Should I text my avoidant ex?

[Anonymous]

My avoidant ex and I have been off and on for about a year now. At first, everything was good until we went long-distance, and things went downhill. I officially broke things off with him in November when he came back after our "break". Since the new year, I can't stop thinking about him, and I have been having sleepless nights. I have been talking to someone new and they are more romantic than he is, but its just not the same. I just checked to see if he still has me blocked on WhatsApp, and he doesn't. What should I do?

I'd say go for it, you obviously miss him and you were the one to end things. Means the ball is in your court. If he says no you know to move on.

I'd break off all communication and find someone new. Move on.

So what exactly do you miss?

Tbh, i just miss him

I’m asking because sometimes you need to be THAT specific when you’re not only missing someone but considering acting on those feelings. This is your ex, and usually that’s for a very good reason. So you should ask yourself what about him you miss that could supersede why you left him in the first place. The distance is still relevant, and in most cases if you were to go back you’d be dealing with the same issues because a lot of those traits that pushed you away aren’t going anywhere, they’re part of him. So ask yourself what you miss, before choosing to act on anything.
