Is my ex just being friendly?

[Anonymous]

Ex and I saw each other after 10 years. During the time we’re apart, I also immigrated to another country. When we met again, he has been sweeter this time, very caring and has been telling me he’s changed. At one point, he also called me just to play my favourite song on the guitar. Even gave me a gift and stayed with me before my flight. When I arrived to my now home country, he just said, the time went by so fast and after that he basically didn’t talk to me again. Until last night. He greeted me Merry Christmas. Is he just being friendly? Or am I still special to him?

Hmm that does seem kinda confusing. On one hand, it really sounds like he was being super sweet and caring when you saw each other. Playing your favorite song, giving you a gift, hanging out before your flight - that's boyfriend stuff right there.

But then for him to just stop talking to you after and only now say Merry Christmas... that part is weird. Makes it seem like maybe he got caught up in the memories and feelings of seeing an ex, but doesn't actually want more than friendship now.

If I were you, I'd try to have an honest chat with him. Let him know you're confused about where you two stand since the mixed signals. Ask what his intentions are - is he trying to reconnect romantically or just being friendly? Getting on the same page will help you figure things out.

My guess is he likes you as a friend but isn't ready for another relationship. But don't lose hope - you never know what could happen in the future. For now, just focus on communicating clearly so you're not left wondering, you know? Hope it works out!

He probably misses the times you and him spent together. Im glad it worked out when you hung out with him. He seemed to enjoy your company.

He's an ex for a reason. He's trying to get back so no.

how old are you 30 plus you know what he wants, the same as most other men, sex.

Well.. we saw each other multiple times when I was in our hometown and that never happened and we never talked about it as well?

He's giving you another chance to crush him, don't waste it.
