When he tries to be your friend.

Is anyone else's ex insistent on trying to be friends with them? My ex and I only split up 7 weeks ago and we're at the point where I still need to get a lot of my things from the house, but we are planning on filing for divorce for a whole list of reasons. After weeks of hatred and harassment from him online, we've finally managed to have one civil meet up and now he's trying to act like we're best friends. Is anyone else in this situation? It just hurts so much it was easier when we weren't talking.

The guy did nothing but treat me like ****, I left and he tried to play the victim. He's going around telling everybody how heartbroken he is but it only took him 5 days to kiss someone else, and he wants to chat all day like nothing's happened...help?

Re: When he tries to be your friend.

Yes, mine left me to go an an endless motorbiking adventure and phones me to tell me what a good time he’s having/sends me photos. When he’s back and sees me, he kisses me on the lips and holds my hand, but still goes back to his new home he’s purchased. It’s like a carnivore returning to his lair after killing my soul all over again :(

Re: When he tries to be your friend.

I’m new here. My husband left almost 3 weeks ago. The worst part of it (besides the fact he left me to pursue a relationship with his affair partner of 2.5 years) is that he is now so nice to me. It rips my heart out every time we have to get together for the kids. I’ve even told him I would have given anything for this kind of kindness the last few years.

I want a lot of space from him, but with the kids, you have to be an adult. It is so hard.
