writes:A year and half ago, I broke up with my girlfriend whom I dated throughout undergraduate and for nearly a year after. At the time I couldn’t grasp why we broke up and was guilty of all the stereotypical recently dumped mistakes. Looking back I can see that it was mainly my fault, towards the end of the relationship I started to breakdown. I took her for granted and failed to take care of her or myself. My mood was infectious and seem to effect her even greater than myself. I do not blame her for her reaction, though I did at the time.Needless to say we broke off all contact, and I actually ended up moving away… quite literally to the other side of the world (an opportunity presented itself, and I took it something that I wouldn’t have done if I was still with her). She found herself a new guy… I found myself new girl. Then, six months ago I found out that she was single again, just weeks after I had ended my new relationship. I decided to send her a quick email asking how she was doing. I received no immediate response… But a few weeks later got one back wishing me a happy birthday (on the correct day of course). We exchanged pleasantries once again on Easter, this time the reply was the next day. Most Recently I let her know that I was making a trip stateside and would be in town. A week later she inquired about the dates so that we could catch up.So… Is she just being polite, or is there more to it? There was no reason for her to start answering my emails. I had sent her a few over the first six months that she never responded to. I also let her know I was in the states last time as well… I guess I’m trying to figure out how I should handle it when I actually see her again in three weeks? Its been 18+ months since I last saw her.
