prexet Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 On Friday, when I was leaving class, my ex girlfriend was walking by and managed to catch my eye. I waited a second before I left the classroom, thinking little of it, and found her waiting for me at the exit of the building. I could tell she was nervous, she said "hey you" and started trying to make small talk about how my life was going, having seen my brother, etc. I answered her questions, but because I was in shock, I was very choppy with her and actually didn't stop moving, walking a direct circle around her before stepping out the door. Before I did so, she said "Well have a good day." and she had her hand on her forehead, and seemed somewhat upset (I'm not positive she was, but it seemed like it to me.) She just stormed away afterwards, so I don't think she was waiting at the spot for any reason other than to talk. Anyway, I'm trying to decide if I should see if she wants to catch up. I can't decide if her talking to me was in genuine interest of talking or if she was trying to make future run-ins less awkward. That was the first time since I had seen her since October-- I had texted her to see if she wanted her stuff back in December, she said she didn't, but I paid a friend to do so anyway. I still have feelings for the girl, and my friends told me that if I did want to see her I would have to initiate-- they believed last semester I had been seeing a lot of girls after our break up for some reason (I did not), and she probably believed the same. I would like to see if things could work out, very slowly, starting as friends first probably.
Cakess Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 Well, it sounds like the ball is in your court now! I would continue to just play it cool and wait a few days to see if she strikes up any more little "conversations" in the hallway. If you are still interested in being with her romantically or just being good friends again, I'd take things slowly and try not to bring up the past, the break up, or any of that stuff when you do talk. Just learn to enjoy each other's company again! 1
Author prexet Posted January 20, 2014 Author Posted January 20, 2014 That's the plan for now! I would have maybe said something sooner given my strange reaction but I want to make sure she wasn't just trying to make things not awkward between us (I can't imagine she would have waited around for me in that case but that's why I'm here).
