Why does my ex keep blocking and unblocking me?

I broke no contact. The last time I spoke to my ex was through a friend nearly two weeks ago. since then he has been blocking and unblocking me on social media and has called me twice to see if he’s blocked. I noticed he blocked me again on social media the other day so today I couldn’t take it and wanted to see if he blocked my number too and he did :( i’m so confused why does he keep blocked and unblocking me. The last message he sent me was that he hopes we could reconcile in the future and that he will always be in love with me, if that’s the case how could he block my number so I can’t even get in touch with him….

treating the block as my answer, even when their words said something different, because i needed something solid to hold onto.

it may be hard but i'd say, just leave, block him, it's dumb & childish from the point of what hes doing

girl don't go thru this, i've been in this thing for more than a year, got out of it a few months ago now, they keep doing this cause they don't want you to move on & also they do really love the attention from a lovesick puppy. don't get into this too deep & try to get rid of the attachment, i finally let go & i'mma just say, i'm the happiest women as i could be.

I know that’s what I should do but I still wish the best and want to be amicable in the future so I can’t bring myself to block him but it hurts so much knowing he blocked me

has he actually done anything that showed he wanted to reconcile, or has it mostly been those messages followed by blocking you?

well he sent that message and I never responded and he hasn’t tried to reach out again except the calling to see if he’s blocked

i had an ex who kept blocking and unblocking me too, and every time it happened i thought it meant something had changed. all it really did was keep me stuck, waiting for the next notification.

yeah I agree I feel like i’m constantly checking to see if he will unblock me. I don’t understand

you deserve someone who doesnt play these mind games with you. you should block him permanently and try to move on

I know I agree but I don’t want to block him because I still really care about him :(

yea I couldn't do that. dont let him treat you as an object he can pick up and put down when he wants.

I don’t want to but I don’t know what to do. when he does unblock me or call me I don’t engage or say anything

@CoolBreeze388 take actions into your hands. Block them until you're in a better emotional space. I know its hard. but better to have calm and rational contact when you are ready then emotional contact
