Do you just disappear?

Long story… please don’t judge! Not what what I’m looking for.

Reconnected with high school sweetheart almost 2 years ago… I was in a vulnerable place and didn’t even know it. Lots and lots of emotions resurfaced that I didn’t know existed.

We are both married. No interest whatsoever of anything long term. I honestly enjoyed the play. I know that sounds bad. But calling it as it is. It made me feel young again.

Fastforward…. It’s been tumultuous to say the least. At first I was demanding and needy… didn’t realize it… but I was. Just kinda on a sexual high… wanted to play. Long distance.

Anyway… things have way calmed down… but I think he’s just a mean guy. I’ve backed away for months. We met midway one night and had a nice connection about 3 months ago. I don’t text or call him. And he just goes silent for no reason after bouts of daily texts…

I get it. No longer interested. Fine. Moving on.

On Facebook… we have like 70 mutual friends… he likes everyone’s posts but Mine! Why???? We’ve been nice to each other. I’ve made a point to like a few of his random posts just to see what’s up. He still ignores my posts.

Last week.. I sent a nice text… saying I know we’ve both been super busy but would love to catch up soon. He replied he definitely wanted to. That we had a lot to catch up on.

Next day I let him know when I was available… needless to say… we haven’t talked… but I got a random text Tuesday night him apologizing for being unavailable. That he really wants to talk to me. I didn’t reply. I deleted him from Facebook. There’s definitely something underneath causing him to treat me differently regardless of my attempts to remain friends….

So I’ve just gone NC cold turkey. He has no clue. I’m done with the games and rudeness. Is that how it’s done?

I’m sad bc I had really hoped we could remain friends. I guess some people just can’t be normal.
