writes:Recently my younger brothers have taken up extra curriculars that I once was involved in during my youth; which is not the problem. As they are involved in the same circles that I once was they often come upon people from my past; most recently a sort-of ex. And recently that sort-of ex has taken special interest in my younger siblings, befriending them and such, and has now initiated conversation with yours truely. He is know successful, engaged, and still himself which is all fine and dandy. His new demeanor and desire to have a "friendship" however; doesn't sit entirely well. I was young when we had our fling, friends first and then more and then he left for college and ended it all. The following year was rough, there were a lot of tears everytime he came to visit the same circles my siblings now frequent; and there were a lot of unanswered emails and questions that I was left with. Eventually, as always, I moved on. My question comes down to this; I don't think I trust him for my own instinctual reasons; do I tell him this as he tries to initiate a relationship of sorts, or do I wait it out until he drops the ball? And do I worry about his friendship with my younger siblings? I'm just not sure if I want him back in my life.

 You are right not to want any contact with him, don't worry about his relationship with your siblings, I'm sure that will be fine as long as you don't talk to him much, just stay civil with him but do not start conversation. X
