    Relationship
    My ex left me about 3 months ago after a 3 year relationship we have known each other for 5 years. He left me saying that he doesn't have any feelings for me anymore and the love feelings for me is gone right after the break up he moved in with his friends. I've been NO contact for 3 months. I am really close with his family and so is he with mine. He texted me on the day that would've been our anniversary and asked how I was... He then said I shouldn't think anything weird about him texting me and that he felt bad about the way we split up. I ignored the texts (When I sat down and started thinking I realized that I didn't have anything to say to him anyway.) His friend living with him then texted me and asked if I was back in the country I ignored that to. When I came back from oversees my brother said that he visited him... My heart shaked I felt like I couldn't trust my brother anymore and with I shaking voice I replied "Okay as long as you guys don't talk about me." Now my ex is posting photos of him and my brother on Facebook of when we were on vacation together. I don't have him on FB but with him tagging my brother I can see it all. And I feel like he knows I can see it. Is he trying to get a reaction out of me? I have so many mixed emotions I feel like I am going to explode. I am the one suffering and hurting I am so lonely and he is perfectly fine with all his friends and...

    I would say keep on doing what you're doing.

    Ignore the texts, don't get involved in your ex's relationship with your brother (it will create drama), and do yourself a favour and stop looking at the pictures of happier times.

    Maybe your ex is trying to maintain some sort of friendship with you, so that he doesn't lose his friendship with your brother and family. Unfortunately you can't dictate how any of those relationships will go.

    It must be hard, knowing that he is still in the picture, and a little too close for comfort. Three months is really just beginning to heal from the relationship and it's like rubbing salt in the wounds.

    Stay strong. Far better to get past these hurdles to a point where it won't matter what he does, rather than to take a chance and let him in again. You would only find yourself starting all over again in getting over him.

    I agree with Jake. Also, if you actually go to your ex's page and hit block even by him tagging photos to your brother you should not be able to see them on your brothers page.

    Stop looking at the pictures. His relationship with your brother has nothing to do with you. Continue with your healing.
