We've both agreed on giving each other some space for a week or two to think things through. I haven't spoken to him since Monday but the last two days we've emailed each other. I didn't email him today but he emailed me just to say "HI". I wasn't expecting to hear from him at all. I didn't respond back simply because he said he wanted his space. I don't understand why he emailed me. Could it be that he's missing me and he may be realizing that he could be losing me or is it something else? Reply to this Question Share |

I think he is missing you and he seems to have no patience to wait to hear from you :-)
You could e-mail back and tell him you have both agreed on giving each other some space for a week or two to think things through. But e-mailing is not giving this space. So to give you the space you need he should wait e-mailing for the date you agreed to come in touch again. Don't e-mail back saying how you feel and what you are doing. Be decided, but be friendly.
Wish you a good decision and good luck!

Sounds like he is missing you, but tell you what dont reply as you have already stated, and just see how he reacts to that.
If he is really missing you he wont be able to hold back from another e-mail, this time expressing a bit more of how is feeling than "HI".
Just use this time to see what he is really thinking. You have the upper hand here use it to advantage.
