It’s not over dramatic. I have already told my friends that they can choose to be friends with her if they choose. I took the mature option of keeping all people involved as friends on FB including my ex. My ex was the one who has been incredibly immature by sending me a unwarranted hate mail 6 months later.
And I can choose to be friends (OR NOT) with whoever I wish. And I choose not to be friends with whoever is mutual friends with my ex for the simple reason that I do not care to disclose intimate details about my life to people outside my close circle. What is so unreasonable or overdramatic about that?
I choose not to have that common link to my ex since I don’t want my news feed coming into hers or her news feed coming into mine through common friends…especially moving forward when I meet someone new.
I don’t believe my ex is a good person…she is very manipulative and a liar. I don’t want to be friends with anyone who thinks such a person’s friendship is that important at the cost of making me – someone who has been a very close friend to them for over a decade – uncomfortable!!!
In addition my ex has demonstrated that she is a bit irrational and crazy. I don’t really want to have a link to that even if that link is a passive link through a friend.
