writes: My ex and I were together for several months on and off. It gets complicated but basically he didnt want to be tied down in a relationship so he broke up with me. He insisted that we remain friends because he didnt want to lose me and we hung out a few times since the break up. He made plans for us but broke them and went to go party. I finally had enough and whenever he called or texted after that, I didnt reply (he didnt really ask me anything directly in the texts, all he said was that he was going to be by my house if I wanted to hang out or he would tell me what he was doing, not really ask me anything specific) A month later, I saw him and he asked why I was ignoring him and I said I have been really busy. This was the last time I talked to him, two months ago. Im pretty much over him and I thought that ignoring him completely was a mistake. I dont want a relationship with him anymore, because he cant handle it but I thought he would make a good friend in the long run. I saw him today and we said hi to each other and he looked happy to see me. I was running late so I was in a hurry and we didnt have time to talk. It was nice seeing him but I didnt really feel what I felt for him before. I texted him saying it was nice seeing him and asked how everything was going and he still hasnt replied and he usually takes less than 10 min to text back. I feel like an idiot now! Cant he even say "ive been good" or somethng like that? Why isnt he responding?

It's a difficult situation because there was a relationship and then an attempt at friendship. First of all, don't feel like an idiot because in the past you didn't want to be friends and that was because you needed time apart. But now it seems that he's doing to you what you did to him - maybe he feels there can't be a friendship. Whatever the case, if you really want to remain friends, you should text him and say that you think the time apart for both of you was good, but you'd like to try work at a friendship again because it was special to you. You might as well try this and see what happens. Whatever he does after this, the ball is in his court, but at least you know you tried your best to keep the friendship!
