Did I do the right thing?
My ex broke up with me a couple months ago and he really broke my heart. I've been struggling to get over it. He's been texting me and emailing me and trying to get a hold of me but I always ended up ignoring him. I felt that it was better if we stopped talking to each other. But today something happened. He texted me out of the blue and told me he was sorry for ever hurting me and he asked for me to forgive him. This was just mind blowing to me. My ex is sort of player and never did I think that he would ever apologize for hurting me because I never thought that he really cared how he treated me. Even when we were dating when he messed he never apologized for anything. Anyway, I replied to his text(the first time that I have done this) and I told him that I forgave but we couldn't be friends or anything else. He asked me if we both could start talking to each other again. And I said no, because I wasn't ready. Which is true I'm really not, but the thing is that even when I am ready to talk to him, I'm not planing on having contact with him again. Is this right? Am I being too mean to him?
