Would you text or play it "cool"?

[beebbeep]

Just started speaking to a ex who I still have feelings for.
We've been texting for a few days.
I know in the past I've been too texty and maybe annoying??
We spoke today earlier on.
Would you wait till maybe Sunday to text him again?
He sent the last text but it wasn't really anything to reply too.
We have had good convos and he's been telling me about his new job and sending me pics of his new house etc
So basically would you text anymore today ? Or play it cool?

I would wait...

He's an ex for a reason I'd keep it that way, feelings or not.

Don't text him again today. Let him initiate some conversations first and definitely play it cool.

But also, I know you still have feelings for him but remind yourself that it ended for a reason - is it really wise to go back there? Meant kindly

So glad I'm over 30 and thus finished with these games. Text if you want to, don't if you don't.

I’m not a fan of “rules” and strategising like this: ultimately someone has to accept you as you are or not at all. If you want to text, do it and own it.

That said if he’s an ex and if you have form for being a bit needy it might be wise to take this slowly and calmly. Don’t over-invest yet.

Why did you break up?

It's been a pretty even based chat.
We started chatting Wednesday and it's continued since.
He messaged me then I would message something etc etc

We broke up as he didn't want serious.
I'm not sure I wanted "serious" but he wanted to play around.

I have been known to text a bit too much at times that's why this time I don't want to look needy.

Why did you split up OP?

I think at times I came on too strong.

Wait until he's moved into his new house!

I had a bit of a thing with a guy I met through a friend last year. He ended it after a few weeks. I did wonder if I was maybe messaging him a bit too much but I liked talking to him. Mutual friend thinks I was maybe being a bit clingy. Based on my experience I'd say give it a couple of days. I know it's hard, though!

WAIT

If you are afraid that a few too many texts will put him off, then walk away. You deserve a man who is excited to hear from you.

Who told you you were coming on too strong?

He backed off before so I assumed I was.
He was taking ages to reply and then out of the blue he ended it saying I wanted too much too soon.
Fast forward to now and we are speaking again and it's nice and I love talking to him.
I love being around him.
Love everything about him.

Wait. If he sends you a message that you can reply to in future maybe just send an emoji of some sort as an acknowledgement x

Meant to say can't reply too. X

Do you love how it feels when you message him and he keeps you hanging for a reply?

Given how things went before I would be as cool as possible.
