For me, its best to end all contact with the guy. Its best for me emotionally, mentally and spiritually

Meh...I have a few I keep in contact with, but its just a once a year "Happy Birthday" on FB, or once in every six months, a "hey, whats happening?" No biggie, because I have made it clear, that I "am very happily married."

if more people followed your ways of thinking, maybe there would be less people going back to their exs while in a relationship. I only have 1. Relationships of any kind except for friendships n commitments scare me

It shouldn`t scare you, if you stay "in control."

Not really. After we broke up we didn't talk at all for a couple months, then one day she contacted me and we texted a few times, then she suddenly decided that she hated me and stopped, then the other day (like a week ago) she posted a picture of a cute dog on my wall (she knows I'm a dog person) and that's pretty much been it. Meh.

She drinks too much to do that.

Unfortunately my ex wife still contacts me. Couple weeks ago it was about the dogs. Yesterday it was about me being a firefighter again. Nothing of real concern to her.

Because of her and another I changed phone numbers. The other was bitching about to me changing my number then wanted to text me... I said nope, ain't gonna happen.

Noooo.

Tried it, several times. I've posted before about how it seems the guys I've dated can't accept simple facts/rules - 1. we had a relationship. 2. it's over. 3. we can be friends. 4. i don't want to sleep with you or talk to you every day, don't ask me to call you when i get home to "make sure I'm ok".

My facts/rules seem straightforward but so far they have only worked with one of my exes. I do genuinely care about people, and i think they mistake that for wanting to get back together? even if i never initiate contact.

I've had the same issue with females lol.

And most of my exs ***** themselves out for my attention. Major turn off.
