my ex and I broke up about a month ago. We both needed some time alone, we have been going out for about 3 years. i am 20 and he is 22. Why we broke up was we both needed time, he had alot of stress in his life with his family and i was trying to get into schools, and help out my family. We didnt end it on a bad note but I told him to be fair I wasnt going to talk to him till I am ready, and he was the one who ‘broke it off’. Well now I am ready and I dont know what to say. I want to get back together with him but I dont know where to start. I dont know what to say to him, I still have strong feelings for him, but im afraid that if i talk to him he will not want to be with me still. And tips on how to talk to him? or how to get back together with him?
Thanks

If he broke up with you after dating for three years because he had family stress in his life, one month may not have resolved that issue for him. Do you think that the family stress is the real reason he broke up with you — or was that an excuse and the reason was something else?

You can let him know you’re thinking of him by sending a heartfelt, but pressure-free e-mail or phone call, but don’t YOU make the first move. If he wants to get back together with you, he knows how to reach you and if he doesn’t, I don’t want to see you wasting time with someone who isn’t really going to be your Mr. Right.

I hope that helps. Let me know how things go. And follow me on Twitter @AskAprilcom as well as on AskApril.com on Facebook at this link: [url][/url].

If i sent him a email.. what would I say?

[April Masini, your AskApril]

You can write something like, “Thinking of you and hope you’re doing well.” Open, airy and light.

I was thinking something like this
I miss you, hope you’re doing well. You dont need to reply to this. Just wanted to let you know im thinking of you.

any other suggestions?

[April Masini, your AskApril]

Don’t say, “You don’t have to reply to this.” It comes off as a little controlling and insecure since he already knows he doesn’t have to reply if he doesn’t want to. Otherwise, it’s fine!
