runner2017 Posted July 22, 2017 Posted July 22, 2017 My boyfriend and I broke up 5 months ago. He broke up with me. We have had no contact, up until 3 weeks ago. I have had 3 missed calls from him. The first I ignored, the second I texted and asked if he was trying to reach me. He did not respond. The third I both called back and texted. He did not pick up the phone when I called, so I left a message asking again if he needed to reach me to call me back. I received a text back almost immediately apologizing saying it was a butt dial. He never butt dialed me in our entire relationship. Is this possible, three different times in 3 weeks...out of the blue?
LivingWaterPlease Posted July 22, 2017 Posted July 22, 2017 Possible, not probable. He must have thought better of it when you didn't answer the first time and texted the second time. I'd leave it be. If it was he, it seems a little gamey to me. If he wants to get in touch with you he will.
dumbass2 Posted July 22, 2017 Posted July 22, 2017 Just trying to see if you're still around and are still interested In him. You told him that by responding. He wants nothing more. Stop responding. You're giving him an ego boost. If you get a missed call from someone and no message, then it wasn't important and don't respond.
whatnot Posted July 22, 2017 Posted July 22, 2017 it's not accidental. nothing wrong with boosting anyone's ego. it makes us all feel good. but...not if it's at the expense of the one doing it. Take care
Maldives Posted July 22, 2017 Posted July 22, 2017 He's actions speak louder than his words he never responded keep that in mind till the third time it happened when u called him and texted. From that I would not read into it and not contact him again
Author runner2017 Posted July 22, 2017 Author Posted July 22, 2017 I get the ego boost replies. But why would he want an ego boost from me? He broke up with me. I have broke up with guys and personally could care less to get any ego boost from any of them or anyone I was not attracted to. I would not care to get attention from someone I was not interested in. My ego boost would only come from someone I still cared for or was attracted to. This is what is totally confusing to me.
Art_Critic Posted July 22, 2017 Posted July 22, 2017 he wanted to see if he still had you on the hook.. and he does.. you called and texted each time so you told him he can still count on you to be on the hook.. Time to turn a supposed butt dial into a blocked contact.. why haven't you blocked him ? Don't allow people that hurt you to mess with you in this manner..

This is what is totally confusing to me.Most people don't walk away from important relationships .... unaffected. (no matter how they're acting on the outside) I can tell ya something you don't know about yourself...or you know...but won't admit to.... You want the guy to want you. that's what this is about. take care
whatnot Posted July 22, 2017 Posted July 22, 2017 (edited) this is about you...not him.....and so you're asking "Do these calls mean he still likes me or are they accidental?" No one can answer that but him. NO one here can answer that. they're guessing...as am I. The guessing can go for years. It took me 10 years to answer questions about my divorce. Some...I'll take to my grave. It just gets to a point...to where...not having the answers....just doesn't matter like it once did....if at all... Edited July 22, 2017 by whatnot
