Aeryn Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Alright, so a little situation here. My ex and my uncle (age 23) are still friends. They still have each other added on Facebook and all too. My great-grandmother is in ICU right now, and she's basically on her deathbed. My uncle put a status up about this, and now my ex is commenting and asking my uncle all of these questions about it. Now, some people may see nothing wrong with this. However, I don't feel that my ex should have any business knowing about family matters, and putting in his two cents, after breaking up with me. If he can't be with me, he sure as hell doesn't need to know what's going on in my life, or my family's lives. I've asked my uncle a few times to not let my ex know anything about me, or family matters. He says "ok" but then does it anyways. Advice? Maybe I should log onto my ex's Facebook and delete/block my uncle. That way they each think that they deleted each other, and are no longer friends. Ughhh. I don't know! Link to comment
Duckie198100 Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 If he's friends with your uncle, you really don't have much say. Your ex is probably trying to be a good friend by showing his concern. Unless your uncle decides to not be friends with him on his own, I think you need to let it go. Link to comment
Caterina Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 I'd delete the uncle.I think family should support family. Link to comment
DN Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Were they friends independently of you? If so, then he is supporting his friend and so he should. Link to comment
Aeryn Posted April 23, 2009 Author Share Posted April 23, 2009 They were not friends independently of me. If it weren't for me, they would have never met. And they never really hung out together unless I was there too. Link to comment
DN Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Well, if they are not really friends then ask your uncle to cool it out of consideration for you. Link to comment
lavenderdove Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Try to talk your Uncle into de-friending your ex on Facebook. Explain to him that it is too upsetting for you to see this on his Facebook. He may or may not be willing to do it, but at least you can try to persuade him to do so. Also tell him that if he talks to your ex, you'd prefer he not discuss you or your business with the ex, so it is clear what you're trying to ask him to do. Link to comment
