Never communicates anything to me before he disappers.I couldnt take this anymore when he disappeard this time. He called me 4-5 times now, i didnt pick up the call. Cause if i talk to him i knowe would convince me that im the one which thinks/acts im-maturelly. I want to break up with him, but i cant do that in face/call since he is such a manipulative smooth talker. Please advice how to handle this. Reply to this Question Share |

Block his calls, delete your contact info with him. Change your number if it's really necessary.
However, if you must talk to him to get him to stop, here's a little fable. Socrates, famous for his persuasive skill, was imprisoned and about to be executed. He tried to persuade a guard to let him go free. And the guard simply did not listen.
No one can persuade you of anything if you just don't listen. The only reason he might succeed is because you let him. No matter how much "sense" he makes, ignore him.
