[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First of all-as others have said, it’s very weird that your son told you about this. No matter how close you are this is a weird thing to share.

It could be any one of the reasons people have mentioned. But I think the more likely reason is that his ex is still a little salty and wanted to send it as sort of a “my life is good, i’m getting married and things really worked out after we broke up.” Regardless of the reason(s) she sent it-the best response from your son is to say “Congrats, so happy for you” or some very close variation of that. it’s the mature thing to do regardless of how he actually feels about it. He could also ignore but I think responding is better only because (even if in his mind he is saying it with sarcasm) he is going to be looked at as someone who responded with class. [/quote]

i disagree that it is wierd the son to share it.  what's wrong with "hey Mom, I got an odd text last night from my ex girlfriend Tiffany.  she texted me a photo of a hand with an engagement ring, which I assume means she got engaged. I'm happy for her."

I think that the girl's text itself is wierd, and the Mom getting upset and coming here to crowdsource is also wierd - but the son mentioning it to his Mom is actually the one part that is NOT so strange.[/quote]
