I split up with my ex because he would make the most stupid excuses not to get up and get a job. He made me miserable and sometimes left me to cry, giving me the silent treatment. He would sit around using my wifi to download films everyday for him and his mate who also just sits at home doing nothing, betting and smoking. He also never said sorry when he accidently trapped my daughters hand in a door or taking a pillow from behind her making her fall back. He'd call me thick and say I owed him money in our last argument and that he'd sleep with his exgf before me if he had to if he was lonely.
Anyway after a few days he said he didn't mean any of it and that he feels mean. He said he wants me back but I said no, I'll talk for a bit as friends but that's it. And so we've been texting everyday just asking how our day was and what we've been upto etc. But he brings up that he feels sad and has been keeping busy to keep his mind off us but is glad we're talking. Is he using me til he finds someone else? Or waiting til we get back together? Which will never happen.
