Long story short, I pushed my ex away because I was dealing with a lot of stuff in my life(stupid). While I did this she began dating someone else, I told her I wanted her back but she wasn’t sure she could trust me. Basically for the next 2 months she has been getting serious with this other guy, meanwhile giving me slight hope that maybe we can reconsile. After putting up with this for 2 long I put her to the decision and she told me she has to give it a shot with the new guy but she doesn’t want to lose me as a friend, I told her that doesn’t work and So I began to go no contact which is hard because we work together. But I don’t txt her and do my best to not interact with her. Which has helped me heal a little but then she continues to txt me like we are good friends.
Today on Valentine’s Day she sends me a meme that says “your my favorite ex boyfriend” and she says and I quote “Happy Valentine’s Day shithead. I was thinking of you. Thanks for always being there!” How the fuck is a person supposed to handle that especially when I’m still in love with her. Why would she send that?
She’s the only one who knows the reason for sending the Valentine. Calling you a shithead sounds like she’s angry with you… maybe because of the way you treated her that lead to the breakup. The new guy might be a rebound and if so, she will end it, but don’t try to talk her into breaking up with him. At work, be polite and cordial. Tell her you’re not going to contact her or answer her texts for at least 30 days in order for you to heal from the breakup. Hopefully she will want to try and reconcile by talking through all the issues you two had during the relationship and what you both intend to do in order to improve a possible future relationship with each other.
Good luck.
Shithead was a word we used to jab one another. But that is good advice. I was going good not really thinking about it but the “your my favorite ex boyfried” meme for some reason really hurt. I know she was just trying to be nice but I wish she would have not even contacted me on that day.
Name calling is disrespectful and doesn’t help make for a good relationship.
“your my favorite ex boyfried” is just another sign of disrespect and cruelty.
I hope you follow my advice and let her know you don’t want contact, nor will you reply to any of hers…
