A year has passed since she broke up with me Christmas Day 2016... definitely rough holidays. We were together for a little over a year. So not too long, but I still catch myself thinking about her and being so frustrated at the fact that I can’t move on. We have had ZERO contact in over a year now and I’d like to return some stuff to her and ship it to her address in California.
(She found an amazing job offer out there and that was the reason we split. I needed to stay in Texas because of my career and she had to leave because of hers. Neither of us wanted a long distance relationship).
Anyways, I got blocked on the phone and on all social media right after it happened. I haven’t been able to contact her since. However, I’d like to send her a package with a few things she had left behind/given me along with a very sincere heartfelt letter. I feel that it’s appropriate to finally send things back and attempt to contact her via snail mail.
Just to be sure, I asked one of her close friends if she could talk to her for me about this matter and my ex said that she would accept a package from me. Her friend was the one who suggested I should write a letter to go along with it. She said, “you never know what could happen.” She mentioned that my ex seemed a bit nervous about the whole thing maybe because it has been so long now.
I just don’t understand why I haven’t been able to move on after such a long time. Maybe because I’m still holding on to some sort of “hope” or maybe because I’m looking for some sort of closure. I still love and care for her very much, but I don’t know if it is okay for me to send her the letter.
I can certainly post what I wrote her and maybe you guys can give me some feedback on my next post about it. (Be sure to follow me so you can read it after). But for now, what do you think is the right thing to do? Would you reach out to a person who you loved very much after a year has passed with no contact?
Any comments are greatly appreciated!
