    What does he mean by sending me this message after he broke up with me over a month a

    My ex-boyfriend has not initiated sending me a personal message in the month since he decided his feelings for me were "complicated" and sent me a breakup e-mail (referenced in the link to my previous post below). He has forwarded me a few humorous/political e-mails. And lately, he has been liking and commenting on several on my Facebook posts, especially in the last few days.

    Today, though, a month after the breakup, he sent me a private Facebook message: "For what it's worth, I feel bad about the situation, and I'm sorry."

    I have been trying to maintain no-contact, except for one time I slipped up. Other than that, he hasn't heard from me. I did I ask about getting my stuff back, also referenced in my previous post in the link below. It's been over a week since I asked for my stuff, and he still hasn't contacted me about giving it back. The main thing I want is my photo books on local history.

    I've been staying busy and my Facebook profile shows it. Today I updated my profile with a great photo, and I'm fairly certain my ex saw last night that I checked in with a guy while on a date, the first time since he broke up with me. My ex also knows the guy. I know for a fact my ex isn't seeing anyone.

    Here is my original post for background info: https://www.womens-health.com/boards...ent-phobe.html

    Why are his intentions in telling me a month later that he feels bad, after he sees, by all appearances, that I'm moving on? What does he want me to say to his message? How should I respond? Or not respond?

    People do hold guilt sweet. With time, the reminise and remember why they went out with you. He is saying that you are a good person, didn't deserve him in my opinion and that he is sorry if he hurt you.

    He is also lonely, in my opinion and his time of facebook is reminising and that is why he reads your page.

    Some "people" want their cake and eat it too...

    They always want to say bi, but don't like it when you get on with your life, they feel like they lost, it's an ego thing. Keep getting on with your life.

    I would say to him, " you made your choice and that's fine, I'm getting on with my life there is no malic, nothing to be sorry about. Thanks for the occasions email, I find them interesting or amusing when I get a chance to look at them.

    PS, I'd like to drop by and pick up my books on Wednesday, what time can you leave them at the front door for me, if you are not home?

    I think by stating this, you are saying you are not hurt, thanks for the communication, you read it when you can, not immediately, you are leading a busy life, moving on and oh by the way, I have set a date, that you can only change to another day, there is no option with that comment.
    PUT A LITTLE 'LIKE' IN MY SOUL!
