My ex (21F) keeps coming back before exams – confused about her intentions (I’m 19M)
Body:
I (19M) was in a 1-year relationship with my ex (19F). She broke up with me a month ago mainly because of repeated mistakes: I didn’t give her enough time/understanding, even after she explained what she needed. I admit I was at fault and have been working on myself.
But recently she unblocked me twice – once before exams, and now again just before my last two exams. She:
Messaged me about my health and exams.
Shared long personal voice notes about her own problems.
Extended the conversation politely as if nothing happened.
Meanwhile, she also said she’s happier single, doesn’t want a relationship, and doesn’t believe in love. I’ve been replying shortly (“hm”, “ok”), but she keeps the convo going.
I’m stuck between hope and confusion. On one side, it feels like she wants to keep me in her life. On the other, her words show she doesn’t want to come back.
My questions:
-
Is she being friendly, or testing me?
-
Should I also start conversations, or just keep it polite?
-
Am I wasting my time hoping she’ll return?
TL;DR:
Ex broke up with me (my fault), but keeps unblocking and reaching out before exams, acting friendly while saying she doesn’t want a relationship. Not sure if it’s genuine care or mixed signals. What should I do?
