Is it a good/bad idea to see my ex while I am near his town?

So I came here because I heard this was a good website to get honest opinions on relationship issues. So here's my story. My boyfriend and I were together for over a year when I got pregnant. I lost the baby and not long afterwards we broke up because we just couldn't handle talking to each other without getting extremely emotional over our loss. I blamed him, he blamed me, you get the picture hopefully.

Anyway, it's been about ten months since we broke up and over a year since we lost the baby. I have been with other men since, but I'm starting to feel empty inside. I miss him and I think he misses me (we've talked on the phone a few times over the past few months). I currently live in another state because I found a job and moved here for it. I'm going on vacation in a few weeks and I'll be in his area and I was thinking of contacting him to see if he'd like to meet up. His birthday is a week before my trip so I was thinking I should call him to wish him a happy birthday then mention to him that I'll be in town and ask if he wants to meet up.

Do you guys and gals think it's a good or bad idea? I'm not looking to start up a relationship again, but I would like to see how he's doing. I'll always have love for him and I really do miss being around him so I think it would be good for me to see him. What do you think?

I'm going to call him when I'm there, I don't want to do it beforehand. I know he's not seeing anyone (at least not seriously). I'm just afraid he'll think it's more than just a polite visit to see how he's doing?

Thanks for your advice though.

Sweet-thing agony auntIf he is not already in a realtionship with someone you mind as well give it a shot. My guess is, you are curious to see if there is still something there and he may be wondering that too. What have you got to lose?....go for it.
