Ex boyfriend

Hi y’all i feel like i can’t talk to anyone else so I’m hoping you ladies can help a girl out with some advice. So i dated a guy for awhile and i quite honestly thought he was the one. I was madly in love and there was just that spark that i had with him. Well i broke up with him over the fact that he started to lie about smoking weed and it was affecting the relationship a lot. Well he broke up last June, yes LAST JUNE. And every month he has been checking in on me and seeing how i am and what not. (The reason being is during our relationship i had a lot of family problems and i was super depressed and had a lot of anxiety) it’s been really hard for me to get over him and i know he cares about me still but it just hurts sometimes talking to him. Well when he does his monthly check ups we have a 2 hour conversation and then it’s done. But however the last time he kept talking to me for a matter of days and it was weird because he started to show his charm and flirt which i thought was so strange. But now i feel like an idiot because i sit here and wait for a text back. I just don’t know what he wants. Does he want to be friends? More than friends? Is he trying to get back together with me ? I just don’t know and I’m unsure if i should just cut off all communication or see how this goes. He was my first and only boyfriend I’ve had and at the time that we were dating my mental health wasn’t right but I’m doing so much better i just don’t know if it was the right person but wrong time or I’m just getting myself stuck in a situation that i shouldn’t be in. Well let me know what you all think !
