My ex (situationship) and I stopped dating a while ago. This after months of him playing games, telling me hé doesn’t feel the same and just liked having control over me. He never showed emotion and didn’t care if i ever left. I kept chasing him untill i realized how embarassing it was so I stopped.

I still had his phone and he wanted to make a appointment to pick it up so i unblocked him. We went back into old patterns and i flirted with him. Telling him how nervous i was to see him cause I still have feelings.

What i didn’t tell him is that I was in the process of slowly moving on with someone else. Who I kept ignoring but now im realizing he gives me exactly what i wanted while I was chasing delusional fantasies with my ex. I didn’t think my ex would care, cause he always says he doesn’t feel for me.

When he found out he went crazy. Telling me how could I after the last conversation. When he came over he kept touching me and I told him we cant do this over and over for hours while hé kept trying, I didn’t want to do it cause it would make me want to go back to him. It still happened and then hé suddenly got up and said hé couldnt do this and expressed regret for how hé treated me and never listened to my warnings. That he realized he has a lust problem.

The last thing he said before he left was ‘success with your new housemate (new person), you confused me’. I said if I ever knew that you did care i wouldnt have moved on.

AITAH for not telling him?
