I would hope you would respond to her, being a girl myself and trying to contact an ex after not talking for months, i know what its like but, I only ever did it for a closure type thing, Its like when i am over it i want to make sure they are not mad or still feel like we cant talk, i have one ex that we ended up being not friends but, kind of online chat type friends it just makes me feel better that we can move on and my other one barely would ever talk to me and it hurt me for a while sometimes a girl can be so mad at you hate you all that but in reality they want to know everything is ok.

I understand you feeling guilty but, doesn't it make you more guilty for not answering at all. Besides if she brings up that you never call her you can say she hasn't called you for months either.

Ya you are.. But the main problem why I cant attend call is we used tobe very close to each other and at once our communication has stopped and there is no word we shared each other for months. So I have a feeling that Am i doing wrong in not talking to her, So a sort of guilty feeling which make me not to attend her call.

Well you cannot know the reason behind it unless you answer it. I guess for courtesy try to answer her call and know what it is all about. I do not know why you are avoiding her if you have nothing guilty about why you broke up with her.

Okay I suggest that you answer it then know what it is about. If it is still jealousy then say to her that there is no jealousy to talk about since the two of you have broken already. Suggest to her to move on if she is still trying to come back.

Hi Srini, You said 'due to some reasons' and it is not clear you are fault or she. You are well aware at what circumstances it got broke and it is clear from your words that you never made an attempt to call her also. Any way, you are excited now and without talking you disconnected the line. Now you are so anxious that why she called and as long as she didn't go for a 2nd try, you are still restless. Any way, reasons can be of different and may be temporary also. As long as you wish to know why, and there is a reflection that she has taken the initiative to cut-off for the relationship. Also, think that have you taken any unpleasant request from from your side to make her furious or is it the mistake from your part? As long as you are aware the reason, you may have your own decision on the incident which happened for the split. Now, if you feel that you want to know the reason, you need to call her back and if you don't want to continue the relation any more, you can ignore it. Everything upto you and take an appropriate decision by yourself. Best regards

Uh-oh! Exactly the same question I was asked. And I'm in exact position as yours, the only difference is that he hasn't tried to reach me out. But he expressed his wanting to communicate with me or see me again thru our common friends only. He had no guts to tell me what he feels. But I've already prepared myself if this situation comes. I think I'd answer the call and asked what is it about. A meeting will be fine, even if I choose not to see him again if he invited me out I would have to meet with him. That way you will be able to know whether you still love the person or not.

if i were you, i would accept the call. we don't know what really is her purpose for calling. might be that she just wanted to say hi. she might be meaning to talking to you for some good news. just wondering... are you over her? because you sound really nervous. and its a sign that you are still inlove with her.

I cannot say I am still loving her. Because of her I have got many happiest moments in my life but she left me. I can't get out of that feeling.. And I am so glad that you found out my feelings on her.:)

well usually you go out with people because you like them, that shouldnt stop because you no longer have a physical relationship. Why wouldnt you talk to someone you know if you talk to strangers on the phone

Hi jrhartley.. In my case it was not easy because there is no communication between us. Moreover talking with strangers is easy than talking with someone who meant to so much and left you.

if i were you, i would answer the call. in the first place you don't know why she called,it might be that she just want to ask how are you,or she might have some other things to consult with you. exchanging how are you's with an ex is just normal i think. there is nothing wrong with that especially that you two shared special moments in the past. for me, i want me to remember by my ex with the happy times we shared together. so that when the time comes that we need to be apart or we'll break up, he would not think of me with hatred, and the next time we'll see each other, i could still look at him straight in the eye.

Welcome churchill1980. The way you think is so different and many people can't have that mindset. People with such type of broad-mind are pretty less. But You are right no one can forget the moments during a relationship. It has taught me so many lessons. I will look forward for her call, But If she think that i have igo in making her a call it will be her mistake. But for sure I will make my mind as you said to be for a haappy life after.:)

I think that you should make sure that your feelings (romantic feelings) are no longer there. There are times when you feel like you have already moved on but it all comes back the moment that you speak to that person again. You should also make it sure that the girl understand your intentions, if you just want to be friends or you want to be something more than that. I only talk to an ex of mine if I'm sure that I am no longer in love with them because I don't want to be unfair with him, myself or the person I am dating at the moment if there is one.

Thanks for the advice tessa9. It was nice and I haven't thought in that way about our relation. I would do if there is any other chance of talking with her.

Hi, I have the same situation a while back. We broke up, lost communication for a while, then got a text message from her for a meet up, maybe to light up the old flame. It didn't prosper really, I gave it a little bit of cooling period by not responding right away. The next thing I know, she is engaged to another, a friend of mine.

Hi srinivas, i think you should call her back because she might want to say something important with you and also it is your chance to ask her about her present life after you broke up.

I would have to agree with what most people commented before me. I guess there's nothing wrong woth answering her call and if you missed the call, then why not give her a return call. It's not always about your past relationship that might be the subject and the reason why she called, it's maybe because she has something more important to tell you. Just don't think about your personal feelings or what, but I guess it's what most professional people do.

Ya joankath29.. Our relation has broke up with so many curses like "I won't talk to you in the future anymore". So I'm feeling a bot guilty in talking with her. I would have lifted her call if those negative feelings are not there.

If you don't answer its call pride inside in you. I should answer then if you need to get over with her tell her stop calling you want to move on and not now, or if you want be back let it be.

For me, I would. I just want to hear what she want to say, and when I hear it I'll just answer it back. Maybe it is something important that's why SHE CALLED YOU. She would not call you if it is just nothing. Try it. There's nothing wrong to talk to her again.

I am a very, very soft person and for that reason it is very difficult for me to be able to not talk to a person when they want to talk to me. So if I was to have a person from the past try to get into contact with me, I would be the one that would accept the call and I would be willing to talk to them. In fact, I have to admit that this is actually one of the reasons that I am now really good friends with one of my ex-boyfriends.

I think you did the right thing, as the relationship is broken why one should revive it by talking?

phew, this is really quite a difficult question to answer. I've currently just broke up not long ago with my boyfriend, only about a week ago. i suppose if she suddenly calls you then maybe she have something important to tell you? Even thought it would definitely be strange answering the call, i think you should answer it so at least you know why she call you for. On the other hand, maybe she is just drinking and therefore called u. nobody knows!

Well it is good to have a healthy relationship even if you are no more together. I think you should have answered the call and see why she had called you. That way it won't be a mystery. First I suggest that you to pick up her call if she calls next time or even you can call and ask her why she was calling you. thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day ahead.

I think you are still on the process of mending a broken heart. For me, I will just continue to have contacts with her, maybe she thinks it is fine to be friends after the break up.

If i were you, i will answer the call. Because I think that we can still be friends after break-up. Maybe she just wants to contact you to know if you are OK or not.
