This just in from TodayShow.com…

In the new romantic comedy “Forgetting Sarah Marshall,” the broken-hearted main character takes a recovery trip to Hawaii, only to find his ex-girlfriend there… with a new beau. Have you ever had an encounter with an ex that completely mortified or shocked you? Ever run into a former love and say something bizarre or clumsy? Did you stalk, pine or obsess over an ex — with disastrous results? If you have a bad ex encounter, share it with us and we might feature it on TODAYShow.com!

Living in Los Angeles, I’m sometimes surprised how rarely I encounter an ex (thank God!). The only bad encounter I can recall is during my big breakup when my girlfriend and I went to lunch one day during the week (remember, I worked with Mr. Ex). We were going to try a new restaurant. I opened the door and the first person I saw was Mr. Ex. Seated across from him was a blond woman. He and I made eye contact, he smiled awkwardly, and I turned around and left the restaurant.

Later that day, out one of the windows in my office building I saw them standing very close together in the parking lot, talking and laughing. I knew I shouldn’t let myself just stand there, watching him enjoy the company of another woman, a beautiful woman I’d never seen before but I couldn’t stop myself. My heart raced and I wanted to throw up. But I stayed there and watched them. It was agonizing! My only consolation was that he never knew that I saw them in the parking lot. Ouch!
