Aquarius ignoring where is the line drawn

Needed to take a month no contact from Aquarius ex as I found his actions really hurtful when we ended although I fell very hard and tried not to think about him. I was admittedly the happiest I’d been in awhile as he played games with me around Xmas - messaged him for his birthday and he immediately replied calling me beautiful saying he had been thinking about me and said he was tired but would message first thing next day - 3 days later nothing (never has he done that before) so I said it was a shame and I guessed actions speak louder than words .. no response, so I said if he didn’t answer I guess it meant he wanted nothing to do with me and I would withdraw permanently. Still nothing the next day so I said I guess I shouldn’t have expected him to care and I would hope he didn’t want me to walk away meaning in a friend capacity but the heart was involved.

had just been through a family death when being with him and had told him I was moving overseas with plans in a month so expected Some form of dialogue and I got a message saying he had stuff going on but “promised!” to message me the next day - still nothing 2 days later

I’m not sure what to do walk the talk and disappear permanently or give him the benefit of the doubt he has stuff going on

To @promise” To message and not seems very confusing and my pride feels shattered I feel myself hurt again and once again questioning his actions - I can’t work out if it’s the Aquarius “ things on his mind”, dating someone else or trying to give me the message

I feel I can’t have any contact if he’s going to do this as it hurts too much and I would be better to distance altogether and ignore him, but I don’t want to be selfish if he is processing ? I’m not sure if this fits the Aquarius dismiss please get the message ?

They can be very stubborn.

Why does he keep postponing text responses? Sounds like he is playing games or he has moved on and is uninterested.

You need to ask him. They are usually upfront and direct about these things.

If there is something he is processing, then he doesn’t feel comfortable talking to you about it?
