The no contact rule doesn't really work period, I don't know where women came up with this, if a guy texts you it's not cause of some "no contact" rule you put into action, it's cause he wants to talk to you.
If he does want to talk to you and you contact him, it'll make his day.
If he doesn't & you don't, he won't give a fuck.
But on another note, stop being so ridiculous about the situation, if you want to talk to him, make an attempt to talk to him, I'm not sure if women are aware of this, but girls aren't the only ones who like to see their significant other put out some effort in a relationship.
And shy or not, if he reaaally wanted to talk to you, he probably would've by now, but maybe if he's that shy then no, in a situation like that either
A) Make the first move, sitting around and waiting is not an effective way of getting what you want in life
B) Give him a reason to make the first move or find a way to let him know it's OK to make the first move.
But it seems like maybe you want to talk to him more than he does you(especially seeing as he broke up with you) so this waiting game doesn't sound like it will work out very well.
So who knows, if you make the first move things might end up well and you guys could end up getting back together again, if not, you may never know.
Speaking from personal experience here, I broke things off with a girl who I had a thing with months ago for telling people something she said she wouldn't and we stopped talking for about a month then she texted me one day and I wasn't mad about it or anything at that point(guys usually don't hold grudges so this will typically work well with us) so I just started talking to her again then we "got back together" I didn't miss her enough to make an effort to make the first move, but after she did it reminded me how I felt about her in the first place then we put all the drama aside.
Swallow your pride & text this guy before you lose a friend, this "guys should text first" rule is absurd, and the reason a lot of girls never meet their "knight in shining armor" They're too lazy or shy to work for him.
You want him to put in some effort, you do the same.

i hear guys saying they'll pretend not interested so the girl will come back. It doesn't work at all.
No contact is for when you try to get over him and don't want to see or hear him.
If you like him just contact and ask what went wrong. Tell him you want to talk. Trust me even if it's just you who does the talking at least you'll be sure he knows what you're thinking.
