I have been separated for a year now and only a handful of friends know about it. I also don’t have close family where I live.

I am thinking of reach out to my ex. We haven’t spoke in years now, that I was married we kept our distance but - she was previously divorced too and we become really good friends.

I am unable to find a reason of why I should tell her but then again I also feel the need to coz she is a friend first and then also someone who would (I hope so) care.
