FRIENDS WITH THE EX!?!?!?
| Sun, 07-08-2007 - 6:24pm |
I was with my ex, for 2.5 years. We were eachother's first love and we broke up and haven't spoken since March. Our last communication with eachother (in March) was through texting and since I was in a very sour mood about the break-up, our short text conversation wasn't so nice. I have been working to put my life back together, get back up on my feet and live my life happily. The last time we spoke in person, he said though we were breaking up he did not want me out of his life, he still loved me, and I could call him anytime. Well, I didn't call him or contact him....not until almost 3 months later in early June, which was an email that ONLY said "hey, how are you?" and he did not respond. Him and I shared a lot together, we were very deeply connected, and I don't want to burn any bridges. I know he probably thinks I hate him (which I don't)...I just want to be friendly with him, and not have any bad blood between us. We have many mutual friends, and his parents and I have kept in slight contact. He does have a new girlfriend, so that may be keeping him from talking to me, but I'm not sure. I'm not trying to "save" the relationship we once had either. I've never been in this siutation before so I am pretty confused. Should I not even try being friends? Should I not contact him again, at all? It's been 4 months since we've spoken...is that too late? too soon? I guess just in the long run, if we were to run into one another, I'd really want it to be a nice encounter, not awkward....and have good memories and things to say about my first love.

Me, myself....I'd call him. I'd keep it friendly and tell him you were thinking about him and hoped that he is doing well. I'd tell him that you hope that you can remain friends and that you really do wish him well. From there, the ball is in his court and even if you never talk to him again, you've left things on a positive note.
Good luck and let us know how things go.
