My exboyfriends friend emailed me after our break up. Should I reply or ignore? *details*?

we broke up and his friend just sent me a message saying he noticed im single now and asked how my ex is doing.. hes never talked to me before through email. im pretty much done with my ex and dont care to keep any contact. should i respond? as a friend or straight to the point of his questions? or not at all?








my ex and i were together for 4 years. and this guy is an old good friend of my exs from like middle school. i really didn't think he was interested. and i have zero interest in him. at all! It's been about 1 1/2 month since the break up and im over it. i dont want to talk to my ex really ever. i just thought i shouldn't be such a ';B'; to his friend when he didnt do anything wrong since we have hung out in a group from time to time. but, without my ex, i doubt i would really ever talk to him at all. i never considered him ';my'; friend but ';his';. and i dont even care to try to use this guy to get back at my ex.





So my question is IF i respond, should i be cool and ask how he is. or just jump straight to the point and answer whatever questions he asked me. or should i just not even respond.My exboyfriends friend emailed me after our break up. Should I reply or ignore? *details*?
It sounds like the 'friend' is either sounding you out as a romantic prospect, OR sounding you out on behalf of your Ex. The ';I hear you're single'; is meant to draw an answer.


I suspect being kind is a big deal to you. (or ya wouldn't be asking us for advice) So, I'd give him a casual generic answer like: ';Doing o.k. I don't talk to him much anymore';


IGNORE the ';I hear you're single';. Play it off as the friend's unstated pretext to asking, rather than an attempt to draw you out. My exboyfriends friend emailed me after our break up. Should I reply or ignore? *details*?
Tell him that you have no romantic interest in dating him. If he would like to be a friend, then maybe you could well come that. No doubt he probably has some feelings for you.If you don't respond, he will ge the message anyway.
I think your ex bf put his buddy up to this to get info on how you're doing. Just reply politely, but if he starts asking more detailed questions cut him short and tell him not to bother you.
Ignore it.





he's your ex.





Let it go. He was never going to treat you as well as you should be treated anyway.
if u have no interest i would send him an email and tell him that uur not
If you feel he was never really your friend and you never really had any interest in him; why would you now?





It really just depends on you. I'd ask myself: ';Why would I talk to him now? Do I want to be around my ex in the near future for any reason? Do I want to know anything about my ex? Do I care about his friend? Why should I pay any respect to his friend now just because I'm no longer with my ex?';





You decide what it is you want to face in the future because a lot can happy by simply clicking ';R e p l y';...





Good luck!
