Hi single mum for 3 years. First guy I saw for 6 months messed me about something chronic, saying he didn't want commitment then went off with another girl who he's been with for 6-7 months. Broke my heart! Then today I get a message out of the blue saying how it'd be nice to see me when he comes around doing a charity fundraiser in a few weeks, and would I like to bring my daughter as it'd be nice to see me..signed off with a x so all very friendly and after it all ended quite badly between us, but I find it quite bizarre.
What does everyone think is going on???? Give me your thoughts!
Do I
A) ignore the message
B) respond bright and breezy, have a chat and pretend he never broke my heart and it's all fine
C) ask him why he is messaging me after all this time and what does he want?
D) respond and be flirty and then drop him in it with his girlfriend assuming they haven't split up
I suspect he might've got bored with the new girlfriend and fancy a bit on the side but I just don't know how best to reply. Or he could just trying to make amends and be nice. Either way I'd love to be one of these sassy women who kicks time wasters arses but I can never come up with good responses!!! How can I put him in his place/ find out what he's up to?! Any ideas?!!!!

A - no question! Don't give him satisfaction of a response.

Think he is just after a donationt tbh, he made the message quite non sexual/ flirty affair by asking you to bring your daughter.

A and block , don't spend another moment trying to predict this man's thoughts , he's with someone else. Get over it

He's just hitting everyone in his contacts list up about the fundraiser.

Option A. And then delete and block.

Unanimous. That doesn't happen often on MN.

He doesn't deserve any of your attention. Your best best is to enjoy your life without him. Enjoy.
