SadHatter Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 I'm posting this really more because I'd just like an explanation as to why my ex-gf is acting like she is because it is getting to the stage where I do not understand women AT ALL!! In a nutshell, together 2.5 years, we broke up over a year ago (she finished with me), she now has another boyfriend of a few months and I am still single (by my own choice, just wanted some time to myself). I don't really talk to her anymore, but the last time I did speak to her, a few months ago, she told me she'd like me to let her know when my sister had a baby as she was pregnant. I text her two days ago to let her know my sis had the baby and she replied and said congratulations to you all etc. and asked if it was a boy or a girl. It sparked a few texts, just how are you, what have you been doing, the usual innocent catch-up after a few months of not talking. I asked her how her trip to Australia was and she didn't reply... so the next day I text her, "Are you ignoring me now?!" and she ignored that and then today I text her, "Why were you talking to me fine and now you're ingoring me? There's nothing weird about catching up after 8 months of not talking, its only being friendly, at least tell me why you're not even replying now, I haven't said anything wrong, you're being a bit weird." And she ignored that too. Bit annoyed at myself for getting angry and texting her about it, should just have acted like I didn't care, but there you go, it just annoys me. I WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND WOMEN!! Ladies - why has she suddenly started ignoring me, having gone from a totally normal few texts to not replying, when nothing remotely weird was said at all apart from, "how was your trip to australia"?!
LisaUk Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 Really don't know! I'm a women and I tell you I'd be mad as hell as well. Will have to give this one some thought!
Author SadHatter Posted June 18, 2009 Author Posted June 18, 2009 Thanks Lisa It just really confuses me, nothing weird was said that would scare her off, just polite chit-chat, then suddenly she ignores me like I'm a piece of trash. I'd be lying if I said it didn't hurt me after 2.5 years together that she cannot even be decent... just sooooooo weird, I don't get it. Just went from a normal few texts conversation to totally and utterly ignoring all my texts for no reason
Kamille Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 maybe she dropped her phone near the Great Barrier Reef and now it blitzes out on any text about Australia? Seriously, there's no way to know why she isn't replying. It could be something as ridiculous as her phone ran out of battery to something also as ridiculous as she doesn't want to get into too much details about her life with you. Either way, it doesn't matter. She is no longer a central part of your life. It would have been nice if you two could have maintained friendly contact, but some exes simply aren't cut out for it. Plus, your reaction to her not answering one text suggests you're not ready for contact any way. Do you expect your friends to answer all your texts as soon as they get them? Do you get mad and feel they're treating you "like trash" when they don't?
Author SadHatter Posted June 18, 2009 Author Posted June 18, 2009 if a mate ignored my texts for two days i'd be peeved, yes! wouldn't anyone?
Kamille Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 if a mate ignored my texts for two days i'd be peeved, yes! wouldn't anyone? You would let it get to you this bad? Especially if it didn't involve any plans? To be honest, I wouldn't be annoyed if a friend didn't respond to an email or a text where we're just chitchatting. I would just assume they got busy doing something else. But that's not the point: the point is, she's your ex for a reason. Let it go.
boogieboy Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 She just wanted to know what youve been up to, she wanted to see if you were over her or not, and she wanted to see if you were with anyone new. She didnt care about the conversation, she just wanted to kind of monitor you. Thats why she ignored you after that.
