Question - (24 February 2011) 7 Answers - (Newest, 3 June 2011)
A age 30-35, * writes:

Ok so, my ex (not the classiest fellow at the best of times) just sent me a picture of his junk on facebook, with the message, "miss me?".

This definitely seals my decision NOT to get back together with him. I thought of replying and kind of calling him on it, but I'm not sure which would be more effective in getting the message across that that's really lame: calling him on it, or ignoring him completely?

Which do you folks think would work better?

(He's kind of dumb, so he's not really one to pick up on subtleties. Theres a reason we broke up)

OhGetReal agony auntWhat a tool. Ignore or send him a photo of a really tiny violin or a magnifying glass and a peanut next to it. But if he's too dumb just forget it.

iloveblue agony auntI agree with everyone.

Ignoring is always better than replying even if it's a negative reply. Believe me, replying to him will make him feel that he got your attention and will know that it works. Ignoring him will make him feel like you don't care at all to even say anything, like he doesn't matter at all to you. The silent treatment is more matured too.

dirtball agony auntLMAO! Yeah, report and block. Don't acknowledge him. Even a negative response will just encourage him.

The slightly evil part of me says send it to everyone you know - because after that there's no way he'll bother with you. However, since the evil part of me is less than 1%, don't do that.

The rest of me says for you to delete it and ignore him entirely. I think if you message him, he'll know he got to you and do something like that again. So ignoring him is the best option. If, however, he continues like that, keep the files and call him on sexual harassment or something.
