He's texting me every day. I have told him I have moved on, though not entirely, but my emotions aren't really with him anymore. I can't bring myself to block him entirely. That just seems harsh and part of me likes the attention. I guess I like having him on the back burner in case military guy doesn't work out, but it really can't work out with him so I know logically I need to let him go. But with him not letting me go it makes it harder. Is there something I can say or do besides blocking him?

Decide for yourself, do you ever want him and that situation to repeat? Easy question

I know it's hard, but you need to block him, or at least make things clear once and for all.
Thanks for this!

Blocking is the way. It can be a hard way, but it is the way.

“Keeping him on the back burner” is not fair to him and not healthy for you. If the relationship didn’t work, it’s time to block him and move on.

Please try to end things on a good note and give him closure

Block him if he keeps texting after that
Thanks for this!

I did give him closure and tried to end on a good note. He said goodbye. I think he's done now, first time he's said good bye. I didn't respond to his goodbye made me sad. I will miss him.

I’ve been blocked before, it hurt me a lot that there was no closure

But overtime I know it’s difficult to block people too
