What should you say to your ex after seeing them for the first time after breaking up

[Everlastinglite]

I havent seen my ex since new years.. And im beginning to think i will never speak, hear or see him ever again.

So what if you accidently bump into them and your STILL in love with them? What should you say to them in that case?

Smile, say hi, do not break stride.

"I'll reach into a bag full of things I haven't done since you left me.. and pull out a smile. I'll say something like, "Hello, It's good to see you".. and I'll keep walking."

Avoid anyplace he might be for the next several months. If you only broke up 3-1/2 months ago, you're in no shape to see him!

 

If you never see him again.... that's a GOOD thing.

Say hi and keep walking. Nothing more.

Especially if you are "still in love" with them, the better off you will be the more time that passes before you see them. Those feelings should fade, especially if you use your logical brain to remember that they no longer love you.

 

When you do bump into them, I recommend the following:

 

Say Hi. Give a tight, fake forced smile. Stand there for 10 seconds. Declare you have to go. And leave.

 

Very simple.

 

Do not endeavor to have some long, deep emotional conversation about whatever you think went wrong, how you still care or why they should take you back.

I would grin and half heartily wave as if to say "I'm not bitter, just better".
