My ex and I have a 7 yr old daughter together. I unwittingly was his mistress when we were together. He told me he had children, but that the relationship was over. A BIG LIE. After I found out they were still an item, i broke it off with him. Long story short, he has provided very little support for my daughter over the years. I settled into a relationship while my daughter was still young, and this guy has been really terrific with her. She calls her biological father her "Stepdad," and her stepfather is Daddy - although she fully understands how this all works. He calls from time to time and my daughter enjoys talking to him. My question is, after all this time, why am I still flattered at his advances?? He married the woman he was dating but they are currently going through a divorce. He has been calling and telling me he still cares about me. I am not dumb enough to believe him, I just don't understand why I even still entertain his conversation, or find it flattering.

i think it is maybe an ego think. it is always nice to have people tell us they like us, love us, find us attractive. it does not necessarily mean you would seriously entertain the thought of getting back together with him. it just means that you are flattered by the attention.

You two shared the most intimate of moment together and because women are such sensual creatures we long for those same feelings. They will always be there no matter what.

I think you are still attracted to your ex because you are still in love with him or maybe you are still attracted to him because you guys have a daughter together. Think about it

Because you never stop loving someone. Its hard not to be vulnerable to a person that you've loved and lost.

its because, at one point in time, you loved him, or had strong feelings for him, then still tend to come back

You still care for him for sure and maybe love him still.
