After months of breaking up with my ex, I can’t shake the way she made me feel—humiliated, sleepless, and emotionally drained. Despite everything, I still find myself worrying about her. I care about what she does, how she behaves, and whether she’s going through something.

Recently, I heard that her parents found out she smokes. Oddly enough, they didn’t seem to react much, and she wasn’t surprised by their lack of concern. But now, I haven’t seen her active in our group chat for almost a day, which is unusual. She’s still part of our friend group, so her absence has me overthinking—wondering if something might be wrong.

Do you think I’m overreacting? Am I caring too much about someone who hurt me? Is this even worth my energy anymore? I’d really appreciate some advice.
