My ex recently sent me a forward. A blanket email..just a chain letter kind of thing.
We ended our relationship and all ties at least 6months ago. It was a volitile break up. We swore never to contact eachother again. The police were even involved.
Now 6 months later I get a forward blanket email. I am still in his address book!! Do you think he is testing the waters. I have not received any emails from him until now.
My current BF deleted the email because he thinks he is trying to break the ice.
Well, don't even spend the time or breath analyzing it if you are happy with another BF!
Sounds like he is just curious as to what you're up to you.. I would just ignore it(and anything else he sends), for the sake of yourself and your new bf.
I'm speaking from experience on this. He's testing the waters. I recently did this with an ex. I always felt bad for the way things ended up and it was my way of trying to reach out and to spark some kind of response.
I agree with everyone and also I am curious as to why you even bothered to post about this. I am not judging you AT ALL. I just hope that if you were able to escape a relationship that had to get the police involved during the break up that you aren't considering going back or even contacting him. Also make sure you are happy in the relationship you are in. Otherwise if you were just naturally curious then no harm done. Hang in there.
We were together for about a year. He was my best friend. He questioned his sexuality during our relationship and met a guy for sex behind my back. He maintained nothing happened and he realized he was straight.
After that I did not look at him as my best friend anymore. The trust was gone. He resented me for not trusting him and I resented him for not being trustworthy. I told him I would trust him if he made a promise to me in the symbal of a ring. I really thought a promise ring would have made me feel he was serious about me.
I did receive my promise ring. After that he did many things that questioned my trust. Like dissappearing every Friday night without so much as a phone call..claiming he fell asleep. I felt the ring was purchased to get me off his back so to speak. Not a promise at all!
When we broke up he wanted the ring back. I said no so he tried to blackmail me with the sexy pctures I once gave to him. After that went down we had no contact at all for 6months. Now the blanket email shows up.

Rec'd "Spam" sent to me from your address book. Did you forget to take me out of your address book or was there another reason for this?
I dislike chain letters so please don't send them.

it is to bad you cannot see past the past...i only sent the email for its messege content, it made me smile, not the superstitious aspect. And you said i was the angry one...plz take care...and good luck with everything...
ME> ok so what your saying is you see "past" the "past"...and the blanket email was your way to break the ice and contact me?
I am a little confused by this considering how volatile the break up was. Why now? Any particular reason?
HIM> There is no reason other then to send you a piece of literature that may bring you a smile at the the beginning or end of your day... i know how much a smile can brighten ones hectic day... so please don't flatter yourself, i do not want to converse with you, it was "spam" remember, no place for a reply if i remember correctly?...and you are the reason for such a " volatile break up" as you described it...once again, plz take care and good luck with everything...
i guess i just did not know the proper way to react to the email.
i guess i just did not know the proper way to react to the email. I heard the advice "not too respond to him" and should have listened! ... glutin for punishment here
I sent him his quotes..."There is no reason other then to send you a piece of literature that may bring you a smile at the the beginning or end of your day...i know how much a smile can brighten ones hectic day"
"don't flatter yourself" "you are the reason for such a " volatile break up" "i do not want to converse with you"
then I said >
part of you wants to make me smile and the other part still wants to attack me.
Sheesh, Yeah, you take care and good luck with everything as well.
i am not the one who lashed out vindictively first kittn, in fact i sent you an email to give you smile, one you were obviously not ready to receive from me. You labeled it spam and sent me notification to cease and desist from sending you such mail and questioned my motives, my reply only explained it was not superstitious in nature, and i felt if you needed to question my motives you were not excepting of such tokens from your past, so i assumed you were still angry...not being able to see past the past...a statement you disregarded and then thoughtfully reminded me of how bad it was losing you, "volatile" as you described it. My last email was my only retaliation to your cold remarks...so plz hun don't point the finger...it hurt for both of us, i cannot even begin to explain the excruciating pain i went through pulling you back through the depths of my heart...no rebound...just time...now please, last and for all my love, please take care and good luck with all your hopes and dreams...
