My ex texted me again today
| If that shit was toxic leave it in the dump
| Can't say without more context. My instinct would be "no", though.
| Answer is no
| I'm a guy, my ex broke up with me a several years ago. I brought the subject up a couple times within that first year, but I refused to beg, seek pity, or coerce her into another relationship. That requires genuine interest from both parties.
You can maintain a healthy friendship with an ex. Mine is still my favorite person in the world, and we've known eachother for over a decade. I still love her, and I'm still single, but it isn't my place to try rekindling that.
| But if the subject of dating again keeps coming up regularly, then it's important to draw the line, and make it obvious that you aren't interested, and that you likely won't be in the future either. What they do with that information will tell you if they respect you or not.
| If you are genuinely considering restarting a relationship: Wait. One month is not enough time. I feel like spending a year apart gives both people enough time to think, adapt, and understand if the breakup was for the best. You want to make a decision that's best for you, not best for them.
| If staying apart means losing a friendship, then that friendship isn't as valuable as you think
| Imo, no. It depends if the relationship is toxic or not. You need to be rational and think about how you're going to proceed because sometimes, it's better if things stay ended.
| Only yes for sex. No for any other reason.
| Sorry g/u/rls, should've added more context
Well we did break up on good terms, and he was the one who proposed we stop talking to each other completely so we can remove our feelings for each other. Our circumstances irl made it difficult for us to stick as a couple. Being friends doesn't seem impossible but it's something I don't want to focus on now.
| I want to stay true to what he said (about us not talking with each other) because I think I still have feelings for him, so seeing him send me a text message again admittedly made me confused and just a bit annoyed.

| We broke up roughly a month ago and he texted me and he said he misses me and he can't stop thinking about me
Should I reply?
