Sorry for the length in advance. I'm 16/f and over the past few months I keep catching my ex boyfriend looking at me. when we walk past eachother we always have awkward eye contact and when I walk into a class he always looks up really quickly, realises its me then and realises I'm looking at him, then looks down again. We did have a 'thing' going on some months before but he stopped talking to me. He always used to text me first and when he stopped I didn't text him because I thought he'd gone off me. Then a few months later he tweeted that he hates texting girls first because it makes him feel unwanted and I wondered if that's what he felt with me or whether he did actually want to stop talking to me? If he doesnt want to talk to me anymore, what is with all this eye contact!? I'm so confused!
I'm guessing that's what he felt. He probably wanted you back but wasn't sure how you'd feel about it.
There's that saying that goes "if you love something, set it free. if it comes back to you then it was supposed to be".. well maybe he "set you free" by stop talking to you. If you text him back, you "came back to him" because you made the effort to talk to him. [ lovealways1221's advice column | Ask lovealways1221 A Question ]

Do you know, three months ago, this was me. In fact, I think I did write a question like this on here! So I'll help you out...
Obviously, exes are still going to have feelings for each other. I still have awkward eye contact sessions with my ex in college!
You're confused-but he'll be more confused. Why? because he texted you first, so its as if you're not interested, yet he catches you looking at him.
I know how it is, you can't stop yourself sometimes, and 9 x out of ten he's looking right back at you. awkward.
So you need to decide what to do. Move on, or make contact. if you carry on like this he will make contact because guys don't like being confused and what to know exactly how it is. If you want to get back with him, smile every time you catch his eye.
If you don't, when your eyes meet-and try to make them not- roll your eyes or look totally busy and engaged in something else.
The truth is, only he knows why he's looking at you. And only you know deep down why you have the urge to look at him. Adress why this may be, and then plan you're next move from their.
