Should I Message Ex-Friend’s Partner After a Decade?
I write this post after receiving a fair amount of Facebook recommendations regarding someone who, while I wouldn’t call them a friend, I would say we were in between a friend and acquaintance.
The reason I want to contact them is I suppose it is mostly just out of curiosity and me seeing where they are in life now. My ex-friend was fairly abusive to them and a lot of others as well. Things blew up between everyone and it never really recovered.
I just always wondered what happened to some of these people. And now, one of them happens to be getting recommended to me on Facebook.
I did look at their profile and it seems they are in a better place. Last I heard of them, they seemed unsure as to what they wanted to do with their life. Now they have graphic designer listed on their profile. It’s just nice to see that they are in a better place.
I am unsure if this abusive partner is still with them now as they would come back and leave the relationship fairly regularly.
Again this is probably an intrusive thought and I probably won’t end up doing it.
I just picture it like a seeing someone you knew from childhood actually do better in their life and it’s a good feeling.
If I did contact them I would probably just ask how it’s going and ask about them being a graphic designer and how that career is going. Just nice small stuff is all. Like seeing where that kid you knew from down the block wound up in life.
What do you all think? Should I do it? Should I contact them person from long ago?
EDIT: I do want to clarify that I am currently unsure as to if they are still with my ex-friend as there was a lot of heavy accusations that they would vent and they are not friends on Facebook. But again, I don’t know is the bottom line on this.
