Ex-FWB Won't Leave Me Alone?

Anonymous
After an excruciating breakup, I asked a guy friend of mine if he was interested in being my friend with benefits. I thought it would help me deal with the pain I was feeling. Our rules were that we get tested and we were allowed to see other people but we had to tell each other and be safe about everything. Once any relationships started, our arrangement was to end.

In total, I slept with him only for a few months. I decided I wanted more, not with him but I wanted an actual relationship. I met someone online and went on a coffee date. I decided I wanted to start seeing the person I met, so I called off the friend with benefits relationship.

Long story short, I saw some comments on the friends with benefits instagram and found out he had a girlfriend. I was happy he got into a relationship too until I saw that he began dating her while I was still sleeping with him. In total, I calculated about 9 times he and I had sex while he was with her. I confronted him and he gave me bullshit responses about it. I tried to get over it and remain friends with him but every time I saw pictures of them together I felt extremely guilty and angry.

I stopped replying to texts and messages from him. He continued to text telling me to have a good day and that he hopes I'm doing well, even though he never gets responses. I removed and blocked him on social media and he still continues to text me telling me he hopes I'm doing well, etc.

Why, after knowing I've blocked him, and that I'm angry and feel disgusting because of what he did, does he continue to try to keep in contact? He knows I want nothing to do with him but he keeps bothering me. He even got a new number and texted me with that one too.
