I met “Stella” in the first month after I had left my ex-husband. She’s a fantastic friend and I don’t know what I would’ve done without her.
I’ve only spoken to my ex three times since filing for divorce, the last time was 2 months ago when he informed me, he would be in the city soon and he wanted to discuss the divorce in person with me to see if we could find a way to work together to reach an agreement. Our divorce has been dragging for 2 years so I agreed.
I was venting to Stella about him because he essentially sent me a text which said he expected to see me at x place at y time.
Now, Stella knows a lot about my ex and knows that he comes from a family of businessmen and that he is well-connected because of it. Stella has her own small business which she wants to grow. She asked me if I would be willing to introduce her to my ex because she wants to expand her network and is hoping he could connect her to a mentor. My immediate reaction was to say no but I ended up telling her I had to see what type of mood he’s in when he gets here, and I’d let her know.
My ex has been here for a week and I’ve seen him twice. Both times he was in a very good mood. Stella asked me again if I would be willing to introduce her to him and I still feel hesitant. This is going to sound extremely childish, but all of my old friends left me in favor of my ex, and I don’t want to share Stella with him. But that’s probably a selfish view, right? He could help Stella achieve her goals and I feel like I’m being a bad friend for standing in the way of that.
My ex is coming to my place in 2 days, this would be the perfect opportunity to introduce the two of them. So, I need help deciding what to do.
TL;DR – My friend wants me to introduce her to my ex-husband as he has the experience and business connections which could be helpful for her. I am hesitating because I don’t want him to take another friend from me but I also know he could be extremely helpful to her.
