The crab Man I dated...were good..friendly even thou he chose another girl over me but I understand and I have no hard feelings. I still like the man. Yesterday I commented on a photo he took on vacation and he texted me immediately and said missssss you. He does have a g/f and the girl doesn't know me of course. I texted him miss you too and that I'm happy for him. So in what way he misses me??

Yeah I keep in touch with few exes. I generally will wish good things for them and congratulate them on achievements in life, but I am careful not to say anything emotional like I miss them.

I will miss certain aspects of them, but not the whole thing in full, so to speak. Regardless, I dont tell them this because of the potential damage it can do like give possible high hopes, etc.

If you are not over this man, then back off a bit to get your feelings in check.

We follow each other on social media and its not me who texted him miss you..he did. I'm happy for him. So I don't get what you mean.

You made a nice comment on his pic, he texted you and said he missed you, then you asked what does it mean, how does he miss me. So I answered and said, as a cancerian male i generally dont keep in touch with exes and when i do i try to make sure there's no hint of emotions or anything to suggest i want to get back together.

So then I tried to directly answer your question if i was in his shoes of "what 'i miss you' means," with:

"I will miss certain aspects of them, but not the whole thing in full, so to speak. Regardless, I dont tell them this because of the potential damage it can do like give possible high hopes, etc."

then i tried to further clarify the two statements together by saying:

"If you are not over this man, then back off a bit to get your feelings in check."

But i mean it as caution for your feelings not suggesting you are doing anything, no harm intended.

Well, since he's the Crab and a man, they tend to feel that they chose the wrong partner. I should know. My ex told me the same thing; and my ex-brother in-law told me he chose my sister over me....ewwwwww!!! I was 11 years old when he married my sister, but verbally said this to me when he divorced my sister (I was about 34 years old). What do you think "I miss you" means to you?! (read above if you're still confused). 🤗 cyber hugs!

Love,

Eva

PS: I'm Piscean, duh! My sister is Aries and my ex-bf (Cancerian) married a Taurus woman.

If you're real friends then ask him.

Maybe she won't let y'all be friends.

I still say back up. Not back up gf but back up sex or gf.

We definitely keep back ups. We are all about security.

I have a friend whose ex left her for another girl,still contacted her,exchanged "i miss you and stuff",did dirty talks,disappeared for days,reappeared,repeat story...this kept on happening for months...now he's married to some other woman(not the girl he left my friend for)

My advice to you-Run away from him!

You know that his text was completely inappropriate. And if you were totally over him and were ok with just being his friend you would understand that and not have replied to him. And you would not be on here asking us what he means by that text.

We ALL know what he means by that text. leave it alone.

But I wanted to be honest and tell him the truth.. I do miss him too. . I'm happy for him and it doesn't hurt ad much as it did when he chose the other girl..I guess I just miss his presence.. You know
