Ok so I texted… Waiting game now xD
Kaila how did he used to invite you to do things? Was this the way he did it before?
He never invited me to anything!
He already answered!
Made a bit of conversation, used smilies, asked about my dad (I said I had lunch with him today), and asked if I wanted him to ask the price for a second person going on a bike (me in his bike) 
it’s looking good! He could have just ignored the issue altogether, but I guess he wants me to go! It’s so weird xD AND today he liked an album of pics I posted a few days ago! He hasn’t “liked” anything on my profile for more than two months! 
So I guess we will be together this saturday AGAIN. The. whole. day. Lunch+dinner+boat ride ihey
Hey @kaila, thats great news! I was just about to reply by saying maybe you should ask whos going on his bike with him. But now you have the answer!
Thanks for posting a comment about my situation yesterday. I have replied to you if you get chance:

@Oshi, take it slow. See what is happening to me now? I need to keep calm though cause I’m getting way ahead of myself already thinking we are getting back LOL
@nycor we have been talking already but you can keep using this thread to talk about your story 
Kaila-that’s exciting news!! Good to hear you got a very positive reply!
Yes! Thank you I will answer in a bit pixiepie. Do you want me to take a look at your thread dragongirl?
@kaila: I’m so happy for you! that sounds really promising! But as you said you should stay calm and most important take it slow! I hope you’d have a great day with him! I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you!
I also have an update about my situation. I would appreciate if you’d take the time to read it and tell me your opinion
Yesterday I’ve texted him asking how is doing. We kept texting each other for a while. I asked him if he remembers his promise to have a drink together, he said yes and then said that it bothers him that I still have feelings for him. I told him that my intentions are just to stay friends and that I already seeing someone. (I’ve met a new guy lately and we’ve been talking for a while) at first his comment was “Wow nice, I’m happy for you” Then he said okay and we arranged a meeting on the same day.
While I was on my way to meet him he called and asked where I am so he can pick me up, I told him that I’m going to be a bit late, and he said that he has another meeting with a friend after this and that it was unexpected.
Turned out everything was closed because of the holiday, so we went to play snooker together. It was fun, he was teasing me like always, after the game we talked for a while in his car. We talked openly about stuff from our relationship. He asked me questions about this new guy I’ve met. I don’t know why but suddenly I had this confidence in me, I was calm and cool all along I told him a bit about this guy and then he said that also some girl from his work that I don’t know tried hitting on him and he turned her down. The thing is that I know all his friends there and he always told me if someone tried anything and he even tried to make me jealous sometimes just for the fun of it, so it could be that he’s making this up or trying to make me jealous.
Then he walked me to the bus station and while waiting we kept talking, he was smiling a lot and it felt like we both opened up to each other. Before I got into the bus I mentioned something about this guy and then he asked if he’s handsome and nice and I said yes, I could see that he was a bit nervous. Then he said that if he’s not “the one” then I could meet someone else. I said that I know what I want, then gave him a quick hug for goodbye, he said “oh already?” and then I got on the bus.
Yesterday at 2 am he posted a picture on facebook with his friend hugging some girl, (His friend likes hitting on girls) and him on the side smiling, he tagged her as “random girl” LOL and tagged her even before his friend. also posted another picture of him and his friends smiling with some song lines to show how happy he was.
If I’m not mistaken then I think he’s a bit jealous, I don’t know if I did well telling him about this guy, but it definitely changed something in him.
Also I was on a date with this new guy, he is nice and all but I’m not thinking to continue this. found it hard dating someone while still thinking about my ex.
@Oshi I think you definitely made him think, at least that. And before he was considering meeting up and then he decided to do it after you said you were seeing someone. And his story might be totally made up yes. Let me know of any advances, I have a sense he will probably start to text you more often.
Ok so, today I texted him asking if he already had news cause I saw in the event the registrations for it were closed already. He said they answered saying the price is the same. I said “ok, what do you think?”. He said “it’s your choice if you want to pay to go bla bla bla, but tomorrow its probably gonna rain x)” “I said yeah whatever let’s do it”. He then said “Don’t take this the wrong way (which wrong way?) but if you are doing this just for me, there are more events similar to this, even free ones bla bla bla (I had to erase the text, I don’t remember right now) kisses”. I got a bit nervous thinking what to say and I was in tutoring, so he sent an “?” and I answered “sorry, I’m in tutoring right now I can’t even think. Let’s do it”
Well… First… I don’t get it, is he just trying to be my friend? He has always offered to pay stuff for me, why isn’t he like “ok, I want to see if this can happen between us, I like her, I’m gonna pay”?
Second, if he is saying there are more events, maybe it means he wants to do more of these things with me so maybe thats good?
Third, the fact he has a sense I might be doing this for him… Might be a good sign, that he aknowledges and is ok about me trying, and he is letting me try. But also, am I showing weakness on my part?
Am I ruining things again? This is too stressful…
I didnt like at all his sentence where he said ‘dont take this the wrong way, but if you are doing this for me, there are similar events which are free etc…’
As if he was trying to say that u should go only if u want to attend the event and not just to see him… As if he wanted to indirectly tell u not to have high expectations from the trip?
I would re-consider the trip…
But U know him better…
I think he is being considerate of my situation. He is actually thinking I’m only going for him. The bad part of that is that might come out really needy. I wouldn’t want my ex to pay more money than he could JUST to be with me. This tells me we can be together other times. It’s the vibe I’m getting
@kaila Could it be that he meant to say this in a positive way? Like maybe he’s trying to be nice and telling you that you don’t have to come if you don’t really want to because it’s expensive. It seems like he’s aware that you’re trying to spend more time with him and still willing to hang out with you. Also he was the one telling you about this event in the first place, so why would he tell you that and describe all these activities if he wouldn’t want you to come?
I think most of what he said was in a positive way. I don’t see the “don’t take this the wrong way” in a bad way. I see it as him like “I know you would like to go and all but if you are just doing this for me, you don’t need to. We can go to other events.” And I do think that’s very positive.
But I’m afraid an oportunity like this might not come up so soon
Also i think its apparent to him I am really willing to be with him and even then he is not trying to stay away from that. He could have just ignored.
@kaila I agree! It seems like it was in a positive way
I still dont know if I should go. What do you think
he just said there willl be other events in the summer and even another one like this next year. im pretty sure he isnt REALLY thinking of getting back already to the point he is putting the option out there of us going together next year, or even this summer -.-’
so my guess is he doesnt want me to go anymore
Ok so, I said that last weekend wasn’t enough bike riding and I was already ready for more. He didn’t answer so I texted saying I was going to sleep and that I didn’t know what he told the guy but if I could still go tomorrow to tell me, and “if you want of course. no problem, really kiss” He didn’t answer but I wasnt expecting for now.
Well we’ll see. Im kind of freaking out 
maybe he felt too much pressure or thought yeah she just wants to go for me, I have no idea. I also don’t know what he meant by “there will be events this summer and another like this one next year”. I would like to think he still wants to get back and after all this this past week, even his texts have been more similar with those we exchanged while together (minus the cute names and stuff), so maybe he is turning around a bit and he genuinely considers a big possibility we might be together by them.
I mean I read your ex talking about the future with you in it is a good sign. Let me know what you think guys thank you and sorry if I haven’t been as supportive. It’s been almost 4 months and now that I’m seeing developments, I just want to make sure I do the right things
*we might be together by then
I guess I’m oficially not going 
another missed opportunity. I’m sure I’m gonna regret this
@kaila Why didn’t you go? Did he say anything again? Because from your messages it looked like everything is set. Don’t worry, you’ll have more opportunities to hang out with him. I was depressed as well on the holiday because we couldn’t meet up, but as I thought of this more I realized that it doesn’t matter and that we would have more opportunities in the future. I think you should wait for him to contact you, maybe he would ask why haven’t you came. Then tell him that something came up and you couldn’t go, so it would make you look busy like it’s not your first priority to hang out with him.
