My ex and I remained friends for five months after our breakup, but we crossed the couple line many, many times. He seemed so in love with me in person and would text me a lot. One day, another girl starts texting him, and he begins texting her all day and just ignores my texts or any requests to hang out. However, if he sees me in person, he would say how pretty I am, etc. coupley things. I was so hurt because I discovered these texts on his phone and decided to go no contact after confronting him. I'm just looking for others who have had similar encounters and how they got through it! Please help.

Why are you going through your ex phone? I have remains friends with a few of my exes only because we are truly over each other. Otherwise, I would not have. So you and this ex and you don't have to friends with an ex.

I was playing a game on his phone and I saw texts from her. It makes no sense as to how he can ignore me if another girl starts texting him! Then be all physically attached. I got sick of him then and just not contacted him. Maybe I can be friends with him but not now... at a much later time.

There are not many stories of ex's becoming friends. At least not lasting friends, it's best to go no contact and hinder the feelings you had, so they don't linger back into your life. Those feelings can do anything from ruining your future love life, to your social life.

Best thing to do is to never talk to them again, and move on.
