Was it a good idea to use my ex for support when my dad died.

Me and My Ex haven’t end in Bad terms. So also reason why I reached out. So don’t get why he unfriended me off Facebook.

My Dad was found dead yesterday after having a heart attack at work. I reached out to my ex for support( I wanted some support like I wanted him to tell me it was ok and just comfort me). As he’s aware of my background. We broke up a month ago. He supported me and we shared few messages. His last one made me emotional as he said I wish you well in life. Be strong and keep your head up and I’m sorry. That made me aware that I’ve lost him and lost my dad. It hurts that he didn’t stay for long during this. I know stuff like this makes him uncomfortable, as he doesn’t know how to support people.

I didn’t have good relationship with my dad when I was young he was absent and estranged. Him and my mother had a toxic relationship. I stopped reaching out for my own health reasons when I got age 16. I was brought into foster care with my siblings at age 4. This was due to him and my mothers toxic abusive relationship. Another reason why I reached out to my ex as he knew about this.

Honestly I’m over my ex. I only wanted support, which is why I reached out. I noticed he unfriended me off Facebook. I was thinking to myself, did he think i wanted to get back with him? But why would I use my dad death as a way to get him back. Now I realised he wasn’t worth texting for support.

Just can’t believe he thinks like that. So please no negative stuff. Just would want to know your opinion and have support.

Honestly felt like I wasted my time on someone who assumed I wanted him back and was using my dads death as a way to get back. I would never do that.
