Has he really left me alone or is he just waiting ...

to see if I will contact him?

It's been a while since I posted anything on here however I still read many stories which are always inspiring and emotional.

My ex N went through a phase about a month of phone calls every week and then a text message asking me to call him and then his mother passing by house and stopping to take a look.

Of course I didn't respond to any of this and I will admit that it has been really hard not to contact him asking him what he wants, however if it is that important then he would continue to try or text what he wants.

Now the phone calls and texts have stopped. Nothing.

My question is this - do I take this as a sign that he has finally relented and will leave me alone obviously getting the picture that I want nothing to do with him? Or is he just playing a waiting game to see if my curiousity will get the better of me and I contact him? Or will he wait until the new year and try again?

Seriously is this just a sick game to them? My psychologist says that he is playing with me and that whatever it is not about me but all about him and any real or perceived crisis and that he wants something from me.

They r crazy

My xh contacted me after 10 years of NC I was shocked cause he left and married his OW and moved out of state but found me on facebook and contacted me I did talk to him but he quickly relized I was not the same girl he left and that ended the conversation and have not heard from him again. I also heard from another one after 6 years NC that was nuts after 6 yrs he textes me "do you have a boyfriend" WTF all I said was "What do u want" have not heard from him again either WTF I have deleted all exes from my phone why do they still keep our nmbers?? They are a strange breed for sure. Once you get them out of your head and move on with your life it is very esy to see that you do not need that Bull**** and soo easy to tell your self they are exes for a reason Stay strong Lost it will get better try to think about you and not what "HE" wants or thinks !!!

It's all cat and mouse

The chase for Mommy when something in their lives has gone wrong. It's all about supply for them and playing with others. He is low on good supply or someone or something caused him to become fearful or angry so he is looking for a fix from you. He may have found it somewhere else or he grew angry over your not responding and said f it for now. They become angry when they are ignored, so they look elsewhere for now. He may or may not try again, depends on him and what his m/o is. Some try off and on for years and others try when they are down and out. There is no set pattern here. The good news is that you did not respond and this sends out a great message.Good job on resisting the temptation to respond. NC all the way!!! God bless, Goldie

He could have very well found

He could have very well found new supply for now. This does not mean he won't start contacting you again, when the new relationship ends. He will remember you only if his NS is low. That is what they do.

Mine did hoover me after 2 years of silence...it made me anxious be cause the hoovers where not asking to be a friend,or whatever ...the emails were very confusing.as i did expected but when he did thank me for not sending a bunch of emails to a new email address he gave me,after changing his cell number,i did exploded and to;d him i do not need crumbs or nothing sayuing emails...he told me he was trying to comunicate without going beyond basic conversation...and he really has nothing to say to anyone if he is not trying to be with a person,and apologized for sending these e mails and also told me i have no reason to comuntcate with him,and him with me.So i am NC now for 2 months...haven't heard a single word.Expect the unexpected.You never know.i do not try to understand Madness anymore.You shouldn.t either.HUGHS
