Have you both applied to do the same course?

If you haven't most likely you won't see much of each other.

But. Don't worry about it. It's your like and you need to focus on yourself and doing well for yourself. Don't let anyone get in the way. I made that mistake.

Lots of classes are in the same college (arts). I know at least ten people from my high school that go to University of Houston but I have yet to see them anywhere. Universities are huge and even though he may have classes in the same art college, he'll have different professors, buildings, and class times. In college, not seeing someone works out much better than it did in high school.

The big question that I have to ask is why does this matter? People break up every single day and still have to learn how to get along with each other. It's very unlikely that you will be any more than just peripherally aware that he's around. Unless you are going to an extremely small college, it's very easy to avoid someone you don't want to talk to. Hell, my college is small to medium sized and it's enormous compared to my high school.

So what really worries you about going to the same school as him? Is it anything more than just getting your hopes up that you wouldn't have to?

Hope he doesn't get in? :D..

Everyone is right - even if you both go there you won't have to see him or deal with him if you don't want to. There's lots of people I know are here and haven't seen around, and there are even people I met on the first day that were in my classes that I haven't seen since.

If you don't want to see him, you don't have to - just focus on school and all the new friends you'll likely make, and don't let the fact that he's there bother you.

You will barely see him. Do not worry about it.

I can understand the concern, it's not the best feeling in the world seeing someone after you've broken up with them or after you've been broken up with, regardless of the reason. You should feel pretty comfortable with your chances of not seeing him though, they're slim to none.

I go to College with a lot of old friends and never run into them, I have to text and meet them or something. I have classes with two people I knew, chances are you're going to have to see him at all, even if you do, you're going to be too busy or caught up in what you're doing in your classes and trying to get to the next one.

don't worry about it university is a big place you might not even bump into each other.However if you've moved on this wouldn't bother you and I know it will probably feel awkward at the start but you'll soon get to university.

The world doesn't revolve around you. Your ex's reasons for picking that school wasn't probably even related to you in any way.

If its a large college, then don't worry.. You probably wont see him.

College is big. You'll probably pass by each other accidentally at some point, but it will be all too easy to pass him by. Maybe you'll grow toward being friends again? Is that something you would want? Seems like people tend to change quite a bit between high school and college.

Even if you go to the same college, you could go the whole semester with barely seeing him. Theres so many classes and people at college that it would be easy to completely ignore each other

well nothing will happen if you stay away from him. Don't talk to him on choice, don't give him a chnce to ruin your life again. he will soon get the message and stop talking. and then you can move on with your life. Unless you don't want to move on but that is all your choice.
