I need advice: I miss my ex!!! Help me!!!

My ex and I have been broken up for about a year now and I miss him like crazy. We were together for 5 years before we broke up and I just can not find a way to get him out of my mind. His new girlfriend moved up here to live with him and I think that is what is keeping us from being at least friends. We ended our relationship on a bad note without any closure and I really feel that we need that, because other wise I don't think I would ever get over him. We saw each other about 4 months ago and he really didn't have to much to say to me, because it seem to me that I was the one doing all the talking. I really want to email him and see how he is doing or for the most part just want to say hi and ask him a few questions about a vacation that I am about to go on. Do you think it is wrong to email him and say hi and see how life is going? I really just miss him!!!

    Its not like youre asking him to marry you or anything, email him and ask your question. I would start off by saying "Hi, it was so good to see you, glad youre doing well. shen you have a few minutes, i was wondering if you could tell me (whatever it is you want to know).

    then end the email with something like i regret that things ended badly, thats not what i wanted, i hope we can put it behind us and be friends.

    Been there, let it go....IF (and thats a big IF) you two were to get back together, you would only be used by him. YOU deserve better.

    Good things come to those who wait.

    I know how it feels but try and move on - you are special and deserve someone who loves you!!!Like yourself and don't chase him - if it is meant to be it will come- trust the universe

    Why dont you let things be the way they are? Pestering him cheapens you, and his new love wouldn't give you a chance

    You need to let him go because it sounds as though he doesn't appreciate seeing you very much and he's moved on and wondering what your problem is by insisting on being friendly. If he is angry with you you're just setting yourself up to be used and hurt by him or even just riddiculed. I never understood why people who break up insist on being thought of in a positive light anyway it's a little selfish.Take the hint he's giving.

    I'm going through the same thing right now, it seems really hard to move on but you have to. He has gotten on with his life(new girlfriend) try to get on with yours. I know it is hard not to call him but stay strong. Good things will happen to you and if it was meant to be it will happen.

    Been there. I know how hard it is, but leave it alone. You will end up looking like a desperate fool, no matter what spin you put on it, friendship, curiosity, bla, bla bla, all will know what you are up to. The best way to get him out of your head is to focus on yourself. I did things like started a strict exercise program, re-vamped my entire wardrobe, took some calsses, the best revenge is living well, so the next time you run into him he won't believe how HOT you are. Mind you he will probably not call or want you back, but he will think twice about having you! And a great bonus your new confidence will attract TONS of great guys.

    EMAIL HIM!!! It's the only way your gonna know how he feels or how he is doing. If you don't hear back from him, he's moved on & life is great. I totally know how you feel, my ex and are the same way. But he and I have been split up for about 5 years. Good luck!
