    My ex contacted me after a month saying he missed me and it's hard living without me. He broke it off and now he's regretting it more than ever!

    Why don't you think about the past? Your ex is part of the past. Leave it at that. And move on. Live in the present. Look forward to the future.

    AllyFedor I was dumped in October for the first time by the guy and not me for the first time in years! Yes is sucked but he will miss you and will reach out probably at some point. Trust your gut and be strong. I recently saw this ex and the time away was good I was strong and glad to see him but not goo- goo missing him. We are amazing!
