writes: Okay guys. My question is how do you handle a guy who has been ignoring you for the past two months. He liked me but then ran away because he was in another relationship and couldn't handle his feelings.So now he is back in the picture. He just blew me off in the past even though he knew I liked him. He was always a game player and I never really knew where I stood with him and he would never say. He just took off without a word.Now that he has come around again, should I act cold towards him? Should I act friendly like nothing happened? Do I ignore him now? I have moved on since then and I don't want him to think that he can just come back and start messing with me again. I have more self respect than that.How do I deal with this jerk in a classy manner that shows him I have moved on, do not bother me anymore and it's his loss?

Completely cut off all contact with him. No talking to him, smiling, being civil...he doesn't deserve any acknowledgement from you.
This man doesn't exist for you. Period.

I would just ignore him. I was in a ldr and she did that to me to when I came back home. I would just find some one that you know that loves you for who you are don't put up with his stuff.

Before I read Caring Guy's response I was going to say the most classy way to show you've moved on is to ignore him - completely.
So there you have it from an "uncle" and from an "aunt"

Like you said he is a game player and your a toy to him. Hold your head up high and smile. Ignore the jerk, find someone that deserves you! Show him that you have moved on and he is gonna be buried in your past.
I hope this helps =)

Don't say negative things, don't backbite, just ignore them, and if anyone asks you about them, say something like "I've grown and understand myself better than I used to, and am glad that I am where I am in my life now and don't want to go backward."

You return the favour and ignore him. Cut contact - that's it. Anything else, and he'll know that you've not really moved on. Just don't make contact, and continue to move on.
