If your ex texts ‘I miss you’, how should you reply?

There is no single "right" answer because the best reply depends entirely on how you feel about them.

I would thank her and just say that we had fun together during our relationship. Has this happened to you? Do you think she misses the sex and wants to get back together?

[NathanDavis]

you should reply as you feel...

and also within the context of your situation, which... can absolutely vary from one to another...

Not at all unless you have some hope of getting back together or feel like catching up

If your ex texts “I miss you,” your reply depends on your goal.

If you’re done:
“I understand, but I’ve moved on. I wish you the best.”

If you’re open but cautious:
“I miss what we had too, but the reasons we broke up are still real.”

No lovebombing, no instant reunion, no late-night weak replies. Stay calm, direct, and protect your heart first.

I wouldn't reply at all.

Are you still friendly? If not, why are you even seeing the message?

[loveyouoak]

I'd ignore it and wait for another text, but I don't think I'd reply to that one either.
