I accidentally texted my ex, and he didn’t reply?

Question

So, I’m pregnant. My ex is the father. He broke up with me. We only text about the baby, only about updates like if he wants a copy of the ultrasound. And the texts he sends me are one worded like “yes” ‘no” and “k”.

I took a photo of a post it note with the answers to a test for a friend. In the background, is my feet and I’m wearing some cute wedges. (My ex has a feet fetish) it’s relevant because instead of sending it to my friend, I accidentally sent it to my ex. I sent the photo and then said “these are the answers for the test”.

I noticed my mistake after five mins. And I texted my ex and apologized and said I didn’t mean to send him that.
He never replied. Usually when I text him about the baby like ultrasounds, he replied within a minute. It’s been like 40 mins and he hasn’t replied with at least a “k” or anything. Is this a bad sign? Or what could he be thinking? Like is he annoyed/mad?

If you want him to care then it’s bad cuz he’s like literally taking you at your word. You accidentally sent him a text. He doesn’t see the need to respond.

I do want him to care. What do you mean “literally taking you at your word?”

I mean he literally understood that it was a mistake and he doesn’t see a need to respond. Think of it as complete indifference.

I’d assume that indifference is a bad thing.

If you want him to be interested in your feet then indifference is bad because he doesn’t care. If you want him to be interested in the baby then his non response means nothing

So he probably recognizes you did this on purpose and now thinks you’re desperate. But he’s not mad it’s just a text.

I didn’t think the text was super obvious. I sent the answers to a test on a post it note. But my feet came out in the background (like I said, he has a foot fetish) so I was hoping for a reaction out of him.

Then I apologized and said it was meant for someone else.
