scipio Posted September 27, 2006 Posted September 27, 2006 Hi, I was in love with this girl (whom i dated) and we broke up about 2 years ago. I had a very hard time getting over her and maybe i am still not over her as I still think about her quite a bit. But I threw away her phone number, and I see her around once in a while (every 5 months or so) however I just prefer to say hello and then quickly move on. I recently heard that her father has a brain tumor and has been close to death several times,..as well as in and out of the hospital. I was sad to hear this and very concerned about her as she was close to him. Should I email her to let her know that my prayers are with her family?? Is this appropriate? I also don't want to give the impression that I'm still interested in her. I would like to hear your opinions as to how I should proceed. Thanks.
bluechocolate Posted September 27, 2006 Posted September 27, 2006 What is so urgent about this question? Anyway.... it depends I suppose. Did you know her father? Far easier question to answer if you two had become friends sometime after the break up & were still in touch. As it is you've seen her maybe 4 times in 2 years, said hello & carried on. I take it the news about her father didn't come from her? It is a nice gesture but I think I would leave it be. If he dies, that is a different story, you send a card & maybe some flowers. I had a very hard time getting over her and maybe i am still not over her as I still think about her quite a bit. I don't think you are over her or you wouldn't be thinking twice about this. You'd have emailed her already.

You'd have emailed her already. haha, i guess you're right. Well,..I just feel bad for her. She is sensitive to these kind of things. I figured that she could use all the support she gets. We did part ways on very good terms. The news didn't come from her,...as I haven't seen her in months. I don't know what the fathers situation is now (he's out of the hospital),...but this has been happening over the last few months.

D-Lish Posted September 27, 2006 Posted September 27, 2006 Why not e-mail her? It's a nice gesture. Letting someone know you care about their well being isn't the same as wanting to get back together. I think it's fine to do that. I'd appreciate the sentiment if it were me going through a hard time.
SUMMER 1969 Posted September 28, 2006 Posted September 28, 2006 I agree, if you send her a e-mail letting her to know that you are sorry to hear about her father I don't see anything wrong with that.. I am sure she needs a friend right now..
