Eh, I wouldn’t let it get to you. If anything, the ex-best friend might be mad at the girl and trying to link up with you as a way to upset her. If you haven’t spoken to the ex directly, I say let it go. You can keep the conversation short, stop responding or just block her. Eventually she’ll get the hint.IP: Logged |

Yes. But blocking is only effective online. There’s chances she can still get to me in real life because I’m a bible student at the church she’s in. I’m not about to stop attending just because of her. IP: Logged |

I see but you are not obligated to be her friend or tell her about your life or talk to her online. You can be cordial if you come across her at church. I suppose if I was in your situation I would not block her then but would ignore her online via messenger, she will get the hint you don't feel comfortable talking to her online about your life, no response says a lot. If she has the guts to be intrusive in person if you come across her in person you can be polite but firmly tell her you don't want to talk about that and then change the subject to small talk OR be vague in your responses and give her essentially non-answers, she will get the hint too. You can do this online too if you don't want to pignore her online. IP: Logged |

You can even skip telling her you don't want to talk about that and go straight to just not answering the question and redirecting the conversation to something light or small talk. You will still come off as polite and not nourish her intrusiveness or fall victim of it. IP: Logged |

If she says "hey why did you not answer my question?" then you say "I don't know you like that" or "I don't want to talk about that." The second one is nicer, the first one is more blunt.IP: Logged |

ok so you told her that her ex boyfriend ( your current bf) was cheating on her with aa variety of other women, and then you thought you were done and that's about it? Of course she wont leave you alone, are you kidding me. You told her " the truth about her relationship which she didn't know while she was dating him" and then you thought you were done with her? Why did you tell her first of all? Did you get a level of satisfaction telling her that? You immediately entangled yourself in an unfinished business with her by telling her that. Now she wants to know more, naturally..She is hurt and humiliated, obviously.IP: Logged |

@hypatia238You’re right. I can always do that. I’ve just not talked to her in the past few weeks because that’s my way of saying, “this is over and I don’t want anymore drama with you”. She’s an Aries. I think she’ll somehow find a way to get in my face if her Libra/Scorpio tactics don’t work on me. I think she’ll get even more provoked if I don’t react to it or anything, to the point she will have to confront me. I think even if I establish boundaries, she’ll find a way to break in. But who knows. This is only the beginning of it. I can get really petty, too, I gotta admit. But if there’s no point, I’m not gonna do anything. I’ve stopped interacting with both of them—her and her friend. But like I said, if they don’t stop, I’m gonna have to do something about it. There are so many ways she can get to me. I’m only defending myself because I know now how manipulative she can get. I can get easily manipulated because I’m too emotional. I know that for a fact. Just trying to not fall for that trap in the future. That’s why I haven’t talked to her.

^^Is not the ex approaching her, is the friend of his ex-girlfriend.Regardless, I don't think exes should contact new girlfriends. If she wants to talk, she should talk to him and get what she needs to out of her chest. This is between the ex and her boyfriend. IP: Logged |

I told her because she wanted to know the truth. She thought he was cheating on her with me too but me and my bf were just friends at the time. She knew we were close and wanted some closure. She was the one that started discussing what happened, how we started getting closer while their relationship was getting sour, and how he ended everything with her and the other girls, etc. So I told her everything. I thought she was ready for it. But apparently not. I get it. She’s hurt, yes. Everything he did was sh*tty. But that’s not an excuse to be really nice to me and then try to manipulate me. She tried to break me and him up by getting to my head that one night she talked to me. I’ve been nothing but civil with her until then. IP: Logged |

I don’t know if they talked but I think that’s the path I should go next time. It’s better for them to talk and not get me involved in it. She does know though that she can use me to hurt him. But maybe if I tell her to talk to him directly, it might clear things up. IP: Logged |

Still... I cannot rule out the possibility too that they’re just simply trying to be friendly, either. It’s too early to decide at this point.IP: Logged |

Yes she put you in an uncomfortable position and you did the best you could. I personally would want to know if my ex cheated on me even if it was with one girl let alone a multitude of girls. But I guess setting that boundary were you say I was honest with you but at this point I don't think is healthy that we continue interacting for either of us and if you have any more questions you need to ask him directly. quote: Originally posted by Solar_Leo_Queen: I don’t know if they talked but I think that’s the path I should go next time.
