Well, my (ex) boyfriend decided he wanted to end our one year relationship a little over a month ago, still we agreed to continue as best friends, which I’m extremely thankful for! Ever since the breakup, we’ve been messaging each other on a daily basis, and we don’t talk any less now than we did while together, our communication pattern hasn’t changed, not at all. We still even text stuff like “good night”, and after my boyfriend took the initiative to do so, we’ve also been telling each other to sleep well every night. Well, here’s my question: Do you consider it any strange at all that we still do this even tho our chemistry is still really good, we get along very well? At first we only said “night”, but now we’re finally back to saying almost everything that we used to except the “I love you”part tho, obviously! A part of me tells me that it’s kind of weird (?) to tell a friend of the opposite gender, and especially your ex, to have a good nights sleep, but at the same time it really feels so natural to me… it kinda brings me some strongly needed comfort, and I do not want to lose this. Like, it means so much to me even if it’s just a short text… What are your honest opinions about this? I don’t know what to think, tbh… When I asked people on another forum, everyone just replied with negative comments about how strange of a behavior this is, they did definitely not support that we continue it…. But I’m not sure, I need some input from you guys, please! (And by the way, I’m sorry for any spelling mistakes, my native language is not English, haha!) In advance, thanks! :)
Maybe a stupid question, but… is it weird to send and receive night messages from an ex every single night?
