She started calling me the Google Queen.
I am highly addicted to Google and they are my #1 search engine. At this point I don't think I could even name another. It's not necessary to know anything beyond Google.
I've even used Google for work purposes; gaining information on potential new customers that left me with a bad feeling (remind me of that story later, I'll tell it).
No doubt, I have Mad Google Skillz.
So, the other night I Google the name of my ex serious boyfriend and find that he's married, with 2 children; a boy and a girl. And then the strangest thing happened....there was this empty hole and a gnawing in my gut.
I mean, of course he got married & had a family! Afterall, *I* did, why shouldn't he? It was a reaction I was not expecting to have. What did I think? That he was still waiting for me?! Totally irrational. I know better.
This leads me to a couple questions....have you Googled an ex and found something shocking? But more importantly, does this label us as Google Stalkers?

I didn't have my experience through google, but through myspace. I found out that my ex had gotten married, had a little boy, and a set of b/g twins. I dealt with some feelings over that that I wasn't prepared to feel either. We talk here and there through Facebook and through e-mail now and sometimes it still feels weird. He was my first serious boyfriend...and given that I only had 2 serious relationships (Andy being one of them) it makes sense that I held a special place for him in my heart, but I too was not prepared to feel what I felt...and still do feel at times. I don't know that I can really explain the feeling though if I had to put it into words. I just have to realize that he'll probably always have a special place in my heart.
Yes, I have...and yes, it does! LOL!
But if being a google stalker is wrong, I don't want to be right!
