Ex-Girlfriend Accidently Texting Me?

[kirk1208]

Dear April,
So my girlfriend broke up with me for time and said she just has too much stress in her life and can’t have a boyfriend holding her back right now. Personally, I think that it is the couple of medicines that she is on that is making her confused and depressed. Anyways, she broke up with me last Friday and it was very rough. She said that there might be a chance for us in the future, she said give it a couple months, but I guess she just felt hindered at the fact that she couldn’t go out with her friends, which i was TOTALLY fine with and I told her that numerous times. So anyways, now to my point. She texted me Saturday night and asked me what I was doing. Almost directly after that she texted me back saying sorry that wasn’t meant to go to you. I didn’t text her back and haven’t talked to her since she broke up with me. A couple girls told me that that is a way for her to trick me and make sure that I was still there and try to talk to me. So I am asking you this. Do you think she meant to do that or do you think she truly accidentally texted me. I know this sounds like a stupid question, but if she wants to talk to me I don’t want to drive her away because I still want to be with her. Should I text or call her back? Or is it too late and should I just wait for her to make contact again? So I am just looking for your imput. Thank you!

Well, I don’t know her or else I would know what to say in this instance.
But from my experience with my ex-boyfriend,(we broke up for different reasons. it just wasn’t going to work) Once in awhile I’ll get lonely because I haven’t found someone who genuinely seems to care about me so I’ll call him. A couple of times I’ve called him and hung up before he answered just to see what his reaction was.
It’s possible that she’s wanting to initiate a conversation with you or see what your reaction is by her texting you. It’s possible she misses the attention she had from you and despite the stress in her life, she’s probably lonely and wants to know that you possibly still care for her.
I don’t know though, because I don’t know the situation fully but I know that’s the reason I call my ex.
Hope that helped. 🙂

If you still want her back, and you truly believe that her reason for breaking up with you (too much stress in her life) is real, then give her a couple of weeks and contact her by letting her know that you’re hoping her stress is abating and asking her if she might be interested in having dinner together if she’s feeling lighter. You don’t need her accidental text (or not) to give it another try.
