This seems to be the NT thing to do though.
Why?
I don't think the statistics probably vary much, out of the people I've seen and dealt with.
I don't know why but I'll take an educated guess at it from my experience. The average NT will have a wide network of friends. These "friends" are constantly analyzing each others social status and accomplishments to apply a rank. When a NT is an inferior ranked position compared to others in their social group they feel jealousy and two options present themselves. (1) The NT can work to better their status or (2) Bring their "friend" down by devaluing them with negative criticism or nasty lies. They constantly strive for social superiority, like they have a need for it or something.
Again, another generalization but that's my conclusion from what I have picked up over the years. So unless you have the social stamina for this, think twice before being friends with your ex on social media.
