The more he texts me the more I get confused. What if the content of the messages change? Should I still continue the no contact? or ignore them?

The man contacts you at god awful hours of the day because he wants sex from you. What isn't making you want to puke and get as far from him as possible? If you don't see it as a sign of disrespect but as a sign of healthy and loving interest, yes, keep accepting his contact. SMH.

 

You were together for 45 days. He started with another woman very, very soon after. Do you actually think nothing was going on with her while he was with you? I have a strong feeling he secured her way before he ended it with you. Please use your brain and think, not your heart.

 

And he has a girlfriend now. Why are you entertaining his cake eating? It should make you sick to think that this man could be asking you for sex while he has a girlfriend. And if he can do this to her, what makes you think he won't do it to you, and he most likely did when he dumped you for her.

 

You told him you loved him and he slipped away like slime. You think he's a narcissist and you still want to engage.

 

Think for FFS.

We met online and during the end of that week before he broke up with me. He started to be active online the website again and I'd seen he added a girl off facebook. I thought nothing of it then decided to do a reverse search to see if she was on it , she was so he met her just before he dumped me. I know the best thing is the move on though and it'd only be stressful if we did get back together or anything which I want to avoid. I think I just need to work on getting over him again as I seem to have fallen back a bit from him texting me .

He texted me again even after I ignored his last text.

He sent it at 2.47am it just said "Hi" .

He hasn't blocked me again yet he knows I've ignored it.

 

What does he want? it seems the more i ignore the more he tries.

 

Should I ignore it? I'm thinking I should as you can't reply much to "Hi" and I've moved on.

Change your number. Then post his number on craigslist in the casual encounter section. Jk. But really, block him or change yours.

I can't block his number don't want to change my number. I'll just keep ignoring it? I thought he'd stopped contacting me since I ignored his last.

Because he is not emotionally invested in this and he wants to add you to his sex buddy rotation. If I were you, I wouldn't be flattered by him texting you. I'm sure he is doing it to other girls also. Don't believe me? sleep with him and he will leave you again OR check his phone and you shall see. He is texting you to make you an option.

Is he missing me at all when he does text me? That doesn't mean he wants me back,

I don't see how he is serious about his girlfriend if he keeps texting me.

Its weird he hasn't blocked me again. It's almost as if he was texting "Hi" to tell me he unblocked me maybe to see if I'll text him?

Is it possible my ex is starting to miss me?

 

So he texted me 29th Nov. now today Dec 5th he texted me again just "Hi" at like 3.10am . but I had been online around 3am. He texts me on whatsapp and there was a picture of him and his girlfriend as the icon earlier I noticed he removed the picture of them and a few hours later he texted me.

Why does he only say "Hi" ?

About 2 months after my breakup, my ex would text me every few days or so just wanting a response. The less frequently I responded, the more he would text. He even called a few times and wanted to meet up when I continued to act disinterested.

 

The texts would be nonsense like, "Have a good day," "I'm wearing the tie you bought me last Christmas," "Such and such team won the soccer game today." Basically, texts that are meant to keep a foot in the door and seem innocent. It makes you feel like the bad guy if you don't respond. The reality is that this type of relationship (if you could even call it that) adds little to your life, and it delays healing.

 

Always remember that texting is lazy communication from an ex. If your ex had even semi-decent intentions, he would make a phone call or ask to meet up and talk about the relationship. It's easy to send text crumbs because they require little effort. Continue to ignore.

If he wanted anything close to reconciliation he'd come a lot more correct than "hi". Stop trying to figure out what another person is thinking. If his message is worth your consideration he'll make it clear, not stupid stuff that you keep wasting your time trying to figure out. You aren't trying to solve the Matrix here.

He actually blocked me again . It seems like more of a reaction on his part.

Maybe he's hurt or angered by me ignoring him?

It's not your place (or best interest) to care what he feels now.

 

Focus on what you feel about him bothering you with texts in the middle of the night.

Maybe you should stop trying to get inside his head and start trying to figure out what's going on in your own head. You aren't a mind-reader, so stop trying to read minds. You are driving yourself to lunacy over a "hi" message. QUIT IT!

Why should you care? The only thing you should care about at this point is your own well being.

I'm not going to lie I do really miss him but I'm being strong by ignoring his texts, it makes me stronger the more I ignore them. Sometimes I do feel like texting back. I'm just thinking possibly he's starting to wonder if he made a mistake letting me go an him removing the picture of him an the girlfriend, but I don't know it could be nothing I just get the feeling he still has feelings for me. If he texts "Hi" again should I maybe text back this

"so why do you keep texting me "Hi" at the most unusual times and not saying anything more? Is it because you want me to text you back?"

or should I still keep strict NC like what i'm doing?

For the love of God do not send that. That would be one of the most foolish things you could do. I realize that you don't want to listen and you'd rather live in a fantasy world, but stop overthinking.

 

Block his number and stop overanalyzing a "Hi". Hi means nothing. You are driving yourself insane. If he wants anything he'll say something of substance. You are creating a fantasy in your mind.

Just stop with it. See it for what it is. A fake, pseudo relationship over texts. This is not even worth your time.

Oh no I won't send that one of my friends suggested I should send that that but I didn't feel like that was a good message. I'll keep up strict NC like I've been doing unless he actually makes his intentions clear, I'll try not to overanalyse his actions. It was only the him removing his picture and him and his girlfriend that made me look into it a little more.

If you were in true No Contact you wouldn't have known that he changed his picture in the first place because he'd be blocked.
