Hi, So I was commenting here a lot and kind of disappeared oneday, Sorry! So here is what happened after that. I came to the states and i let him know that i was here and ever since then he started to initiate the contact and flirt and wanted to see me. So i flew out to where he lives and we saw each other and had dinner. We didn’t have the “talk” though. He was supposed to go on a business trip for a month the next day. And after that night he’s been cold. I tried to make a conversation and he would be just cold to me. so one day i insisted we talk on the phone and I said ” after i saw you i was hoping we could have the talk, but because you were not very responsive i think id rather not talk to you ever again” and he said “yeah..maybe thats best for both of us. We’re just going so different ways in our live” and then he wanted to hang up so he could go to bed. And later on i accidentally saw his snapchat story where assumingly he was sharing a dish with someone. and that evening I blocked him on Instagram. What was weird was he blocked me back that night which means he’s been stalking me here and there because otherwise how would he have known that i blocked him. Anyways Ive done NCs too many times and its been almost a year since the breakup and a month since the last time we talked(which didn’t go very well). So whats my game plan here??? Thank you!!!!

My ex and I broke up a bit over a year ago after a year and a half of dating and over 8 years of knowing each other. We had had one small breakup before but everything was back to normal. The week before we split, he was telling friends I was the love of his life. Ultimately his insecurity and lack of satisfaction with where he was in life caused the split as he seemingly imploded out of nowhere. He claimed he had no idea what he was doing and that everything was so intense and he kept asking why I would even want to be with someone like him . We didn’t speak for six months after the split, during which time he had a rebound relationship, which was very uncharacteristic of him. I worked on myself and my new job.

We started talking again near the beginning of the year and have kept it going on-off since (using the texting rules!). We’ll talk consistently for weeks at a time until he seemingly gets overwhelmed or scared and backs off. But then he’ll pick up the conversation again a few weeks or a month or so later. We finally saw each other once for drinks and it was clear all the feelings and chemistry were still there and he kept saying he would come by soon to see my new place. We both traveled over the entire summer and didn’t talk much until he started grad school a few blocks away from me and moved into the same neighborhood. We picked up talking, this time more than ever, but he backed off again after saying school was insane (he’s at one of the best in the world and by all accounts the first semester is brutal).

I’m glad we talk and glad we’re seemingly ‘friends’ but I feel like there’s a lot more still on both ends but neither of us are confident or active enough to make the big steps. He was always extremely passive or even shy about making big moves throughout our relationship because of his insecurities. I wasn’t sure what I wanted but I think I do want to be back together. How do I make this happen after all this time and with all this talking? Is the talking bad or is it a good sign? And how do I make him want to pursue and want to set up time to see each other now?

Hey, I need your help with my situation. My ex and i broke up after a huge arguement about 6months ago. Since then i dated a guy for three months i think the best word is rebound that im not happy about because i want my ex back. We havnt spoken much in those 6 months and after asking for some of my things he blocked me from calling (im only blocked from calling) i texted him last week and he replied i was so excited and things seemed to be on the right track. Then i texted again but he went silent. He has been silent since and i must confess i did send about 4 messages since but silence. Did i mess up? Do i still have a chance?

Hello-
My ex-husband and I met March 2011, engaged October 2011, and married April 2012. We were married for two years. I moved out because our fights were getting worse. He proceeded with the divorce after I moved out. Fast forward to April 2017 and he emails me that he’s been thinking about me. We exchanged emails for a bit before agreeing to meet for drinks. We had great conversation and ended up making out. He emailed me that night and I told him that if we were both happy, let’s keep it that way (at the time I had just started seeing someone and I thought it was going somewhere). I called him this past weekend and we chatted for an hour on the phone. I’m realizing I want him back (I haven’t pinpointed the reason yet), but I don’t know what the plan should be.

He asked me if I was in a relationship. That’s how we got on that topic. I didn’t ask him, he just volunteered the info. But now when I initiate texts he doesn’t seem that interested. Should I back off and do NC? I have no clue what to do now. I did wish his daughter a happy birthday via text and all he said was “thank you.”

OMG EBR team, so he texted yesterday and HE initiated the text…basically to let me know he had work this weekend. We made small talk and I joked around with him. He said he’d touch base with me again soon.
I am getting nervous cause this means, my nudge text had an impact on him. And it also means your strategies work!!!
I’m so anxious about getting this right this time that I am going to read up on everything I can for that first date!

Hi, my ex and I are 22 and both go to different colleges, but meet in our hometown every year during holidays. We broke up 2.5 years ago because we were together for 5 years (high school + beginning of college) and felt like we were and old couple, not much in love anymore. Since then we see each other with our group of friends from high school in our hometown and also met a few times just the two of us. Every time we meet is the same: he tells me how beautiful I look and that I’m a cool girl, but that he doesn’t feel love for me, just attraction. It’s like the emotional connection we had is broken.

I accept the fact that we might never get back together, but since we broke up we both dated other people but never found anyone with whom we connect as much as we did. (Yes, we talk about our dating fails together)

Since we are both attracted to each other and still have fun together when we see each other, i would like to know what I can do to get our emotional connection back, because when we see each other we mostly just small talk and can’t get to know who the other one is now.

Update: I took the plunge this evening and used the text to reach out to my ex . It was very positive! He even asked me out for a drink! He’s done that before tho and then not followed up, although this time seems more sincere. We shall see what happens. Thanks EBR!!

July 25, 2017 at 9:26 pm

Wow that’s excellent advice, I can view it as a flaky moment. It’s a positive to me that he was receptive and texting and the fact that he asked me out (even tho it may not be real) is a positive step to rapport. Thanks Amor !

Hi, I have written about my situation on here before. My ex sent me a genuine apology text about 3 months ago, the day after Valentine’s Day , and after we had no contact for 6 months and prior to that he had broken things off. He’s a very stubborn and proud guy so the apology is a big positive for me. However I recently put two and two together in that 4 days after his apology, an acquaintance friend of mine who knows him randomly texted me to “see how you’re doing and maybe we can get drinks sometime.” I had a weird feeling about it as she hasn’t texted me for 2 years. Then , 3 weeks ago she texted me again asking me a pretend question about something and cleverly asked “are u dating?” Which she had never asked me before. I answered honestly and said I wasn’t as I was focusing on other things now .
In the past my ex had the mutual friend who set us up to monitor if I was dating others or not .. but I have since cut her off. So my question is if this person asks me if I’m dating again what’s the best way to answer? I thought of saying “I just started dating someone,”. My concern is that in the last year and a half my ex buys time when he figures out I’m not dating someone and stalks . I have other clues he’s keeping tabs on me . I do want him back but I’m not sure what the best approach is ? Thanks

Hi!
I found this article really helpful but Im not sure what I should send my ex to initiate conversation. I was thinking about using snapchat instead of texting to start off because it seems a lot more casual and snapchat is where we first started talking originally before we dated. I haven’t had a conversation with my ex in over 6 months. He dumped me about a year ago for some kinda shady reasons (nothing too clear) but we seemed to end on good terms and during out relationship we were each others best friends. He only really reached out to me once after the breakup but that was 2 months after it happened. Ive improved myself a lot and Ive really been making an effort to show that though posting stories on snapchat to be the ungetable girl the best I can. Ive been waiting for him to reach out for about 2-3 months now but he hasn’t so I think the only option I have left is to reach out myself but it worries me because since he’s the one who broke up with me he’s had most of the power since the breakup and I don’t want to seem like a pathetic ex girlfriend. Should I reach out to him through snapchat or should I just continue to wait and see if he comes to me? If I do snapchat him what should it be of and say?? Thanks!

Hi! so the other day i finally reached out to him and to my surprise he seemed to respond really well. He was asking me a lot about what I’ve been up to and what I’ve been doing and also told me a little about whats been happening with him. I was pleasantly surprised by the conversation. The only things is now that I have that initial conversation out of the way I’m not sure where to go from here. At the end of our convo I made an excuse to leave and statement mentioning talking again sometime and he responded to my having to go but didn’t give any response toward my mention of talking again. Overall the convo seemed really positive though. Its been a few days since that convo now and he hasn’t reached out to me and Im wondering when I should reach out to him again. If he was responding so positively to me in our convo why does he still not initiate anything with me…or am I expecting too much too soon?? And how long should I wait before reaching out again? Thanks!

Hi! My ex and I dated for a year and a half and he broke up with me 9 months ago in July. We started talking this month and hanging out again. We acted couple-ish for a month (cuddling while watching a movie at his place and dates/activities but no kissing and no sex) He kissed me on the forehead and on the cheek. Anyways last week we hanged out and he said he didn’t want a relationship with anyone and that he likes how this is going (our friendship) and that maybe one day that would change. I didn’t react that well not only because that day I was in a lonely and depression mood (personal life) and also I’m not as in love with him anymore but there is still some feelings and care for him at this point i’ve grown reattached in a way. He was also my first boyfriend and first and only sexual experience. We saw eachother again the same week and I told him I felt the same way (that I want to be friends too) and that day was a bad day that’s I acted that way. I said that because we have a lot of fun together and it would be a shame to not have him in my life anymore he makes me happy and laugh a lot We always had a great friendship during our relationship but we broke up because of communication problems and fights. I’ve noticed that he talks a lot of having sex with me (I thought he was joking) but I have told him and he knows that I don’t have sex with anyone until the tag boyfriend is there – my golden rule (that’s why also I had no one after him) But I saw him today we went out and then watched a movie at his place. Things got a little heated up without kissing but I stopped him before he could go further and before that we were cuddling during the movie. When I stopped him we started cuddling again and he didn’t want me to leave he wanted to watch another movie but i told him it was getting late and I had to leave. He said he missed me while cuddling and that he is still really attracted to me. Now my question is he just using me for sex and emotionally? or is it something else i’m really confused. Oh and also He didn’t have anyone after me either not even sexually (I confirmed it with a trusty friend of mine and his) it surprised me. And we talked, before he said he didn’t want a relationship, about how this time we would communicate more and not do the same things in the past so past issues won’t come up again and he talks a lot about me in his future and future actives we can do etc. Anyways i’m super confused and I want to know if he’s lying to me and telling me what I want to hear or if I have a shot of getting him back at least in the future not right the second I know it takes time. He compliments me a lot. Help please!

HI Maya,

he might have feelings but he doesn’t want to commit and instead of doing that, he’s aiming to be friends with benefits. Good that you don’t want to sleep with him.. You need to avoid being alone with him for now.

Lauren

May 24, 2017 at 8:15 pm

Thank you Amor! Thank you so much!

Oh sorry I didn’t explain, this was a while ago when he was still really bitter when he said he was with her (& when I was so needy) and just by how often he looks at what I’m doing and the fact he replied the other day tells me it’s not that he doesn’t want anything to do with me.
Since I messaged him with that compliment he’s now always the first to see my snapchat stories (I’ve been posting a lot cos I have a fun new job)

My question is if he doesn’t go to this event should I reach out or should I leave it for him to come to me?

EBR Team Member: Amor

May 27, 2017 at 1:37 pm

regarding the event, leave it to him if he is coming or not.. better not to ask.. if he comes, use that opportunity to build rapport.. if he didn’t, you can reach out and use the event as a topic but don’t make it like you’re expecting him to come and he didn’t

Lauren

May 23, 2017 at 7:26 am

Hi Amor,

I’ve commented on here before. I still feel like my ex is the one even though it’s been 6 months. We were on and off for 9 months & he was a classic commitment phobe. I tried to reach out in march (3 months post BU) I received a positive response & then when I texted again I received a negative response- he got bitter & said he doesn’t see the point in us texting, he’s with someone (I don’t believe this to be true as he’s never hanging out with her & he’s been working out in the gym heavily- anyone in a relationship wouldn’t feel the need to do this) & he also got annoyed when I said he looks at everything I’m up to & being curious (that really riled him & I took that as being true cos no one would get that annoyed otherwise) left it another two months until yesterday. He still constantly looks at every snapchat & insta story I post (I post loads of snapchat stories of me having fun & working out & funny things) he’s always the first one to look especially on the weekend when I’m out having fun (he clearly isn’t having as much fun if he’s looking at what I’m doing on a Saturday night) this week he’s been in Barcelona but has still been looking at all my stories. He posted a photo of himself wearing half an outfit I got for him. I took this as the opportunity yesterday to tell him “the white CK top looks great ” I received a positive response of “”

I don’t know where to go from here. I don’t want to text again and receive a negative response (cos it’s not like he tried to have a convo yesterday) also I’m going to this rooftop event in a few weeks and it came up on Facebook that he’s also going. If this is the case should I leave it and wait until then and see what happens at this event (I’m going to make sure I look amazing) ?

Lauren

May 24, 2017 at 7:53 pm

Hi AMOR,

Amazing thank you! I think he got annoyed and said the thing about having a girlfriend when he was bitter still. Since I complimented the other day he’s now always the first to view my stories (I’ve been posting a lot cos I have a new fun job that means I’m out and about a lot) do you think I shouldn’t try talking to him? If he goes to this event I’ll see what happens but if he doesn’t go I should just leave it for him to come to me? Thank you so much for all of your advice!

Hi Lauren,
yes, use the event as a stepping stone but my advice is, to be frank, if he’s making up being in a relationship, then that’s worse because it means he just don’t want to talk to you. It’s a good sign that he’s curious about you by viewing your stories, but pointing it out hurts his ego and it doesn’t help in building rapport with him.. So, avoid that..

. I knew this guy for 3 years but we never dated. We met through a friend one day and really hit it off but the timing was wrong. I had just broken up with my ex boyfriend of 2 years and didn’t want to rush into anything. We did sleep together twice after about the first month of knowing eachother but then I decided to cut off anything more than being friends with him. We continued to be friends for that summer but then he moved to a different city. Upon moving to that city, he got back together with his ex. We lost communication until they ended their relationship about a year of dating. He contacted me again and we hung out continueing our friendship. I ended up moving to the city he lived at because my family lived there, not for him. We began hanging regularly but I still kept my distance. He started to date another girl at the time and I began to realize that I truly wanted something more than a friendship. He would always ask me to stay over at his place too but I would never cross the line because I knew he had a gf. Finally I decided to not answer his phone calls or texts for about 2 weeks and then I sent him a text message explaining to him that I was starting to get feelings towards him and it wasn’t right because he had a gf. He face Timed me asap and we talked about where these feelings had come from. I decided that I wanted to stop talking to him all together (basically implementing the no contact rule). He tried to reach me for months, and then showed up at a performance I had randomly. We talked and I thanked him for coming out but I continued to ignore him. We ran into each other at a bar a month later and he confessed his love to me. Unfortunately he was drunk and couldnt drive home so I let him stay at my house which was close by. I made him sleep on the couch and I slept in my room. The next morning he kissed me and lingered around until the afternoon. The next few days we stayed in touch and had planned to hang out. I decided that I wasn’t going to hang out with him until I knew if he still had his gf or not. I found out he did and was extremely mad. I told him he should be treating her like a queen and not even trying to reach out to me if he was with her!!! I told him his immaturity was unexeptable and that I wanted nothing to do with him. He ended up blocking me from fb. About 4 months pass and I received a missed Face Time call from him. I decided I would text him that i was praying for him and his girlfriend and that I could use some prayers too. He never responded. I began dating another guy. A few months later I was out with said guy at a bar and He pops up. I ignored him but he lingered at the bar for a few hours. 8 months pass by and my bf and I break up. I still think about this guy all the time. He also broke up with his gf. I want to know what I should do…. After 3 years of knowing each other and having such a complicated love interest/friendship, should I reach out? Do you think he is still interested in me?

Lola

May 16, 2017 at 5:32 pm

I did. He did not answer me. I decided to just take the shot and text him Sunday night. He still has not responded. Losing hope :(. I tried so hard to always play my cards right with him. .

Healso unblocked me from FB but has deleted his FB since. I want to get in contavct with him but I don’t know what the right thing to do is.

Spoke to my ex last Friday for the first time since last October. We had not seen each other since last March, after we had broken up a month beforehand. He wanted to see me in October but I wasn’t ready. I told him that. He didn’t answer my text after that. We just spoke again this past Friday. I reached out with a simple text and he wrote back that he wanted to talk. We spoke for 30 minutes and it was a great convo. He said that he hoped he would see me and would let me know when he would be coming thru town. He lives about an hour away. About 3 hours after the call he texted me and said that he was glad we had talked and connected, lots of good memories and to stay in touch. What do I do now. Today is Monday…

I need some advice plz.Me and my exboyfriend have been a part of each other’s lives for 2 yrs.We were together for almost a yr…His mom got real sick…I didn’t hear from him but twice in a 2 wk period so I sent him dozens of txts,emails,and vm’s and it pushed him away…He said we could be friends for now….So we were for 8 months but during that time I sent him lots of needy msgs when he kept telling me that he wasn’t ready to have a relationship rt now bc he was dealing w so much,and I kept doing it and he got very upset w me.This past Feb.he said that we would be just friends only bc I hadn’t changed….I asked him if I could show him that I could change then could we maybe one day be more,and he said we’d cross that bridge then…So we started to get closer again,but his mom died the beginning of March.He’s been acting really cool towards me since then…We msg each other 2 times a day but he usually gives one word replies.He does work 2 jobs though and has his 12 yr old son on wknds his dad is also not well so he makes trips to GA every wknd from TN w his son to spend time w his dad.I love him w all my heart and soul,and will never be w anyone other than him,but we haven’t seen each other in a little over a yr….Am I fooling myself in thinking that we can get back together?We were so much in love til he started going through all this stressful and emotional stuff.He told me a couple of wks ago that I needed to stop and understand what just friends is,and he’s not in a place rt now to take my emotional needs,he said that bc I sent him a msg and told him how I felt…He said that was pushing him away again so I asked him to tell me what I could do to bring him closer and he said Just need to quit and he couldn’t take my emotional needs rt now….Plz help me.,I don’t know what to do.I love him so much.

How can I get my ex back if I don’t have his phone number anymore? It’s been 6 months. I think he tried reaching out to me a month ago, late at night, but I didn’t have the number stored. When I asked who is this they never responded. The phone number looked like his, though. Is social media an option if we don’t “follow” each other?

yes,you can use social media.. you don’t have to follow each other nor be friends, as long as you can message him there, that’s ok.

It’s been three years since our breakup which wasn’t the best and we attempted to reconcile after but there was a lot of miscommunication. I recently went through a break up with another boyfriend and shortly afterward ran into him (with his new girlfriend) and all the feelings came rushing back. The whole time I was with my most recent boyfriend I always felt like something was missing. The feelings were never as strong. How do you get someone back that is with someone else?
