My ex has started following me again

My ex started following me on social media multiple times, and honestly, this situation bothers me. I had cut off all ties with him, but this is making me think. What do you think, why is he following me again after all this time? Could there be a reason?

Not again, enough already.

how many times does it unfollow and come back? is it always the same pattern?

@kahvebitmeden did this two or three times, the last time it happened was a month ago.

@aklimkaldi I think you should just ask this directly, let their intentions be clear. It can’t go on like this forever :woman_facepalming:

Such cycles usually indicate an internal reckoning, but if you’re feeling uncomfortable, consider throwing a barrier. It’s also important to be wary of social media manipulation :face_with_peeking_eye:

Maybe they are doing it to show that they can’t forget something, but instead of silently following up, they need to address it openly. Blocking is a last resort—why not draw a clear boundary with a direct message first? If they don’t back off, then you can consider that.
