Question - (5 January 2009) 2 Answers - (Newest, 5 January 2009)
A female United States age 51-59, anonymous writes:

So, if someone you used to go out with invited you out but the conversation was awkward what would you do? Like it seemed like he wanted to be around you be really nervous? He asked me again this week but I don't know if i can keep hanging out if it's gonna be weird. I still love him alot I dunno if he's nervous of what i'm gonna say or do or if maybe he wants to tell me he's seeing someone else and loses his nerve? Anybody got anyway i gotta break the nervous tension? If I say somehting i know he's gonna say oh it's nothing we're cool/ He'll never let his guard down and admit he's nervous.

I always try to break the tension with humor. Laughter is a great ice breaker. It will calm him down and make him feel more comfortable. Maybe have a drink together that usually works too. Just don't go overboard and get drunk that could be a disaster.

Let him know how you are feeling but don't put him on the spot. Just take it slow and easy. Let things happen naturally. Maybe he's nervous because he is afraid you won't want to take him back. Just be patient and give him time to unwind!

My advice is if he isnt going to break the ice first..somebody has to. If you love him you should feel comfertable around him and conversation should come easy. Maybe just be honest..tell him your nervous and maybe he will be the same way. Relationships are all about taking chances and getting to know each other.

Good luck and I hope i helped!
