Should a woman pursue a guy after a fight/falling out or an unclear breakup ? Especially if the woman knows that the breakup was her fault ?

Many women are very against pursuing, I personally don't get it, I would like to keep the lines of communication open without crowding the guy. I would really appreciate both male and female perspective on this!


I think it's about maturity and humility.

I would at least apologize, I don't expect to be pursued and I wouldn't pursue anyone either.

Someone not being able or wanting to say "I'm sorry" is very telling to me.

How are you sure that it was your fault? What was the fight about??

I kind of asked him multiple times if he needed space which lead to the fight and then he ghosted but we did end up talking again later on

Did he answer you with the space thing? Gurl I do not mess with men who don't communicate 🤷‍♂️

Yes he said he was just busy but. But then brought it up a few weeks later telling me that it made him feel bad

Don't grovel, just put the ball in his court and pretend like it never happened.

It is not serious enough to beat a dead horse over.

I am thinking repeating yourself annoyed him, so now saying how sorry you are is not dropping it.

I learned this shit the hard way with guys, most of the time they just want you to drop it and move on.


Yeah I am trying to do that. He was being open to conversation recently but I tried to contact him again today and no answer. I think I fucked it up anyway so I guess time to move on

He just said it made him feel 'weird' and that he is just 'chilling' from dating for now. I was also going to be moving away and he was staring a new job (I know none of these would have mattered if it was meant to be) so he also mentioned that there were too many variables. I had also asked him if this was his final decision and he said - no, that we could go back to dating again but I'll have to understand that things will change and I can't always freak out (basically ask him if he needs space over and over again). So we didn't have any contact for a week and then he initiated contact and since then I have tried to stay in touch although I did say awkward things because I was clearly starting to walk on egg shells.

But idk since he hasn't responded to my text I guess I finally have a closure and will start to heal and move on 🙂

If you tried already, then the ball is in his court.

Do you really not know why not to chase dudes?

Have you ever had a guy you were not extremely interested in keep checking in, apologizing, messaging every few days, trying to get you to talk to him using several different angles, messaging you on holidays hoping you wont notice he is looking for any excuse to force you to talk to him ?? Eww right? That energy..

If you thought he was cute before you certainly won't after THAT shit right?

Women like me don't chase because there is no upside.

Guys fall in love by your absence, not chasing and there is no convincing you can do that will do you any good, it's all yucky.

This is really brilliant advice and I completely agree with you.

It's funny because I once did this as I wanted my guy so much but for some reason it worked out ok. Goodness knows how but I believe that I had banked just enough good times and a strong connection to 'Just' get away with it lol and for that I'm eternally grateful lol xx but seriously I would never have been that way before or since. True love makes you crazy sometimes x

This is gonna sound stone cold but if a guy sees enough assets in you, he will let certain things go.

Like if he thinks you are hot, perhaps you can 'splode on his ass once or twice a week Lol.

So even though he may have found the chasing as unattractive, you probably had an ass he liked enough for you to pull it off.

Haha I'm kidding but it's true. I think you are dead on the money as to how YOU got away with it, other girls probably wouldn't have.

No your 100% right lol I made myself the best I could be for him as I was in love and basically I put my best self forward in every angle of myself be it personality dress sense and personality and that's what swung it in my favour. Had anyone of those been wrong particularly my personality when together I would not have stood a chance. But I'll tell you my biggest secret was actually just being fun kind loving and never once was I negative x
