Ex Texted After a week of NC

[Dude3210]

The Ex broke up with me 2 months ago, and were on a break for about a month before that. Since then we've been texting and gradually texting less. Usually its me that initiates the conversations. Now its been about a week and a half since we last texted a fun conversation (or rather since I texted her) and she messages me "why don't you talk to me anymore?" I'm trying to move on, but at the same time wanting to be friends...errr maybe get back together in the future (if there is hope). We dated 5 years after all. lol. So basically, any advice on how should respond if at all would be appreciated. If i do respond i'd like it to be something witty... as to appear nonchalant.

Sshhhh! I'm busy.

Respond, "You have some serious nerve."

 

Then ignore her, she'll figure it out eventually.

I have just recently put up a post about an ex initiating contact with me when SHE is the one who broke up with ME!.

 

5 years of dating. Chances are she still hurts. She is doing one of two things

 

1) using you as her rock to get over YOU! or 2) she wants you back.

 

I think you may ask her "are you interested?". Text her and ask her to meet face to face and talk. If she doesnt want to get back together say "Im sorry but I would rather not remain friends, I just want to get over the relationship and move on, I will say hi if i see you around town. I hope you understand".

I would just send her one last e-mail or text stating that you can't be friends with her right now since you're still harboring feelings for her. You're not being fair to yourself and you're not being fair to her. Explain that you need time to heal from this relationship and feelings that you still have for her so that you're able to move on. Then, go completely dark. If she can't understand that, then that's on her, but at least you don't come across as a douche rocket. Probably your best bet.
