I've recently ended a relationship with a man that I loved but we were not compatible. We've been together over 3 yrs. When I initiated the breakup I did explain I did not feel like a priority, that I felt like a NPC. It felt imbalanced and he did apologise for taking me for granted. He told me that I was the nicest person he has ever met, and that he'd rather have me as a friend than drop out of his life completely as he values me and really likes me as a person. We attended a few family engagements after that conversation and on the last day I did say that if a friendship is to take place, we need a 30 no contact period to help us emotionally detach. He initially said that is too long, but it's been 3 weeks and we have both stuck to it. His mother has reached out to say over the last couple of weeks that I'm still part of the family and that she loves me which was sweet to hear and made me believe things are still amicable.
My ego is a little bruised and I know that what I will say next is probably petty or pointless in the grand scheme of things but please bear with me. I was on FB and noticed he had taken down most of our photos together, which I expected tbh at some point yes but, when we first started dating and became friends on FB I noticed that he had kept all of his photos of his ex on there, even though he had split up with her 2 yrs prior (photos of them as a couple at events and hols). I brought it to his attention at the time as I was curious and he took them down.
So, my Ego is a little bruised as I say. I feel hurt that he's taken ours down so quickly, it feels like he doesn't care, and that he's just gotten over this breakup so quickly and that whatever he said about me he didn't mean and that is now not amicable?
Help me snap out of it
