Should I be offended by an ex-girlfriend?

My ex and I broke up about 3 months ago. We have stayed friends, for the most part, and still text from time to time (haven't seen each other since the breakup). She broke up with me because her ex husband called her crying one day saying that he missed their family together. He's a loser that doesn't have a job and lives at home with his parents (he's 40 or 41) since the divorce and doesn't pay any child support. She said she needed time to think because her kids were involved (two girls, 9 and 6). After a few weeks, I just dropped her key back off with her since I didn't see a path forward at this point. If it takes you 3 weeks to figure shite out about an ex, im not at the top of your mind on it.

Now, fast forward a few months later, she keeps posting shite on Facebook about how God will send her a good man that will care about her and all this other girl power, ra ra bullshite. "Girl, wait for the man that will treat you right and care about you and your feelings" kind of stuff.

Should I be offended about this? I feel like all our friends in common have to think that I was the problem and that I treated her like shite when she posts things like this.

Sounds like he did you a favor. What kind of person not only marries but has kids with, and then returns to someone who can't support themselves?

1. Unfriend her on all social media
2. Stop talking about her
3. Find someone else to go out with

Doing anything else is wasting precious days of your life

You should post the OP on FB. That ought to clear everything up.

With social media someone is always “offended.” What you need to be is glad that you avoided what sounds like a person with a few issues.

Let it go.
Control what you have control of.
Simply ignore it.
It people reading her crap are your friends……they should know you and her comments don’t matter.

You sound fat or insecure… maybe both.

She did you a solid.

You haven’t emotionally disconnected from her though she put you in the friend zone.

Thank god for your unanswered prayer, delete any social media connections and ghost her. Move on and quit dwelling on imagined slights.

No, you shouldn't be offended. She's obviously talking about her ex and not you.

Were you the first person she dated after the marriage? Your post sounds like yes. So sounds to me like she blocked out the bad memories, remembered the good times, etc. I mean they do have two kids, and were a family. The brain does tricky things. Then they get back together, she remembers why it didn't work and here we are. But she can't come crying back to you, now can she. That's embarrassing to her to admit defeat to your face.

So no, don't be offended. Just move on, sucks though if you did like her.

No. You’re choosing to believe that this:
quote:

she keeps posting shite on Facebook about how God will send her a good man that will care about her and all this other girl power, ra ra bullshite. "Girl, wait for the man that will treat you right and care about you and your feelings" kind of stuff.

Has anything to do with you.

Also, if this is true:

Then why allow her to be at the top of yours?

Unfriend her and move on.

Cut that shite off. Absolutely no reason to still be friends. Stop simping and Move on.

Most likely she wanted to break up but didn’t want to put the blame on herself so used an ex husband as an excuse.

And about the women and Facebook stuff, it's no different than the first reply in this thread.

That instant dopamine hit you get from reading it and getting your validation is all she's doing it just a different venue. Facebook is more females, this place is more males so the OP is doing the same thing.

We all do it, to the haters to complain about it. In someway or another because it feels good when we are hurting sometimes.

I think you should reply to one of her friend's replies with a two paragraph rebuttal about how you won't name any names but some women can have a good man and not even know it because they keep living in the past. Use specific examples of stuff you used to do for her too. Blow that shite up.
