I’m currently in two minds about something.
I was in a relationship with a guy for just over a year. We had good times together but both realised that it didn’t really work. I lived quite some distance away – we stayed in touch for a little while but it came to feel uncomfortable and we decided that it would be easiest to have a clean break. We disconnected on Facebook and other social media and both went and got on with our lives.
Its been about 10 months since we were last in contact with each other I’m heading back to London for a few weeks to see friends and catch up with people. Plans made by my friends mean that I’m gonna be hanging out in his neighbourhood a lot and its even been suggested that we go to a restaurant that by chance happens to be directly opposite his apartment – I’m kind of left feeling a bit uncomfortable with this, seems strange to me to be in close the vicinity to some one that I have cared for and not to say hi.
I should note here I have no intention of ever getting back together with him but I’m split on this..
One part of me wonders if I should get in touch just to let him know I’m going to be in the area. This feels like the most sensible thing to do and I would be happy to have a drink and find out how he is doing. In the least I wouldn’t want it to be awkward if we did bump into each other.
The other part of me wonders if it might be best to leave him be. We did agree a clean break – I know he has moved on with his life and there might be the chance that he wouldn’t want to see me anyway. And in all honesty I could always suggest a different restaurant to my friends or make other plans.
I guess to contact him or not contact him – that is the question.
