ok so i talk to a few of my friends on aim every now and then i don't use it a whole lot...

 

the problem i'm facing is that i'm home for the summer...my ex and i talked met up texted some for about a month after we broke up then we parted ways for summer break...

 

in the last month she's contacted me 2-3 times everytime through aim...should i just stop using aim or permanently have an away message up because i don't want to be strung along but at the same time i don't just wanna straight up ignore her... i go back to college in like a month and a half

Um... if you don't use it a whole lot, then just keep not using AIM? There's other ways to communicate with friends and it looks like you've been doing your communication with them just fine without AIM.

 

You don't want to be strung along, but you don't want to ignore her... So basically whenever you talk, you're getting your hopes up when you talk to her? I don't know about you, but that to me would serve as an incentive to keep staying away from her. You don't want to ignore her phone calls, text messages, etc. fine. Keep the ball in your court then. Keep responses short and neutral, but don't keep a 'conversation' going by responding to her responses.

 

If you're going to keep on trying to be nice - at your expense - it's not worth being nice. I don't like AIM personally, and I've maintained better friendships that way.

 

Just my $0.02. If you've posted your story in a different thread, I don't recall reading it and I don't recall responding to it, so I apologize in advance if my response seems way out in left field.

yea thats kinda what i was thinking heres a lil more background...just trying to keep it short

 

we dated for a year and a half...started in december of freshman year at college she had like 2 other friends both girls...she became friends with all of my guy friends...and yea so they were friends with her...

 

we broke up at the end of march so the last month of school basically sucked because i had to balance between the two...me and her hung out a couple of times and talked so we left school on good terms

 

we've talked like 2-3 times on aim don't really remember but only once via texts so thats why i was kinda like should i just stay off of aim and if she texts me then go from there
