November 2013 I was really hurt and heartbroken when the girl I was in an LTR with for 2 years cheated on me. She met up with another guy that I was suspicious about, an old fling, and hid it from me. That same day she was disrespectful so after a fight I ended it.
She tried getting me back a few days later, I still loved her but refused. I had already slept with 2 other girls at the time
I had nothing at that point, a freshman at college but during the December holidays I got a job as a courier delivery man and with the money from that I was able to start a Media company which quickly became relatively successful here in East Rand, South Africa. The breakup really motivated me to become better than the guy that I was, make more money than the guy I was and improve my life in general.
During the course of 2014 she has been initiating convos on SPAM which I ended as quick as I could. When I threw myself a 20th birthday party in June invited her, she stayed for 2 hours and left when my new girl arrived.
Last weekend was her birthday and she had a barbaque and invited me, I went to say hi and left. So today she sends me messages saying she would like me to hire her so she can learn about Photography since she wants to take it as a hobby and maybe work for us (Photography is one of the main services we offer.)
A part of me wants to agree and be the bigger man but another part wants to tell her to fuck off and go get a job from the guy she was fucking while we were dating.
Which makes more sense? I still despise her to some degree.
This doesn't have to do with "being the bigger man". Having her around is going to mess with your business desicions. Period. You have a good thing going for you and you don't need to introduce any kind of toxicity.
IMO, if you still really have negativity, or feelings of any kind for her, it's best to cut the chain and stop attending her birthdays etc. Nothing good can come of it.
But no way in hell would I offer her a job. The last thing you'd want is rumors that you're playing favoritism or that she just got the job because you used to bang her, or to let her think she still has influence over you.
