That was 2 days before my birthday.
That was my birthday.
I reminded the Brit that in our last conversation he said, "Our relation really didn't have much going for it. We had a few good spots, I suppose. I just want to move on and let the memories fade. I want no contact with you. I don't want to hear from you again."
He'd have to explain how he went from that attitude to actually emailing me.
"I've been thinking about a lot of people," he said.
He bragged that a lot of men are envious of how many boyfriends he's had. I chose not to ask if he told those envious men how many of those boyfriends he dumped and why.
I told him the arthritis I developed after October 2018's fall has had me in chronic pain for over a year and that it changes a person.
The Brit said it was probably best to say goodbye at that time. I told him I still hurt from how he treated me and that he should share our correspondence with someone, perhaps a friend or counselor, to see how he felt when someone else learned, in the Brit's own words, how he behaved.
He said "This was a mistake," then goodbye.
