After my ex boyfriend and I broke up he wouldn't stop contacting me, so I finally asked him not to contact me for a while. He didn't listen of course and kept acting as if he cared. Then he completely stopped texting, without a warning just stopped. Then a few days later he deleted me from facebook. Saw he was in a relationship with someone else, who was even his type. Nobody thought it was going to last then 2 weeks later they broke up. We didn't speak for those 2 weeks and I was completely fine. The same day they broke up he texted me that evening.

 

Then he got on skype and messaged me there to tell me it was him who texted the other night but he didn't want to bug me. So, the next day he texts me bright and early and he kept apologizing for what happened and kept talking about how much he sucked and how he hoped I didn't hate him and how much he missed me and how much he wanted to see me. Telling me how he wants to go to our favorite place together and plan a mini weekend getaway. Telling me if we started dating again I would be the only person he's dating and blahblahblah. (he didn't cheat on me before but I guess he was just trying to reassure me he wouldn't ever do that to me.) Pretty much showing regret. (The first time he contacted me again was Monday night) He told me in advance that Friday would be a bad day to hang bc he was getting his car taken apart, but if it got done a decent time he would drive up and see me.

 

Now, we aren't together right now, but we are talking in a way like we are and want to be, and I know I don't have a say in who he talks to right now, but once we do start hanging out and figuring out what's going to happen I will definitely have a say. But yesterday I was snooping around (think it's a girl trait) and I went on her page and saw she posted a picture at his house in the AM. Now, I don't know if this was from a few days ago when they were together OR it was from yesterday.

 

Don't know why he would need to even hang out with her after they broke up a few days ago when he already what he needs with me (sexually and emotionally) I really don't know if they hung out yesterday bc he was really getting his car worked on all day... But he did say "if i don't respond back it's bc we're working on my car" If he did hang out with her... Why would he even bother attempting to work things out with me? Why would he hang out out with her? What's going on? I want to be with him :/

 

Refrain from rude remarks please.

I have a really bad habit of seeing one little piece of information and then making up what if stories based on it. Trust me, all it does is run your brain in circles and it doesn't help you if you want to be attractive to your ex. I would say to not worry about it, and if he continues to try to flirt with you or whatever, then ask him. Say something like, 'If you're going to spend time with that other girl, then I don't think it's a good idea for us to continue doing this.' He might end up making a choice you don't like, but at least you won't be led around by the nose. And if it makes you feel better, I did something like this with my ex with whom I hope to reconcile, and though it's been a slow process, things seem like they might be circling back into a good place for us maybe getting back together. But it's never a bad idea to show some backbone, I thnk. Or else he might think he'll always have you around and he can just do whatever in the meantime.
