Ran into my ex the other day

[Steve Z]

So I’ve posted on here before about a recent break up. It’s been a while and I’ve been doing some good work healing.

 

The other day I was at a friends place hanging out and my ex gf and some dude walk through the door. It made me really uncomfortable. My ex and I made eye contact and that was really it. She proceeded to stand directly in front of me talking about her present life and how everything was going great obviously trying to get a reaction of me. So I sat there and ignored her while she ran her mouth.

 

My question is, did I do the right thing I’m not speaking to her? She really broke me. This was my first time seeing her since the break up so I didn’t really know what to expect or how to handle the situation.

Any feedback will help.

I wish I could help you, I saw my ex today too but they didn't see me. I guess the question is what do you want? Like is your goal to move on? Be friends? Get back together? Though even knowing your goal I can't help you since I'm stuck in the same boat.

 

Stay strong

I think you did fine. As the one coming through the door she certainly could have politely said hello or whatever, but it doesn't sound like direct communication was necessary. I'm sure it caught you off guard. I bet your heart skipped several beats, huh?

I read your history. She sounds awful.

 

You did the right thing!

She sounds immature as hell. No reaction is the best reaction.

I also just read ur past thread. She doesn't deserve you and you are meant for much better.

Honestly I wish her well but there is nothing for me to say or any sort of friendship to build. Especially because of the way she acted when I saw her.

Thank you for seeing what I’m dealing with! Very hard for me to keep my mouth shut on this one!!
