confused by how hes acting - April 21st 2011, 05:06 AM

What makes a guy still want to contact you after he is in a new relationship with a new girl. My ex keeps trying to contact me and wants to talk/be friends. I dont get it...im moving on and considering he has a new girlfriend why would he want anything to do with me? I refused to see him so I dont know what he needed to say.

There are many reasons he could want to stay in contact. Part of him may still miss you and he feels keeping in touch will somehow help with it. Or, he's feeling unsure about letting you go and worries what will happen if he does. He could genuinely want to be friends and care about you on a platonic level and no longer on a romantic level. Or whatever happened between the two of you has him feeling badly and he wants to make sure you can "end" on a good note.

But if you're wanting to move on and don't want to talk to him, that is entirely your choice and hopefully, he'll come to respect it.

if you dont like him no more then dont bother trying to rekindle that relationship. dont let him try and weasle his way back into your heart. if you know what you want tthen go for it. but dont be rude to him. he was once a part of your life.

Is it possible he's telling the truth and wants to be friends? Yes. Is it possible that he may have romantic feelings towards you, regardless of being in a relationship? Yes. You need to consider all aspects and think that maybe he feels bad for what happened between the two of you (whatever that was) and wants to make amends and be friends. Don't just assume he's doing it to lead you on. Lot's of guys want to continue with a friendship with their ex-girlfriends, and I myself have continued long friendships with guys I have dated in the past.
