Wishing me a happy birthday and hoping I’m well 🤣
Very predictable.

Take your wishes and shove them up your arse. You didn’t look me in the eye, you were emotionally cold with me and played endless mind games. You hurt me more than you will ever know (sometimes even physically no matter how you tried to dress it up as being “a joke”) You made life so unbearable that I had a breakdown.
I’m now finally over it all and more importantly over you and you think it’s normal to send me a cheery message with kisses almost a year down the line? No thanks mate!
P.s.... I told my therapist all about you.

That’s what I’d want to send if it was even worth a response but.... it’s not.

Well done for not falling for it OP

Good on you! Happy Birthday, here's to the loser having his comeuppance and life only getting better!

Purpleorangegerberas · 30/03/2020 22:17

Thank you, rewind time and I would have fallen for it hook, line and sinker.
Not now. Not ever again.
Thanks @slowco4ch Smile it was lovely. Nice meal that I really fancied, birthday cake and a film!
I don’t wish him ill but I certainly don’t wish to be contacted either.

Glad you're ignoring, OP. It took me over 2yrs to get rid of my ex properly. They can be a right pain in the arse, desperate for a bit of attention when no one else is on the scene.

Can you block him?

Purpleorangegerberas · 30/03/2020 22:47

Oh god I hope it doesn’t last that long @catfeets, started showing up before in places he knew I’d be, once on a holiday I’d said I was going on and once at a concert 😳 after that we didn’t speak again so he didn’t know where I’d be.
@SandyY2K I’d blocked from all social media but didn’t think about the actual number as we’d not spoken in a while. That’s now done. Last tome I ignored a message he contacted a family member to ask me to call! Family member will now block too if it’s tried again.

Well done OP. I wonder how many men who didn't want to commit, played games or were emotionally avoidant are now sitting on their own every night wondering about 'the ones that got away'.

TheTickingTime · 30/03/2020 23:26

Happy birthday, and well done for staying away. I am 7 moths down the line and oh man has he tried several times to real his way back in. You keep on staying strong, and high five to you

BackseatCookers · 30/03/2020 23:37

Good on you! ThanksThanksThanks

Hi OP well done for leaving the loser behind.
I assume you have children with his hence still having his number.
Best response ignore.
Happy birthday.

Happy birthday. Well done for walking away a year ago and well done for ignoring him now. My ex used to send abusive texts and frequently travel 20 miles to sit outside my new house for hours.....ugh.....still makes me shiver and it was years ago. I changed my number and got their friend to intervene.
