fivefive Posted November 8, 2010 Posted November 8, 2010 So I haven't talked or seen my ex in nearly a year. The last time I talked to her was around Thanksgiving. It was brief and I just told her I hope she was doing fine and stuff like that. I have gone NC since then. Nearly a year later, and I still kinda miss her. I don't know what's wrong with me. Some days I'll completely be over her, then I'll just have those days where I'll think she was my everything. I thought time healed everything but it's been a year now and I still think about her. I saw that she has a Facebook, and I was wondering if I should friend request her? I can't really pinpoint my motive to do it. I guess it's a hope of reconciling and just missing her. How would you react if you received a friend request from an ex? Would it be awkward?

How would you react if you received a friend request from an ex? Would it be awkward? You shouldn't bother. You should work on making new friends and moving on with your life. If you request her as a friend it will piss her off...unless she wants to hurt you by allowing you to look at her information, seeing all the pictures of her with her new guy (she probably has one) and finding out in her info that she's in a relationship...or even engaged. Don't rub yourself in the past. Take more time...get over this lady...and proceed into the future. There was a good reason the two of you broke up. Why would you think at this point that reason has disappeared? Stay away from her on Facebook!!!
ReturnToSender Posted November 8, 2010 Posted November 8, 2010 Dont do it... Im glad my ex doesnt have a facebook, Id be all up in his nitz LoL But thats why he doesnt have one...well, other than that he thinks the internet is totally overrated and wishes everyone else would see that and stop using it altogether...
carhill Posted November 8, 2010 Posted November 8, 2010 OP, think of Facebook as a venomous serpent. Give it a wide berth. I recall, back before we separated over a year ago, my exW opened up a FB account, or so she said. I've actually never been to Facebook, ever, so I don't know if that's true or not. Our old MySpace pages are still intact from our years of marriage but I don't think she's been on MySpace for ages. I haven't checked that either, merely updated my pages with my travel and hobby stuff, which is what I use it for. IMO, you probably need to actively pursue another intimate partner to refocus your psyche away from the past. It's been long enough now. Make it a Christmas gift to yourself
Author fivefive Posted November 8, 2010 Author Posted November 8, 2010 I was leaning towards not requesting her. But, boy can I tell you, I have come so close SO many times. Every time I just let it go and take it one day at a time. I guess I just had another moment last night. I'm gonna block her so I can't se her profile anymore. Thanks for the input guys.
