Drinking can sure bring on a sentimental state-of-mind. After a few drinks, texting you seems like a great idea. He might be feeling romantic, missing having a woman in his life, missing you specifically, or just missing female attention. But as is the case with all forms of drunk dialing, the morning after is filled with regrets. Nothing more comes of it.
If a man you dated a while ago texts you out of the blue, he might have just broken up with his until-now current flame. Feeling wounded, he wants to reconnect with you, no matter how briefly, to simply feel loved again.
This is a temporary measure. As I mentioned earlier, the way most men think is drastically different from the way many women do..
Women have strong emotions and extensive reasons behind what we say and do. However, we often prefer not to reveal the deeper motivations behind our behavior. While men may have deep feelings or hidden agendas, they are more direct and simpler to understand. For these obvious reasons above, you have to be in contact with your ex. The Limited Contact rule basically just means that you keep contact to a minimum. If you have no important reason or urgent need to contact your ex, then you should refrain from initiating contact.
It has to be related to something other than your relationship with your ex. If your ex contacts you, keep it short and make any encounter or interaction light and fun.
The goal is to make all interactions with your ex a pleasant one. This way it will allow your ex to find the good qualities in you again and slowly remember the good times they had with you. In time, this can slowly blossom to the point your ex becomes attracted to you again.
Take away the lover part and you still are the best friend. For that reason, your ex might feel very comfortable to talk to you and even confide in you. They may even sometimes tell you that they have found someone new and ask you for your opinion. And as tough as I know it is, you will have to resist this urge if you want to get back with your ex.
So, keep that in mind because the last thing you want is to make your ex permanently ignore you. If you want your ex back, you need to maintain contact, so that in time you can attract your ex back. This is one of the most possible reasons why your ex contacts you. Or, could be pretending to be over you but still have feelings for you.
For example, I have many clients that their ex would just contact them out of the blue to start a conversation. And especially if you two had been in a relationship for years, it can be very hard to totally forget you.
A part of your ex probably wants to be with you still…. But because of reasons that they consciously tell themselves, they resist the urge to want to get back with you thinking it is not going to work out. And think about it — if you remove all the arguments, quarrels, fights, disagreements between you two…. All you have is two people who really love and care for each other!
It is similar to the reason 3, but this is actually a much stronger feeling that your ex is feeling at the moment. It is possible that your ex has been thinking about you for days and probably miss you a lot. So, they contact you but have too much pride to tell you that they miss you…. And they find ways and excuses just to be in contact with you. For example, one of my clients had her ex suddenly text her out of the blue after two weeks of no contact.

Coronavirus protocols provided an opportunity for Salcedo to extend an olive branch of sorts to her ex without it seeming forced or flirtatious, and Salcedo told me that they continued texting intermittently over the next few days.
Whether that was truly all they were after is hard to say, she added, but the tragedy provided a respectable reason for getting back in touch.
But Heflich told me he just wanted to make sure that the women who had quite recently been important figures in his life were doing all right.
Heflich said they chatted for a solid 20 minutes. Skip to content Site Navigation The Atlantic. This way you gather information before making any assumptions or saying anything you may regret later. No matter how you decide to approach the contact that's been made, don't rush things. You may very well end up back with this person, or at the very least good friends with them depending on how things go.
But don't rush a response or a decision about what you two "are. It is okay to let them know you are not interested in rebuilding again. No matter how the conversation goes, be sure that you're open and honest from the get-go. No matter how you want the talk to go, making sure everyone is on the same page can only be a good thing. There are legitimate reasons to try again after a break up, but if you constantly find yourself in this push-pull, neither of you are getting the kind of love and cherishing you deserve.
If they've reached out and seem intent on getting back together, there are some scenarios in which you can entertain it, but it all depends on how your initial relationship went. Perhaps your healthier state of mind will allow for a relationship to work out this time around. If they want to get back together with you and make that known, and you don't feel the same way, be sure that communicating back to them won't hurt them.
