My ex texted me about my car accident

Author

About a week ago I got into a car accident because of bad weather, I was okay I was more embarrassed than actually injured, my ex has been texting me because... I don't even know. He accidentally "texted" me once, and then he texted me a happy birthday text, which both texts I ignored and then last night he texted me telling me he saw photos of my accident and that he hoped I was okay, and like an idiot I fell for it because it tugged at my heartstrings that he even cared, so I texted back. And now that he's not texted back I feel like an idiot that got duped.

were you hoping for closure or just a genuine check-in?

A genuine check-in I think? I purposely made it a point to not tell him because I knew that the split was too fresh and I was going to be in a world of hurt if I didn't get the response I wanted.

it sucks but try to remind yourself that a text doesn’t erase the past. focus on your healing first, not his little check-ins

Yep! It doesn't erase the pass, I've cut off all means for him to contact me at this point. :)

my ex would randomly “check in” and i’d immediately spiral. it hurts but it’s NOT your fault for caring

You're not an idiot. You're human and have emotions. He only saw the door to take advantage of.

You've seen enough, block him on everywhere.

I hope you recover well and that everything goes very well in your life.

Yep, I just blocked him everywhere. Get out of my life and stop torturing me
