Hey everyone. Well I'm back with an update on that Ex that I just couldn't get over no matter how hard I tried. Remember the one where my friend from the dating site emailed him to recruit him (and to find out how he REALLY felt about me)? Remember the one I was with for about 8 months - the one who didn't even acknowledge our relationship when my friend asked *How long have you been single?* Well, the good news is that I am about 90% over this guy. Although I still think about him off and on, I erased his email address from my address books, deleted ALL of his numbers from my home and cell phones, threw away ALL of his pictures, and have had no contact with him for the past 4 months. I'm also seeing other guys now and, in fact, I have a date with a new guy this Friday - New Years Eve.
I basically wrote that Ex off as being gay and washed my hands of the situation. Yeah I really liked him and I honestly felt that he was *The One.* And yeah it would've been nice to get some closure and an explanation of why things happened the way they did between us but, to be honest with you, I got tired of speculating and over-analyzing everything. I just got sick and tired of the torture and pain . . . .
And just when I cut the cord and started to move on with my life, my Ex calls me tonight out of the clear blue . . . . . Unbelievable.
I didn't answer the phone but he left a message saying that he was calling to see how I'm doing and to call back when I get a chance. He seemed very lively and upbeat . . . . I've never heard him sound so upbeat before . . . .
Anyway guys should I call him back or what???


Of course you shouldn't call him back. Why would you do that to yourself? It's taken you all this time to understand that there was nothing there, and get over the disappointment of it. Why would you "open the door" again?
Let it go.
No. I haven't even read the other replies yet. But no, don't call him back... at BEST I might answer if he calls and you have caller ID, and even then I'm not sure I would, but don't go out of your way to accomodate him now that he's decided that he feels like seeing how you are. This is a toxic man! You're better than being someone's matter of convenience, and wouldn't you rather know that you're the bigger person and you've moved on from him, rather than finding out that he wants a booty call or something? Focus on this new guy, the new year, and forget about all the crap!
(I'm clearly very anti-ex-boyfriend.)
I should be a televangelist for getting over men.
