alexa137 Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 trying to figure out why my ex keeps texting every few weeks, i may have posted this a few months ago but its a little different now we broke up oct 15- since then my ex has texted me about 5 different times , but today and the last time(about 2 weeks ago) he has been asking me how my mom is doing, she has lung cancer, which he knows because we were together when she was diagnosed. he told me a few weeks ago he was thinking about her and that he would pray for her. yes thats nice of him esp since hes probably the only one who asks about her other than my best girl friend. well he asked me again today and i replied, no so good and thanks for asking( i say this because she now has 3 brain tumors and only is expected to live another month to a year) but he doesnt know that. so then he asks me " do you need anything"? I dont know how to reply to that, its just hard anyways because the breakup was heartbreaking for me. i have many other posts about this situation. but this is coming from a man who told me 3 months ago that i was everything he didnt want out of a woman! but let me remind you that he was up my butt everyday for months! yea doesnt make sense. everything i feel like im over him or getting there(out of sight out of mind) he contacts me! its get annoying! i sometimes want to say leave me alone but he told me that when we broke up and I have never contacted him! he even wished me happy birthday and happy new year and i didnt respond. i dont want to be rude or mean i have ignored him a few times but just trying to figure what to say to this last text or im guessing most of you will say just ignore it
SharkTooth Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 Wow, I'm sorry to hear about your mom...It sounds like he may be sincere about her but you may want to tell him, if you have the option, to please ask another member of your family if he wants to know her condition. That you are moving on and would appreciate him respecting your wishes not to be contacted by him.
Author alexa137 Posted January 8, 2013 Author Posted January 8, 2013 well there is no one else he can ask, we didnt have mutual friends and i dont have a big family only my kid and dad, he didnt meet my dad thats my problem i cant be mean, i guess mostly because he was a good guy and treated me like a princess, but in the end(the last day)he acted like an a**hole!
Renard99 Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 I think you may just have to be honest with him and say that whilst you appreaciate the care and support he's trying to give, you would rather he didn't contact you again as emotions are still high and you see this as the best way to cope. If he's as caring as he sounds like then hopefully he'll respect your wishes.
