Whatever2345 Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 It’s been a couple months since I posted anything about no contact but I’ve been a lot happier ever since. Then his moms fb was hacked but she ended up actually talking to see how I was and everything. Because usually when a ex’s mom texts it’s a bad sign I haven’t been texting his mom lately because that’s his mom you know? What do you think it means? ( no rude comments please just wondering) Link to post Share on other sites
basil67 Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 The topic of the conversation should give you a clue as to why she called. Link to post Share on other sites
assertives Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 She probably was genuinely curious how are you? Especially in this climate we are in now. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
kendahke Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 (edited) Quote What does it mean if ex's mom texts me? Usually, it means she's prying. What kind of a relationship did you have with her? I've never had the desire to text/message any of my daughter's boyfriends or ex's, so to me, it means she's poking her nose in your business.

hippychick3 Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 It could be genuine concern for how you are doing. My son just broke up with his girlfriend of almost 2 years, and I will miss her greatly. She was a very sweet girl and I would have loved for her to be my daughter in law someday. Knowing that won't happen makes me very sad. With my son's permission (I would never contact her without it), I reached out to her to tell her I would miss her and wished her the best. He asked me not to continue communicating with her, so I will not. But if he did not care either way, I can conceive that I may ask her how she is doing at some point with no hidden agenda. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
d0nnivain Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 It means his mother liked you as a person but she has poor boundaries. Her child will view the mom's contact with you as a betrayal. I'm all for polite interaction & a few minutes of small talk if you accidently bump into the family member of an EX but intentional keeping in touch, beyond a good bye conversation, is too much. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
ShyViolet Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 Why would it "mean" anything? Maybe your ex doesn't even know that his mom texted you, and might be mad at his mom if he found out. Maybe his mom is just being nosy. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
ExpatInItaly Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 I don't think there's any hidden meaning behind it. She was concerned about how you are, likely compounded by the current state of the pandemic. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
