Help! I have to talk to my ex today...
Find a Conversation

So it's been a week since my breakup, and I'm generally feeling really great about it. I've reconnected with a lot of people in my life, spent time with friends, and had marathon talks with my family. I even met a boy Saturday night (I know, I know, purely rebound material.) The problem is this...
When my ex and I finally broke up last week, we decided to do NC for a week so that we could get some perspective and have some space to heal. That was last Monday... so at some point today, we WILL have to have contact. I wouldn't even talk to him, but we live together here in Michigan, and he's spending the summer in Aspen, and our lease is up the day before he comes home. He doesn't know any of that yet, and I have to make arrangements with him so that I don't get stuck doing any **** for him.
My concern is, I just don't want to get caught up in anything... I don't know what he's feeling, although my guess is that he won't beg for me to take him back. I think if there were ever a time for that to happen, it would be when he comes back. Should I just send him an email and tell him the situation and ask him not to contact me unless necessary?
This is all so hard, because we were the best of friends, and now we're supposed to be strangers... I know that it's the best way for me to heal and get over him, but it just goes against my heart and my instinct. I have so many decisions to make for my own life, I just really don't want to be distracted by him and talking to him.
I would love any advice you might have!
Sarah
