am I playing with fire??

Today after she has been gone 3 weeks and a little over 3 1/2 weeks since I've seen her, she emailed me today....nothing really just small talk. Just curious if this is ok or will it lead to talk that I and she aren't ready for.....She totally destroyed me with the news that she was leaving me, but I have been getting better in the days without her, but there are times I wonder what's up with her, I guess I can take it slow answer her emails and if it gets too personal then I can answer or decline....just curious on what others might think on this issue. I still care and wonder about her and her well being I just think 3 weeks is a little soon on her behalf, unless she's over it!!??? Advice on what anyone else would do or has done......

    It really depends how you feel. Not knowing the situation on why she left makes it hard to answer.

    If you don't want to be with her again, do not talk to her, even as friends.

    If you DO want to be with her again, a few short emails are ok, but you should discuss the option of getting back together quickly, before you have a chance to get your hopes up. If you talk for months, you may be heartbroken if she says she just wants to be friends.

    Being friends with an ex may seem like a good idea but it is NOT. One will end up feeling old feelings, or if not, the next relationship one enters into will have extra strain by an ex in the picture.

    There are many reasons why she may be contacting you. She may be worried about you. She may be having second thoughts about leaving. She may miss you, or some of us women, she could just want to make sure that you continue to miss HER, like she doesn't want to be with you, but it helps her feel confident that you still want her.

    Sorry this is so long, but hope it helps. Good luck.

    I guess it would depend on why she left. Did she need space? Did she leave you for someone else? Did she say she no longer loved you?

    Regardless, 3 weeks seems a bit soon. If she knows how much she hurt you she should not be playing with your feelings like this.

    Or she might be doing just that, playing with you. Or maybe she regrets what she did? Having 2nd thoughts? Or just seeing how mad you are... testing the waters.

    But again, I think it also depends on WHY she left.

    I have a friend, with whom I have an on line relationship. but it's going sour. in 3 weeks, he's told me that he was in the hospital for 2 of them, and then that he was having computer problems.

    I've sent out 5 emails to him that he hasn't answered, and I'm not sending any more.

    if he contacts me again, I'm not sure what I'll do.

    Honestly, if your goal is to get past the relationship, spare yourself a great deal of pain and cut ties. You don't need to email her or talk to her. Concentrate on you and what you want to do with your future. You don't need to worry about her.
