Oh god. Similar thing happened to me. We dated once and she talked about her ex quite a bit. I looked him up (not hard to find someone's ex if you have them on fb) The next date we had, I was talking about some guy i knew who was a total geek midget in high school and is/was a world champion body builder. Tapped on the search box at the top of fb and her ex was the first result before I even typed anything. Needless to say, it didn't work out. I'm better looking though.
