e4u Posted November 21, 2014 Posted November 21, 2014 My ex and I broke up recently (she dumped me). We met at work (neither one of us works there anymore) and are connected only on LinkedIn to one another at this point (we're NC now). I even wrote a very good LOR for her on that site when we were still together. Do I delete the LOR and connection? Keep in mind, many of our former co-workers we both keep in touch with will probably notice the very obvious/nice LOR is gone and that we never told them we were going out. P.S. She hasn't deleted me as a connection...yet.
SoThatHappened Posted November 21, 2014 Posted November 21, 2014 Eh... it's LinkedIn so she's likely not going to post a picture that involves anyone but her. The worst she can do (and the worst you can see) is a new picture of her looking great. If you can handle that, then okay. If you can't: Delete
Diezel Posted November 21, 2014 Posted November 21, 2014 Delete. Trust me. I kept an ex on LinkedIn because I never use it and forgot. After two job "promotions" I got a text from her blasting me about how good I was doing without her in my life. And then a bunch of expletives.

It had to feel good knowing that you didn't have to put up with that **** on a daily basis. Didn't it? NC means no contact. So delete this line of communication.

So delete this line of communication. I did. I actually feel much better. I'm not on any social media besides LinkedIn, nor have I ever been, so this was my only connection and I DREADED going on LinkedIn because of the fear I had of seeing her face (setting back my healing process). I feel like a huge weight is now off of my shoulders. I cut the last string today and I feel really good about it. 1
