lailax3 Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 A few days ago, on a social networking site, I messaged a guy about a quote on his profile. He responded, said I was pretty, general chit chat in the space of 5 messages. He had his image private. Mine were visible. No big deal as I was just interested in the quote stuff. So today his images were public. He seemed to look really familiar. Now, I'm certain he is the ex's younger brother based on a group picture the ex had sent me. I had never met the brother. Don't even know his name. The age matches though to what I was told and certain characteristics I was able to pick up from his profile. He messaged me again saying 'looking forward to hearing from you soon '. Do I just ignore him or tell him I won't be continuing conversation.
amaysngrace Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 How close were you with your ex if you don't even know who his brother is? 2
Author lailax3 Posted June 17, 2013 Author Posted June 17, 2013 How close were you with your ex if you don't even know who his brother is? They weren't even close amongst themselves. So I don't think it's shocking I don't know much about the guy. However I know enough to have figured out he's my ex's brother.

Author lailax3 Posted June 17, 2013 Author Posted June 17, 2013 Well if they aren't close and you and your exBF aren't close then what's the big deal? I just wasn't sure whether to just ignore this guy completely, or make up an excuse to stop communicating with him. I stated that above. Never mentioned it being a 'big deal'.
amaysngrace Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 I just wasn't sure whether to just ignore this guy completely, or make up an excuse to stop communicating with him. How do you know for sure it's his brother if you never even met the guy? Anyway if you're still hung up on your ex enough to see a random guy and think of your ex then maybe you aren't ready to be with anyone yet.

Wow, you should really read initial posts opening a thread, before making assumptions and being patronising. Thank you for responding, nonetheless.
amaysngrace Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 Wow, you should really read initial posts opening a thread, before making assumptions and being patronising. Thank you for responding, nonetheless. I read all of your posts about your ex. Two months together, electronic communication and now this one where you say you think it's your ex's brother based on a picture. And again I would say that if you aren't close enough with your ex to know who his family is then 1) maybe it's not his brother and 2) if it is then what's the big deal? Especially knowing that these two presumably bothers aren't even close. 1
