My ex bf keeps calling me with a private number and hanging up when I ask who is at the phone. Why is he doing this?

He was the love of my life. Unfortunately at the time I realized that no matter what he did to me - it was difficult to leave him. He complained about my studies/my career. I use to model and he would always say I looked silly or that it was unprofessional. I snooped because I thought hw would change/miss me but instead he is dating another model and supporting her (something he never did for me after 4 years). On top of this he tried to defame me in front of his and my friends so that I would remain isolated and alone. Luckily some time has passed and I am starting to forget. But the calls bring up past memories and it hurts (even though I did the right thing) @Northwest

@Sensitiveheart Did you see a professional for help? It sounds as if you were dealing with a control freak, and you still have open wounds. You cannot change him, so you need to stop snooping on his life, and hoping that he might change.

This man probably never loved you, not in the true sense of love. Putting you down, is a strategy control freaks use to keep you attached to him, and thankful that someone like him, would want you, despite all your faults. By making you feel inferior, he also diminishes your social circle, and makes you more dependent on him, emotionally.

You may not believe it now, but in time, and with help, you will realize that that feeling of "love" you have for him, is closer to being a victim of the Stockholm Syndrome.

You need to break out of this cycle. Call a therapist and stop snooping.

Because I used an app that unmasks who calls you and it’s him@Quizzical

@Sensitiveheart I'd block the number then if you can
