Brief history: 2 year relationship..We have been broken up for around 6 months... I wanted to stay together and work things out, they didn't. I pleaded my case and admitted realized short comings where due with no success.

6 months later..

 

My X texts me for a collection of old scratched up burned DVD's (which we both know are very few, useless and probably wont even work)

 

I was hesitant to reply so I didn't. Through the day I receive multiple texts inquiring on the initial request. I waited until I got home from work and actually looked for them, when I found some I sent a short sweet text reply and dropped them off with no contact other then my one and only text reply

 

I was texted a "thank u!" and "i appreciate it"

 

..One week passes..

 

I randomly saw my X again walking the family dog with a friend so we waved at each other

less then a minute later I get a call on my cell I answer to hear "Hi just ran out of doggy bags and was wondering if you had any with you thought I would ask"

 

[At this point we have been broken up for 6 months with close to no contact, so this kind of small talk is almost insulting]

 

So after a very brief friendly conversation I share the fact that I don't have a bag, but I'm glad they called. we say our goodbyes.

 

After the convo I'm really happy the call was even made as I said it had been a long time since I had received contact from this person other then the un-important old DVD's request only 1.5 weeks earlier.

 

So after these 2 contact attempts from my X to me in only a week and a half window, I start to sense potential for what seemed to be maybe some resurfacing interest for me..

 

This has me excited at the potential of what I know could be the beginning of recovering what could have been a great life for both of us

 

THEN!!!!

 

the other night I randomly see my X holding hands with what must be a new lover walking the dog

 

I felt sick to my stomach, dazed and confused

even more so due to the recent contact attempts-no matter how insignificant or "innocent"

 

So... other then the fact that I need to NO CONTACT and move on

 

I don't know what to make of this.... anyone have any insight?

 

Thank you all for your time and thoughts, sincerely

 

Anything helps

It means nothing... I hate to say it thats what it means. Its called a bread crumb. It sucks, she just wants to know if you still care.

A. they felt confortable with you to ask for the stuff. (the whole time heals all)

or

B. they still think about you, and it had been so long they wanted/needed to talk to you.

 

thats my best guess :)
