My ex and I broke up about three months ago. We haven't talked in about a month. Today one of my female friends told me she got a text from my ex inviting her to a birthday brunch. They were always cool with each other, but they only ever hung out when I was around. They never used to hang out with Justin each other and my friend hasn't talked to my ex really since we broke up. Does anyone else think this is weird? It seems like she is trying to mess with me almost, although I don't think she would do something like that. We left things on friendly terms.

I think you are reading too much into it. Maybe she really liked hanging out with your friend when you were dating and just randomly invited her? I'd just brush this off as nothing -- if it means anything there will be something a lot more obvious coming from your ex's camp in the future.

First of all, great job on a month NC! I know from your previous posts that you have been struggling, and I hope that you are starting to feel better.

 

Regarding the invite to your friend, I agree with Simon that you shouldn't overthink it. As much as possible, keep the focus on you & your healing, not your what your ex is or isn't doing. I might even suggest that you ask your friend not to tell you anything more about your ex (assuming that she goes to the brunch or receives other invites), as updates/information tend to tear the stitches out.

 

NC sometimes feels like a dungeon, but it is designed to provide you with a safe cocoon away from your ex where you can recover from the hurt of the breakup.

 

Sending good thoughts,

M.
