I Stalked My Ex and Stumbled on His New Partner
Here’s how I feel…

I finally finished with my ex of 3 years back in July, we had broken up at the beginning of the lockdown due to the fact that we couldn’t be in one place, I wanted this to happen, but he was very reluctant to make the move.
I had spent my day creating an office space for him, a cute card on his side of the office with his name scribbled, and a poorly drawn heart to make things more romantic. He had packed his bags, but somehow decided to change his mind last minute, leaving me heartbroken that we would be apart for months.
Fast forward to August, I found out that he had in fact moved in with someone else for the second lockdown, contradicting every excuse he had given as to why we couldn’t move in together. His sister who I had developed a semi-good relationship with, had taken great joy in telling me all about it.
What a sweet woman!
Safe to say I was incredibly hurt and questioned the whole relationship. He had met this person, and it took him less than a month for them to move in together. I cried. Refused to eat for a period of time and thought I would never get into another relationship. You know, the usual woe is me, I’m so heartbroken shebang.
