I don't feel like having this convo with friends in real life. My ex and I split about a year and half ago almost. In this time we have been LC to NC. Outside of one attempt to get some property back, all contact has been initiated by her. In almost all cases I have not replied.

 

I have moved on and into a new relationship now. Still every couple months my ex will reach out via text or phone call. Always with the "how you doing", "hope things are going well...", etc. I know she is still with the guy she left me for. Again a few days ago I get a text saying Hi w/ her acknowledging she heard I have a new GF. I never replied, but for some reason I feel bad for not doing so. She recently moved away from all friends/family (including new guy temporarily I think), and I am sure she is lonely. These details had been given via a mutual friend.

 

We dated for nearly 8 years, so of course we were best friends during that time. I still remember the feeling when I would see her sad or in pain, and I cant help but feel that when I ignored her message the other day. Please someone remind me shes a cheater and user to make me feel a bit better about not responding.

 

as a side note, 1 1/2 years out and feeling pretty damn good. Miss the ex only as a friend at this point. My new girl is sexy, smart, funny and wants to do anything to make me happy. I feel very fortunate to have found someone like that. I just adding this for those of you going through a tough breakup. It will get better, just have patience. Keep your mind busy and find new hobbies. I hit the gym, got back in shape. Once my confidence was back, I approached all aspects of life better. I didn't meet this girl through some new hobby or online dating. Just out shopping and started up a conversation. ok that came off like I have something to sell you, so Ill just end it here.

Sounds great man, continue moving on, most of the time there is nothing to look back on.

Will that do?

I am sure your current g/f would not like you responding to your exes text.

I am not going to, for that reason, and because I haven't yet so why start now. Doesn't change the fact I feel bad for her with her current situation. I can't imagine what emotions she must be feeling to be alone and continue to reach out to me knowing I most likely won't respond.

If she cheated on you, she certainly didn't care enough about you and the situation she was putting you through.

 

Sounds like you have moved on, found an awesome girl and you're happy. What more could you want? Ignore the ex and live in the present with all of the great things you have. Can't worry about her forever. Kudos!
