    Why does my ex ask if I'm okay? How should I respond?
    About a month ago, my boyfriend told me his feelings for me were "complicated." He was married for 20 years, and his wife cheated on him. He hasn't had a real relationship in the 15 years he's been divorced. He said the idea of a relationship "scares the hell out of me."

    He sent me a message two weeks ago, saying he felt bad about the situation and was sorry. I asked him what he was sorry about, and he said he didn't want to change anything; he just felt bad.

    Lately, he's been commenting a lot on my Facebook statuses. I've pretty much been ignoring him, and I've been dating someone new, although I still have feelings for him.

    Earlier this week, I got a bogus e-mail from his account with what might be a viral link. I sent him a message and told him he needed to change his password. He replied, saying he was sorry. He asked if I was doing OK.

    Why does he keep interacting with me? How should I respond? Should I respond?

    Of course you should respond. Can't you be cordial with him?

    Yes, I can be cordial, but I still have feelings for him.
