Question Posted Friday January 6 2006, 3:42 pm

I just got out of a relationship w/ a guy that I didn't talk to much before we started dating. He was a fun guy and I asked him to a dance and we got closer from there. Well, we broke up over a month ago, and he hasn't said anything to me at all really. He's smiled at me, but it's rare. I do want to keep a friendship with him even though he broke up with me. Should I talk to him first, or should I be patient and let it come...or tell him I miss talking to him? What would you do?

Additional info, added Friday January 6 2006, 3:44 pm:
We dated for almost 3 months. He's in the same room as me right now and we have one class every day at school. He's a nice guy, I just don't know if he's comfortable casually talking yet. How can I break the ice?.

definatly try to get a friendship back together! but be patient about it. if you put yourself out there and try to talk constantly right away hell assume you want to get back together. especially if you say you miss talking to him. i mean yeahh eventually say that but not right away. be like we used to have so much fun together. or we used to talk soo much. or omigosh it seems like i havent talked to you in forever! tell him that you really want to start talking again and become friends. and it helps alot if you just have random convos online too!

♥ Talk to him! You need to keep your friendship growing. If you wait for him you might never get the chance to be close to him again. Don't push things though. Start slow and try to rebuild your friendship!

You can go up and tell him that even though your dating relationship didn't work out, you would still like to be friends if hes willing to be. Tell him you miss talking to him.

If he broke up with you and you still want to be friends with him, then I don't see any reason why he would hesitate if he enjoyed talking to you too. :)

He sounds a bit on the shy side. I think you should give him some time. If he continues the behavior then you should talk to him first.

first of all, you have to decide what kind of friend hes going to be. Are you two going to be best buds? Hang out every month or so? Once youve decided what YOU want, then you can find out what HE wants. Talk to him about stuff that you know both of you are interested in. If its hockey, then talk about the latest game, if its cooking, tell him about a cool recipe you saw. Just let it come naturally, and dont force conversation. If things get awkward, lighten it up, or just stop altogether. It's your call, you HAVE the power!

It's all about what you'd be more comfortable doing. I would personally walk up to him and ask him how he's been and how school has been going. Be like "I haven't talked to you in a while! How have you been?" That kind of deal. You could tell him that you miss talking to him.. If YOU would be comfortable saying that.


Just start up a conversation. Talk about projects you have in the same class and ask him how he's doing in that class. It's just small talk. Take baby steps. You'll get there. It's only been a month, so don't feel shot down if he doesn't want to talk to you.
