Unblocked after a year, social media games

My ex and I have been broken up for a year. We work in the same building. I told him not to bother me again a year ago, he stuck to his word.
The back story is he was going through a divorce, he strung me along and blew hot and cold. I asked him if he loved me and he said he couldn’t just now and he physically rejected me. I ended it.
I still have feelings for him, the relationship lasted two years, albeit I should have ended it a lot sooner.
I havent made any contact in that time, I have been pleasant at work when I have to talk to him but rarely have to cross paths at work other than walk past one another.
The past few weeks I’ve saw him at the corner of my eye staring. But I ignored this.

Out of the blue on Saturday night he pops up on messenger. He unblocked me. He hasn’t said anything at all. He keeps turning off his active status I think so I can’t see when he’s last on but so he can come and peek at mine.
If I’m online he suddenly appears then disappears quickly, he’s also made his Facebook totally private, deleted photos and everything. Strange behaviour and I’m not sure what’s going through his head? It doesn’t make any sense to pop up randomly after a year, but keep avoiding me.
I would block but I’m worried he’s wanting to say something or wondering if he’s harbouring feelings? I’m not sure I want to block yet.
One thing for sure I won’t be chasing him or making any moves as I’m still scarred from the rejection.
I don’t understand. He could be bored?
Maybe he sensed I was moving on and didn’t like that and has returned to ruffle my feathers?

Why do you actually care?

Move on! He’s a game player.

He's bored and fancies a bit of attention/ego flattery. Block to the moon, these twats can sense weakness.

Think your last sentence is correct. His ego is dented because he thinks you are over him. He might be planning on hoovering you back only to block you again.

Yes the fact you have moved on has dented his ego. Unblocking you is a way of boosting his ego. He thinks that you will contact him now you are able to. Block him from all social media and forget about him and his games. You deserve much better
