Whats it about? How come there's no wave or anything to start communication? I had a fall out with an ex and we haven't talked in long time. Now when I see him in passing he always stares at me but when I look in his direction hell put his head down but the moment I look away he turns and glances and stares at me. I assume when he puts his head down he doesn't want to talk or me to see him so then I'm just like whatever and I look on. No dirty looks or anything. Sometimes he'll even smile to himself when he looks at me. So then I just think he's talking butter in his head lol. But I don't know it's confusing. When we were together he used to stare at me a lot but we were together then and he never put his head down like he does now. Any thoughts?

There is a chance he might think I still dislike him lol if that matters at all but I have no hard feelings towards him anymore. I just go about my business now.

* I wrote this in the Scorpio chat. Didn't get much reply so I thought I try here too*

He doesn't want you to know what he's thinking...
And he's NOT going to make the first move



Why do you say he's not going too? And if I made them move first like a smile or a wave would it help with him communicating back? It really sort of bothers me how we are now. We have quite a bit of history together and I think by now we should be able to at least say hi. The last time we talked it didn't end well. He was the one who hurt me and I'm the one who walked out. Didn't think I would see him as much as I do now and it's just weird. I guess cause we both see each other and we both it. How would you go about it?

I've been going through this with my Lib/Scorp ex any time I see him.

First time I saw him, after a little hesitation, we started chatting and things were cool.

The second time I saw him, he was doing this shit. Was baffled because of the previous encounter. I finally said to hell with it and went over to say hi. He acted like he hadn't been staring at me all night and acting weird- "HII! HOW ARE YOU!" (he was drunk) Now he was interested in talking to me, joking around, touchy feely, and hanging out around me. ...mkay.

The third time I saw him, he was even worse. Semi friendly when he greeted me, but proceeded to be all quiet and weird around me the entire night, no matter how friendly I tried to be. I just gave up because he was making me feel really uncomfortable.

The last time I saw him, he didn't say anything to me at all and I just didn't bother. He managed to say bye as he left, but that was about it. I've grown tired of this bullshit. Being friendly doesn't seem to change this and dishing it back doesn't either.

Not sure why they act the way they do, but you can't help but wonder, so I can relate. Maybe because of some semi unresolved things, or underlying emotional stuff on his part. Maybe because I wouldn't be his fwb. Who the hell knows. Guys are weird with their emotions.

I totally understand your curiosity though. It's really wtf worthy. I'm at the point where I'm still semi curious as to why, but overall, I'm fricken tired of it and mostly have stopped wondering and quit trying to be friendly.

Guys are dumb and get upset when their dumb behavior bites them in the ass.

The way you have this worded, it becomes logical to assume that you two pass each other all the time ...

Normally, when people break up they don't pass each other, like ever ... because it's a big world and the chance is slim to never that you see a person you don't want to see in passing because people actively remove themselves from situations in which they might see the other


I guess in your case, you could use a different hall to walk down to get to your 10th grade high school english class .... that way you wouldn't pass in all the time, so you won't have to be compelled to notice if he notices you.
