Okay, so I have been thinking about ways to setup a situation on how I can reach out and possibly get some interest back with my ex. Problem is, we're about 45 minutes away from each other, so running into one another isn't going to happen.

 

Here's how everything played out. Met this woman through eharmony.com back in November 2008. After about a month of going back and forth, we had a first meet on Dec. 31, 2009 in her town for a quick drink. We stayed and talked for a few hours, then she had to go meet with her parents for a NYE party. We then dated till mid February and I jumped and called it off; albeit stupidly. Here's the fallout. We had a date planned and I called a day before to confirm. First, she said yes, we're all set. Then, couple hours later, she texted me back and said she had to cancel. Said she had to tutor a child and then Saturday morning had some work to take care of. Now, this was planned for a week, so it did not come out of no where. I replied back. Fine. Thinking, again, stupidly, I thought something was up. So I suggested, maybe we should just call things off. Four hours later, she agreed and thought it was best. I wrote then a long email later on how things just didn't look right and very illogical. She wrote back and then I wrote again, never to hear back from her.

 

Then, about two months later, I was invited to a party hosted by one of the women she really admired. I emailed her and seeing if she wanted to go. Surprisingly, the next day, she emailed back and said Its great to hear from me and she was honored to be my date for the party. She then said, she thought it would be a great date and was sorry how we left things. She used the word date, I did not. In closing, she said we should get on the phone to settle things up for the party. I replied and said, I was surprised you would want to go. I requested for her to call me, as she never picks up her phone. She's the type of woman who has to do twenty things at once, always. Yea, I realized that was my second stupid error. Then, before I could fix it, I was in an accident which left me in the hospital for several months. I've always regretted how I screwed things up, not once, but twice. In all the women I've dated since then, none of them could hold a candle to her. They were all nice in their way, but not like her.

 

I was on Match last week, and her old profile popped up. The photos were taken offline, but she logged in. Profile is still there and this is the first time she logged in for like 60 days. So, I thought maybe she's single again. Anyway, so here's my plan. I have a master's thesis coming up, and my original argument will be on social behavior and dating in the 21st century. I will compare the data I collect from the 21st century and compare the differences with the 20th century. Now, you scholars are probably thinking, what's so original about that. Well, the data I would be using, would be real life data from first hand experience, mine. So I would contact girls I dated in the past and start a dialog. Now, she is very educationally motivated. One of the things that stimulates her is knowledge and intellect. I think, if she responds to my email, it should be a positive one. What all of you think? Is it worth a shot? Or will I look more stupid, desperate or even creepy?

So I take it that no one has an opinion on this?
