You just got a text from your ex: “I miss you.” What’s your reply?

Question

Maybe_Maybe_not · Accepted Answer

Assuming she initiated breakup , then my reply is unknown. I've never seen that situation, and I wouldn't like dealing with it lol. Seems like a lot of complications. Assuming I initiated breakup , then my reply depends on how much in trouble she is. I already chose to listen to someone saying "I miss you" in such context. Three times. First time, it didn't look really good. Second and third time I learned how to get better at this. And I think it turned out not so bad. Striking a balance between compassion and my self-preservation.

Show my wife, then block and delete. I am happily married and will not let anything jeopardize my relationship with Ms. Helen, my wife.

"Well cherishing the memories you had with me is good, but that doesn't we're getting back together."

Something had to happen in order to breakup either he'd make up an excuse like "I think about different things too much" or he repeatedly crossed one of my boundaries or something else. No matter what happened then, now the circumstances changed out of that situation. We need adaptability in those circumstances, to grow. If he can't grow with me then he is not for me.

How adorable that you think so highly of me—it actually means something to know I once brightened your day. But honestly? I can’t unsee all the crap you pulled. Your worst moments still stand out far more than anything positive you think you ever did.

Finchie40 · Answer

Just ignore them and don’t reply to them whatsoever, if you reply to them you are giving them hope that they might have another chance with you , so just ignore them alll together

sawno · Answer

I'd invite her to call so we can catch up, and then tell her that she needs to be fully honest with everything I should know so I can forgive and we move forward. If she's honest we can then catch up and rebuild.
