Is this silly?
My BFF just "friended" my stbxh's girlfriend on Facebook.
It feels silly to be upset about it, but somehow I am....
Re: Is this silly?
She kind of knows her. They live in the same area and we all went to the same high school, but she (the GF) is years younger than us (so we were not at school at the same time).
They are not friends/do not hang out.
I do not know WHY she would have friended her, really... I'm going to ask her, but wasn't sure if I was out of line for being surprised/upset by it.
No, I would be annoyed if my BFF was FB friends with my XH or STBXH's GF. Especially if she was the OW--was she?
Wow, that's a lot of acronyms!
The GF isn't the OW--though she practically could have been since he started dating her after we'd only been separated three months, and has since moved in with her (currently separated 8 months).
It actually doesn't even bother me that she's FB friends with my STBXH because they were FB friends previously, but the recent "friending" of the GF just happened, and that's what's bothersome to me.
And really, I don't even have anything against the GF, I feel bad that she has to deal with my STBXH's issues (oh, he has plenty) and she's so young and naive.
Blah....
If she's not friends with her.. (altho if she's YOUR BFF, how could she be??) but there is no reason unless she was trying to be nosey?? I'd still be pi$$ed regardless.
"You know you're a Nestie when...you can read all of these acronyms like it's just a regular language!"
And yah...I guess I'd be annoyed by it...I'd find out WHY she did that if she's your BFF. Unless she wants the "gossip" but then really, it's probably best to just not know about it.
My BFF and I have other close "real life" friends (lol) that are also FB friends with the GF... so we've been getting "the gossip" this whole time already....
So her friending the GF seems entirely unnecessary in my opinion.
this is a good point, and it's going to get old fast. (if you'd even want to see it in the first place)
Right or wrong, you're definitely not alone, I think concensus is that this would pi$$ most of us off.
Haha!
But to answer your question, yes, I would be surprised. Just talk to her about it and ask her.

How is that exactly? She either was or she wasn't the OW, there is no "practically". Was he sleeping with her when you were married? No? Then she's not the OW. I think it's kind of crappy that your BFF would friend this woman, but I also think that you sound a little bitter and jealous here.
