And for how long have you dated him?

NO HE DOESNT HAVE ONE WE BROKE UP TWO MONTHS AGO AFTER 6 MONTHS OF DATING T^T BUTTTT our time difference is the worst like deadass its completely flipped and we probably wont see each other for a longgg time

Yeah but it only worked when we had guarantee you know , we knew we’d see each other on his trip because we planned it and I definitely dont plan on going to a college in his country, my parents wont allow it and we cant really afford it at the moment either :( we dated for six months before we broke up 2 months ago or was it 3 idk but its not been that long… Hannah man i rlly like H :((

I’d keep talking to him, and I’m not saying you should or have to start things up with him again, I’m just saying that it sounds like having him in your life makes you happy, so I don’t think you should say goodbye forever.
Keep in touch, and maybe one day you’ll find each other again.
Or yk, ignore me, cuz I have zero dating experience😶

For context: my ex, let’s call him H, and I had this rollercoaster of a beginning. He actually asked me out over email because I was grounded and had no other way to talk, and we’d sneak little walks with my dog since we were neighbors. Almost immediately after we got together, his family had to move abroad. We tried to keep it alive long distance, always thinking they’d eventually return because his parents are diplomats. Before we finally broke up, he even saved up his money and flew all the way back to my country just to see me. That was the kind of boy he was, the kind who would spend everything just to show up. But still, the distance felt endless, and my mum wasn’t exactly rooting for us either since she pictured me with a “good desi boy” instead. So we ended things.
Fast forward and he’s now at this dream school of his, let’s just say it starts with P and ends with N, studying architecture. Out of nowhere he texts me on a number he should not even have, telling me he got into the ice hockey team as a mascot like we used to talk about. It was so unexpectedly tender that I found myself smiling at my phone like a fool. Since then we’ve been talking again, and it’s pulling me straight back into memories. He was my only high school sweetheart, the only boy who ever felt like mine. But now he and I are standing on opposite shores, worlds apart, and I can’t tell if it’s me holding a seashell to my ear trying to listen for an echo of what once was, or if there’s still something real left between us. Life is nipping at my feet like a wave trying to pull me in, and still I stay where the sand burns.
Here’s the thing: I know I should probably stop talking to him, but I don’t want to. Part of me is scared to let go, scared to move on. Do you think it’s ever worth reopening a door like this, or am I just trapping myself in a memory?
TLDR: my ex emailed me into a relationship, moved away, even flew back with his savings to see me, now he’s at a really really really good school (also his dream school) and he’s texting me again while I stand half in the past and half in the present, not knowing which way to walk.
