So I've done my 30 days (over 30 days now) no contact after my ex ended it.
His choice to end it after 16 months together.
I've reflected on the relationship and ultimately he treated me pretty poorly, his communication was awful, very avoidant, alot of emotionally manipulative stuff and gaslighting - he ended it due to me asking basically for bare minimum (communication, time together and to make me feel like I was important to him - not just forget plans and not turn up unless I reminded him - yes really) and overall I've done pretty well, still feel rubbish about it at times and can't stop going over little things in my head....but he ended it and he told me to leave him alone - so I have...
Around day 23 onwards and at random other days of no contact he started posting whatsapp statuses, picture meem type pictures with words along the lines of "it hurts when you have someone in your heart but you can't have them in your arms " and " just because I let you go doesn't mean I wanted too" basically sad break up quotes.... there have been 6 in total... all soppy sad break up quotes implying he misses me thinking of me and loves me - I just wanted to get opinions on what the hell is his game here? I can't stop thinking about it and it's driving me insane - I didn't react and didn't break no contact I remained silent - but why? Why would he post these?
What do you guys think?
