How can I reestablish contact with my ex?

Ok, I got dumped two months ago...he really didn't give an explanation other than that he wants a "fresh start." I spent the first month of our break up trying to convince him to give us another shot. I pushed a lot. But then I abruptly stopped. I...

made a conscious decision not to contact him for a month. I haven't initiated contact even once during this month, but he did send me an email once. However, the email was just a hey, how are you kind of thing. I am very confident in who I am and I know I do not need him or anything. But over the past two months, I have come to realize that he really is what I want. So please, please, please I would love to hear advice, suggestions, anything about how to re-establish contact and get him back.

well hun listen people date to find out who they want to someday marry... ifhe didnt feel that connection with u, I know its hard trust me... but you have to move on with it ... he may ave loved you but he may not have loved in the way to marry does that make sense?

You say that you are so confident in who you are, and that you dont need him. Then in the next sentence your saying that you've come to realize hes what you want........you are obsessing over him. The only reason someone wants to reestablish contact with an ex, is because they still want them. He let you go, so it was HIS decision not to have you in his life anymore! Time to admit that it's over and move on. If your ex wanted you back, he'd have been in touch and let you know. You wont have much of a future if you keep living in the past.

I know haw you feel. I was dumped 4 months ago and the pain is as bad as it was then. I too realise that I want my partner back and he is the one I want to be with. We are not young even both in our 30's. I did contact him adn I lied to him and told him I was over him , but would he consider just having sex. I knew he'd agree and we did a few times. The worse thing I could have done, because each time I leave him my heart brakes all over again. I am still trying to accept its over and that he doesn't want me but its hard. You could have one last chance and meet up with him and ask him if you two still have a chance. If he says no and gives you the reasons then you can walk away, knowing you tried one last time. Then let him go and move on, sometimes when you love someone you just have to let them go. Try that and see. Good luck.
