For the last 5 years I've been in touch with one of my ex boyfriends Mom's. Even after our breakup (which was my decision), she kept in touch with me. It was always just "hi, how are you" emails.
For the last 4 years I've been with my husband, married for 2. My ex boyfriend got married last october and the last email I received from his Mom was in December, promising to send me pics from their wedding. It never happened. I'm fine with it...I do miss emailing her but I won't write because I don't want to bother her. Any thoughts on what happened?

Actually, she talked to her son and he was fine with her emailing me.

I have several different thoughts on this. First, maybe the wedding pics turned out bad and his mom was embarrassed to send them. Or maybe the wife found out his mom was writing and put a stop to it. The fact that he is OK with his mom continuing to write to you says clearly that he still cares about you very much. Don't take it personal....but do let it go. It's time.

I don't think there is anything wrong with being friends with your ex boyfriends Mom. I would email her and say hey I haven't heard from you in a while just want to make sure everything is ok. She may be busy or going through something and is unable to email you right now. Don't take her not writing you personal.

It sounds like you and your exboyfriend's mom shared a nice bond. I can see why you have concern that she hasn't been writing you. It does sound odd but maybe she feels awkward about it now that her son is married to another woman, and the fact that you're married.
Let it go and move on, wish them well in your thoughts as I'm sure they do the same for you. It's OK.

Probably that the new wife was jealous.
I would email her around her birthday and/or holidays. See if she responds.
If she doesn't respond, don't worry too much. Some friendships last a lifetime, others are only there for a time in our lives.

If your hubby is fine with the light hearted emails from your ex's mom, then continue. But, it is odd.

On a friendship side of things there's nothing wrong with communicating.

I would have cut ties with my sons ex because I would feel that I was taking away from the woman that he chose to be his wife. Probably would make her very uncomfortable.

1) your married
2) you have a new life
3) it your ex bf mother

6) does your husben even know that you kepped in touch with your ex bf mother

Maybe the new wife was uncomfortable with her e-mailing you? I'd just leave it.
