Is he not over his ex?

[thefinalcount]

I've been casually seeing someone for a little while now.
He never talks about anything (if he "likes" me,if it's going anywhere)
I have zero clue.
He split with his ex about a month before we met.
They were together 2 years they split for two and were together 5 years before that and lived together.
He has mentioned her a few times to me,telling me how they got back together and about how she hated the house he rented for them to live in.
He told me about why they broke up the first time.
I was sat with his friends and one said to him "just watched ex Snapchat story"
He immediately said I don't want to know.
He's blocked her on everything.
He texts me every single day,we have fun together but it's like he's not over his ex and doesn't want to let me know if this is headed anywhere.
Do I let him decide without pressure ?
I've asked him recently and he got all moody saying I was coming on too strong and to relax a bit.

And to add - lots of people advise to do this, and plenty of people do!! Ever heard breakup advice that says' 'get back on the horse' or 'go on a few dates to get your ex out of your mind?'

Essentially the whole, 'get under someone to get over someone,' spiel.

It's pretty common advice. no-one seems to give a thought to the poor person at the receiving end of those dates and rebound sex who is only being used as a stepping stone for that person to feel better about their recent breakup.

“He said to me last time I seen him he doesn't say he wants to be with someone till he knows he wants to be with someone”
Dump.

It's a total minefield isn't it.

Not really, as soon as you suspect that this is the situation you're in, you walk away from it. Why would you do anything else?

(If the answer is going to be, "because I love him", then I don't want to hear it! That's the lamest excuse for tolerating shit behaviour and it does my head in!!)

It's obvious he's either not over his ex, or that he's not over the experience with his ex, and is therefore not ready to date with a fresh head if you know what I mean.

I don't think he can answer your questions because I doubt he knows the answer to them.

Personally i'd end it!
