dear internet,
i just told the guy (via SMS) i fell really, really hard for and who really broke my heart and who i haven't seen in almost 3 months (tho we're sort of in email touch as 'friends') that i don't love him anymore. which is not true. i still do, if i let myself, but i know i have to get over the whole mess and i'm otherwise doing quite well. was sending the SMS:

    I think it depends on the context of the the sms. If it was out of the blue, then I think it is probably kind of petty.

    But if you guys have been discussing your relationship and stuff then I think the sms part isn't a big deal.

    In my opinion it wasn't good or bad. In the end the message was probably just irrelevant. Whether he is of the opinion that you love him or not shouldn't affect your ability to move on. The only reason I think it would help is if the guy does think you still love him and, because of that, has been actively pursing you or acting on that information in a way that makes you uncomfortable.

    Just sending a message completely out of the blue to an ex just to say you don't love them anymore, especially if they've been acting normal and keeping a low profile, is more just a slap in the face. Unless, of course, revenge was your purpose.
