How to Handle When You Stumble Upon Your Ex?

Can you handle it?
Tempting, isn’t it? You lock your eyes on him and you remember the old days; the way he cares and touch you, the way he whispers such sweet nothings to you and the way your skin tingles when he breath so close to you. What a blast from the past? Nah, forget it. You have to remember the reasons, why both of you didn’t work out. Forget about the romance, which reborn or re-baptized when you set your eyes upon him. The key elements here, you already moved on. Why keep on coming back the same old-unwanted-hard feelings when you were with him. Of course, there were sweet and good memories but as the song goes, good things happen will never last. It somewhat ring true.
The Dump: Parting times, goodbyes or call it farewells (see-you-again-some time) would be the sulkiest or resentfully-bad-times or phase in your life your heart may ever feel. Broken hearted? Yes, you can count on it. Stressful? Not out of the list. Insecurities? A lot. Whoever the dumpee or the dumpeer, it doesn’t matter. What matter most in this time is the feeling of remorse, loss, regrets, hurt, pain and agitation? It’s mixed and you can trust the broken-hearted-pitiful-crying-soul singles in this area, they can tell you that it’s heck.
The Dumpee: Of course, the ego and the pride burse but the past is past and you already moved on. You enjoy your life and you’re getting on with the flow. However, when you lock your eyes on him–the feelings of repression seems to pop out. Or you began to miss him or jump unto him and telling him craps. Oopps.., take a deep breath. Be confident that the cries and the wails during the dump time were just recorded in the history of your diary that you’ll never want to re-read and re-write again and again. If he asks how you are, give your sweetest smile and say “Fabulous”
The Dumpeer: Well, you ended up the relationship because you think that it wasn’t meant to be but when you see her, there’s a new sparks that blooms inside your foolish-fleeting heart. You see her radiant face laughing and capturing many eyes inside the room. You’re thinking if both of you could bring back the memories and get together again. Oh come on, cut it off. You were the one who sent her heart into a blender and grinded it like an ice. You were the jerk who replaced her with that mini-skirt-wanna-be your girlfriend but she ended up fooling around with some hot guy not to you. Expect not her warmth; you have to deal with it. Just give her a break and be happy of her state right now. Though, if she can give you just friendship, so be it. But, don’t apologize of what you had done. She buried it six-feet-below the ground and not wanting to dig it again.

I have stumbled upon that idiot. What do I do? I act as if he is not there, I would only recognize his presence if he says hi or something. Then I would act like nothing happened. I would be pleasant company even if it kills me inside. Can you tell how we ended? Not in good terms. If it had ended in pleasant terms I wouldn’t act like such a … you know. lol
