Curious

I'm not a fan of random friend requests on facebook. In fact, I usually ignore them. A while back I got a request from the ex-fiance's little sister. I stared at it for a couple days before eventually denying it. It hadn't been that long and I didn't want to deal with the potential connection or subsequent communication as a result. About six months later she asked again. This time I accepted.

Things are different. I am now living with my boyfriend of over a year. I have zero connection to or communication with the ex and have no residual feelings of angst or sadness over how everything played out. I do find myself apologizing too much or being paranoid about what my Boo thinks, but he is always there to calmly remind me that he loves me for me. Stop trying to please him or worry about his emotions. He isn't going to freak out or rage like the last guy.

All that being said, I accepted her request. And of course, there were pictures of the ex with his new girl in the mix. Eh, maybe they're happy together. Maybe he won't cheat on her, or yell at her or control her life...maybe. I was glad to find I really couldn't care. However, as I am a Googler (I randomly Google people. It's what I do.) I googled the ex. I used his email knowing that's his online persona. Lo and behold, he IS cheating on her too. The first thing that came up was an online dating site. Are you KIDDING me? You're that blatant about it now? Good Lord I dodged a big freaking bullet. I told Boo and he just chuckled. People never change. And I absolutely love my view from where I am right now.

I haven't actually communicated with his sister yet, just accepted the friend request. And yes, I will just sit on my new information. Not mine to share. After all, the current girl knowingly cheated with him behind my back. Sounds like karma to me.
