Your ex isn’t gaming or testing you. They don’t want you to suffer. They don’t have GIGS. They’re not confused. They just don’t like you.
Why did my ex take three days to respond to my text? Why didn’t they pick up the phone when I called them afterward? They were active on Facebook just a minute ago!

They didn’t even bother apologizing for being a no-show.
Are they playing games? Yeah, that could be it. They still like me but just don’t want to make it too easy to get them back. They’re probably afraid I won’t appreciate them as much otherwise.
Or are they testing me? It could also be the case, sure. Maybe they want to make getting them back insanely difficult to see whether I cave and become desperate or not.
But what if they want me to suffer? Nah, they wouldn’t do that… right? Perhaps they just suffer from some mental health issue or the Grass Is Greener Syndrome.
Maybe I’m overthinking things. Maybe my ex is simply confused about what they feel towards me. Perhaps the breakup hurt them so much that they don’t even know what they…
