My Girlfriend of the time dumped me in a big showy way in a club infront of all our mutual friends for maximum humiliation. I was gutted. They all left, I walked to the other end of the club for a drink. Got chatting to a couple of girls one of which I considered out of my league. So I wasnt even trying. We had a dance, got on well. She gave me her surname and I didnt have a pen and paper.
When I got in in a drunken mess I circled the page in the telephone directory. Phoned her up, the rest is history. Been together for 14 years now and married for about 4. And they say rebound never works
My ex never let it go though, phoned me up many times in the first year to tell me how I couldnt have cared to get with someone so soon blah blah. Even 10 years after we met at a pub and she was bleating on about it.
I'm always thankfull to my ex for helping find me someone who turned my life around in many good ways.
