The friends that mean well when it comes to your ex (rant)

 

Ex leaves you for or immediately hooks up with some one else and begins a new

relationship

. Its a very common occurrence in this forum from what I've read.

 

And of

course

when you're in a LTR you have friends that are in as much denial as you can be in. WHY? WHAT?! You were perfect together?

 

I suppose my curiosity lies with just how much did they (ex's) go around telling the mutual friends or the virtual world how happy they were with the new person, and how long it lasted. (the 'bragging' or whatever you call it, not the relationship) Just until the

honeymoon

stage is over?

 

I don't understand why someone would volunteer information like that when no one asked, or keep assuring everyone that they dont regret their decision or their

new relationship

when once again- no one asked.

 

IMO

its kind of immature- if no one asks, then leave it be. It's your life to screw up or make better as you see fit. You dont have to justify your actions to anyone. And if you aren't justifying, convincing them (our yourself), then you're trying to let it get back to me. Well congrats buttwipe it worked.

 

I'

m

sticking to the

NC

, but crap! Mutual friends and acquaintances are constantly bringing things up- like how its annoying how my ex is always

talking

about how happy he is- not like in a ' yeah I'

m

better here' way but in an exaggerated way that comes off as 'suspicious' (according to them- though I reluctantly agreed it wasnt like him to be like that). If that makes any sense.

 

I get frustrated because people tell me things, and I have interrupted conversations because I dont want to hear how 'weird' it is that my ex-fiance now has 'the love of his life' in his new

gf

and yet still had couple

pictures

of us on his fb and only one pic of them. ectectect...yes its weird and screwed up. But what the hell can I do about it? I cant do anything to or for him, and he has to be the one who works on him or whatever.

 

I know they think they mean well but I dont want to hear it. It bothers me. We broke up like 6 weeks ago(together 6.5 years). Even though I'

m

telling everyone I'

m

ok- I'

m

not. and I dont want to hear about this. Yeah I think its utter

BS

.

IMO

she's a white trash beotch who is using him to get back at his brother she dated for like 2 years and broke up with 6 months ago( and was sleeping with up till thanksgiving)

so

yeah- I think he's smitten. He thinks he's happy. Let him have it. It will

work

out or not. It's his problem.

 

The bottom line is even though I think she's trash, if she's what he wants more power to him. I love the guy, and I want him to be happy with or without me. Do I think she'll crush him one day? You bet. But that is on him.

 

I'

m

handling the whole thing a lot better then I wanted to- trust me I wanted to do a lot of things, and could have. But I'

m

a much better and mature person-for the most part. My rants have been reserved for you peps.

 

So

I guess to make this a little better:

 

Anything similar happen(ing) to you guys?

How did you handle it?

What happened in the end (if it ended) with the 'bragging'

FB tends to be a recurring evil theme in a

BU

, huh? (lol. jkjk)
