Recently ended an angry abusive relationship with my spouse. Managed to find a friend - someone who I connected with several years ago. I think in my excitement over ending the very bad relationship and finding him, I scared him off. Too make a long story short - we are no longer speaking to each other. It has been two weeks. I would like to start over. Let him know that I am not an emotional wreck - just excited to have him in my life. Would it be inappropriate to send an I am sorry bouquet for Valentines Day, after a no response to a telephone call and letter? I feel as if I ruined a great opportunity. What should I do?

Personally I think flowers would overwhelm him yet again. Maybe just a "sorry" card that says, I know I should have handled things differently, I was overwhelmed by my own feelings. Wish we could start over."

Then the ball is in his court. Don't call or contact him after that.
