What does he want??

I’m so confused and I’m wondering if anyone has any thoughts.

10 years ago I dated a guy let’s call him M for about a year and a half. What started as a great relationship towards the end was actually really awful and I was too blinded to see. Examples he was outright nasty about my appearance, didn’t contact me for days and just stood me up a fair few times. Looking back now I don’t know why I put up with it but hindsight is a wonderful thing! Anyway he ended it I was upset at the time but I quickly moved on and I met someone who is the polar opposite my now husband and we are happily married with children. from what I understand 10 years ago he also married.

M has randomly send me an email about something we were discussing 10 years ago (I ignored this) he then tried to add me on a social media platform again I ignored. Today he has tried to add me on a different platform.

i have nothing to say to him and he’s not someone I know anymore or in my life who I can hand on heart say I have thought about these last 10 years.

i just don’t understand what he wants??!

I shall keep blocking and hoping it’s the end of that but I’m just baffled should I respond and tell him to go away??

You were an easy target because you put up with his shit for too long. So he’s likely single and thinks he can persuade you to do this again. Keep him blocked.

@Purplecatshopaholic 100% he is it’s just a bit irritating to be honest- like why hasn’t he got the hint when I didn’t reply the first two times??

Block him. Why are you giving him a second's thought? I bet he'd love it if he knew how much headspace you have given this + posted on here.

Interested in this thread?

@Mulledjuiceyour right!!! I do block every time x I am not giving him another thought he’s really not worth a second x

I'd be tempted to say 'Who are you?' and if he replies then just keep feigning ignorance - 'Sorry, who? We went out together, really? I don't remember you at all, you must be thinking of someone else'
Although in reality, you should just block and ignore.
