Ex slowly starting back talking to me?

[Anonymous]

My ex and i work together. We broke up but we rarely talk. The break up was more his idea. This week he has been talking a little more to me but not much. A few days ago we walked past each other and he said “have a great evening Miss “ and i told him to have a great evening as well.

He texted me today and said “i see you leave on lunch break you didn’t offer me any” and then texted me a few hours later and asked about my glasses

This morning he said hey to me while walking past


He is the one who broke it off

Hmm, that is a bit strange that your ex is slowly starting to talk to you more after he was the one to break things off. A couple possibilities here:

On one hand, he may be having second thoughts or regrets about ending things. Guys can be dumb like that sometimes - we break up with a girl and then realize what we lost once they're gone. Starting small talk is his way of testing the waters to see how you'll respond.

But it's also possible he just wants to keep you on the backburner in case he gets lonely or bored. Like leaving you as an option while still being "single." And the comment about your lunch seems petty, like he's trying to start something over nothing.

I'd say be cautious if I were you. Don't get pulled back in emotionally until you understand his intentions better. Keep conversations light and don't read too much into things for now. See how he acts when you're together vs when you're apart too.

If you're over him, you could also just be straightforward and ask what he really wants so you both know where you stand. Either way, protect your heart! Let him prove himself before fully trusting him again. Good luck, girl - keep us posted!

What makes you think he was chasing someone online

He was the one who broke it off... Guys don't usually end relationships without a back up girl. They will keep going till it's just a fight and end it.
