How do I restart communication?
| Mon, 01-05-2009 - 10:50pm |
My boyfriend and I have been together for over a year. He had been living in a different country for five months when one night I called and asked what he thought of our relationship. Looking back I probably could have done it better - I was stressed from grad school and from not seeing him. He wasn't calling me as much as I was calling him and so I felt ignored I think. In any case I think I made him feel pressured in defining our relationship. He told me he still cares for me and wants to be with me. The distance is a challenge on our relationship. After that call he decided that we needed a break. It's been two months now and I haven't yet heard from him - he had said he was planning on visiting the US this month. I want to contact him. Is there a way to do it without causing more damage?

Generally I don't think it's always necessary to wait for the guy to call first, but in this instance I think since he wanted the break you should let him be the one to break the silence.

Let's say that you decide to wait for him to be the first one to call.
