@ OP

insecure - means it didn't end well and you still have feelings for this guy

I WOULD NEVER go with a fake date - dress beautifully and - work on yourself internally from today until the wedding.

Also remember that men have the same feelings that we have, he is probably thinking the same inside. Go by yourself - you could meet a wonderful man who won't approach you in the presence of the fake date.

I would smile a brilliant smile - hold my head high and strut my dayum stuff - dance, eat and be merry.

There is the possibility that the guy may want more than that and he could be real if he is single as well. So be guided.

@comotdere
Pls, what are the repercussions you're forseeing?

Taking fake dates only happens in the movies or more a less the outcome is only positive in movies, lol. Just be yourself and dress to impress. Chances are he'll notice you and the tinge of regret will kick in when he realizes what he's missing out on.

Btw, nice to see another Shawn on the boards, my name is Shawn as well.

Are you forgetting its about a WEDDING? A happy union?
Go for the right reasons, like supporting and being happy for the couple getting married.

Your ex can go shag himself

@all
Thanx all. Yeah, being single is not a crime.
I get you. Well, its not like I planned to introduce the guy as my BF or anything. That would be disrespectful to his woman.
I would only have introduced him as 'a friend' and leave the rest to people's imagination.
Maybe I seem so vain. But I know my ex, he's so vindictive that he'l probably push his g/friend into my nose if was possible.
My idea was more lyk: a cool guy to accompany, and make me look less alone?
But nobody being in support of this idea, makes it less attractive. . . .

to be honest i wouldn't show up, it will cause to much tension. i'd save my worries and stay home and relax.plus if u don't show up,ur ex bf will be mad because he can't do anything to humiliate you or get back at you.

U came into this world all by yourself and will die one day by yourself, why dont you feel proud, stand up for yourself and say I'm happy to be different from the crowd. Like "Sprite" would say image is nothing, obey your thirst ie appreciate and adore yourself. maybe your next husband might be at the wedding, so renting a BF automatically shuts the door to a new relationship.

take a hunk with as a date but do not try do embarassing things to make him jelous. you know how us ladies can seek attention by prending to be extra happy, laughing out loud bla bla bla. just be cool
