A female United States age 41-50, *assina writes:

I dated this guy in high school. I broke up with him cause we were leaving for college and I heard that he was heartbroken for years thereafter. And although I moved to another city after graduation, I always thought about him for all these years.

Because we have mutual friends, we remained in casual contact.

However in the last year, we have become really tight cause we're both going through some issues and find comfort in each other (by email or phone).

So last month, I made a trip home to attend our friend's wedding, where we also met up several times other than the wedding. I thought we really connected and talked for hours and hours. there was nothing overtly romantic- but I definitely felt chemistry.

Anyway- but after the last time I saw him, he never called me or replied to my email. It's like he's ignoring me on purpose!

I am so confused!! cause I really think I still love him.

Can you explain what this guy is thinking?

If he has no romantic feelings for me- at least we can go back to being friends like before.

If he does have feelings for me- why is he ignoring me? is he scared that i'll break up with him again? should i tell him how I feel?

tennisstar88 agony auntIn my experience, it's best to leave old boyfriends back where the belong in your high school memory.

Maybe he hasn't checked his email because he's been busy. I slack off on checking my email often.

Unfortunately, I'm not a virtual mind reader so I don't know what he's thinking.

He's probably gone back to the casual contact you two have maintained over the years. You two met up several times to catch up, that's it. If you want more than just friends, then make a move. Ask him out on a date. Because it obviously wasn't clear these last few times you talked to him, that you're into him.
