After 2 months being broken up, I’ve finally spent this last week NOT contacting him.

Up until this past week I’ve tried everything to get him back…tried to be his friend, tried telling him i still loved him and missed him….all the things you are NOT supposed to do. This past week though I feel a little differently, a little like it’s time to give up. He has a new girlfriend, he is in this new scene, and he just has been really mean to me and shown no interest in having me in his life at all. But the trouble is, 3 days after i started this whole thing, I get a friend request from him on facebook. I have no idea why he would do this. The last time we spoke he was very short and rude to me, telling me that he doesnt want to talk to me and he is just over the whole thing. So what exactly does this mean? I ignored the request, because as far as I’m concerned, he told me he doesnt want to talk to me and made it seem like he doesnt want me in his life, so why should we be friends on facebook? I’m doing this because I’m trying to make him think that I’m strong and over the whole thing, but really it’s driving me crazy. I’m still in love with him and still miss him very much. What do you all think about this?

Good job on moving on, and since you’ve had issues getting past him, I don’t think I’d accept his friend request right now. You can just leave it in your inbox if you think you might want to later (you don’t have to decline it). Also, I wouldn’t read anything into his sending you this request - I don’t think it means anything (although someone else might have a different opinion). You just keep taking care of yourself and moving forward - way to go!

There is no point accepting his request. He would be posting info and pics about him and his new life and i’m sure you would just be devastated.

A friends list at facebook or what else is good list of those people who make you feel nice inside. You need the companionship of your friends.

You don’t need to add someone who has hurt you.

That’s exactly why I deleted him in the first place…I didn’t want to see pictures of him period, and definitely not pictures of him with his new girlfriend/friends. I just don’t understand his reasoning for doing this? I haven’t heard from him in any other way…no phone calls or texts…i just don’t understand.

He is trying to hurt you. Why would he hurt you by saying hurting things but letting you remain in his list of friends?

I don’t see any other reason behind it.

And he probably wants you to move on. So he is letting you see his new girl and their pictures. You don’t need to see them of course.

Let him be. He is not worth it. No point in confusing yourself the reason why he does these things. He is certainly not worth your attention.

Why would he want to hurt me? I’ve never done anything wrong to him.
And I was trying to move on by deleting him…he must have understood that..?
I think he’s mixed up.

I think you’ve done amazingly well for not being in contact with him. Facebook is an awful thing when relationships are over. I know these times are incredibly hard but things will get better, I promise you. And one day in the future you’ll have someone who loves you with all their heart and you’ll look back and think, what did I ever see in that guy anyway?

I say congradulations on moving on.
Maybe hes noticed that youve stopped trying to contact him, so he wants to make it “easy” for you to keep hurting and obsessing. Just stay strong and dont accept his request.
