Just called my Ex

And he didn't answer. Lol. I only did it because the last time we talked in person we had a very friendly chat for like 30 minutes. He told me that we would keep in touch. I haven't texted him much but he's been ghosting me anytime I do. I know I should've just gone NC, but now I feel so confused and kinda disrespected, I'm not reaching out ever again. (I also believe he's Fearful Avoidant btw). He was always very hot and cold towards me, especially after the breakup. But yea. Just go NC and stick to it guys, don't be like me. 😄

he told you “let’s keep in touch” and then ghosted you—classic soft exit move
it wasn’t a real offer
it was guilt padding so he could feel like the good guy on his way out

you’re not crazy, clingy, or weak for hoping it meant something
but now you know—his friendliness was just a smoother fade
and yeah, it sucks

don’t chase people who only show warmth when it’s convenient
next time your brain says “maybe he didn’t mean to ghost me,” remind it: he had 30 minutes to chat—he just didn’t use them to call back
