After seeing I wasn't getting no where with a friend lover from the past I decided to delete him on Facebook and take him out my contacts. He never would text back unless he needed something. So being unfriended and deleted for 2 or so yrs two weeks ago he request me back and inbox me to give him my number.

Obviously a hijacked account. It's a total stranger who will get into your computer and steal your identity and money.

Ignore him. Block him.

[lisa1471]

Is that your reason? My question is reason

Ignore him. Block him.

[smoothy]

You want a reason? Then ask HIM. But I think you NEED the drama and will probably friend him again so you can get it.

Most people want as little drama as possible in their lives. A few need it to make themselves feel relevant because they are bored in theirs.

I'm with Wondergirl. ignore him and block him.

You would have to ask him why he sent you a request. It's up to you whether you want to accept it or not.

[talaniman]

What's a reason someone request you on Facebook after you deleted?

There could be many and only he would know for sure but finding out the "facts" would require you to waste more of your time on a dead end issue. I think you already know that he just needs you as an option to ask you to give/do something he needs from you, so just keep ignoring him, blocking him, and REJECT his request and dwell no more on this issue and avoid the drama and head games it causes.

Did that answer your question?

[Alty]

The only person that knows why is him. We can only guess. So if you want to know why he sent you a friend request, ask him. He's the only one with the answer you're seeking. It's impossible for anyone, even someone that knows a person very well, to know why they do what they do.

My guess, he wants to be friends because he wants or needs something and you're great at giving him what he wants and needs. My other guess, you're hoping he wants to be more than friends. The answer lies in what you're both actually thinking.

I would ask yourself what you're hoping for. Obviously you're hoping for a meaning that will make you happy. My guess is that you won't be happy if you accept his request. He's in the past for a reason, so remember why you deleted him to begin with. Why redo something that didn't go well the first time?

They always want to keep a backup plan and drag people along.

Or he just likes to message people.

But as noted, stop worry why, stop worring or thinking about him, leave him block and go on with life

He is just kidding,
He misses you,

He don't love you but want to know everything about you,
He stalking you,
He wants to have old relationship with you,
He just want some fun,
It was just random,
Etc etc.
Could be anything. ;)
