Why didn't he tell his friends he had broken up with me?

Question - (29 May 2017) 4 Answers - (Newest, 31 May 2017)
A female United States age 41-50, anonymous writes:

The man I had been seeing for 14 months and I had an argument....almost. I asked him how he felt about me because I needed to know in order to decide where to take my life. Eight months ago he was gung ho about "US" and then he turned cold. He told me he wasn't going to talk about feelings, and has been silent to me for two months now. I figured after two weeks of not responding to my call and texts that he ghosted me and I have been going through the process of grieving the ending of the relationship. Last night one of his two best friends, whom I know and who knows we were seeing each other, (we hung out together at time) emails me and wants to know why I'm not on Facebook anymore (he thinks I left because Facebook pissed me off!) or been around. I told him I was busy on a project. So, obviously my ex, who was so excited about me meeting and having his friends know we were together, has not told anyone we are broke up. And we are. Why would he ghost me and then not tell his friends we broke up?

aunt honesty agony auntWhy would it matter to you? He may have lots off reasons why he hasn't disgust it with friends, it could also be that his friend still wants to keep in contact with you and he knows you are broken up.

I think the friend knows you two are broken up and he just called to check on you and see how you're doing... kinda as in a "I know guys are no longer together but that doesn't mean we can't still be friends" way.

That's what I do when my friends break up with their significant other and I think the person is too awesome to let go! (If they don't mind of course!)

I agree with N91. From what you post, it doesn't necessarily imply that the friend who emailed you isn't aware that you've broken up with your ex - he just didn't mention it.

N91 agony auntI don't think that necessarily means he didn't tell you that you broke up.

He may still want to speak to you regardless of whether you're together with his friend or not. I've seen many stories on this website of people who stay in touch with their exes friends and families because they got on well together.

The main question is why are you concerned about it? You and your ex are over. Concentrate on moving past that rather than worrying about Facebook issues.
