After few phone calls, I told him I couldn't continue contact with him as I felt very uncomfortable. I asked him if he's still seeing someone now but he never replied. So I figured the answer was yes. Then I told him again to leave me alone. It takes a lot of courage and really hurts to tell him to go away as I still love him so much.
After about a week of no contact, he started emailing me again. I never replied. Few days ago I got an email from him and he sounded very depressed, mainly due to this job. I hesitated for awhile and then replied few lines to cheer him up. A day later I gave him a call as I was worried. But he sounded very cold on the phone.
I don't quite understand why he still contact me. He knows I wanted him to leave me alone as I was quite hurt from the break up. He has a gf now. I just couldn't figure him out. Why does he still contact me? I don't know what to do anymore.
