Ztw Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 So my ex texted my sister a few days ago. She almost didn't tell me because she knows how awful it's been for me, & didn't want to upset me. I changed my number a few months ago. My ex left me about 7 months ago after 8 years together & immediately started dating this other girl. So I've been pretty heartbroken. Anyways I guess he wanted my sister to tell me about some stupid video game he knows I love is being made into a movie. That's it I guess. She didn't know it was him until she asked. Then I guess he tried to ask her about me & begged her to tell me about the video game. She politely ended the convo. I don't get it... Why even bother? I'm not texting him or calling him I just wanted to see what others thought about this. I have not seen or spoken to him since he broke up with me.
RespectfullyAlone Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 Chances are if you're into video games, you'd be well aware of this game being made into a movie anyway. Thus his reason is one of the weaker ones I've seen here to reach out. No idea why he reached out. As for him contacting your sister, from your comments he clearly doesn't have your new number, so I guess your sister was about as close as he could get. I don't have any advice here Ztw. But if he was actually missing you and caring for you, and didn't have the guts to tell you yourself, then he could have easily said a few things to your sister about his feelings, mistakes, what have you. Have you been NC since 7 months ago? When was the last time you were in contact.
Author Ztw Posted November 20, 2013 Author Posted November 20, 2013 Hi, thanks for replying. I agree, it just seems like such a weak reason to get in touch. I seriously have not seen or spoken to him since he broke up with me at the end of April. It's been really hard for me, I do miss him a lot. Regardless of his intentions I just think he's gonna have to try harder. We live in the same town minutes away from each other & As far as I know he's still with the girl he pretty much left me for. I don't get it. I guess I'm just over analyzing it. I finally started feeling a bit better he pops up out of nowhere.
RespectfullyAlone Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 I won't lie and say I wish I would hear from my ex. If he is still with this girl he left you for, then why he wanted you to know about this game/movie thing doesn't matter does it. If he was single, then I think it would in the sense that even if he was attempting to come back to you for other reasons than love, realizing he made a mistake etc, you'd be better prepared. I have a feeling you probably won't hear anything from him at least for the short term. Thus you'll be left with the cruel thoughts of why did he contact my sister, why now, what's his game yada yada yada. I know exactly the sort of pain you are experiencing. It sucks. It kills you, everything inside of you. Your dreams, hopes, motivation, everything. I don't know what to say to help you feel better. I'm not better and it's been 11 months of NC for me, with my birthday and other important anniversaries I experienced with my ex, what to speak of the BU which was New Years Eve. I hope you have a better outcome in terms of coping and trying to move on that I have had.
