My ex and I have been separated for around 5 months and we are in the process of splitting up the home. I own half and I'm going to buy him out as I have lived here for 15 years. Yep, silly me let him buy half. Anyway that is just part of the story. There has been a great deal of anger on both sides. In the last few months I have started working again and very happy with my situation and back to my happy relaxed self. Now this is the thing - I had a phone call the other day from him stating that he was just was wondering how I was. I was short with him. He then said he missed me. At this stage I know phone sex was on the agenda. He wanted to know how my body was. Is it still the same??? A big red flag when up and I said I have to leave for work and cut him off as quickly as I could. My mum is very sick in hospital which he knows. I then get an sms message for me to tell her that he hopes she will pulls through because he really cares. I think this is manipulation. I know he used to do this to an old girlfriend that he left behind in Sydney when he went in London. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

He is very good at knowing how to push my buttons.  I always felt sorry for him with his ADD and Depression.   I feel I was taken advantage of and the love I gave him.  He has done this before not once but twice and the is the third time.  I don't think I can do it again as I'm more sensitive than he knows or wants to know. I have alway been the one that was told not to be so emotional.HELP HELP HELP

How do you feel about it? Usually, when two people seperate, they tend to go back for sex and/or comfort from an ex because its comfortable for them. Ive been guilty of that myself. If you are happy and have moved on then take it for what its worth and be flattered. However, if you think there may be a chance of reconciliation, you might want to revisit your feelings. When you come to your decision, I would have a talk with him and let him know how you feel. Honesty is always the best policy.
