Why would my son's newly engaged ex-girlfriend randomly text him a photo of her wearing an engagement ring?

You think her fiancé knows she’s texting ex boyfriends?

+1.

What motivates your son to show you this nonsense?

You loner misanthropes estranged from your families can’t help but reveal yourselves. Millions of Americans love their parents, text and talk to them regularly about everything under the sun, confide in them, seek advice and wisdom from them.

Lol. I speak to my mom pretty much everyday. We have more interest things to discuss than some ex randomly sending me an engagement ring photo with no message. And I would hope that even if I did mention this, she'd have more interesting things to ponder about.

It is possible she sent to all her friends just like people post their engagement rings on Facebook. Still classless, but all OP's son had to do was delete her number.

Nobody accidentally sends a photo text to an ex, especially about an engagement. An ex from years ago should be the last thing on her mind.

She is certainly not the last thing on his and his mother's. Lol

To show him how good she's doing without him.

BS. You would totally tell your mom and your friends.

Probably a good reminder that he can do much better than someone texting an old boyfriend right after getting engaged. That one is not a keeper.

The best revenge is living well, not dwelling on past hurts.

He randomly got a photo text from her over the weekend with no caption, just her hand showing off her engagement ring. What motivates such a text from a 27 year old woman and what reaction is she looking for?

Spite.

If OP’s son took a photo of the engagement ring he just gave to his fiancée or the ring on the fiancée’s finger and sent it to the old ex-gf this entire forum would rip him to shreds. Absolutely nobody would say, oh it’s just an innocuous announcement blast.

This is a bizarre thing to do. If she was so happily engaged she wouldn't do this. She is saying you should have gotten me why you could and still pining for him.

It was a dig or
Ops son & her remain cordial and she’s sharing

He’s probably not insecure that she texted one exbf her happy news.

He should respond, “Yr open mouth is awaiting my harvest. Don’t spill a drop.”

It's possible she's engaged to RFK Jr

Oh no, your son is still single? How old is he? Do you think you’ll ever get grandchildren?!
