Broke contact with friend. And want to be friends again...

Hiya, I've wrote an email but I havn't sent it because I don't know if it sounds too clingy... The thing is we stop contacting each other because he had feelings me for me and I didn't and then I had feelings and he didn't... and it ended up in a big arguement. It been 3 months and I miss him as a great friend! I don't have feeling for him at all and realised that he's fabulous as a friend anyway.

This is my email I'm going to send...Could you all tell me what you think about it?

Hi (INSERT NAME),
Anyway, (I don’t really know what to say on these sorts of things because it could come out all wrong but I just want to sort this out…).

First of all, we haven’t talked in months and I just want to let you know that I would like to get in touch with you again, we had great conversations and some of the moments we had were good; I just feel that it’s such a waste to stop talking to each other. It was probably my fault for blocking you to start with but I’m willing to sort it out if you are. I have no idea how you’re feeling about the whole situation…so could you let me know so I can just get this over and done with.

Well, I hope all is well with you and if you have a spare min, I would love to hear from you!

C ya

From (INSERT NAME).

Any good advice and help would be appreciated!

I think it looks pretty good and mature,. But i dont think you should say it was your fault, unless it is 100% true, Something must have been from his part to right? Youre saying you're willing to talk and all, so yall can discuss that later in that case, so he will probably appologize to..

i'd changeg the "some of the moments we had were good". it sounds like most of the time things weren't good which I doubt is the effect you want. even just changing the word order sounds better- we had some good moments. :smile:

Just out of interest, is this an internet friend?

Yes it is... I didn't expect anything to happen out of it but we just met up and found out that we have lots of common llike went to the same school, and know some of each other friends...etc.

How did you know btw? :redface:

ahh well you were talking about blocking them and losing contact, and i guessed that if it was a school friend or something then losing contact wouldn't be so easy :biggrin:

good luck getting your friend back :smile: if he valued you as a friend I'm sure he will be really pleased to get an email from you after such a long time :smile:
