My ex of 5 years who broke up with me a month ago and moved out of our apartment e-mailed me today after 1 month to ask if there is any mail for him since he is waiting for a Fed Ex package. Keep in mind that he hasn't returned the keys to the apartment or the mailbox yet, and I don't know where he has moved to (I am suspicious that he staying with one of his friends in our building but keeping low key). I responded with a one liner saying you have no Fed Ex, if I get it I will leave it at the front desk (we live in a high rise building with a reception desk). I also asked him to drop off my keys & garage opener at the front desk. He responded with: "Will we ever talk again?" I responded with "talk about what?". He just replied: "we can talk about anything. I understand you need to heal as do I, but I wanted to reiterate that I would like us to be friends!".

Can anyone give me some inside here? What does this mean? What do I do? Why can't I stop crying now? I miss him so much.......Please help.

Hi maribella,

He just wants to be friends. The email might have just been about testing the waters. Your emotions are normal. Hearing from him has brought it all up again. Keep moving forward. Have a good cry. Journal write. Hang in there.
