    Thank you for your words they give me so much hope.

    Yesterday we all go out from 3p.m till 7 p.m. I usually go to his house with my car and then we all meet there and decide which car to take. We took his, so when we were going back he drop his friends at their home and I was the last because my car was at his house.

    He invited me in for bit.

    My friends invited all of us to see the fireworks at the lake that night,so I asked them if they wanted to go, but they all had plans , except for my ex which told me that he needed to check if he could.

    I told him that the fireworks were late so he could take all the time he wanted to do his things , in fact he wanted to workout first. So we left together, I went home and he went to workout, but he said to come to his house at like 9.30 p.m.

    While I was home he sent me a message to ask me if I could go a later, and I said that there were no problems and to do his things without rush.

    So in the end we went just the two of us and we met our friend there.
    Everything went great like always.

    After we came back to his house he invited me in again , since it was not late and we were not tired at all I said yes,and we eat something and play on the computer a bit.
    aaand that’s it when we were tired he took the dog out with me so I could go to the car , we said bye and he said to be careful and I went home.

    I succeded in set a date for the cinema , not a “date-date” , just going to see a movie for wednesday at 5.35 p.m…so maybe it could continue later in the evening, maybe a simple dinner or something,and that’s the last time that movie is out.

    SCARCITY:

    I really need help there….because I don’t have guys ,who he don’t know ,to bring, because those are from my university and they are from another city.
    I made some new friends saturday at the birthday party of my friend and I talked about them with him especially about one , and he actually asked me who he was.
    I couldn’t lie ,especially if he see him on facebook, so I told him that he was my friend’s boyfriend, but I told him that he was almost too cute to be with her, but that’s it.
    I can just talk about them because they are from another city far away from ours.

    I know that I should create scarcity but how can I do it in these conditions?

    Ehy !

    well everything is going great …I think…
    We became more closer, friday was perfect.

    Finally we could go to his home “gym” and we were both free in the morning because I had to go to a birthday party that evening , so we decided to do it in the morning.
    Well I had to do an exam but in the end I couldn’t finish to study for it so I ended not doing it, but since I was stuck at the train station he first said that he’ll pick me up but then he called because he had a problem with the motorbike and so he ask me if it was a problem for me going to his house directly.
    So I went there and he told me that he needed to go to the mechanic and if there was a problem for me going to.

    So we were on the road and after a bit we passed our old highschool and he proposed to go and say hello to our old teachers. We made the round of hellos and talked a bit with some of our favourite teacher, everyone of them told me how great and beautiful I became and they told him to watch out for other guys because I was a catch, but we said that we were just friends now…. (much for my despair ahahah).
    we went to look for our old classes and laboratory and then we went to take he motorbike to the mechanic.

    He had to leave it there because it needed something that I didn’t fully understand, but now we were on foot.

    We could go to his home now , but he proposed to stay out for a bit since we were already in town. So we went for a walk we talked and joked a lot , it was so much fun.
    The mood was really great and after some times he said that we could grab a drink and something to eat ( it was noon), we talked a lot then he went to the restroom and when he came back I said tha we should go and pay( it was like 1/2 p.m ), but he said that he already paid.

    When we finally came back to his house we needed to wait for his mother to come back because we needed the car to go to his granny’s house,so we rest a bit.
    While we waited I said that I finally passed an horrible exams that hounted me for two years, and I said:
    -it’s like an enormous dark negative cloud has been lifted from my back,I’m feeling so free and happy and great right now
    and he said grinning:
    -I’m really happy for you!, I always told you that you were negative and depressed for university for that exam.

    When we finally were in the car ,while on the road , we were having an animate talking about something that I don’ even remember, but at some point he called me “love”,like he used to do when we were together.
    He was a bit taken back by it , but he said sorry, and I said sweetly to do not worry about it, and everything went back to normal without being akward.

    Finaly we could do what we came for so we went for a run ( I could finally let him see my progress on the fitness side). It was the funniest workout ever πŸ™‚ .
    Then he made me do some exercise and we planned my workout….by the time we finished it was 7p.m and we were together since 10 a.m .

    He then offered to give me a ride home because he didn’t want me to catch the bus, before I get out of the car I said thanks hugging him and he hugged me back massaging my back. We said bye and he said to have fun that night and I did the same thing…..aaaand he went home.

    This was one of the greatest day that we ever had….we had so much fun and we actually looked like a couple even if we didn’t kiss,or hugged o hold hands…

    Yesterday our two friends came back from vacation and they invited me to go out to dinner at the restaurant of one of them (the owner’s son ), and the same where my ex work. It was very late so we were like the last people and the waiters were always at our table to chat, my ex included. They actually teased him about me a bit, but well…great night.

    We’ll see eachother today too with everyone.

    …I think it’s going great, we became closer but I realy don’t want to be stuck in the false F.
    So I could ask him that maybe we could hang out ,just the two of us, more and without labes…just to enjoy eachother company like we did and see where it takes us.

    He still don’t have anyone …nor a flirt…nothing apart from our friends.

    hey!

    …unfortunately the next night he told me that the necklace broke…oh god this is so stupid, but I felt so bad that I was gonna cry, but I held it togheter.

    But I could see that he felt really bad too about it and he kept all the pieces that he could find.
    I said that he wasn’t his fault of course, but he kept asking me if I was angry at him and to tell him what I was thinking.
    Well I said that of course I wasn’t angry, just sad because I really like it , but that it was normal that I felt like that,it wasn’t his fault in any way ,there was nothing to do about it and that I was happy that he kept the pieces so that maybe I could try to repair it…that he needed to stop worrying about it.

    Yesterday we all went to an happy hour, and there was latin music which I alway liked a lot.
    After some time it was time for a latin class! So having changed so much I was all for it!
    (I was really shy and concerned about my body and hated to be in the centre of the attention).

    So I asked my girl friend to come with me, his boyfriend followed us and so did my ex. Everything started really great but then they asked us to form couples….like yeah this is going to be akward. I went back to the table with the intention of sitting down, but my ex called after me and invited me to dance with him.
    I was a bit speachless but I said yes…wouldn’t that be rude to say no..? maybe he would’ve thought that in the end I wasn’t confortable,and that’s not good right?.

    Yeah well we danced following the teachers…ahahah we were really clumsy and messed up the steps, but we did have fun. Problem: it was very hot, between spicy meal,alcohol and a bit of anxiety…well I was really sweaty. He knows that I sweat a lot but I felt really bad anyway, I was feeling really gross but I didn’t show it. ugh damn it body!
    Anyway everything went well as always but that’s was the first time we danced and that we were so near (not counting that night), it was realy fun and nice.

    Well I’m guessing that everything is alright for now….patience right? πŸ™‚
    September will be the last mounth withou class, and I hope to work hard like I’m doing so far.

    Hey!

    Maybe this is stupid but yesterday we went out in group, we were in 5, me ,him, his best friend and two other guys. So yes it was like it was in the good old days of our relationship.

    We went to a city by the lake, and the last time I went there was with him a lot time ago,also during the walking around we passed near the restaurant were we had our first anniversary.
    The last time we went in that city we saw that it was closed for good, so when I saw that it was still open I pointed it to him.
    So the night went great ,I touched him casually and with affection but did not overdo it because I don’t want to scare him away, so it was just touching his arm when beginning to talk to him , or hit him softly and joking for something stupid or some joke that he did.

    I noticed something that I don’t know how to read …

    A week before the break up , he came to talk to me to have some kind of a break….he said that he didn’t want to break up but thing couldn’t go on like this and we needed time which he set it at 1 week.
    I accepted more for him than for me because I just wanted to make things right that same day, but I let him have that week.
    Before he went home I gave him a necklace that he always liked and he asked me many time to gave it to him as present because he really liked it.
    I gave it to him saying that it was so that he could think of me, but I never said that he could have it forever, I mean I didn’t think he would leave me at all…so….

    Well never see it again.

    During the beginning of the NC I talked about that to his mother who was a great help during hard times. She said that he was using it but as a keychain on his backpack.
    I was happy that he was using it.

    So yesterday I was in his house with his friend and we were waiting for him to get dressed. When he was time to go , I saw that he was wearing it!…

    I gave him a bracelet as a gift for an anniversay and he almost never wear it, but he wear that necklace?
    I mean….it doesn’t have a great history behind, at least for me…it wasn’t a great time, and yet he wears it..? and it was the first time he wear it after we reconnected

    Do you think it could be a good sign…?

    Hey guys UPDATE!

    So finally I asked him about helping me with planning my workout with him. Here’s the text that I sent him:

    Hi! I want to ask you a favour. I need to change my workout but I can’t spend 20euro because I need to pay for the gym membership in september. I know that you’re good at it so I wanted to ask you if you’d like to help me plan my workout, maybe when you go to so I don’t steal time from your studies ;D.

    his reply:
    yes yes, it’s alright, perfect

    mine:
    great! thank you, let me know when is ok with you then. bye!

    two days later I asked him how he was doing with the studies and we did some chit chat over text,I asked him what exam it was and said something about mine. I was the one to end it saying : I leave you to your study then! bye
    he said : ok thanks πŸ™‚

    Same thing yesterday but I also asked him about his motorbike since it was at the mech. good luck on the exams and that’s it.

    Soooo today is friday and it’s the day we all go out! yeah! ,I’ll wait till 5-6 p.m to ask him how the exam went and then about going out all together maybe suggestin a place we both like very much.
    like :

    hey! how went the exam?

    I’ll wait for the reply and then :

    How about for tonight we all go to [place] I wanted to try [a new thing that come out] for ages!

    hey..

    sorry I was feeling really down before, don’t know why …must be the wheather ahahah.

    I talked a bit with the other girl-friend of our group (which is the girlfriend of one of our friend, and she is often in contact with him ), just …I needed someone to talk to.
    I made clear with her that I was not feeling down for the night that I spent with him, just a bit under the tone about everything, but not for that because it just something that happened and that’s all.
    And I didn’t sound pitifyl,needy or other bad things or about the plan …..just some talk on the matter with him.

    I discovered that yes, my friend and him talked about that night, but she only knows that he just said to my ex that he expected him to told him because he knows him long before me. My ex said to him that he wanted to just wait when he was alone..and that’s it she doesn’t know the rest if there was any.

    She said a thing tho that made me feel better : she said that everything seems nice when we go out all together and that he often tell her that he finds me well and great and that everything is nice when we go out all together.

    about the him contacting me…
    I know…I know that I have to wait him to do it, but I know he will not do it…he never did because he never think about it..nor with me and nor with the others, we always had to be the one to contact him first o call him. He may be the one to call back if he doesn’t want to write too much or if he see a missed call.
    Don’t get me wrong,I’m not sending tons of text, no no I know that’s wrong and even if he didn’t respond ( which he didn’t have to do it since there was no question) I didn’t sent him anything to make him answer me really.

    I’ll probably text the others for matters related to the group, but I know that he won’t text me out of the blue like that, because he never does that with anyone

    Ehy….

    You sounds so positive for me…thanks.

    Sadly today I’m in a very bad bad bad shape….I’m panicking and I don’t even know why.
    I want this agony over, I want to be with him….and I’m trying to be in everyway without going out of the false friendship too soon and push him away.
    But I can’t read the signals!….I don’t know what to see…
    I’m so confused , and I like…swing between hopeness and misery.
    One moment I think I’m really close to him, and the moment after I feel that I’m still miles away .

    for exaple after the last message, the one when he responded wit : πŸ˜€ πŸ˜€ πŸ˜€ , I sent him another one today, which was connected to the one I sent him the night before,nothing special.

    he didn’t respond but I saw from his what up ( the text wasn’t on what up, because he never used it, but I saw that 22 days ago he began…I said to myself that its possible that he did to talk to my friend who use it a lot…I hope at least)
    anyway…his last login was after the text that I sent him, so he must have seen the notification of my text.

    There wasn’t any question to be answered in my text ….but I still feel really bad now, because it’s like he ignored me.

    Also…I still don’t think that there is someone else, but it’s a fear that never goes away and the only thought drives me mad.
    Especially since I don’t understand if that’s a positive thing or not…

    help, I’m a big mess now

    Is it a good move if I ask him about his work out?

    He is very egocentric and vain and he always asked me how he looked or if his muscle were visible ahahah

    Now he is very in shape, and I’ve already said that to him and he was happy to hear it.

    Now I’m too in great shape since he broke up with me, and I feel really good .
    I wanted to ask him to …uhm I don’t know …maybe help me plan my new work out? He is not a personal trainer but he knows enough and I don’t want to spend 20€ , that’s what I’m planning to say to him.

    Like maybe when he can we could go to his gym that he built in his granny’s house and that he said he would let me see it because he’s very proud of it.

    Maybe he could be the beginning of the idea of eorking out together

    also a silly thing happened…
    before we went out for a walk and after the cinema we stopped by his home because he needed to pick up something I don’t know.

    He came back with an apple because he was hungry. Ahahah we laugh a bit and I asked if it was a green one he said yes and I said yumm( those are my favourite).
    ahaha he asked me if I wanted it ahahahah and I took it from him saying : but I don’t want to grab the food out of your mouth since you are hungry ahah

    he said that it was fine he eat it a bit and then lent it to me to eat.

    When we were in his car, I was in the back seat , back the driver (him) ( when we were together I was often in the front), I passed my arm between him and the window to let him have another bite if he wanted, he said it was fine and that he was already full.
    When we went to pick another friend I asked him if he was sure about it and again lent him the apple, he took another bite and then I finished.

    just a silly thing that happened..

    Or maybe I should have done or said something different to have more his attention…

    Another thing that happened, when we were out after the cinema, when we were going back to our cars , the friend (the one which house was the one from “the night”) said to his girlfriend to go to us other for a bit, that he needed to have a “man talk” with my ex.

    Now…I don’t know what they talked about, but I really wanna know what, especially if it’s about that night….because my ex didn’t say anything to him and I was the one to say what happened to him since it was his home and his beds….

    i ‘m this worried for that….I want to know what they have talk about. i’m so worried and anxious

    Hi!

    I lost it a bit yesterday. Sorry.

    We went out with everyone to go to see a film. I actually was seated near him. During the film we talked a bit joking about it( it was comedy) we had a great time and we laughed a lot. Sometimes he was the one to come near me to talk and sometimes I was the one to do some comments about the film and to do that we had to be really close to do not disturb.
    Omg his smell was intoxicating.
    I wanted him to touch me or grab my hand so much that it was almost hurting.

    After the film who ended late, we waited for two friends more and we went to go for a walk in the city. Nothing big happened just talking and joking as always.

    Those two suggested that we go to the same party as the one from “that night”, so we made arrangments to go, but as always the others went home so we were just me,him and those two….like the other time.
    In the end we didn’t go but we stay out talking a bit more, just a few more laugh and then we went our ways home. He asked if I was ok going home alone since I seemed pretty tired, but I live near so I just have to do like less than a km and I was driving so….yeah no problem thanks.
    We said goodbye and he went in his car and I went in mine….and that’s it.

    I don’t know I think ecerything went well, but I can’t shake off the feeling that maybe something should have happen…? Or maybe not and everything was fine…
    I don’t know I’m a bit off today and I feel a bit voulnerable…

    Oh god I really want him back… But I feel like I’m drowning

    that was one of my fears!

    But after ending NC , I understand that I still want him in my life as a patner not just as a friend. I’ve grown up and I know that if he gives me the chance we’ll have an awesome relationship …I just have to come to that talk ahhahaha
