Ok namechanged for this one..

If you just happened to be having a little browse around a dating site and happened upon an exes profile would you:

a) Move swiftly on, everyone is entitled to their privacy

OR

b) Hit that 'open profile' button so hard that it leaves sparks, to havealaugh be able to offer constructive advice the next time you see them

Just pondering Hmm

Ignore. They are ex's for a reason and good luck to the poor woman who ends up dating them after.

I would look.
If it is full of lies you then email the link to all your friends and all have a laugh that they are so sad.

My friends ex is in match.com- apparently she is 41 and has no children and has never been married. She is 47 and has 2 and I was at the wedding.

I'd have a look...it is public information after all. Even if it was full of lies, I would never email it around as I think that's nasty.

Oh I'd be straight in there. If he's been a shithouse ex, I might even set up a fake profile complete with pictures of a Jolie-like woman to lead him on then drop him like a hot brick. Grin

What?

Well I picked B after lengthy consideration of A ( well for about 5 nanoseconds) and my thoughts were 1. bloody hell was he pissed when he wrote that! and 2. Oh he sounds so lovely on paper Hmm
