I have three associates, let's call them, A B and C.
A was a former coworker but close friends with the other two. Generally it was amicable on site, didn't expect to keep in touch when I left the job, but he acted very aloof a couple of months ago when I had to return back to my former workplace (for the one and only time) after being bullied out of my job by another coworker (not in his department). I can appreciate that I am an ex-coworker so that working relationship is no longer there but I thought his behaviour was quite disrespectful. I didn't let my guard down with anyone, and resigned on my own terms. I can appreciate that's he's on duty, but he bizarrely bulldozed a meeting I was in with a mutual friend. B acts as the bridge online between us all, acting polite, professional and respectful. I also knows that he facilitates information back to the group. He goes back earlier with 'A' as close mates. 'C' is a former work client, who was nice in business dealings, and is on social media with me. I can appreciate they have different business/social dynamics living and working in the same area, but just recently there's a lot of christmas postings of them online which is bittersweet when 'A' has been a little two-faced in his business dealings after I left. I shouldn't care what the company does as an ex-member of staff but they also seem to 'time' social media posts regarding community events on specific key dates i am in town (dates I've told 'B' about) which I interpret as keeping it open and friendly to everyone. They don't post every week. I want to wish them well - but should I just let them go and keep hold of the good memories in the job?
