My ex-boyfriend was being very affectionate. Why?

[Anonymous]

I saw my ex recently and he initated kissing me a few times. Not just kissing, like full on make-out. He was just very affectionate, holding me, etc. We ended up doing more than that. Anyways, we don't live in the same city and I know deep down he's over it, but why keep seeing me and doing stuff like that?

He might have some feelings for you. Did you break up because of long distance? Circumstantial break ups are the worst because you never really get over the relationship and don't know how to react when you do end up meeting

[Asker]

Yeah, long distance. He was also busy with a job he just started.

He wants you sexually and seeing how you are his ex he feels that it is a lot easier because it has been done before. My best friend has a similar situation.

He wanted sex and is familiar with you. It was just about convenience and comfort.

[Despondency]

Because you're easy and available. Why struggle with new women when you can easily fuck old ones you don't care about?

[Asker]

The thing is, I don't think it's like he completely doesn't care, because we would hang out outside of that and he seems to enjoy my company. I see what you are saying though.

[Despondency]

He dated you; the odds he wouldn't enjoy your company in any given setting is pretty low for obvious reasons if he's not bitter, and if he's over it he's not bitter.

I think he still loves you and wants you back. He's trying to make up to you, brushing off what he did to make you break up with him in the first place.

Or he just wants you for sex. Don't do it.

[Asker]

I don't think that's the case
