I'm about to send my ex a friend request on fb

[4TimesIntoTheSameWall]

I'm over him. He was emotionally abusive but I've got on with life. Can I send him this request? I don't love him anymore but I want him to know that my life has carried on and I've moved on. Even if it still hurts sometimes.

As a side note one of my good friends got married today so I'm feeling a little emotional.

No! Just ignore him! Sending him a friend request will make him think you're thinking if him. If he's ea, what's the point? Ignore!

No dont do it. Step away from facebook.

Don't be daft! Step away from the keyboard!

This is a man who abused you. He has no right whatsoever to know anything about your life.

Go on a dating site if you're feeling low. Find a site connected to a hobby. Post on here. Just DON'T send that bastard a friend request. He isn't your friend.

It sends a clear message that you have not moved on at all!!!

Why would you do that?

Not moved on. You still care what he thinks. Move on, then don't add him.

Step away from the fb

Don't do it. He is not a friend. You might be over him but do not be friends with someone who abused you. The friend request shows quite the opposite - that he still has brain space.

This feeling you have will pass.

I'm feeling very low. Is there anyone willing to listen to me then?

Yes! Am happy to listen to you!

Of course. But don't send the friend request.

God no don't do it! Keep posting here instead

Don't add him.
But feel free to chat away. I'm all ears......????

Why can't I send him a fb friend request? It's not a crime?

Definitely listening and definitely don't send!

Maybe he'll see how much I've moved on?? And much better my life is?

Because you're thinking of him, clearly.

For the reasons given above! Of course it's not a crime but it would be a bad idea and make you feel worse not better.

But he's not your friend, he was ea towards you, listen to the pp's and step away from Facebook, we'll talk to you instead

Don't send it - block him instead. He was EA, you don't need him in your life and you don't need him knowing what you are doing.

Don't do it. You should want or need to do this. Not doing it is the best way of showing and actually being over him.

But you sending him a friend request will probably make it look to him as if you HAVEN'T moved on at all. It'll show him you're still thinking about him.

It's not a crime but if you are over him you won't care what he thinks of your life.

You don't need the approval or 'jealousy' of so,some who has emotionally abused you. How will you feel if he doesn't accept your friend request or if he sends a message saying 'I can't quite remember who you are. Are you john's sister?'

It's far better to show him you've moved on by not contacting him at all, thus showing him you haven't given him a thought.
