And I feel so sick. Just after a bit of company. Sad

Block and delete him on everything. Look forward not back.

ArtisanBreadBin · 08/03/2020 15:49

Just thinking about it makes me cry. The thing is, I can go weeks without messaging him. That's fine. I just can't bear the thought of not being able to. I know what I need to do but I'm still so heartbroken

@Allonym I haven't. His account is locked so I can't see it anyway. So I don't know. I asked him but he said "I'm not going to tell you" so. Whatever.

Tbh we've only got one side of the story here.

You need to cut contact completely. Block him and move on. He's with someone else now and it sounds like he's felt uncomfortable with you liking and commenting on his social media.

He's not your friend, you're pretending that you can be just friends when you still love him. It won't work and needs to stop.

God what an absolute twat!! Seriously OP I’d be grateful not to have him in your life. He’s clearly a mind fucker par excellence

Kit19 · 08/03/2020 15:54

And exactly what crusty said - you can’t be friends with him because you don’t want to be friends, you want to be more

Mumdiva99 · 08/03/2020 15:55

So he calls to ask you to do something without saying why??? Smacks of new girlfriend jealousy. But so what - good riddance to them both. Do something positive with the day now - plan a new hair cut, or a holiday, or a new wardrobe, or sign up for some ridiculous sporting challenge.... anything to stop wasting head space on him.

crustycrab · 08/03/2020 15:55

He rang and said "don't go on my social media but I'm not telling you why" even though he's blocked you from it? Odd

GreaseRizzo · 08/03/2020 15:55

Hope you’re alright op. I’ve been through something very similar so I guess this thread hit a nerve with me. Please take this as a lesson to just cut all ties now. You deserve so much better. Yes, you’ll miss the friendship but your self worth is so much more important. Maybe book yourself a bit of holiday away to have a change of scenery? Doesn’t have to be expensive. Counselling is definitely not a bad shout as talking out loud helps you to check in with your emotions. Best of luck xx

OhCaptain · 08/03/2020 15:55

This makes no sense! How can he be warning you off social media if you’re blocked?!

What did he say?!

RoseAndRose · 08/03/2020 15:59

Have you been posting about him?

ArtisanBreadBin · 08/03/2020 16:00

@RoseandRose fuck no. Like never.

RIP off the plaster block his dramatic arse Lock your profile dont put anything on there you dont want him to know in case of flying monkeys
for example out with my girls tonight cant wait = good missing my ex love him so much = bad
(Bad examples I know but 🤷‍♀️)

He sounds like he is about to start drama my ex does this we have children together causes no end of headaches for me especially when i apparently know what I did and know what I've said 🙄 I told him I work a fucking 40 hour week and look after three kids by myself spit it out or stop making up bollocks (we have been split for years so its easier) surprisingly he couldnt come up with ONE tangible thing I had done

Twat

chatterbugmegastar · 08/03/2020 16:09

What a passive aggressive cunt he is. I bet as soon as he knows you've moved on properly and don't give a toss any more, he'll be trying to reel you back in

ArtisanBreadBin · 08/03/2020 16:12

@GreaseRizzo Flowers thank you.

OP posts:
HappyHammy · 08/03/2020 16:12

Maybe he means stop messaging him. Dont rise to this. Just ignore him, dont concern yourself with him or his new gf. I reckon shes told him to stop any contact with you, let them get on with it,

Notcoolmum · 08/03/2020 16:18

Delete and block. Time to move on for good.

LovePoppy · 08/03/2020 16:19

He’s trying to keep you on your back foot. Even now.

Block and delete

Maybe he's worried about me sharing his dick pics...

I know what I need to do. Thank you for holding my hand. I'm immensely grateful.

Going to throw together a breadbin out of a a pallet now.

Treat yourself to a luxury pamper session to relax and rechargeFlowers

BumbleBeee69 · 08/03/2020 16:23

His personal life is unravelling... and he needs someone to blame....

offlikeabanger · 08/03/2020 16:32

When did he restrict your access to his SM? That's awfully strange if you're both still in two way contact by other means.
