Long story short my ex and I broke up about 3 weeks ago, I went NC and we haven't talked at all really since then. It was mostly her idea because we fought a lot and we needed some time apart. About 3 days ago i woke up to a text from her sent at 3:16am saying "I miss you." I didn't respond and still haven't, i also haven't heard from her since, I think she was just out with her girlfriends that night and probably drunk texted me. Since the breakup i'm sure she has been trying to enjoy her "senior year" and just wanted to have fun and not stress over our relationship for awhile but her texting me got me wondering if she really does miss me. Part of me is tempted to break NC but I don't know what to do, she has prom next weekend...(going with another guy -_-) so maybe i should wait until that is all over with. Any advice?

Don't respond.

 

Just a story, a good friend of mine was dumped by her boyfriend because he wanted to experience "being single" and he suggested that they not speak anymore because it would be too hard that way. She obliged and didn't speak to him, but then he sent her a message a few weeks or months, I don't remember, saying "I miss you." She responded and they somewhat reconciled for a few weeks before he would break up with her again. Some time later, another "This is hard, I miss you" and the situation would happen again. Later, rinse, repeat. They were together for 8 months officially but this situation went on for 4 years. It was just a bad, bad time for all. It devolved into a strictly sexual relationship, and when he found another girl that he actually wanted a relationship he cut her off completely and she was devastated.

 

So anyway, moral of the story is that they will continue to pull your strings if they can. Don't fall for it like my friends and I have!

I think you hit the nail on the head. Text at 3AM? Drunk text....No follow up in the AM? Drunk text....

 

She probably doesn't even remember sending it.

 

 

Ignore it. Move on.

So she said, "I miss you"? Wow, doesn't that feel great that she isn't doing a damn thing about missing you?

 

It's not a reason to jump for joy, "I miss you" doesn't mean "I'm in love with you." It doesn't mean "I want you back." Sometimes "I Miss You" is because they are bored, lonely or want an ego boost. Or in her case, DRUNK.

 

Missing you was a choice they made and whatever it is that they miss about you - that wasn't enough to stay in a relationship with you.

 

I would say..."yeah, but I bet your vagina does more..."

 

Not really of course...pausing for another witty what if we did quote...

Bahahaha. If that happened to me I would text that because IDGAF. But would probably open a can of worms for the OP, haha. Giac10, I'd let it go. I never trust texts that are received after 10pm because they are either drunk texts or texts made out of rando desperation.
