my ex unblocks me on snap every few months so i’ll add him and we talk for like a day or two and then he blows up on me or is like “idk if we should talk”. if he doesn’t wanna talk why does he keep unblocking me knowing i’ll eventually see and add him

Or, crazy idea…block him. That way whatever he does you won’t see.

honestly, you’re right. i will. but still like is he just teasing and wants attention or like does he still think about me and wants me to reach out and that’s why he unblocks me? either way, blocking him rn! i’m done w it

Block him and be done with it. If you’d like to talk in detail about it feel free to DM me. You clearly have some type of attachment issue. As to where it stems from is a deeper discussion.

This is an example of cognitive dissonance with a tendency towards choice-supportive bias. Basically you want your past decisions to engage with him to be validated even though you know it didn’t work. This creates an internal conflict in regards to what you want your next decision to be.

that makes sense. i keep thinking about it, but i did block him and plan on keeping him blocked. i think its best for both of us
