Most of the time, we leave them alone and move on to the next one. However when they come crawling out of their little hole and decided to reach back out to us.....How do some of you react?.. A. Do you greet him and exchange plesantries like nothing never happened between you too....B. Do you give the cold shoulder and dont respond at all?(After all, he did dump you) or C. Do you bring up why everything happened between the both of you...(After all, you really never got an explanation.)...Ladies these are feelings that Im pondering about as I am experiencing the above situation....Part of me wants to be mature and take the high road and be cordial to him like nothing ever happened between us and wish him well...while the other half doesnt even want to respond(Like the way he treated me). Dont want to seem 'pressed", but at the same time....i feel no closure......Ladies feel free to weigh in on this....Need some guidance.

He has already shown you how he will treat you.
I would be polite but totally brush him off. Asking him what happened will only feed his ego - don't give him the satisfaction. Act as though he were any other acquaintance who you have no intention of getting to know better.

My advice might be different if he came back to you with a full explanation of what happened and request for forgiveness, but to show up and act as if nothing happened shows a remarkable lack of respect for you.

Don't go there!

Well I wouldn't let him go crawling away without an explanation in the first place. I do not care for wishy washy people that don't know how to communicate.

But dealing with the situation you are I would not even bother to respond. Not a point really.
He dumped you. So....stick with that and move on.

Thats true - but u can understand not wanting to come across as being bitter......Yes, given the way it ended....it is a hard pill for me to swallow...but by being bitter towards him, does it really solve anything?....

Did he actually dump you (did he say I don't want to see you anymore) or did he just ignore you for awhile? There's a big diff.

No it doesn't solve anything. But the opposite doesn't really solve anything either unless you care what that person thinks and are entertaining the idea of their return.

He's been ignoring me for about 2weeks......I texted him hoping everything was ok...but he never responded....Don't want to put myself out by overtexting....but sometimes it doesnt take a rocket scientist.

Sometimes txt doesnt go through. If he had a blackberry there was an outage a bit ago.
