What should I do in this situation?

[Rkusmeaux]

2 years ago I had a handball trainer. He was very nice and we got along very well. I went to see him at his work twice during those 2 years. He was happy to see me. I see him very often in the street because we live in the Same neighborhood. a lot each time we say hello to each other and he appears to be happy to see me. But today we didn’t say hello to each other. I feel very bad for that and I’m afraid it is going to ruin our relationship. So I’m wandering if I should send him a message to take and give some news. But I’m not sure if it’s a good idea. I don’t want to act as a « needed person » towards him (since I initiate the contact all the time but he doesn’t expect when we cross in the street). Some advices? I feel really bad

Hey it’s okay rkusmeauk, it is natural to feel bad when we have a social interaction that doesn't go as expected, but most importantly remember that people have their own lives and may not always be able to say hello or engage in conversation. It's also maybe that your former handball trainer simply didn't see you or was preoccupied with something else.

If you feel like reaching out to him, you could send a friendly message to check in and see how he's doing. However, it's important to remember that not everyone wants or needs constant communication, and it's okay to give people space if that's what they prefer. If you do decide to reach out, try to approach the conversation from a place of genuine interest and curiosity, rather than feeling like you need to initiate contact all the time.

it’s ok if you didn’t greet each other. im an overthinker but i will advice you to not overthink this situation. he could had a bad day or he was thinking about something or there was something else. when you see each other again i hope you will great each other and everything will be normal as usual:)
