Questions for the guys, say you had a...

...really good relationship with female but it ended in a bad breakup? ...if you were contemplating on rekindling or even contacting female, how long would you leave things before making a move to patch things up?

[Carpe DM]

It really depends on how things ended and how strong the relationship was. If it was an intense relationship and I was trying to get over it then I might try to avoid you for a while.If I was over it and wanted to remain in contact and be friends then I would make it known. All guys are different though... so it depends on the guy. Some guys won't make that move and will wait on the girl because they feel like they should give the girl space.

anywhere b/w a week to about 3 cause girls can get a new guy very fast... sometimes even faster then a guy can get a girl. It depends how long the relationship was because some girls if they are in a really long one dont want to date anyone for a while after that and just wanna be dirty girls and hook up with every1 cause they felt like they missed the world when they were in that relationship

after a bad break up would not even consider contacting the ex...let sleeping dog lie and beaten up hearts mend....

I was in a similar situation a while back, I tried to maintain some type of communication or contact, it didn't work. What it took me a while to realize was that the realtionship really wasn't as good or as strong as I would have believed it to be.

im in similar situation, gf wants to go on a break to think things through, and its horrible, and within an hour of it happening i had sent a txt and spoken to her, but its her who wanted the break so i have to put up with not interferring with her day, i dunno, if u leave it too long she might end up finding someone else to focus on, dont jump in strait away, if she really liked you then she will miss you, but it varies, dont strangle her and crowd her with messages, cause that might push her away, depends how often u used to communicate/ how long its been, and as to why you broke up i suppose
