I've now been doing no contact with my ex girlfriend since 9/18 (we broke up 9/17) and despite feeling mild sadness once in a while, I am completely over it. I never plan on talking to her again or being friends with her and have no desire to have her in my life again. Her best friend, however, texted me a few weeks after the breakup to express her condolences (her friend broke up with me because her feelings had changed and she no longer thought of me as her boyfriend) and to tell me that the 2 of us could keep in touch and stay friends if I wanted to, and I said I wanted to and we chatted for a while longer. This friend, let's call her Kim, befriended me as soon as my ex and I started dating and invited me as well every time she invited my ex to hang out in the 3.5 months we were together. We've only talked twice since she first contacted me, and her friendship with my ex was rocky at the time, and we both said some pretty nasty things about my ex last time we talked. She mentioned also that she's here as a friend and not as someone who is out to hurt me. And she's engaged, so I know obviously she doesn't like me as anything more than a friend. Things between her and my ex are better now, and my mom says I shouldn't trust Kim because she will tell my ex everything I've said. Tomorrow is obviously Thanksgiving, so I'm wondering if I should shoot Kim a text to wish her a happy holiday or just not contact her. I don't have an interest in being best friends with Kim, but I'm fine with being friends and even hanging out once in a while and talking on holidays, birthdays, etc, as long as she seems trustworthy to you guys. So do you guys think I should wish her a happy Thanksgiving and trust her as a friend, or should I just leave it? And no, I am not texting my ex for the holiday because I have no desire to ever talk to her again. And I'm praying I will not hear from my ex either, because she did want to be friends after we broke up, but left me alone when I said no.

You're not over her if you're debating whether or not to text her. Don't text. Continue no contact.

No, If she is good friends with your ex, then stay away. If she contacts you, tell her you think it's for the best that you not keep in contact with any of your ex's friends. Who knows what will be passed on to your ex.
