I think I made a mistake, I feel stupid?

Question

My ex-girlfriend wants to be friends and keeps sending me tagged friend requests. I sent her a long email telling her why we can't be friends. I said things like "why would i wanna be friends with someone who ditched me?" and "its painful to be just friends with someone I like" etc.

Do you think i made a mistake emailing her about why we can't be friends, should I of just ignored her?

Answer 1

Don't feel stupid. It is very hard to figure people out...why they do the things they do.

I think in writing her a long email you were being very honest and truthful. She may not appreciate who you are.

I think it would be a good idea to remain friendly, but not pursue her anymore.

Your pain will lessen in time, meanwhile, get involved in activities, be around other people. Another girl will come along...maybe someone who is more sincere...someone more like you.

Answer 2

To me, I think the wrong thing would be to ignore her. Unless you don't like her for some good reason, then yeah go ahead. But I think you made the right choice in telling her how you feel.

Answer 3

A one time email is fine, just ignore her from now on, she is just on a power trip trying to see if she can drag you along.

Answer 4

Answer 5

We all make mistakes.

When you stop feeling hurt, you may find that you can be friends with her. You weren't ditched -- she freed you to find someone who will make you happy.

Answer 6

There is nothing wrong to tell how you feel.
