My ex is asking his mom how I am doing, why wouldn’t he ask me directly?

He knows I and his mom stayed on friendly terms and still talk occasionally.

Today his mom messaged me that my ex said I was just too good for him. What the hell. I am anything but good.

And then she said he asked her how I am. If he really wanted to know he could ask me directly.

Is he acting like he is interested how I am to look like a good person in his parents eyes?

Because last time I talked with him in January, he told me he is in a new relationship and to forget him because we are never getting back together. So, why pretend as if he cares.

“S, you are different, you have your own light! In the words of H’s father: S has a noble temperament! You are not born to fall into the mortal world! I am happy to know you and would be blessed to have a daughter-in-law like yours.” - That’s the last message I received from his mom, after I wished his son all the best.

S - my name
H - my ex’s name

I feel happy they think so, that’s all, I am no longer willing to worry about him.
