tkgirl Posted September 1, 2012 Posted September 1, 2012 so I have this ex from a loooong time ago... we've somehow stayed in touch after all these years but not a lot, like maybe every year or two we might talk.. sometimes even longer... but I guess I could say we're friends. Anyways, he's going through a tough time right now... wife just filed for divorce and is going after full custody of their two daughters.. a four year old and a 7 month old! very sad and I don't know all the details but... Anyways, he stopped by one day out of the blue just to talk and we did but then I was like, "well.. take care.. gotta go..." Since then he's been texting a lot, even asked a couple times about getting together again etc. (just to talk more) but I would say I couldn't or whatever... He pretty much texts me every day now... I just think he's lonely and needs a friend but while I care about the guy and feel bad for him I really don't want him back in my life so much. When we were together it was sort of serious, lasted almost 3 years. Looking back now I see how it was NOT a good relationship and I was the one to end it... probably one of the smartest decisions I ever made. So the last two days he's texted me I have not responded.. I feel sort of bad but I'm trying to send the message that I have a life and he's not going to be a part of it again.. do you think he'll get it? I don't want to kick him while he's down but at the same time I have to look out for myself... any advice on how to handle this? thanks!!!
