After 3 months NC, I got an apology.

I broke up with him 3 months ago after a 5 month relationship because he stopped respecting me and acted cold and distant.

I was fine with the idea of us never acknowledging each other again. I deleted him from Facebook, Snapchat, Twitter, etc

 

But yesterday, he very unexpectedly messaged me on Facebook a long apology, saying I had every right to hate him, but he'd like to

be friends. Being civil and pretty much over it, I said I was cool with being friends. He then goes on to say his family still talks about

me ("I'm the prettiest gf he's ever had"), he's complimenting me saying I'm beautiful or whatever, and he asked me to hang out that

same day

 

I said goodnight and goodbye but then he said he would message me in the morning. It's like he's trying to get this going again.

Could it be that he's just lonely with a lack of options now?

 

Any input on what his intentions might be, or has anyone been through anything similar?

I don't know, I'd be wary of his intentions. It sounds like he's trying to get something going again but you need to find out what the motivating factor is. Is it boredom like you said or is he truly feeling remorse and regret for the way he's acted? I wouldn't take him back lightly. Make him earn his way back into your life. If he really care, he'll fight.

First off its not about being lonely with a lack of options. Men don't think like women, that is a very woman way to look at things. He actually likes you and misses you as a person. You can't replace one person with another and expect the same results. Second yeah he is trying to get things going again. A lot of women look at a man as an object that is easily replaceable with another man or object. Any good man will do right lol men are generally not like that contrary to popular belief. He misses you and he said sorry so maybe you should take a chance and see where it goes if you still like him.
