Even if said text is in relation to a website you've set up? (so not obviously untoward etc)

I am not the GF by the way, but recipient of the text.

Just for further info, we have 'dated' in the (fairly recent) past, and website is just in relation to a hobby-type thing, not anything business related.

I suspect IAprobablyBU, but it's just annoyed me a bit!

YABU unless there's a blanket 'no texting anyone' whilst on holiday rule.

WorraLiberty · 14/04/2013 13:42

Annoyed you why?

I think sending a text is perfectly reasonable.

IYoniWantToBeWithYou · 14/04/2013 13:42

YABU, is there some sort of rule that you aren't allowed to text on holiday that I'm not aware of?

DioneTheDiabolist · 14/04/2013 13:43

Are you annoyed that he's texting you? Or are you getting annoyed on behalf if his GF?Confused

Or are you hoping he's texting you for unmoral reasons regarding his GF in hopes that he still likes you and this is sort of confirming it for you?

yaimee · 14/04/2013 13:48

I think you might be a bit Envy

VelvetSpoon · 14/04/2013 13:51

Texting friends, family, colleagues even I can understand. But I am not in any of those categories. So I'm a bit bemused/irritated (annoyed was probably too strong a word on reflection!) as to why he has sent it in the first place or indeed why he still has my number (I deleted his).

and I definitely have no interest in him - he revealed himself to be an entitled arse during the brief time I was involved with him, this text is just further proof of that (as if I would be interested in his website!)

Just ignore him and smile condescendingly.

IYoniWantToBeWithYou · 14/04/2013 13:54

Its probably just a mass text sent to everyone and you are overthinking it. He probably didn't even give it enough thought to delete your number from his phone.

Jinsei · 14/04/2013 13:54

Sounds to me like you still like him and that you're hoping that he's not that into his new gf. Sorry!

yOU LOVE IT

usualsuspect · 14/04/2013 14:02

How do you know he's on holiday?

Have you been snooping on his FB? Grin

Gales · 14/04/2013 14:03

Was there a proper reason for the text? You said it was about a website, but did it need sending itswim?

Goodadvice1980 · 14/04/2013 14:06

OP, is it spacetwunt??

BruthasTortoise · 14/04/2013 14:06

YABU unless he did it in a "look at me, aren't I great being on holidays and having a new GF" kind of way. My DH's ex used to do that but it fizzled out as the years want on.

ShipwreckedAndComatose · 14/04/2013 14:07

its none of your business really.

Unless he steps over some sort line in what he is typing to you.

Stepissue · 14/04/2013 14:13

Why would you care??? Confused

VelvetSpoon · 14/04/2013 14:15

It didn't really need sending - well not to me anyway. I do think it is a bit 'look at me' but that's what he's like...

Goodadvice do I 'know' you?!
