facing this with ex. last 2 months she kept 'communication' but the her-way rule.
Never clear, You need always to guess what she's saying, or better, what she is not saying. If you point to specific communication you want get clarified, she will maybe say, can we see each other to talk about this? But this is only postponing to a meetup that will never happen.
Upon last Saturday, I asked to face me with her reality. Again, avoiding, keeping the line, literally "maybe you don't understand what I'm saying" as you narrow her possibilities with you.
24h later she posted a picture on her Facebook (as profile pic!) with her new 'victim'.
I stop communication. Sure she will pop-up again when she needs ...
This has for me nothing to do about being girl or not. This just having disrespectful toxic relations with people and is not linked because female.
As I look backward now to my relationship with her, she spook often badly/negatively about people she had/have a close relationship with (new friend of her mother, another ex, her sisters).
If I look back, also in the relationship, the communication with her was always unclear. Actually, she doesn't communicate. She takes, and she leaves.
Good luck new boy with that ego you need to spoil.
