of contacting people anyway, so that hasn't changed. I am tending to ask how they are doing more often though.
Louise?
Ex’s, no. There’s not many of them anyway 👍
I have been more in touch with friends though which is a very good thing.
Nope.... I'll stick to stalking them on Faceache.
I does seem to be a think, I've found myself writing longer and longer work e-mails and having 'chats' with clients / colleagues / suppliers and even bloody cold callers in work.
As for Ex's, no my Wife really wouldn't like that and as estranged family members, the only time I want to speak to my biological father is as I stand over his gravestone.
Yeah, I have thought about it. Funnily enough, we split just as the virus shite was starting and I do wonder how she is - works for the NHS [i]and[/i] is prone to catching any illness going round... but...
she told me not to contact her, so **** it. Who cares! Bitch! 😂
I’m very close with my latest ex so yeah been in constant contact and he’s even fetched prescriptions for me and dropped off some eggs. I’m a great excuse for people to be able to leave the house. Second to last ex I’m still in varying contact with so have touched base with him once or twice already to check all is well. I don’t hate any exs and none have ‘wronged’ me so no reason not to remain friends. I’ve been in contact with most friends more regularly but have completely cut off two because of all this because they've made no efforts to contact me Despite knowing my situation and if you can’t be there for someone now then I don’t want you there the rest of the time.
Does being in contact with ex's mum count just to check she's alright
Blocked & deleted the ex's moby see
Been in contact with a much older woman (basically a booty call)
Plus regularly chatting to recent fling lass (the one who thinks it's funny to fart on me)
She is pure filthy pig though mind
Major beer goggle rebound on my part ha
Only if I get a really persistent cough…
🙂
My ex, is my ex so we could save the friendship. So yes, speak to her nearly everyday. I miss living with her from a flat mate point of view but I’m so glad I bought my own place just before all of this virus shenanigans kicked off.
Not until I saw the post title, and that made me think 'no, how strange?'. But I guess everyone's situation is different.
I am in touch with my ex that I was married to for 20 odd years as we have 3 kids, 2 of these live with me anyway and the other has left home. Luckily she is marooned in the US with her partner's poorly parents. Oddly the kids seem quite unperturbed by this too!
As for the rest, I bumped into an ex from school last year, and time hadn't been kind. So no thanks.
Considered it and decided not to.
It was a long time ago, and I still remember her as a happy, funny, smiling, pretty and silly. If this all goes totally to pot, then that's what I want to retain as a memory.
An "ex" of mine contacted my wife on Facebook out of the blue to try and claim I was trying to have an affair with her colleague based on a hilariously out of context quote from a 3 year old email. Seriously.
The thing is, ironically, said "ex" was actually cheating with her boyfriend at the time (I was free and single) when we were briefly seeing each other.
She recently decided to marry the boyfriend (who had no idea he was being cheated on or is marrying a psycho who doesn't actually like him but has attachment, loneliness, commitment and drinking issues) and so I was quite tempted to contact an ex at this point, maybe on the big day, or the ex's fiance to even things up...
Obviously decided not to based on:
1. Her being a total Gone Girl bunny boiler and some people need ignoring
2. If he can't spot the crazy after 5 years then more fool him
3. Actually, he probably does know about the crazy but she's way hotter than him.
Aaah, exs. Don't do it.

Time to build bridges and contact family members?
Yes, go for it.
