Unfortunately I see him around campus. He keeps messaging me once a week. I personally don’t believe exes should be friends. What’s the best way to close this off? Should I give an explanation or just ghost him?
and he was the one who broke up with me because he “wasn’t ready for a relationship”

It's understandable that you may feel uncomfortable or unsure about remaining friends with your ex, especially if you feel like he's treating you as a backup option. Ultimately, the decision to continue a friendship or cut ties is up to you. If you feel like you need closure or want to explain your feelings, you can choose to have a conversation with him about it. However, if you don't feel like it's necessary or don't want to engage in further communication, you can choose to simply ghost him. Regardless of what you choose, it's important to prioritize your own well-being and do what feels best for you. If seeing him around campus is difficult, you may want to consider avoiding him or taking steps to minimize your interactions. Remember that you deserve to be treated with respect and dignity, and it's okay to set boundaries and prioritize your own needs.
I agree with @jasondaman ‘s opinion. I will say though, I hope you’re able to get it through his skull that you’re done and that he’ll back off so you don’t have to avoid him for long, you have the right to walk anywhere on campus you like, but if he turns into a nutjob, have a friend walk with you.
