so tempted

melymay

So . . my ex, still friends from about 10 years ago, is seeing someone I'm friends with on FBook . . we worked together about the same time 10 years ago(Girl and me). but don't think they knew each other IYSWIM

She has posted a msg about how thoughtfull he is with flowers etc for Valentines . . . I am so tempted to msg her and say, 'I taught him well' but think that's the bitter single b*tch in me after seeing all those loved up couples on adverts all day !!

RANT OVER . .wine beckons

10 years ago?? I think you still have feelings for this to warrant a thread.

I don't really understand this. It is an ex from ten years ago and it is not like he cheated on you with her or anything...?

I remember once something popping up on FB where a friend had 'liked' a status of my ex's new girlfriend. It said something like 'one year together today'. Well....one year before that date, he was still with me! So it seemed our relationship and theirs overlapped by about a month. It took ALL my self control not to leave a comment. I was devastated as it was the first confirmation I had that he had actually cheated (I had suspected but he had always denied).

Yeah, I think it's best not to.

After ten years, the only thing it will do is make it look like you're not over him and jealous.

We're still friends , on a meet up for a drink sort of basis, he never mentioned a relationship so it was a bit of a difference to our conversation on the next night out

I'm only friends with one ex on facebook, and that's because we are truly friends.

For most of them, its generally better to just delete them from everywhere you can and try to pretend they stopped existing when you broke up with them.

Why on earth would you want to make one of your friends feel miserable because her boyfriend is being kind to her?

Move on.

How tongue in cheek is this reference to yourself? Sad fact is that this is exactly how you would come across to two people that you currently consider to be friends, if you carried out what boils down to passive aggressive behaviour. If this is what you are seriously considering doing whilst wine just beckons, then I would suggest that you stay away from alcohol for the evening. Who knows what you may be tempted to do once you have actually had a few!

I believe the OP posted this not to really get a response but more to get it off her chest. If so, job done

If an actual response was wanted, then just sit back with your wine and feel sorry for the poor girl/smug that you're not the one in for a nasty shock if the guy is that bad!
