Perfect texts to send your ex in 5 different situations

Sending out a text to your ex is never an easy task. For many, the very thought of connecting with someone they have shared their lives with leads to panicking and anxiety. But sometimes the situation demands us to reach out to an ex, and there is no way around it. In such a situation, it is always better to calm your nerves and approach it patiently. If you are thinking of connecting with your ex, here are perfect texts to send to them in 5 different situations.

If you are looking to reconnect with your ex in a platonic way, it is best to message them in a friendly manner or by mentioning something you both are comfortable talking about. For example: "I finally read that Dan Brown book you were always talking about. Should have known it would be amazing. Hope you are well.”

Oftentimes, while going through a breakup, we say a lot of bad things to each other. But if some time has passed, and now you want to apologize for the things you said, try to keep things short and simple. Also, there is no need to play the blame game or exchange too many pleasantries. For example, “I’ve been thinking a lot about what happened between us, and I’m sorry for how I acted. You didn’t deserve that.”

If you are trying to hook up with your ex, keep things short and flirty without coming across as too "available." If you haven't talked in months, here are some suggestions about what you should put in your message: “OK, I see you finally let your hair grow out. You’re looking good,” or “I’ve been thinking about you lately.”

It is possible for you to miss hearing from your ex and want to know how they are doing. When you are trying to generally check in, send a casual text about a recent event or a shared experience. For example, "Hey, what happened with that job you applied for?” or "Hey, I was thinking about you the other day and just wanted to check in. No pressure, but I would love to talk on the phone sometime.”

If you are trying to let the past stay in the past, set your boundaries, and that too unapologetically. Here's what you can write: “This will be the last text I send you, please respect this boundary,” or “I wish you the best, but I don’t think we should be in contact.”
