Search Results: ex wants me back

OK let’s talk about pros and cons.

Pros:

- I hate leaving the house
- I work from home
- I only want to date Arab guys and Arabs are not the majority here
- I’m bored (yes. That’s a pro)
- I met one of my exes on an app before

Cons:
- My ex was weirdly obsessed with his mother (although he was very very good looking tbh)
- So much ghosting!!! (My poor self esteem)
- People say a lot of these guys are married
- There are a lot of weirdly sexual guys on there nothing wrong with being sexual but there’s a time and place for it. Don’t tell me you want to suck my feet the first min we talk
- Rejection (I know it’s part of life but I got rejected a lot because of my religious beliefs and once cause of my looks)

My ex and I went through a lot of fights. Regardless, we managed to make it work because of our strong emotions. Just before our breakup, it reached a point to where he was calling me names and bringing up my family, basically no respect left on his part & coming at me for little things like me saying “thanks” instead of “thank you.” I blew up on him eventually & mentally checked out. 1 day we got into a fight and he said he’d block me (something he does when he’s mad). I then accepted some requests from guys- i was really mad-on social media (didn’t message them and deleted them later. He found out and hell broke and also found platonic msgs between a male friend I’ve known for 5 years. Those msgs included funny memes. I stopped being friends w/ this guy for him. He asked to check my phone, I didn’t agree because he should trust me & wouldn’t want him to think it’s ok to check my phone whenever he feels the need in the future. We ended up breaking up. We kinda kept in touch though to reconcile. Weeks turned into months leading up to us meeting in person. As we were chatting, he told me his expectations which included he checks my phone, I agreed. Then he asks to see my male followers to ask how I know them. I told him some are friends (since HS) and he didn’t like that. He said he doesn’t like his girlfriend to have male friends & I should take off whoever he doesn’t like. I had a reaction and didn’t let him check my phone so ofc he had major issues. We never got back together but now we’re surfacing the relationship again he told me of the same expectations. I’m really conflicted and don’t know if getting back with given expectations are normal or not. Is getting back a good idea?
