My ex is getting married today. Though I have fully moved on, have an amazing relationship and will be getting married soon also, I can’t help but be petty and want to have been married first.

It’s not a matter of who got married first, but who will stay married longest. Focus on building a sustainable marriage. That’s how you do it!

Agreed! I don’t doubt that my partner and I will have a successful marriage. It’s one of those petty things that don’t matter in the long run.

Competing with an ex is a sad race indeed. Try not caring about them.

Indeed! They shared their best moments and resources with us and still we want to compete with them. Instead of thanking him/her for the joys they brought in our lives and supported us in trouble time.
