They’ve been broken up for 5 years. No kids. They only dated for less than a year. He has spoken about her quite a bit, nothing truly negative happened, I think they just split because they were young/he didn’t want to be in a relationship at the time (from what he’s said).
Weve been together a few months, but we’re friends before that for a few years. He’s very independent but is lovely when we spend time together.
He gets notifications on his Apple Watch and I’ve seen her name pop up a few times. I asked about it and he showed me - a message saying “hello, sorry to get in touch out of the blue, I’ve got a couple of books yoj left here, do you want them back?” and then a few days later “I can send in the post if you want, let me know either way”.
He told me they’d spent time together last year, met up quite a lot to do their shared interest together. I think she stopped speaking to him from what I remember. Even before we got together he said there was nothing between them anymore.
I didn’t think much of it and then the other night I saw him he said “oh (ex) has just unblocked me on Facebook and Instagram” …
when I said that it was strange he shrugged his shoulders. He won’t stop contact with her so no point asking.
aibu to think this kinda friendship is not okay?? I think she’s fishing for more contact and I’m gonna be pushed away
