Have you ever had a EX who just wouldn't let go?

Question

Goodness, yes, I have…. Well, I was once that ex, when we broke up a couple times and I would not let go of it. I mostly wanted closure and an understanding of what I did “wrong.” That usually led to us having a convo and getting back together.

The last time we broke up, I let go. I couldn’t keep holding onto someone who showed that they couldn’t give a crap about me. We didn’t talk for months, I moved on, he found out, started stalking me, sent hundreds of awful, raunchy, harassing text messages and calls from burner numbers.

He wouldn’t let go, and it went on for months, and I just got another text from him a month ago on my birthday. I never understood why he wouldn’t let go if he was the one who broke up with me every time because I did something “wrong,” or little things about me bothered him, etc.

Most of them. They always want a reason for it but no reason is good enough.

Absolutely.. you try to be civil about it but they still don't get the hint. They will create a fake social media profile to cyber stalk and track your every move but from my own experience I deleted my social media almost 3 years ago prior to the covid-19 pandemic which I'm thinking to myself "Finally some peace and serenity" but oh was I wrong.. Everywhere I would go (food shopping, gas station, work etc) she would mysteriously show up and try making a scene, calling my boss claiming i'm a "woman beater" I could go on and on but i'm pretty sure people can relate

Yes I have had one, it took a restraining order as she got weird with it all.

admittedly I’ve been on the other side where a girl has decided she wanted to be single, however never really discussed it and just ended it. I tried to see what happened etc, so I am guilty of sort of not letting go, for about two weeks.

pretty much always it’s been an amicable split.

Is this a problem you are currently having?

Chris_7565 · Answer

My ex-girlfriend was trying to keep our relationship going because she has abandonment issues from her childhood. She would freak out if we broke up and have an anxiety attack. She would cry and text me all night until I would agree that nothing would change between us.
Oh did I mention that she was also married at the time? That was a detail she didn't tell me until later on so that's why I was always trying to break up.

Who won't let go in what way. I must admit I've done the effort to stay in touch with my ex. I still care for her as a acquaintance.

In rare occasions we stay in touch. For example, after a year she wrote me. Probably we may not text each other any time soon or ever, but that reality doesn't scares me. At some point you gotta let go completely. If there is a mutual interest to reunite as:lovers, friends or acquaintance, it will be.

NathanDavis · Answer

nope... every time, it was mutual and talked through also, they were very mature and grown-up people... even my high-school girlfriend at the time

AndrewMG · Answer

A couple of times but not often... I kinda perfected the awkward/lets pretend we're still friends persona whilst realising we probably should not keep into contact look. lol

I have a 2020 Kia Soul EX and I do not plan on letting go of it. I love that car!

ChiTown33 · Answer

Not an ex. But I did have this woman asked out. She rejected me which was fine. But then she harassed me about it for the next 2 years. It was weird.
