Long time, no text WTF?
(BTW: im a girl also) There's this girl I met in 7th grade 4 years back. We knew each other through our friend and exchanged numbers. So when I moved she was the only one I stayed in contact with. We would text each other about our days and stuff and what happen in our lives/school. We would barely call.. we only called like 2 times but it was kind of awkward.. well to me because I was shy and didnt know what to say. We texted for 2 years.. and I guess we started growing apart. And I guess we were getting older to (were about 15 now, we both turn 16 in the same month). Plus I think she changed her number. So about 9 months later (today) she texts me and say that the number she sent me is her new number. So I'm kind of shocked right now.. because I'm already over her. And I'm scared to text her or call her again because I'm shy and I don't have any friends now. Plus shes long distance
Texting someone you haven't seen in awhile?
I guess we are similar when it comes to texting, but man, on one hand if you like her ask her how everythings been and stuff like that (care for her) and then ask her that kind of stuff like would you rather this or that, but don't make it too interrogatory... On the other hand, if you don't like her, treat her well and ask her how's she's been but let her know you are not interested (don't make her feelings grow... if you know what i mean).. soo yeah, good luck man, make it interesting for you both but start slow, its been quite some time
Why is my ex texting me so soon after our breakup?
My ex and I had been together for more than 4 years before he broke up with me. It has only been a week or slighty more than a week after our breakup but he is already texting me and having casual conversations like we did in the past. At the breakup, he told me that we would never be able to work out our relationship because he has no feelings for me anymore but that we can be friends later. Why is he doing this? Is he just trying to be friends like he said?
Should I text my ex gf and straight up say “do you still like me?” We mutually broke up a month and a half ago. It was me who pushed for it but, I seem to care more.
Hindsight’s a real bitch, isn’t it? If you “pushed” for the break up, then she may have indeed been the one who “cared more”, but has since moved on. If you must re-engage, then I’d suggest opening with “how sorry you are, and what a mistake it was” versus “do you still like me”, which is far too easy to just reply to with a “No”. She needs to SEE that you’re sorry, and will be miserable without her. If you’re flippant about it, and try to be cool, then there’s nothing to attract her. Work for it. Good luck.Edit: for the love of all things Holy, DONT TEXT HER. Look her in the eyes and say this, if you have any respect for her.
I am missing my ex-boyfriend. Should I text him?
No.Get busy with your life.Make goals.Make new friends.Travel.Do what you love.Spend time with your parents and friends.Learn a new skill.But don’t let your past eat you out. I know its easier said than done.And I know how hard it is to miss someone. And how hard it is to have loved and lost. But you have to.HE broke up, not you. If he realizes that it was a wrong decision(like you are thinking right now), he would have already contacted you. If he doesn’t think so, you will only hurt yourself once again trying to talk to him. It might even turn out he already found someone. You said you felt free when the break up happened, I am sure this yearning is just a moment of weakness. Don’t let it make you do anything desperate.You don’t need to hang on to something that the other person already gave up.Move on.If anything is supposed to happen between you and him, it will. If it doesn’t happen, something better will. Explore who you are, improve yourself and rule the world. :)
My ex responds to my text messages with one worded answers. Does he not want to talk to me?
I do agree that you should try to move on however, I do not agree with how these people are saying it. Yes… you should move on but when people say “Have enough pride in yourself” really… come on! Good thinking guys say the most generic and common thing people say after a breakup.I would assume he didn’t always find you boring, if you guys had a meaningful connection and a good relationship I imagine you still really want him back. I think you should work on yourself for the time being, try to stay positive! You have done a month of NCR so I applaud you for getting through it, did he contact you during NC?If yes that’s good, I would recomend backing off a little, try to start slow and gradually try to build up an attraction. Maybe after a while you can move into phone calls then meeting in person. If you meet in person try to be interesting and confident, again dont feel the need to change for him. If you want to change for yourself I totally support you, with that being said good luck!Ps. When people say “move on” and “have some self worth” I always get angry… you cannot help what you feel, they make it sound so easy to move on. Relationships are about compromises and making certain sacrifices for the other person (to an extent) unconditional love is not real. If people want to be in the “honeymoon” phase for their entire relationship then they aren’t really ready for a serious relationship. Work at it, dont give up yet, don’t make him your primary train of thought but keep him in your radar.Thanks for the interesting post and good luck!
Why hasn't he texted me after I gave him my number?
No one can tell you why he hasn’t texted you. The only person that can answer that question is him. But here is my take on the commentsI really like this guy and he gave me several signs that he's into me too (staring, winking, flirting). After months of him not making a real move, I decided to ask him if he wanted to hangout sometime. He said yes so I gave him my number on a Saturday. It's Monday now and I haven't heard from him.First off, forget about signs. People see what they want to see. Maybe he is interested in you, maybe he isn’t. But, staring and winking will never give you that answer.Next, you asked him to hang out. What does that mean? Do you want to spend time as friends? Do you want to go on a date? Do you want to spend time with him in a group setting? Saying that you want to hang out does not tell him that you like him. I hang out with my friends all the time.And maybe he is interested in you and is worried that you didn’t really mean it? I can’t count how many people I have told “we should hang out” to never have it happen. If you want it to happen, text him and ask him out. And ask him out clearly. Tell him you would like to go out on a date with you and come up with an idea that you want to do with him.If you leave it to other people, you will never get what you want.
Ok so my ex texted me... should I tell?
The other day my ex from a long long time ago sent me a text to see how I was doing. I'm married and my husband is deployed right now so he doesn't know about this. My ex asked me if maybe we could hang out or see each other somehow. I told him HELL NO! I told him again that I was married and that if my husband even knew that he had texted me again while he was deployed, he would probably want to kill him. I would never ever cheat on my husband, because he is Absolutely everything to me. What I am asking is.... is it ok to tell my husband later after he's been home for awhile or should I not tell him at all. I don't know what to do..... I know I didn't do anything wrong but I don't like to keep ANYTHING from my husband. Please help!
Ex-boyfriend texted me "Hey how are you?!". Why?
He’s reaching out to see if he can hook up again. He enjoys the new situation of not being commitment to you, but still having you around when he hasn't been getting any elsewhere.It's good you didn't respond. Any communication from him right now is all about trying to keep you hooked. He'll say things like how he misses you or how important you are to him. What he means is that he misses sex and that's important to him.He's been embolden by the weeks that followed the break up, when you did hook up without commitment. So I wouldn't be surprised if he tries harder to get your attention, and feed you lines that sound like he's offering commitment and love, without actually being any of those things.Beware of “I miss you”, “I've been thinking of you”, “we should hangout”, and compliments like “you're special to me”, and “you're my best friend”. They all sound like he misses having a relationship with you, but none of those things actually say he wants to get back together or give you any form of commitment.The best thing you can do is continue no contact. It's not rude or mean. Sometimes people need to have a clean break to move on. This is about what's healthy for you. Any of your mutual friends, who are actually your friends, will recognize that if you explain it to them.
