He couldn't commit so we split up. 3 year relationship that was really amazing. we're both in our 30's. I wanted more commitment (living together) he couldn't do it and we split up amicably. He said he would have been happy for the relationship to carry on as is.

We've been NC for months, then sporadic LC instigated by him. Then i requested NC again which he was sad about, said he missed me and wanted to meet up when i was ready. Cut to 2 months ahead. I text him asking how he was and asked him if wanted to catch-up. He immediately said yes and said how about lunch?

Was soooo scared. But went and had amazing lunch - we couldn't stop laughing and he was telling me all his stories and asking me about my work and family etc. We didn't even touch the food we ordered! had a big hug goodbye. But no mention of 'us' at all. Which I'm kinda glad about.

So he has been emailing me lots and me emailing back since. And when i say lots - twice a day. All just friendly banter - sharing links to work we've done whilst apart (we're in the film industry).

but what do i do? do i email back? how long do i wait in between emails? Do i play it 'cool'? He has not mentioned once that he wants to meet up again.... and that is quite upsetting.

Do i just assume that all he wants is friendship?? i don't even email my friends that much though!

any advice so welcome.

ps: oh and i know he hasn't met anyone yet.
