A female United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

So I recently started seeing an old flame from the summer... long story short, he ended it with me to be with his ex. Then him and his ex didn't work out and now he's been single. He had been contacting me for a while again and I finally agreed to see him. We saw each other for a short period of time during the summer so I didn't hate him or anything for ending it with me. The thing is, when he ended it with me, he deleted me off of facebook. I thought that was weird because 1) he ended it with me, 2) we had a great connection 3) when he did end things with me, he felt awful. He knew I was a sweet girl but he still had strong feelings for her and 4) he also deleted my friends who had became friends with him when we started seeing each other. It was really weird.

So anyway, when he deleted me off of facebook, I thought that was kind of extreme. (Was that really necessary? Especially deleting my friends too?) And after things ended w/ his ex, he never friended me back. When we did see each other again, I brought it up and told him 'Thanks for deleting me by the way' and he chuckled to himself. Later on, on the date, somehow facebook became a topic. He said he would friend me but I told him not to bother since I don't go on it anymore. He thought I was lying, but it was the honest truth- I've been too busy with school and I don't have time to procrastinate on facebook.

Anyway, the date went really well. But like I said, I have been too busy so I don't see this is going anywhere right now, but I'm still confused on why he acted the way he did. Advice from a male's perspective would be nice =]

He went back to his ex, and to make things work got rid of everything that reminded him of you. That's the reason. But think about this. He was with his ex, then split with her, then came to you, then split with you for his ex. And now he's back to you. Facebook is the least of your problems. I'd be more concerned about why this guy can't commit to you. How long until he goes back to his ex or someone else?

I agree ask him, but my guess would be that he didn't want any of your friends to get back to you what he was doing socially or who he might be dating...he was dating his ex at the time and didn't really want to rub it in your face on facebook....I am not sure why people get so hung up on facebook and what it means when people delete them, whatever, who cares?

Why do you care?
