Since we broke up 4 years ago he still believes that we should be together. He still tells me he cares for me and everything i just don't want to down that road again. Oh and he broke up with me. Soon as i got myself settled in a new relationship that's when he got jealous. I try to be nice but u think im just going to stop talking to him

If I were you I would stop talking to him. If he keeps pestering your just change your cell phone, your telephone no and other contact information.

wow i guess it is true you never know the value of a person until you lose him/her. well that is good for you that you have moved on and have found someone more worthy of the love you are able to share. do not mind him and you actually just have to stop talking to him if he keeps on bothering you. believe it or not it may cause you problems sooner or later.

it is another type of personality. in my life i have seen aguy like this. he was in relation with a girl. they broke up but it seems he can't just do away with her. although he was proposing to naother girl, he kept on contacting his ex on regular basis.

i think if he had broke the relation with you than theres no point in you carrying the relation again and even looking back at him, once you have moved means you dont need that person anymore. ALready you are in relation and you love someone else so you are rightly thinking that he is jealous or maybe he has no one now to be with.yeh its a good decision to not to talk and reveal about all this to your present partner so that there shouldnt be any misunderstanding.take care.

I think it's really best, if you stop talking with him. He obviously realized, too late, that he made a mistake. He seems to think that if you were in love with him once, you will be again. In fact it might be that if you talk to him he may take it as a sign of hope, as a you still care for him very much and there is more kind of deal. This could eventually put you into a worse situation if he becomes more pushy on the issue. A clean cut is very necessary in this case. Obviously he hasn't gotten the hint that you are in another relationship. I broke up with a guy once who then sort of kept stalking me and also my family. I guess he thought that if he popped up at stores and stuff that I frequent and just says hi, that I would eventually fall for him again. Kind of trying to keep the memory alive, I guess. It in fact creeped me out. I just ignored him. If unavoidable, I simply said 'hi' without even a smile and moved on. Fortunately he eventually got the hint and moved on. Here is to hoping your ex does move on as well, very soon!

This happens all the time. Usually when a guy broke up with a girl, he will feel jealous when the girl moves on and got over him. I think you should tell him it's over if he is being such a jerk. If he doesn't give up then let him chase u as long as he doesn't stalk you or be violent to you. If he does, then a restraining order would do..^^
