Why did my ex message me on a dating website?

Question - (25 April 2011) 4 Answers - (Newest, 25 April 2011)
A female United Kingdom age 51-59, anonymous writes:

HI All, Some insights would be welcome please!!I split up with my ex sometime back, but we have still kept contact. I went out with someone new for around 7 weeks, and did not contact my ex, then called him up to see how he was after I ended it with the other guy. he would not take my calls, and was not returning my texts.

I was a bit upset, but understood that he had moved on and respected that. Anyway, me and my ex met on a dating website which I decided to rejoin last week. I put new photos on and put' seeking a new relationship' on my status. I viewed my ex, and he immediatley sent a message saying' New photos..... very nice; and a wink. I was not sure how to take this, and thought he was being sarcastic? It threw me off a bit, especially as he was ignoring me for so long, then popped up with a message like that.

I still have feelings for him, but have been trying to move on. Anyway, I messaged back saying thankyou, and I hope you are enjoying the sunshine?, and that I was away ( which I was) and have heard nothing back. Was he being sarcastic after ignoring me all this time? it's thrown me off a bit, and I don;t know what to make of it, as I thought he had moved on for good after ignoring me. I am not going to change my status, but am a bit confused as to why he messaged at all on the site?

Hi Drew,

Thanks for your answer. Yes, it's a website where you can see who has viewed you - so he would have known. I was just a bit surprised he messaged at all. I thought he might just look andthat was that. Not sure why he had to do that and let me know he knew?

Drew21 agony auntIs this a website where you can see who has looked at your profile?

He probably just saw that you had looked at him, and sent a message to let you KNOW he knew.

I would stay away from him. Forget about him. Block him. It sounds like you still have feelings for him, but it doesn't look like he's interested.
