...why? You need friends that badly? Move on.

Then I'm back at square one. I'm not a glutton for relationship pain anymore.
I think the fact that you realize this means you know it’s time to move on from contact. You don’t have to be a dick about it, just stop initiating contact. You can speak when spoken to, but don’t drag it out, and they will move on to someone who gives them the level of attention they are looking for and you both move on.
It’s easy to get nostalgic about past relationships sometimes after time has passed, but anywhere you have been with an ex you can be again, and if you’re not comfortable with that level of intimate possibility then you need to cut contact.

interesting that he admits something is off in his relationship and notices the texts from his ex tempting him.
perhaps, OP, in previous situations when an ex has texted you while in a new relationship, maybe you were happy with that relationship at the time and didn't think of it as a tempting text.
it could all be about perception.
Very valid point.
When a man is sated other dishes don't look as tempting, but the hungrier a man is the more enticing other plates look.
It's our nature I guess. More options makes I harder to stick with the one you have at the moment.
It's all about how strong the bonds are. Attraction waxes and wanes and unless the ties are truly binding they aren't much use at all.

Just started a fresh relationship a few months ago.
Not very public, just enjoying each other without the bull shite judgements of others.
Still, ex's of days past are jumping down my bones like I'm going out of style tomorrow.
It's some form of Pandora's Box type shite. If I open it, I'll regret it. Which I've learned from.
I normally stay cordial with ex's..happy birthdays, check in every few months, but nothing out of my way.
What gives? Seems every relationship I get in this happens..are females innate with some ability that I'm unaware?
Why don't you just stop whining?

They can see you are a pussy and yank your chain for entertainment.
Stop falling for it.

Well, Alex.
I'm guessing you text your exes a lot more when you are alone. The texts fell off when you found someone, and they noticed.

When you are dating
###1 rule don't look back
2. Use a trac phone you and give out that number
3. It was hard when I was single to remember chicks names just try to have a system in place or dance around it
4. Always move on and don't look back.
You can think about it but don't do it!!!!!
5. If confronted by crazy chick make up a believable story why you have not called her.

Why do you speak to your ex’s at all? Seems weird to me

But still, what the frick? Should I just cut off all contact with ex's? Be a huge dick and deal with short term consequences as opposed to long term?
Probably. What purpose is there in keeping them in your life? You won’t be good friends. All it does is dredge up memories & complicate things.

You "check in" with your ex's and send them happy birthday texts? Your fricking weird.

There's no explanation for that. But it's 100% proven and true.
Just gloat in the fact that you could get all the poon if you wanted it.

Know what's fricking worse? When an ex says "k bye" then won't leave you the frick alone. I don't want to see you leave me the hell alone

Happy Birthday, Merry Christmas or heard through a mutual acquaintance you landed a new job, good luck...
I don't think any of those are overboard when engaging an ex. It's just being nice and sincere.

I understand, doesn't mean you have to cut all contact.
Some people grow apart or have different desires going forward.
Last ex wanted to be married by the end of this year. I politely declined and wished her well on her way out. No ill will towards her, she had a different plan than I.
Just saying not all relationships end with each party wanting the worst for the other, as the OT likes to believe.

It's not hard to think it through. Woman dumps you thinking you're nothing special, woman sees you with another woman and goes hmm did I miss something, woman tries to find out if she missed something while also ruining another woman's happiness as a pure bonus, rinse and repeat.

IMO I think that its being creepy and stalker-ish. Shows me that you somehow cant get past not being with them. I wouldnt be to accepting of the fact if my ex's kept on texting me. frick all that noise.
