A female , anonymous writes:

my ex and i have been talking for a few months..we might eventually see each other slowly. He isn't ready right now. I do still care about him and would love for us one day to get back together.

I called him last night and he picked up..we spoke for about 10 minutes but then i think a family member started asking him something so he said he would call me back. He called back 20 minutes later or so and I missed the call by probably a second..When i called back it went to his voicemail which means he was probably dialing out and calling someone else. I called again and it was ringing and he was probably on the phone. He calls back after 20 minutes or so and we speak for about 15 minutes. He then said his brother is calling, hold on. He eventually switches back and said he would call me back

Over an hour goes by and no call back and it was about 11:45pm. I decide to text him just saying night, have a good day at work tomorrow. The message wasn't delivered on his phone til an hour later which i don't get why. Did he turn it off or something? Was he with a girl suddenly? But i guess i shouldnt think like that.

I texted him to show i am not angry to show no attitude and that if he got busy or something then its no problem and to have a good day tomorrow..I guess i wanted to show i didn't care BUT in a positive way. Is that bad?

I honestly believe that the invention of mobile phones, the text, the email are ALL EVIL!! Why? Because you cannot see the other person.

Maybe this guy had a momentary glitch where his signal was lost, maybe he sat on the toilet a little bit too long - nevermind you cannot see him so please do NOT drive yourself bonkers trying to guess.

Let him miss you a little and he can contact you next. You both need to see each other in order to talk about your relationship - past or future, you must not attach too much meaning to a text etc meaning are too often misconstrued of mis-read in this way.

Leave him to have some time to himself and get to missing you. You on the other hand, get busy and go on social's with friends and maybe even on a blind date to boost your confidence. You might think you dont need it but beleive me you will learn more about yourself and in turn, more about what it is YOU want from a relationship.

Dont pressure yourselves, life's complicated enough.

Just Diana agony auntYou are being paranoid, and probably for good reason. You are ex's for a reason. Get on with your life.
