Today, I went to the surprise birthday party of an ex I still love, though I'm the one who ended things. I walked in in time to see her screaming "Yes" to her kneeling boyfriend, her parents crying and applauding, and her brothers patting him on the back. FML

You knew you would be asking for pain when you decided to go.

For everyone who is saying he deserves it for leaving her, just because you love someone doesn't mean you're supposed to be with them. Maybe there were other circumstances that made it best for him to end the relationship. Of course he may still love her afterwards, but he still could be doing the right thing.

I don't understand, why would you end things if you still loved her?

..Then why did you end things and why did you go? That must've been so heartbreaking, I'm sorry.

If you love something let it go. If it comes back its meant to be and if it doesn't it was never yours.

YDI for letting her go. Why end it if you love her? But if you love her feel happy for her.

Ouch. I suggest a good amount of tender, loving alcohol. Lots of alcohol.
