What to do after the elephant in the room

So last week I saw a small sign that my ex was in the ‘Missing you badly’ stage so I wrote an elephant in the room letter. Basically word for word from an example just making it personal. It’s been a week since I’ve sent it. At the end I said that I’d like to tell her about some of the exciting changes I have coming up in my life and I casually suggested that she should text me. I’m just wondering what I should do next? Hold tight for another week and if nothing should I text her like suggested in the plan? Should I write another letter and if so what should I put it in? Maybe just the same content as a text message? Looking for some guidance and suggestions.

What was the “sign” you saw that makes you think she is missing you? Did you meet up with her in person?

I don’t know how long you were together, why she broke up with you or how long ago the breakup was, but you could have included some of the exciting changes in your life. She needs time to digest what you wrote, so give her more time to think about it. If the elephant letter included taking responsibility for your part in the breakup, maybe an apology, and what changes you intend to make so that a reconciliation might be possible, then you’ve done the best you could for now. I might add that texting might not be the best way to communicate personal or serious matters. So maybe in another week, if she doesn’t contact you, you could call her if you think she might speak to you on the phone. Good luck.
