Is it ok to call after a break up?

Question

I broke up with him last week after being together for 5 months b/c of something he did.. I think he hasn't called me b/c he has to much pride to admit guilt... but I miss him so much and I kind of just want to send an email or something asking him if it's been this hard for him too?

I guess I feel like I'm giving in if I make the first move to get back together. And if he really cared, he would get over his pride, right? Maybe I should just wait a little longer? I just think it's sad that I might actually never see him again...should I just move on?

Answer 1

Hm.  You broke up with him because of something he did.  Yet you want to get back together with him? Sounds like a tough situation for you!

Maybe he did the thing he did because he wasn't into you enough?  If that is the case, maybe that is why he hasn't called you?

These are tough situations because if you call, you risk rejection and feeling like a putz.  ON THE OTHER HAND! If you don't call, you are answering for him.  In that case - you already have your answer as to the likelihood of you getting back together.

Good luck in this situation! I hope you choose what is best for you in the long run!  

Answer 2

save your life and dignity and pls dont call him.. the love might still be in your heart but it will hurt you more if you contact him..just give time and space..and lastly try to move on!

It's OK to call after a break up, but by calling you are putting yourself in a position to get hurt again.  If he's thinking of the break up as final (you'll know pretty soon if he is), each time you call or email him you'll put yourself in a spot to get hurt.

It's also OK to not call after a break up and keep walking.  

By the way, he may think you're not calling back because of your pride (which is exactly what you're thinking about him)!
