    My ex and I share a child, therefore we still see each other. We had a few different issues. One of them being him asking a repeated question that I would have already answered. He just shocks me. It's not often but it happens. It happened just 2 days ago where he asked a question, an interest of mine, I answered him, short and sweet, and then he asks the same questions the following day!!! WTF??? It pisses me off to say the least.
    Has anyone expereinced this and who can give me an answer as to why he does this?
    My own thoughts is he just struggles to listen big time/or has no interest but asks for the sake of asking....?? Just to show he's trying or is interested is it? I really don't know. I did quesiton him but he's a guy that's in denial about a lot of things, so clearly there was no admitting to it. It's sooo frustrating......
    Any advice please??

    Have you asked him why he does this?

    Yes I did ask him. But wormed his way out of it as usual. Denial..he then just phrased the question differently...and added a question to cover himself.

    Any one with any ideas?? Or is he just completely bored with me??

    I'd say he is asking to make conversation but not genuinely interested so forgets the answer

    I'm guessing the only reason you encounter each other is your child, otherwise there'd be no contact. I'd say he's just uncomfortable spending time around you otherwise, hence the repeated questions where pays no attention to your answers. He's your ex after all. You seem to be making it into a much much bigger problem than its. Stop over analysing it.
