To message my ex-best friend?

My best friend and I had a disagreement in January. I was uninvited from a group night out by him and when I asked him about it, he got really arsey. He had also been unkind before that which I called him out on, so the friendship had become somewhat fragile. Despite this, he was my best friend and we texted each other a lot each day and shared our lives with each other.

After the disagreement, he blocked me on social media and we haven't spoken since. I have seen him around six times in our local city on the commute but he pretends he hasn't seen me and I walk on by. The problem is, I really miss him terribly. I have been thinking about getting in touch with him, but if he didn't reply, I wouldn't cope with the rejection too well. Has anyone else been in this situation?

He sounds like a knob. That's before your falling out, and after. Is him actually him that you're missing, or just having a best friend? I have a relationship I'm struggling with right now, and I'm trying to stay strong because I know it's the contact I miss, not the actually knobhead individual.

@FarmGirl78 I think it's the actual relationship. The fun we had and the closeness. The meeting up and the fact that it was constant contact was exciting. I really looked forward to his text messages and seeing him in person.
