im still in love with my ex boyfriend even though we've been broken up over a year, i think about him all the time and i miss him so much. i really tried to move on with my life and to put it all behind me but i just cant. i really do still love him and i dont know what to do...
should i text him or try get back in touch with him??
i honestly dont know what to do, has anyone been in this type of situation before or have any advice please?
thanks

Depends on the circumstances of the break up imo and if he is with somone else now.

There are a lot of other threads on this type topic that have a lot of good advice which might help!

No harm in sending a hello e mail.

You haven't been in touch for the year?

If you still have feelings for him try getting in touch although if he's moved on and is happy with somebody else then you can't go disrupting his life

it wasnt a bad break up, we were both just in different 'places' i was in college and he was working, and we are both just too stubborn so neither of us wanted to text first i think....

i dont think he is seeing anyone?

i really really miss him....if i could go back in time.....:(

Give him a text tomorrow then. Just take it from there

+1 on getting in touch then. Sure no harm can come of it. You don't want to be thinking what if....
You may be able to close that chapter too if thinks don't work out, so all good:)

yes i know i should just bite the bullet and text him but i get so nervous at the thoughts of it...my heart just starts pounding!! :eek:
he walked by the shop where i work and we both just waved but you should have seen me after..my hands were shaking!!

i know ill probably torment myself until i do with all the what if business? :rolleyes:
and i know its no shame to love somebody but a part of me just feels like a proper sap for still loving him?! i know its stupid though!

thanks everyone for the advice!

Hi OP,

If you had an amicable relationship, and the break up was just circumstantial as opposed to anything else, then you are in a great position to contact him. Especially since you saw him recently, that could be the perfect reason to text him!

I wouldn't steam in there with "I've missed you, I still love you", just send the text and as another poster said, take it from there. You can gauge his reaction then over time.

I know you get nervous at the thought of it, but I think you'll feel so empowered taking action!

Best of Luck OP, and let us know how you get on!:)

i wouldnt say that, the "why didnt you pop in" can be picked up the wrong way if ya get me?

but you should text just to say hello,then play it by ear:cool:

Go for it Op! I mean you have no idea what the future will bring, and you will always ask 'what if', if you do nothing about it.

I am still in love with my ex and it's been 3 years since we broke up. Was too stubborn to approach him, or fight for him, and he met smoeone else and now they have a kid and are getting married. Biggest regreat of my life.

Good luck!
