Haha... yeah friends can definitely keep the sting coming for a little while. Especially if they know or know of the ex and keep bringing them up, whether it be on purpose or not. Sounds like you're taking care of business the right way though.dang. pick me upper. I am almost a month after trying to reconcile our relationship after a break up in novemeber. We tried for 2 months to see if we can be in a relationship, didn't work out for her so i said it's time for me to move on, i won't call you and please don't bother calling me. I was doing amazing until i got a minor set back from a mutual friend but i am on the ropes again and starting to feel better. If it wasn't for NC i would be doomed but this is the best way! She asks about me to my friends but i tell them don't bother telling me anything because i never ask about her to any of you ever. Sometimes things slip out of their mouth but its all good. As long as she is happy with her life i can move on with mine and find happiness through my own means. Don't kill yourself over someone who doesn't want to be a part of your life, if they wanted to be they would be right there beside you. In time there is someone who will come along no doubt about it, move on get over your ex so you can give your all to that person without comparing what you had. NC all the way!
