hanna,

Usually it is the receiver of the bad news wonder why the giver of the bad news does not have the courage/respect/kindness/awareness to communicate in person rather than via text/email/social media/silence. I wonder if the roles were reversed that it would be any different. Almost everyone have an adversity to communicate face-to-face or even via phone anymore, much less in delivering news that may involve confrontation or an adverse reaction.

The way it was left was that you two essentially broke up. Right? The question is not what does he want from you. The question is how do you move on? He did not approach you to restart the relationship. He is being a “friend” via social media and text.

If all that upsets you then communicate that directly and decide whether you want this relationship that is casual and not in person. If he wants more then it is up to him to communicate that. Right now this is a non-relationship. If you really want to help your emotional self then move on.
