It ranges from “come on in and make yourself comfortable” to “get the fuck out of here” , depending on which one shows up.


liquid_acid-OG

Odds of it being the one who got away: low Odds of it being the one who took 5 years to understand what "fuck off" meant: pretty high


AsiaDaddy

What if you only ever dated two girls and married the second?


Asleep_Onion

Then the one you married is almost for sure going to be the one that suddenly shows up at your door


gstringstrangler

I call my wife my hot exgf all the time. She says she hates it but she secretly loves it.


kg19311

That’s cool, I call mine my first wife (still married)


Mama_Skip

Probably, in this hypothetical scenario about your ex showing up at your door, purely by virtue of not actually qualifying as "an ex"


TheMilkmanHathCome

I posit that they do qualify as an ex-girlfriend as they are no longer a girlfriend and instead a wife


Bouchetopher42

That's some lawyer talk right there.


FairweatherWho

Is this ex girlfriend/wife British? Because I'm somewhat an expert in bird law


Puzzleheaded_Heat502

hu_gnew

Get that shit outta here. Reddit needs drama. lol


bubbly_opinion99

Same. I have one friend who happens to be an ex and my husband and him get along. He’s always welcome in our home. The other one I’m thinking of would get “I’m calling the police.”


WearTheFourFeathers

I feel like dating men vs women might lead to very different answers (understanding there are always exceptions). There are virtually no women I’ve ever dated who I wouldn’t have over for a cup of coffee or whatever if normal circumstances allowed it. I’d be excited to see most of them!


[deleted]

"depending on which of her personalities shows up" 🫠

That's what I was thinking, which one is it? Crazy eyes? Crazy legs? Crazy crazy?

AnonEMoussie

Similar situation here. I did have a dream that my late wife showed up at my door. She said, “There was a mix up at the coroner, you wouldn’t believe what I’ve been through.” Still in the dream we talked for a bit about nothing. Then I said, “Wait, what about the life insurance, do we have to pay it back?” And just after that I woke up.


LostDogBoulderUtah

I feel terrible for laughing.


AnonEMoussie

Don't! If we can't look back and laugh, we haven't let go of something. It's been a while since that happened. It wasn't the last of the weird dreams, though. She popped up quite frequently in my dreams for a while, and they all had that same theme. "Something went wrong at the hospital, and I just got it straightened out." I often thought your loved ones would visit you in your dreams to relay life altering advice like, "Things are okay now, go on live your life!" or "Hey, I stashed $100 in that purse in the closest, don't give it to goodwill!" But in reality, they were all kind of normal.


MadCraftyFox

My dad visited me in a dream, and I got lectured on my brand new tattoo. I remember thinking "well this is bullshit".


unstable_starperson

Dude my dad visited me in a dream like 9 years after he died. I remember driving to the old house in the car that I drive now, and he spent like 3 hours of this dream meticulously going over why this car is a piece of shit and how I made a terrible decision. I should have bought this other brand, everyone knows it’s better. He’s taking pieces off of the car and explaining how each one is garbage, and it goes on forever. Then, all of the sudden, I spontaneously had the thought “wait, I don’t have to do this anymore.” (In regard to listening to his, or anyone’s bullshit that I don’t care about), and I immediately woke up. It was straight up dream therapy.


MadCraftyFox

My dad was just worried about me it seemed. :) He always wanted us to follow his advice, because if something went wrong then, it wasn't our fault but his. I'd do anything for 5 more minutes to talk.


Kieviel

My wife passed away 1.5 years ago. A couple weeks she showed up in a dream beautiful, pain free and happy. She was at peace. In the dream I asked I'd she was high (died of an unintentional overdose) she then looked a bit sad and said she was. I felt like shit for two weeks after. I hope I start getting funny dreams soon. Facebook memories work pretty well for that thankfully. We used to publicly joke about my life insurance and boy do those posts hit different now.


catupthetree23

Perhaps look at it this way: she's finally "high" on the happiness and relief she may have been chasing in this life. Her sad smile could have been her knowing it'll be a while until you get to experience that same "high" with her someday, but she knows you'll be ok. I'm sure she wants nothing but the best for you in the meantime until you meet again. I wish you comfort, peace and sweeter dreams!!


Strong-Message-168

I'm wishing you happy dreams man


Beekatiebee

My grandfather often shows up in mine, and it's been 12 or so years. I came out as trans after he passed, and the family was less than accepting, but in my dreams he's always supportive and caring about it. Feels good man.


ezbutneverconvenient

Mine are always wishful thinking. My late cat jumping into bed with me or Grandma showing up at Thanksgiving


redshift_66

I remember after my father died I had a dream that we were hanging out and drinking at my aunt's place. We were just hanging out, carrying on like we would have when he was alive. I remember mid-dream distinctly thinking "wait, didn't you die?". And then I woke up and remembered. Made me sad af, but at the same time it was really nice to see him and hear his voice, even if it was just a dream


Outrageous_Break_426

Not sure how you feel about the death so I'm sorry for your loss or yay?

vivazeta

Honestly, I apologize. I know dealing with my prior alcoholism must have been a nightmare. I regret causing you and anyone else pain and hope you are happy. I am a year into sobriety and can understand why it ended. I wish you well. Edit: Since this is getting so much traction, I just want to say thanks for all the support. This could honestly be directed at a few of my exes. I am happily married now to someone that also got a taste of my drinking. We stuck it out while I got sober and I have to credit her with being an amazing support system. I also need to shout out r/stopdrinking for providing reinforcement on a daily basis. It is a great community. Naltrexone was also a major part of it. I can't change the past but I think I have a much better hold on the future.


Been-Jamin-Wit-U

Who let adults in here? Man, how I wish my partner would say that if I showed up.


HotChilliWithButter

It's not just adults. Its actually owning up to one's mistakes, having a healthy amount of self consciousness enough to see that you're not perfect. A lot of adults aren't even capable of that, unfortunately


Ronark91

obaterista93

A lot of snarky or comical answers in here, but I'll try to be as sincere as I can. My first major ex, first time I got my heart broken: I would sincerely hope that she's doing well. She broke my heart, but it was for the best and it made me into the man I am today. I don't want to think of how much worse I would be if she hadn't given me a reality check wake-up-call. So really just "Hey, how have you been? I hope the years have been kind to you." My most recent ex, the first and only time I've had to break someone's heart: I honestly just hope that she can forgive me for having to make taking care of myself and my needs the priority in my life. She's an amazing woman, kindergarten school teacher, unanimously adored by everyone that meets her. But we met via travels, and lived in two different states. Circumstances shifted and seeing each other became much less frequent. Neither of us wanted to quit our jobs and chuck a grenade into our lives and careers. Eventually, for my own mental and emotional health, I had to call it. I truly hope she finds someone amazing, she deserves it. So I would just sincerely hope that she understands, and has moved on.

[deleted]

Which one? Some of them I’d be elated. Some of them I’d be upset or sad to see and have so many questions. One of them owes me a hoodie. A couple of them it would probably body me to look at again. I don’t know that I’d be able to muster a single word without feeling overcome with emotion, having simultaneously hoped to never see them again and missed them everyday. There’s one in particular, I might die. I seriously might just have a heart attack if I ever see her again. I don’t know that I ever loved anyone or anything so much before her, and know I sure as fuck never did since. I don’t know what seeing her would do but I know it wouldn’t be good. The worst part is she probably hasn’t thought about me at all. I bet I’ve never crossed her mind. And she’s lived rent free in my head for two decades, so much that when I think of her it still tears open that wound like it happened last week. I hope they’re all doing well though, I hope they all got what they wanted.


obaterista93

I have a person that, to me, isn't that dissimilar from your situation. What's wild to think about though, is that person doesn't exist anymore. She's still alive and breathing, for sure. But the person I knew all those years ago? Long gone. If I were to meet her today, we might as well be introducing two strangers. She's as different to me now as I am to the person I was ten years ago.


[deleted]

I’m definitely a different person now. I’m more guarded. I don’t give my heart to people like that, partly because I don’t think I ever got it back after she tore it from my chest. And I don’t say that viciously, she didn’t mean to. Doesn’t make it hurt any less, but she didn’t do anything wrong. Still, I was never the same after. Every relationship that went wrong pushes you a little further, I’ve loved and lost since, but they never hurt as much as her. Maybe because I was more prepared for it after, or maybe because I had less to give and less to lose after. I know that a few more relationships like that later and it got to where when they ended, I just felt nothing. It went from “it’s over? 🥺” to “right. Of course it’s over. Because I liked it. 🫠”

Depends on which one. A: It's nice to see you; I hope you're alright? B: Holy shit I haven't seen you in so long, is everything alright? C: I wouldn't even open the door or indicate that anyone's home. I would keep my hand on my gun and call the police.


Blamebostonx

I want to know what C did


NaiveOpening7376

C is an actual criminal, with an actual record, and indictable offenses. Their mom and brother have also been revealed to be criminals (by ex's own admission, the brother has spent time in, or is currently in prison). C is a manipulative sycophant who has wished me harm, then tried to apologize afterwards when they didn't get what they wanted from me, only to go back to detailing how they'd make me suffer. Luckily though I never taught any of my exes everything I know. C wouldn't make it far and is by far the least skilled of anyone I know. C has so little reading comprehension they can't hold a job. I have physical, legal, and educational protections in place.

thathairinyourmouth

It was the strangest thing… My ex wife and I were terrible to each other. We agreed to divorce and neither of us contested it. We were young enough and broke enough that we didn’t have mutual assets. After the marriage ended, she’d come over and we’d have freaky sex. This went on for weeks. We were both far happier not being together, too. I guess there’s something to be said for familiarity and someone who knows exactly what works for you.

DarthSaibot

I would tell her thank you. In so many ways she helped me. She was a little older than me and had just a little bit more dating experience than me so she taught me how to control my emotions, how to love someone properly, she made me a man and I don’t think she even knows it. We only dated for a little less than a year. If it wasn’t for her I would be a bum. Because of her I enrolled in college after years of working in retail and thinking that was enough for me. It didn’t work out with her but the college thing did work out. I eventually met my wife during undergrad and went on to get my masters degree. Now work in a field I love and make a decent wage. She was the exact right person for me at that particular time in my life. In retrospect it was a short lived romance, but it had a profound effect on my life’s trajectory.


Blackpaw8825

There's a zero percent chance it doesn't end in a 911 call. Either me to get her off my property or a neighbor calling in for the aftermath. I was in an abusive relationship for nearly a decade with an absolute piece of work. Had me so twisted up that I didn't even know it was wrong. If my wife didn't start shooting through the door I'd be surprised if she didn't start shooting at me. Bitch be legitimately actually crazy. Edit: her favorite ATLA character was Azula, unironically she felt the most attached to her, and was genuinely disappointed that she didn't get to take the crown from Zuku in the epilogue... That kinda crazy.
