Ex boyfriend messaging me

Hi. So just wondering what you guys would do in a little situation I’m in.
So my ex boyfriend from 14/15 year ago has started messaging me nearly daily for the last fortnight, he’s always kept in touch sometime s not for 6 month and others just every now and again, friendly how are you, screen grabs of Facebook memories. Occasional remember this, but he can get a bit flirty to which I remind him of his wife which he protests how happy they are, anyway. Lately the messages are daily. How’s your day, doing much at the weekend… silly things to start a conversation. he’s married with kids as am I. It’s a platonic relationship but it’s nice we can have a friendship considering out break up was really hard and I dare say if it wasn’t for his family we could of lasted but I’d had enough and even he admits they played a large part of the break up. But anyway, would you guys ask him why all of a sudden he’s contacting me daily or just leave it? I don’t want to come across as ‘why are you messaging me lots lately’ when he could just be taking a general interest in what I’m up to and maybe I’m thinking too much into it but I do think it’s a bit weird

I disagree but hey ho. Let’s be kind to each other

Kind to each other as in going for a pizza and drive through Costa cofee, sitting in the car with your ex whilst his wife sat at home.

That is kind.

Did you both tell her how kind you had been, I'm sure it would have helped their marriage enormously.

I bet not.

Well he was planning on leaving her as he was not in a good place after the death of our mutual friend, I’ve been told that I saved their marriage so yeah. I think taking time out to check on a friend was ok in that situation
