I broke up with a guy that I had been dating for about 2 months. The reasons were because I felt like he wasn't interested in the same thing I was. (he was obviously looking around frequently online) and we just stared having differences that I felt wouldn't make us a great long term match.

 

Things were very civial for the most part we still communicated and I thought we were both on the same page. So, lately he's been asking me about my dating habits for example if I've gone out with anyone, had sex with anyone.. you get the idea. I wouldn't answer because I feel that first of all it is none of his business and that even if I was it had nothing to do with him and wouldn't be beneficial to him to know this.

 

So, I backed down on the contact a little and I wake up Sat. morning to find a nice instant message that exclaims "I had really great sex last night". WTF!! Why would a guy in his thirties stoop to such an immature level? I just responded by telling him that I don't care and I don't understand his point in giving such information and if he felt he needed to continue with the childish games to please don't even consider me a friend and don't talk to me.

 

Haven't heard a work since. Can anyone else figure out why he's being so freaking childish??

What an As* delete him from your IM and never talk to him again.

 

It most likely wasn't even true.. He was/is expecting a reaction from you to come running back to him.

 

Just a loser...

because he knows it will get to you...and it did.

Because their mental age corresponds to that of a 13-year old?

 

It shows that you are better off without him.

That's what I thought. lol..

 

At least I didn't let him really get a negative response from me. I just told him I didn't care and to please stop contacting me if he was going to act like this. Do you think that was the right way for me to handle it?

Saying nothing would've been the best response.. But texting what did is the best response that you could've given by contacting him

I think this was the best thing to do. Breaking up can bring out the child in all of us - behaving like an adult is the best response.

precisely. don't respond to this crap anymore. he was fishing, hoping you'd say "oh yah? me too!" in which case he'd know you were over him and hittin' it with other dudes. OR, that you'd say "oh no! please tell me she didn't mean anything, i'll do anything to have you back!" in which case, he gets the satisfaction of knowing he got you back by acting like an ass.

 

his type of behavior is hurtful and immature. be better than that and drop him from contact immediately.

That's what I thought too!! It made me so mad when he would ask me questions about my relationships with "new" guys. I don't understand why he would want to know.

 

His actions clearly make it obvious that I made the right decision in getting rid of his a&&!!
