Should I try to contact my ex?

We haven't spoken in 2 months. I want to talk to him. I think. I don't know. Ahhh! I'm so confused!

I reckon there's usually a reason he's an ex. And those reasons don't usually change. Being open to the possibility of a new relationship is usually a better bet, in my opinion.

Hi Angela,

I tend to think Tamar is right. 2 months seems like an eternity but the space is important and necessary. If your feelings are confused now, getting back in touch will most likely only add to that - trust me on that one. Sometimes it's the space that reveals whether there really was a 'bond' or not. Sometimes you have to sit with the discomfort to see the truth revealed. And I know sitting with discomfort can be really hard and feel really lonely and stuff. But you've got us to talk to and work stuff through with.

Warmest wishes,
Damos

Thanks for posting you guys. I think PB is my breakup buddy:) I went to the bookstore today and read "Don't call that man". I had a revelation. I have accepted the fact that we are never going to get back together. And that we will probably never talk again. Unless I get over him for real. It feels good to accept this.
