THE 3,892nd THREAD ABOUT AN EX.

[MY NAME IS ERIN]

TO MAKE AN EXTEREMLY LONG STORY SHORT...LAST YEAR I DATED THIS GUY FOR ABOUT 5 MONTHS. SO AFTER WE BROKE UP WE HAD LITTLE TO NO CONTACT. NO TEXTS, NO CALLS, NOT EVEN A QUICK HELLO IN THE HALLWAY WHEN WE WOULD PASS EACH OTHER.

OBVIOUSLY THIS UPSET ME BECAUSE I REALLY DO LIKE HIM AS A PERSON. HE'S FUNNY, GOOFY, CONSIDERATE, SMART, AND REALLY CUTE TOO.


NOW LET'S MAKE ONE THING VERY CLEAR...I DO NOT HAVE ANY FEELINGS FOR HIM!

NOW BACK TO MY POINT, ALMOST ALL OF OUR CLASSES TOGETHER THIS YEAR. AND PEOPLE ARE STARTING TO SAY HE STILL LIKES ME. NOW AS I HAVE SAID, I DO NOT HAVE ANY FEELINGS FOR HIM!

I WANT TO BECOME FRIENDS WITH HIM AGAIN. BUT IF HE DOES IN FACT LIKE ME, I DON'T WANT HIM TO GET THE WRONG IDEA.

SO HOW CAN I BECOME FRIENDS WITH HIM AGAIN...WITHOUT LEADING HIM ON?

"Hey, I miss hanging out with you, and I was wondering if we could be friends again." (Wait for his reply.) "Oh, and I hope you don't get the wrong idea and think I like you in 'that' way. I really just want to be friends again."

Use whatever words you'd like, just be clear. Guys like it when girls are direct with them and don't beat around the bush or give vague responses. Be honest, be straightforward, and you're golden. =) If he takes your words and twists them in order to believe something else is true, then that's NOT your fault.
