Hello all,
I find myself back here after a year! Sunday out of the blue I got a face book request from ex OM. I was shocked and added him... silly old me! He was on line and we spoke.
Next day i got the text msgs

Sunbeam,
I wasn't posting on this board on year ago , but your name looks familiar. So let me get this straight...You had an A with this man before? Correct me if I am wrong, but if you did, why would you ever except a friend request from him?
Okay, water under the bridge, but the fervent txt messages should have been a strong warning that he was on the hunt again. I can't help but think that maybe this was his whole gig anyway...to suck you back in just to drop you like a hot potato, new girl or no new girl. I could be way off on this too, but it seems it all happened pretty darn quickly and then all of a sudden he's met someone? Yeah, right.
You can block him from FB. I think Newdawnmilk has a thread telling you how to do this. You can also just delete him from your friends list which is what I would do. What he pulled was very insensitive, if not just plain mean. You will then have to accept that this was an error in judgment and another lesson learned.
((Hugs))

Hi, and thanks for you reply,
Yes i had an on off affair with him for 3 yrs.... the last contact
Well sweetie, I hope you stick around for a bit until the sting of his bite wears off. Re-read our Healing Library and start fine tuning your resolve again. There is a lot of new stuff there too since you have been here, so get busy. ;-)

So sorry this happened to you sunbeam. It looks like he just came back into your life to see if he could still get you to come out and play with him like the old days. It's a conquest for him apparently and perhaps a bit of revenge for your ability to go NC for a year. No matter, it still hurts to think that someone you once cared for could treat you with such disregard. Glad that you have the insight to see it for what it is and come back here and get some reinforcement for your decision to go back to NC. I think we all believe that with time we will be able to handle a "friendly" meeting, but you're correct about the addiction part. It would take so little to rekindle old feelings and then WHAM, you're right back in it.
I'd take Iddy's advice and unfriend him or even better, block him so that he never gets a chance to use you again. If you need any assistance in doing this, please contact me.
hugs,
newdawn
This would be a great addition to any of the "don't be friends" threads.

hello,
yes it would be a good one for that topic subject....
im sure i will be ok but today I am: weepy, missing him, feeling silly, feeling so stupid as he said he was sorry if i think he lead me on.... . what was the kissing about then?? did i get it wrong, were they not the signals he wanted to send?, and then of course he found someone almost as soon i left him... so i am cast aside and i got it wrong!!!???

I wish it was as easy to delete them from your heart .......

Hi Iddy
thanks again.... i thought i had read it wrong!!
I DIDNT DID I?... he was the one who started the intimate text msgs, and i fell for it again.
I suppose i should have known better from past experience, but i loved him, (love him or thought i did) and i thought this time he felt the same, that he had come back for me.
I do love my family tho, my husband is great and i have a lovely home, which begs the question why does this man mean something to me????
I dont want to be a lady in an affair i want to be the happy lady i was before it.

What he did sounds passive aggressive (unintentional or not). It's a push and pull game.
I'm proud of you for telling him no it is not okay - and for blocking him.
