A Question about Facebook

hi all. i recently got discarded by a long-term narcissistic partner. i blocked them on everything, so they have no way to hoover. or so i thought.

i’ve recently started using facebook again. lately i’ve just been reposting still images (quotes, sunsets, etc.) to my story, and i noticed a relative of his saw my most recent one. we aren’t friends. and i’ve never had a non-friend’s story suggested to me before.

my question is this: does that for sure mean she was snooping on my profile? i’m worried this is the start of an attempt at contact or another mind game. or is it possible that my story popped up in her feed despite not being friends…? i’ve never even looked at her profile.

any help is much appreciated!

At the end of my rope.

I don’t know what to do anymore. It feels like every time things start to be okay, something happens and completely fucks up my life. I’m a graduate student pursuing a master’s. I’m attending my program on an assistantship, so paying nothing for school. (Thank fuck.) But that also means I have very little time to work. So in order to make ends BARELY meet, I’m working 60-70 hours a week, including my studies. It’s summer now, so I picked up a second job to maintain the 60-hour work week. Because I had to go part time at my main job to go back to school, I lost my health insurance and had to make my parents’ my primary again. I just found out an hour ago that it doesn’t cover therapy, which means I can no longer afford to go. I also got an unexpected $150 bill for my most recent session, which for me is a pretty hard hit. I barely make enough to save money at the end of the month and the bills just keep coming. I have ADHD, but I’m medicated and I bust my ass every day trying to stay ahead of it. Keeping multiple planners, a written monthly budget, various helpful apps, etc. I’m so tired. No matter how hard I work (I’m talking 12+ hour shifts some days) I can never get ahead. I’m really at my breaking point. Any advice or kind words would be so appreciated.
