Is it normal to not want to see your ex?
Yep.Totally normal
Yes, it’s completely normal not to want to see your ex. You don’t owe them contact just because you used to be together.
A breakup can leave you needing space, whether it ended badly or was simply the right call. Seeing your ex might bring up hurt, awkwardness, or feelings you’d rather not revisit—and sometimes you just don’t want them in your life anymore. All of that is normal.
You can set a boundary without making it a big statement: keep your distance, skip optional get-togethers, or be polite but brief if you cross paths. If you share friends or responsibilities, you can aim for practical, civil contact without pretending you want to hang out.
