My ex girlfriend broke up with me, I started to ignore her. Now she sends mixed signals. Is she interested?

Me and my ex have a son together. We had been together about 3 years our son is 2. We have been on and off but the last time we started working things out everything seemed really good. This last time she broke up with me saying that her mother who before approved of our relationship now disapproved because she said "I would eventually just get tired of her and cast her aside and hurt her". The reason for this is because her mother and father just separated. Her Father didn't like me because I worked for his company but quit for a better paying job and which were I felt I could advance and not owe him anything. Currently I work full-time and attend school full-time. Her father dislikes me thinking I will never amount to anything because I quit working for him. It's also important to note my ex-gf (babys mother) works for him and he uses that leverage to put pressure on her to not be with me. She had been resisting listening to him, but now since her parents separated the mother seems to think I will do the same thing her father did to her. And she told her daughter that. Anyway she broke up with me about 3 weeks ago. This past weekend I found out she had been texting another guy (I had been trying to talk to her about things to work it out) But ever since I saw she was talking to another guy I immediately stopped and just started no contact. I only talk to her regarding our son and nothing else. It seems that now that I pretend not to care she starts sending mixed signals, whereas before she would just completely blow me off. One example is yesterday I talked to her on the phone about vacation time with my son and she brought up out of nowhere that I "jump to conclusions about people" and that I "always think the worst about people". She was referring to this past weekend when I found out she was talking to another guy and possibly went out with him. (After that I decided to stop talking to her about our relationship or lack thereof and just kept it strictly about our son) So when she said that to me I just responded by saying "I just want to talk about our son, nothing else and that whatever she did over the weekend is none of my business and that I didn't care what she did". She became upset and said "whatever" and hung up on me. afterward she called me again and apologized about another issue concerning our son and she seemed bummed out but I didn't take the bait, I said it's OK she didn't have to apologize and kept my cool. So now my question is, I feel like she is sending mixed signals or is starting to feel the effects of me just completely ignoring her. I feel as if she's trying to tell me she's not talking to anyone and that I'm assuming and am wrong. What should I do? Should I keep ignoring her until she wants to talk about the relationship? I'm at a point where I'm OK moving on. But I honestly still care about her and love her. I would love to be a family we do have a son. But I need to make this stand. Any help would be appreciated

she just hates rejection. she wants you to be moping over her and calling her nonstop. The moment you stop doing that she feels rejected or thinks that you may have find someone who is more interesting than her. you should ignore her and start hanging out with more female friends

you are playing your cards right,and she probably isn't seeing this other dude or she wouldn't go out of her way to tell u..keep ignoring her and when you talk to her keep it strictly about your son until at some point she will crack and want you back,stay strong

O_O; -__________________- *sigh* if you want to be with her then you should work it out because you want to. It WOULD be nice if you could because you have a son but that shouldn't be the main reason. You should want to be together because you love one another.

Mandydandy is exactly right. She doesn't like feeling like she's not the most important thing in your life.

You have two options: 1. ignore her. or 2. make her your booty call.

Actually, you have a third option: be a chump and put up with it.

It sounds like she's still interested, the problem is that you're still broken-hearted about everything. I would suggest for you to step back and create some space for a couple of months.

Yeah you're right. I feel the best thing to do is just walk for now.
