Dear Breakup Girl,
If you do dump him, then realize it was a bad idea, how do you ask him back out
without letting him think that he has you wrapped arounnd his finger?
-- Just Curious
Dear Just Curious,
Here's how: pick up the phone, dial all but one digit of his number, hang up
the phone, and wait two weeks. Why? IMPORTANT BREAKUP GIRL MAXIM: having
lingering feelings for an ex does not necessarily mean the breakup was a
"bad idea." It just means you kinda sorta miss someone that you had
some good times with. If you really, rationally think that you want another
chance (and you have at least two friends who endorse this decision), then
after two weeks, you may actually call him and ask him out. Once. Casually. If
he says no, let him go.
Love,
Breakup Girl
