Why i had to let go of my ex's friend

Author

Hello! currently day 74 of no contact and I did something big.
The guy that likes me I have said in previous post is my exs ex friend and I was with him when we broke up in December of 2025. I talked to him in march and dated him me and my ex went back into contact in may and talked. I told him I was with him and he of course got upset I heard different things my ex saying his friend was calling me ugly and his friend saying that my ex said this. I decided to cut ties with my exs ex friend. I felt bad about it because I hate blocking people but he got the message and blocked my tiktok when I blocked his Instagram. Throughout the summer I left messages talking about how I couldnt be a good partner to him and its best I work on myself but I havent had the courage to actually leave until now. Especially since I felt talking to him brought me comfort. I knew I had to go out of my comfort zone and just be my myself for a couple months. When I blocked him I felt sad I thought does he think im being mean and cruel but I feel like even though its hard for me im not going to be stressing about anything.

when you say talking to him brought you comfort, was it HIM you missed, or was it having someone there while you were trying to get over your ex?

i used to worry way more about whether she thought i was cruel than whether i was protecting myself. the day i stopped making every choice around someone else's opinion, i finally started breathing again.

this actually took guts. i've blocked people i cared about because i knew i was keeping him around for comfort, and i cried after i did it. the guilt faded, but the peace stayed
