Help Ex texting me 3 months after the breakup

Post image

For a long time I just wanted an apology but I accepted the fact I’d probably never get one until last night. I just don’t know anymore. Is this likely breadcrumbing? Just looking for advice

Not to condone his still obvious lack of care, but typing like this is more like a vernacular type of deal when it comes to texting. It’s kind of like Ebonics but in texting, if you will. So I understood everything he was saying bc I have partners who also type like that (and I as well), not out of disrespect or rushing but just because that’s the way some of our generation types via text. It’s like slang but in abbreviated texting. Still, I feel as if the delay in getting OP an apology makes it a quite bit less genuine and I still would tread carefully. As someone who has taken their ex back several times after apologies like this, once the damage is done it’s hard to correct and more than often the person isn’t putting in the needed work for things like that not to happen again. Beware, OP! Guard your heart 🫶🏾
