writes: My ex and I broke up about a few months back. It has been hard as our ending was less than perfect but in that year I feel I have grown and moved on. I've dated other guys and feel like I am ready for a new long term relationship.The issue is that my ex moved far away and to keep in contact with his mates, he will send a group email letting them know what he is up to. This is fine but I feel uncomfortable that he includes me on this email. I'm not really interested in what is up to, especially when he talks about his new girlfriend, who he left me for.I have considered blocking his emails but that is really petty and I have considered writing to him and telling him I'm not interested in what he has to say but I don't want to sound like a jealous, crazy ex girlfriend.I have deleted most of them without even reading them but when they pop up in my outlook inbox, I can't help see what is in the first one or two paragraphs. Receiving them makes me feel very uncomfortable and brings up old feelings of anger and hurt that he left me with. I feel that he is being inconsiderate just lumping me in with a group of work and uni friends when we were together for so long and our parting was not pleasant. I would never send out a group email casually chatting about a new boyfriend and include him in the recipients.Am I being silly or do you think that he is being inconsiderate? Should I say something and if so, how do I say it without sounding like i'm jealous or angry or have not gotten over him. I don't want him to feel like he is still getting to me when I have tried so hard to move on. Advice much appreciated - i really respect the opinions you agony aunts and uncles provide. It is wonderful.xoxoxox

If it hurts you that much,i would send him an email back saying that you are happy for him but you have moved on and the time you had with him was special but you dont feel the need to stay in contact anymore.That then is short,sweet and simple.
