My ex broke up because we lived 4 hours apart and neither of us was ready to move. He ended up meeting someone closer to him. I decided to cut off contact so I can move on.

However, its been 10 months since we had contact. I don't know if he's still with the same chick either. He doesn't have Face book but his brother still does. I am contemplating messaging him to ask if he's still with the same girl. I am just curious? What do you think? I will let his brother not to let my ex knw that I am inquiring information about him.

Is this bad idea?

I'm sorry but yes, it is a bad idea. His brother will tell him about your inquiry. It has been 10 months. It would be best to let sleeping dogs lie. Why would you like to know if he is still with her after all this time? Is it curiosity / closure based? Or do you still have feelings for him?

Trying to find out about it might make it look like you haven't moved on and you are not over it and now you are stalking him. Only way to find out is through looking him up online like on Facebook and all to see if he has any information bout him for the public to see.

I understand. I've been curious about an ex before and not because I wanted them back. I was able to glean what I wanted to know from facebook, I know you mentioned your ex wasn't on facebook. Try to put it out of your mind. :)
