Svetik Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 (edited) There is a guy that I had a very intense crush on when I was in college. He also said that he loved me. But when he was drafted to the army we had a fight in one of the letters and he abruptly stopped responding to me. I thought that it was over, so I moved on dating someone else. But I felt upset and betrayed about what happened. Then I left the country and haven't heard from him in 20 years until I found him on social networks. We became friends on FB. But we don't talk too much, just exchange short messages sometimes and most of the time I initiate them. He responds, but not right away. He used to wish me happy birthday, but then stopped doing that too. He liked a few of my pictures and posts, but he is very picky. He once liked a pic of me and my kids, but then I noticed that he removed his "like", which was wierd. He also messaged me in the middle of the night once and told me that he can't sleep because of his wife leaving him for another man, etc. I feel very bad for this guy, because both of his parents died, his wife left him and it seems like he's been generally out of luck in life. He also makes a point on FB that he is still single and is not planning to remarry, although he must be very lonely. I also have a blog where I write poetry and short stories. Some of the early poetry there which I wrote when I was 18 is devoted to him. People read my blog and leave responses. But there is one unknown reader who is constanly reading my blog at night and I can't figure out who that is. It does increase the counter of my readers, so it looks like I am "popular". I asked all my friends and relatives, but it is not them. Some clues that he has given out in his FB posts recently show that it is him. For example, he posted a short story about his childhood, which was in tune with stories I write. Although I don't understand why he does it and how he feels about me. It is a bit creepy. Thoughts?

jen1447 Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 You may be his last connection to the land of the living. Creepy's no good, but if he's never given you reason to feel afraid of him, you might consider pity. I wouldn't compromise yourself for him at all but if he's benign it might be an overreaction to wreck him in an attempt to spare yourself the discomfort.
Author Svetik Posted April 23, 2015 Author Posted April 23, 2015 I don't want to wreck him. Just trying to figure out what he is doing.
