to be upset about ex's email?

[covermyfacefromthesun]

I got an email off my ex today saying - You need to seek professional help.

That's all it said.

We haven't spoken since October. I have sent him an email to apologise about a month ago, all I said was I accept that I did wrong and I'm sorry. It had nothing to do with getting back together.

He never responded to that.

The reason we broke up was because it was too long distance.

I have no idea why he said this. He was the one who wanted the break up, so hes not saying it to get a reaction from me, or to try and get me to talk to him.

aibu to be upset and really confused??

All sounds a bit weird. What did you have to apologise for?

Please don't reply.

Horrible especially today

You've just received this email right before Christmas ? Its done to unsettle and headfuck you, make you question yourself and make you think of him....when you probably are getting on with your life and enjoying yourself

Miserable fucker he sounds

How bizarre. Unless you had discussed stuff and this had cone up before.

Try to rise above it.

Well we used to live very close to each other but now I've had to move back.

He wanted space, but after a few weeks I needed an answer so I kept ringing him. I didn't want to lose him so I needed a definite answer.

It was wrong of me, and it must have been very annoying which is why I apologised.

I just needed him to know that I realised I'd been wrong.

I sent the apology and moved on with my life.

And then I woke up to that email.

thewhistler no he's never said anything like that to me before.

If anything I think he has a few issues. But I would never use those against him.

Send an email back saying 'Thank you, but my new boyfriend disagrees.' even if you're not seeing anyone. Then delete his email and block his address.

Happy christmas.

does anyone know how I can block an email on hotmail?

I'd send one back saying, "You need to take your head out of your arse and get a life. I've moved on and am happy in a new relationship. I'm sorry for you that you're so clearly still messed up. I don't think a therapist could help you, unless they were a skilled detwatter."

You highlight it as if you are about to delete is and then click on 'sweep' and then I think it's 'block sender' or something like that. You may need to move it to the junk folder first. Not totally sure on that bit.

Please try to not let this worry you, he's clearly an asshole.

Just ignore it

When you say 'I kept ringing him' how many times did you call him, roughly? I'd get really freaked out if an ex kept calling me, poor bloke could have been terrified of finding his pet bunny in a boiling saucepan.

Sweep, then 'delete all from' which also has a 'also block future messages' box to tick

Are you sure it was for you?

I don't know how many times. I needed an answer.

And it was wrong of me. But this was October and since then I've apologised and we have had absolutely no contact since then.

It would make sense if he'd sent it after me ringing him.

But that was early October, so almost a good 3 months ago now.

I wouldn't reply- you are too busy having fun, right?

Perhaps reply after New Year saying "I missed this, as i dont use this email account as my main one now, and diidn't check it over the festive period, but I was a bit surprised- I thought we had both moved on. All the best for the new year anyway, take care, Covermyface".

Then he won't have the satisfaction of knowing he's upset you.

Thank you.

I used sweep and then the block function came up

Did you post about it back in Oct ?

You were probably told he was being a chain-yanking cunt then...and this is just another manifestation of it.

Ignore

No I've never posted about him before.

Sounds like he wasn't happy to hear from you again, I'm sorry. Just ignore this and move on. There's no knowing what he was thinking so don't bother going down this route. We have to kiss a lot of frogs to find our prince; keep kissing them!

No maybe he wasn't, but I sent it a month ago and he never responded so ... it's just so odd to send that email to me now.

So he used the need space excuse and after a few weeks you wanted to know what was happening so rang him (excessively maybe?) but you apologised for that.

Sounds like a spineless arse who didn't have the balls to tell you he wanted to end the relationship.

If I was you I'd just ignore him.

Ignore the email, block him and forget about him.
If he is sending this to you randomly then I suggest he needs professional help.

Have you accidently sent a text or email maybe or accidently called him? Maybe he changed email adress and only just got your email?

I agree with the ignore, block and forget about him option, don't get drawn into an email conversation/slanging match.
