Ex text to say she seeing someone else

LegacyUser

Ok so myself and my ex broke up(she finished it) about 8 months ago after 4.5 years together.

There was a bit of contact over them months sorting certain stuff out but for the last 2 months there was nothing.

Fast forward to yesterday when I was printing off tickets for a concert which is on today. I soon realised that i wasn't able to print them as it was my ex who had booked them(I paid for them though) so I couldn't access tickets.

I gave her a buzz to explain the situation, she said she would print tickets but her tone over the few calls sorting things was very narky and I reckon she was a bit bitter that I might be going with a date or something like that. She was unnecessarily short on the calls and just acted a bit immature about it.

Then today I get a text saying that she wants to let me know that she is now seeing someone else and she wanted me to hear it from her and not someone else.

That's ok with me, none of my business. But to me the text just smacked of bitterness. That she got it into her head that I was going to the concert with a date and she just had to get a dig in. If she was bothered that I knew she could have just text before.

What do you guys think?

Thanks.

Ignore the silly cow. She thinks you're hooking up with someone else, so she thought she'd get her beats in first. I doubt she's even seeing someone, from the tone she apparently used with you. If she really was seeing someone, then she might not be so bothered.

Just get on with enjoying life and leave her to it.

If you're not bothered I don't see how it matters whether shes with someone or whether she's bitter. Maybe she doesn't want to hear from you again and it annoyed her that you texted for the tickets.

You are making a lot of assumptions. You don't know what she was thinking. And if its none of your business why do you care that she text to say she had a boyfriend. You're getting on with your life so forget about it.

Just wondering if you gave any consideration to the idea that she was hoping you'd forgotten about the tickets and had plans for them herself?!

One of those emo-type texts you send to give you your own sense of closure. Just ignore it, I'm sure it gave her a brief moment of angsty respite.

Yup, I suspect she had planned on using the tickets and was miffed that you'd remembered them after such a long time. I also wouldn't be surprised if you saw her at the concert with a date which is possibly why she mentioned that whole "seeing someone else" thing.

Either way, it's no skin off your nose so don't worry about it.

Another explanation would be that her new bloke would be with her when you went to collect the tickets, and she felt awkward about it. You were with her for 4.5 years, don't be too quick to think the worst of her. In either case, it doesn't really matter, does it?

Exactly this.

I wouldn't really be giving this too much thought if I were you. If you're ready to move on then do so and don't occupy yourself/waste time with speculation as to what she's up to/who she's seeing/why she sent it...
