SECOND UPDATE: AITA for leaving thanksgiving dinner without exploitation after seeing my ex there?
Hey everyone, I'm back again with another updaye. But first, Imma give them some names. Madison (ex bsf), Aiden (ex bf) and Mason (ex bsf's brother). Hopefully y'all don't get confused or mixed up by these three. Also, the reason why I couldn't update or post sooner was because I rlly didn't have anything to update on.
Ok soooo... In my last post, I said that I might have to talk to Mason to get answers but well, things didn't go as planned. Basically, his sister was the one to reach out first. Yeah, my ex bsf, the girl sveryone suspected was dating my ex. I'm not saying that I didn't suspect her dating him aswell but I can't say that I fully did either..) Madison unblocked me from everywhere (I think) and messaged me nesrly 5 days ago, asking if we could meet up and have a talk. If I'm being honest, when I first saw her message my heart skipped a beat and it took me a few moments to process/realize if it was really her. No because, yk that one feeling when someone you haven't heard from in months or maybe even years, suddenly text you out of the blue? Yeah, THAT feeling. I agreed because well, i REALLY wanted to know whether she and Aiden were dating or not. That thought was eating my brain.
Earlier today we met at a regular cafe. We sat awkwardly in front of each other for a few moments that felt like hours. and then she started initiating small talks with me, asking how I've been and if I'm doing okay (no honey I've been MISERABLE.). I didn't say much and got to the point. I told her to tell me the truth and not dare lie about it. didn't say anything at first but then said "Mmh, okay". I first asked her about aiden and why was he there despite her knowing how much I hated and resent him in the first place. She let out a huge sigh like she just lost a whole competition and then said that she "hoped" that we'll reconcile eventually and forget about the past. (No way..) I just nodded, looked her in the eyes and then said "Are you and Aiden dating?" she just stared at me. Like deep in my soul. I didn't know what to do so I asked again. She tried avoiding that question by looking away and staying silent. It didn't stop me though, i told her "if you don't answer me, consider this the last time you'll ever talk to me. Let alone see me." (I would've left either way).
Dear redditors... After some back and forth she admitted to it. They're dating. Continuing on, she looked at me and I could hearthe hesitation in her voice. She confirmed it, I asked for how long and she legit said a little over a year. ...Girl?.. No, I was for real shocked and speechless. I was like what the fuck? And on top of that, she just casually said it.. I decided to leave because I couldn't do it no more. I was disgusted and disappointed in her and I told her that. Her eyes started weiling up with tears and then she started begging me to hear her out first but I couldn't even look at her. Then, she started full on crying so I just left her there. Omw home, I blocked her and her brother on everything.
I know I didn't share why me and my ex broke up or what happened between us and I don't think that I'll ever will because for me, I want to keep it private and it's still traumatic. I might share some details about it in the future. Maybe, maybe not. But I reassure you that it was really really bad.
This may not be the update y'all hoped for but hopefully it is in the next one. If smth else happened, I'll keep you updated. One last thing, if I didn't answer some of y'all s comments, im either busy, sleeping or at work. Tysm for the support 🤍
Edit: Sorry everyone for the spelling mistakes and typos. Hopefully it won't happen again!
