    Hi all,

    I have completed my nursing degree, I have completed with good marks and have a job after 3 years of hard work, I posted that I have completed and done well on my social networking page, and have recieved a number of congratulations, however my ex has not commented or sent me a message to congratulate me when many friends and previous ex's have done, I know he has seen it, but I just wonder why would he not want to at least wish me well?? Maybe I am being over sensitive but some level of niceity and appreciation would be nice espeacially as he known how much this means to me!

    Maybe he just doesn't want to open back up the door of communication....doesn't want to give you false hope. Or maybe he's jealous of your accomplishments and chooses to ignore your posts about your success.

    He's your ex. I wouldn't give it much thought. Don't let anything put a damper on your happiness.

    I have no hope for anything with him, except maybe being the gentleman that I believed he was, with him speaking to all of his exes, but maybe he doesn't realise I don't have that hope, to me there is always being pleased for someone when they achieve something espeacially when I know that it means alot and has taken effort!!! maybe he isn't the man I thought he was.....

    You know sometimes guys are silly. Maybe, he thinks that if he send you a message, he will be weak.

    Anyway, enjoy your life and focus in your career. He is part of your past. Now the most important thing for you is your future

    Exes are exes for a reason.

    Exactly Sourpuss

    It doesn't mean he's not a gentleman...

    As you said, sweet that is what you do, that is how you see people should be.

    But, some, leave past in the past, I would bet that he has read it, smiled and said good for her, to himself..

    Remember, we can't change people to be what we want them to be..

    I'd go with the knowing that if he as a good character, that is what he would have done, you don't need to hear it from her, or read it, know that he thought it...

    I agree with both Mods.

    Once someone is an ex, anything you do or he does, is not either's business - be it good or bad. If you parted in good terms, which is rare, but possible, I'd see why you'd feel hurt about him ignoring your accomplishments, but still, expecting for someone from your past to share with your present?! I don't know. I think it's not advisable if you are to move on.
