Less a question and more of a cautionary tale.

 

My ex played mind games with me for three years. Would call and text, say she loved me, that she was dumb to break up with me. Then she'd fall off the face of the Earth, not respond to texts or emails or calls.

 

She resurfaced this summer and has been texting/calling at least once every two weeks. She'd say she wants to get married and have kids (not to me specifically), ask if I thought we'd ever get back together, ask if my family would accept her back. She'd send pictures of her and her family. She'd call when she was having trouble, when she was changing jobs, when her grandmother died, when she was fighting with her roomates or with her sister. She'd call when she did too much blow and when she was super hungover. Over the past three months she'd call late on Saturdays and Fridays, asking if I wanted to meet up. I resisted for a while but eventually gave in. We spent a few nights together and she (not me) would openly ask if we should get back together. I finally asked her straight out if she wanted to try again and she threw it back in my face and said she knew I couldn't handle contact. I flipped and threatened to paste her recent texts on facebook to let everyone know how crazy she is.

 

Bottom line, when your ex calls ask yourself if you can handle not getting back together. There are people out there that enjoy being wanted and will not care who they hurt in their pursuit of that feeling. I'm now back to square one and it sucks.

You need to delete this girl from your life.

I just broke NC & my ex suggested a catch up...I'm unsure as I'm hoping for reconciliation, in your opinion is this a bad idea? Should I just bar it & keep moving forward?

Your ex seems unfriendly by the way...I would leave that situation in the dark !
