To feel upset by ex’s behaviour?

[Jellywallet]

I’m recently out of a long term relationship.

My ex was the one who ended it, citing that his feelings weren’t there any more and he was struggling internally with a whole host of things and needed to be alone to work on himself as a person and had no intentions of being with anyone else any time soon as he wanted this time to focus on himself.

As of yesterday, he has photos plastered all over his Facebook with a girl he has just become Facebook friends with, whom he met abroad last week. I have since I friended him because I don’t want to see all of that but the damage has already been done to certain extent and I feel pretty crushed.

I know for sure that he has to approve tagged photos as per his Facebook settings so I can only assume he wanted me to see the photos. We ended on fairly good terms - I don’t get it? :(

Edit: since UNfriended him*

Are the photos definitely of him in a relationship with this woman, could she just be a holiday fling or even just a friend? Of course you are hurt but in reality he will move on and meet new people. This is unlikely to be anything serious but he won't remain celibate for ever.

You were right to unfriend him. Its best you keep yourself as separate from him as possible until you can feel indifferent to him.

Also just for background, I’ve never know him to be the game-plying type and we we broke up he was adamant that he still cared about me and would continue to but for some reason he couldn’t put his finger on the romantic feelings were no longer prominent. He had said how he wanted me to be happy and to be the one who moved on first so this is just all really conflicting now and I don’t understand the apparent 180

No point torturing yourself over it. He probably doesn't even understand it all himself! Draw a line and move on.
