Help me decide what is going on

I recently got back in touch with a boyfriend from years ago and we’ve chatted for a months very casually and not in a boyfriend/girlfriend kind of way. Just catching up type of way. We’ve had some messages about meeting up and he always says let him know when I am around the area where he lives. I then suggest some times and he doesn’t reply. He then sends me random instagram reels after ignoring previous messages so just feel really confused why he suggests meeting up and then doesn’t seem to want to. I just don’t know why he then keeps messaging. I thought maybe we would consider starting a relationship but then assume he’s not interested as ignores messages and I just leave it and he then sends me random reels again. Just wondered what others thoughts were about it. Slightly messing with my head!!

You're giving him the power to mess with your head and he's keeping you on a hook.
Disengage.
He is an ex for a reason.

He's enjoying the attention without having to engage.

Write him off.

He's probably not single.

He has a girlfriend and you’re the entertainment when she’s out or asleep. Drop kick this one to the kerb.

That’s fairly unanimous then! I’m clearly being naive here. Thanks all for the honesty and clarity!
