    He went in for robbing some people. Basically he was running with wrong crowd and they ratted him out. He was 21 at the time.
    My male friend doesn’t know him at all just was giving me his opinion from a male perspective. I just sent him a text asking for his email address. I know he’s at work now so whenever he responds and if he gives it to me I’ll express my feelings then. I hope this works ??

    He’s been out for awhile, so I’m assuming he turned over a new leaf. Most of us have done things when we were very young that we regret or wouldn’t even think of doing again. Writing emails would probably work out better (sometimes) because neither of you know when the other is available to chat.

    I hope it work too! Good luck!

    Yea, when we first started dating we talked about that and I was always telling him how proud I was of him that he learned from his mistakes and became a better person. I kept telling him he’d be an awesome motivational speaker to some of the kids in juvenile cause they would be able to relate.
    He just texted me his email so I’m going to think about what I need to write ?.
    Thanks for all the encouragement!!

    Hey Patricia,

    So I’m about to paste my email to him. Need your advice. Let me know if I’m taking too much a risk, what I need to add/subtract, etc. Definitely don’t want to be all over the place.

    Here it is:

    Ever since our meet up a couple of months ago I’ve thought a lot about you, things said and just everything in general. I’ll be honest I never really got over you. I just stepped back and accepted that you needed your space. If you’re not seriously dating anyone I’d like to try us again. Take it slow and get comfortable with conversation first.

    Okay, good luck and don’t be bummed out if he doesn’t reply right away.
    Remember, he needs time to think, lol. Keeping my fingers crossed.

    Hi RichBeauty, Have you received a reply to your note yet? If not, it was sent close to the weekend and maybe he’s probably taking lots of time to think about it. It is a lot to consider, right? Anyway, if he hasn’t sent anything yet, hopefully you’ll hear something sometime this upcoming week..

    Hey Patricia,

    No, I haven’t ?. I pray I hear from him though. I wanted to text and tell him to check his email but I know he checks it periodically for shoes so I’m hoping he saw it.

    Why does he check his email for shoes? Yeah, maybe he didn’t check it for a few days. Maybe send a text to check his email on Tues or Wed if you don’t hear anything by then. Still keeping my fingers crossed!

    He checks it for the latest FootLocker updates. He’s a tennis shoe fanatic. Yea, I’ll see if he checked it on Tuesday or Wednesday. Got mine crossed too!!!

    sorry to hop into this but i was jsut reading your thread and i really hope your story ends in a happy ending as it seems like a huge climax to happen and im on the edge of my seat reading lol. But i have been planning how to contact my ex again a month from now, and wondered howcmoe you didnt text it to him instead as it would seem more immediate? unless the email was ment for him to think it over? or perhaps if it was text and his lady friend saw she wouldve deleted it? My ex and i never really used email much except for discount coupons for retail stores lol. But do you think its best for me to hand write a letter and send it to her?? or text? My ex recently told me she is seeing someone and told me not to call her. If i send a text a month from now im afraid maybe he’ll see it and delete it?

    I’m hoping a happy ending as well!! I decided email versus text because it’s more informal and yes, it also gives him time to think about it and respond with what’s really on his heart… not rushed responses.
    I would say try email. Take your time and think about what you want to say. I’m sure she’ll appreciate it and just let her know you sent her something via email.

    Hey Patricia,
    Still no response and I haven’t reached out yet to see if he read the email because it hasn’t been a week. I’m still in a good positive mindset (even though a small part wants to say forget it). If I get a response I’ll let you know. Fingers crossed ?
