You mentioned that she has enough paramittas to understand the Dhamma. So, don’t hesitate and try to work things out in a way that makes both of you cordial. Then, tell her about the Dhamma and allow her to learn. Of course, that doesn’t mean you have to get back together with her. This kind of decision can only be made by you and her. The important thing here is sharing the Dhamma. If you had an attachment to her, it’s because your gati was very similar at one point. Even if you are no longer together, there is still a karmic bond that connects you in some way. You have karmic debts to each other. By giving her this opportunity, you will accumulate a large quantity of paramitas and kusalas, and your path to Nibbāna will be facilitated. If you think she’s open enough to listen, it would be a shame not to try! The gift of Dhamma surpasses all other gifts. You will give her the best thing she could hope to have. 😁
