I miss my ex

We were together for about 6 and a half months... (and we used to chat for hours every day for 3 months before that), and then he just seemed to lose interest and finally broke up with me. The thing is I can understand it if he didn't feel that he loved me anymore, but you don't have to be in love with someone to miss them! He was used to me, and he just cut off all contact with me all at once, he used to love talking to me, I just don't get why he doesn't feel like calling every once in a while. He says hi online sometimes, but then he never really continues with the conversation... It's been a month and a half since we broke up and it just feels so over now, it's finally hitting me that there's no way we're going to get back together (and I don't even want to get back together with him). I just really miss him and don't know what to do. I thought I was getting over him but the other night I really missed him and called him up, and he was so nice and fun and kept me laughing the whole time, and I just miss talking to him. And I can't keep calling cuz it'll hurt more when I'm calling him all the time and he's never calling me.
What should I do? And I DON'T want to date anyone else!!!

Why not arrange to meet up with him one day and find out whats going on? Some people are genuinely rubbish at keeping up friendships when they don't see those people regularly. If they have other stuff going on then they kinda forget to actually arrange to meet up or phone etc-it just means that you have to make more effort which is really annoying (and you should say so too! :p:) and not that they don't like you anymore.

I wouldn't bother anymore contacting him, he's blatantly not interesting no more, well it's his loss just move on and find someone who will appreciate you more.

keep away from him!!

this happend with my ex. we were together, he called it off and we stoped talking for a while, i was getting on with my life (which was soooooo hard) then suddenly he comes back into it and we talk on the phone constantly and all my feelings come back he asks me out again, i dont say yes cos i know what hes like. then we have a massive fight and we havent talked in like 2/3 months. i still have feelings for him now which is bad.

OUT OF SIGHT OUT OF MIND

I broke up with my boyfriend yesterday. I don't love him anymore and I don't think that it is fair on him to continue something when I don't have the same feelings for him that he does for me. We've been together 16 months and it was a massive wrench, I felt like such a bitch the whole time. He's had a rough time of it lately I guess. Thing is, I would genuinely like to know how he gets on, whether he gets the job that he went for etc etc I just don't know how to approach him as he feels so hurt at the moment. Maybe the reason your ex hasn't spoken to you is because he knows how much you're hurting and doesn't want to make it worse for you? That's why I don't want to speak to my ex.

I think you should just stop trying to contact him, of course you are going to miss him you were going out with him for 6 months but you just need to try and get over it. try spending lots of time with your grilfriends and talking to them on the phone etc. Stop calling him if he wants to talk then let him make the effort but just be careful if he does suddenely call.
Also you have made a list of all the good things about him like he makes you laugh, which isnt going to help you stop missing him so try to stop thinking about that.
You need to try and move on, and that doesnt neccessarily mean date someone else.
hope everything works out.
