Why would an ex feel the need to delete your number?

[Anonymous]

Like what’s the reasoning? I wasn’t even hitting him up and he was the one hitting me and you then he decided to delete my number?

[horatiohornblower]

Because it’s over. Why leave a contact you have no use for?

[Asker]

Why not? I have so many contacts and exes but I don’t care enough to delete them

[horatiohornblower]

I purge old contacts. By contact list is already bad enough. No, need to keep stuff I don't need. As that just means more time is needed to sort through. I clean up my contacts about once a year. Any old ones I no longer need I get rid of. I also merge any duplicates. But my phone is also my business phone. So, it gets loaded up with contacts.

Probably to help himself move on from you, he’ll delete your number so that he’ll be less tempted to contact you again

[Asker]

So you’d assume that means he has feelings still?

[Opinion Owner]

Possibly, but seems like he just wants to move on

[FilmGuy93]

Seriously? Because he wants to end that chapter of his life and move on.

[Asker]

Yeah but I’ve ended plenty of times not feeling the need to delete a number. It doesn’t bother me to keep a number in my phone if there aren’t feelings ledt

[FilmGuy93]

Evidently he feels differently.

[Browneye57]

If he's an ex why do you even care? What are we missing here?

[Asker]

Because I want to see him again and he wants to see me

[Browneye57]

Why? What's the point? It's over honey.

[Asker]

But he wants to see me?

[dudeinohio]

It is appropriate for an EX to delete numbers... the relationship is over.. time to move on.

[Asker]

But it’s also kinda not over either

[Rainbowdash_999]

Because his not over the breakup
