For the longest time I avoided the places where I thought he might be but now I am fine with seeing him and his new girlfriend around. When they are together I do not talk to them though as I think that may be uncomfortable for him, not me. I was at a function a couple of nights ago. I saw him there and I think his girlfriend was with him. He saw me too. They left shortly after that. Could be that they had another function to attend. Hoping not discomfort with seeing me. I am anxious because I am not stopping myself from doing what I want to do. For the longest time I did. He and I have had no contact for several months. Any thoughts on how to play it when I see him with his new partner would help. Thanks for all answers

Maybe approaching him and her would ease the situation so they know your ok with and youve both left the past in the past. You cant spend your time avoiding each other especially if you live close and attend the same events frequently, which im gathering you do. Try and break the ice, be honest with them both and itll ease it eventually, its always going to be strange but the situation could be a lot worse. You have a history but your futures are going different ways that doesnt mean you have to cut off and avoid all eye contact etc nobody wants to live that way. best of luck
