Hi Connie,

Since, it was a simple e-mail, he was just saying he missed you, although that was sweet, he did not state was his intentions are. It seems he is confused and unsure of what he really wants. If you did get back with him, do you think things would get any better, or would you feel frustrated, confused, unsure, doubtful? He did not say in his e-mail that he still loved you, or that he needed you in his life, he really did not make much effort at all to reach out to make you a part of his life again..really he did nothing, except leaving you confused.

When my ex wanted me back, he came over with flowers and chocolate and asked for forgiveness, and a second chance to make things right. To prove himself that he had changed. That he wanted a committed relationship. Your ex e-mailing you “I miss you”..not enough effort. If he really wanted to be with you, he would be.

So, maybe just play it cool. Just write him a short e-mail saying “Hi, it’s nice to hear from you, I miss you too” that’s it. Then make him work for you. If he does not work for you, he is not wanting anything at this time. Maybe all he was doing was “just missing you”. Let me know your thoughts?
