So i guess you could call him my ex, we have not spoken for a few weeks now ever since he started to ignore me, when i say ignore it is basically like i dont even exist to him at all. The only message i have got is to say that he needed space and time for himself, and that he understood my decision to let him go as all he ever seemed to do was hurt me, and that he did still love me. However, at the time i had thought he was dissing me which lets face it he is and he only said that to make himself feel better.

Anyway i brought him a couple of Christmas presents one was a diginal photo frame so he could put photos of his kids on, as right now he is only allowed supervised vistitations, after not seeing them for over a month. I know its is a lame present which i am regretting because i just dropped it off at his place, he does not live there as he lives at his parents out of town, but am now afraid that he is just going to leave it there like it means nothing and just let it rot, as i texted him telling him i got him a present and nothing, once again, as i have tried to contact him over the past few weeks and there is never a repy, a few times like if he needed help with his assignments for a course to do with work then he could email me the assignment etc, and if he needed to talk then i was here for him etc.

I am tempted to go out to his parents and confront him, but im too scared to do that, but i just want him to accept my gifts etc. And i want to call his parents to see how he is, as last time i spoke he was really depressed worse than i ever had seen him before. But maybe his life is all better now and he got everything he wanted and just is to mich of a coward to tell me. i mean i know 7 years old who would treat people better, let alone a 27 year old.

What do you guys think am i being totally retarted and he is just going to reject my christmas presents etc and that i should not face him. I know alot of people who when someone is not talking to them or they want answers and they cant get it through email/phone they will just approach that person, plus that is what people do on the movies and TV not that is my model for behaviour. Or alot of people will say the opposite like just let it go, so i dont know.

Anyway any advice would be good if you can make sence of my jibberish.

Hi lexie86,

I think that your gift of a digital camera was kind ~ and I can see part of the logic behind it....but I don't think that your ex will be real receptive. Really, it sounds like you are sending mixed messages.

You broke up with him because he was hurting you.

I can see that you care about your ex as a human being, but you're hurt that he hasn't followed up with you as he normally would have. It sounds very confusing to me...but I don't always follow things real easily. Unfortunately, the break-up did affect your ex.

Perhaps your ex will become enlightened and someday you two can become friends again. But I would recommend waiting for him. Maybe tell your ex's parents that you do care and that you're willing to talk, if your ex ever needs a friend. But don't put yourself in there more than that.

That's my personal opinion. Best wishes to you both!

Hello, lexie86. During the time you and he have been in incommunicado have you reason to believe a reconciliation is even a maybe?

It is not really about a reconciliation in some ways for me, i just care about him and do worry about him and would like to know where i stand and i guess after everythng we have been through i think that it is silly how it just ended with a text. I dont think he is in a good place for a relationship with me, but i would like to be there for him and support him as i love him still and care for him still.
I just dont undertand how someone can just ignore someone and drop them out of there lives like he did.
