You can't escape from your past, OP. It's called Karma and it's got you now!
Obviously something happened in their relationship to where she doesn't want to see him again. And even if OP did do something to her ex, she still doesn't want to see him and especially work with him, or this wouldn't have been an FML.
Karma has nothing to do with one's current life. So many ignorant people throwing the word around... it affects what happens when you die.
No, 35, I'm quite certain karma applies to the current life too hence making your comment rather ironic.
19- im fairly certain what happened in their past was that they broke up. speaking from personal experience, bumping into an ex is awkward regardless of how you broke up. OP was probably just trying to diffuse the situation
I'm fairly certain karma isn't real.
I'm sorry, OP, that sucks!
"I agree, your life sucks." No need to rephrase such a wonderful sentence.
^i was thinking the same thing
So... You own a company?
No, the same company OP works for hired her boyfriend
He's just saying that it's not as though she owns the company. They're both allowed to work there even if it's awkward
I'm not serious. Just pointing out that someone could figure that because she said "My company."
It's funny that some people say they weren't serious only after they start getting some negative feedback on their comment. Maybe she does own the company. But so what? That's not entirely relevant, and if you chose to nitpick on that detail, I think you missed the point of this FML. Also, FML only allows the stories to be up to 300 characters, so sometimes there isn't enough room to phrase things in the best way possible.
Yea, "the company I work at" was probably too long.
This FML was 200 characters...
Did you really count how many characters there were?
34, I don't think he was suggesting that she quit her job, but pointing out that those are her only two options.
Lesson #1 The boss likes NyQuil in his/her/its coffee because it's sweet.
It sounds like since he stopped to talk to you, you're at least on fairly good terms. Maybe you could at least become decent friends again someday
Exactly, have to be thankful for what you got. Things can always be worst OP.
Grow up, you can't erase your past just deal with it. If it that big a deal find a new job...
I would think people break up because-- they no longer want to see/deal with their ex. Yes, the OP could remain civil but that doesn't mean seeing that person every day, (perhaps 40 plus hours a week) is what anyone would want. And finding another job might not be as easy as you make it out to be. :P
Have fun with that.
