Pisces man being distant again

What It Means When a Pisces Man Is Distant Again

A Pisces man being distant again often means he’s overwhelmed, unsure what to say, or pulling back after feeling too much too fast. In real situations, many people notice he goes quiet, replies later, or creates space after closeness, especially after a breakup or reunion. That doesn’t always mean he’s done; it can be a temporary retreat unless the distance keeps repeating with no effort to reconnect.

My Pisces ex and I recently made peace with each other after a couple years of silence. We had a really dramatic breakup a few years ago, and recently he came out of the woodwork and told me that he still thinks of me and misses being with me. We met up and talked for a few hours the night he messaged me. Nothing serious happened, we just laid next to each other, talked for a few hours, and messed around a little.

However, he is acting distant again. I don't text him very often, but when I do he usually doesn't reply. I've ran into him around town a few times since we made peace with each other, but neither of us acknowledges each other by waving hello or anything. I would, but I'm trying to hold back and be cool. Can anyone help shed some light on why he would suddenly get distant again right after he reached out to make peace with me and tell me how much he misses me after all these years? I don't think we should jump right back into where we left off, but you'd think he'd be a little friendlier than this.

Pisces can be very nostalgic and come back around for the old "walk down memory lane." All my Pisces exes did that. It still did not change why we broke up. Be friends but don't go back to someone who didn't love you enough to begin with. Feeling nostalgic isn't the same thing as realizing you made a mistake and trying to win the person back. If he's being evasive, he's not trying too hard. Swim away. That's your best bet. Let this slippery fish go.

Even though he is now taking full blame for our breakup, I admit that I made some mistakes, too. As a typical Scorpio woman, I was a little too clingy with him when we were together. We were together during a bad time in both of our lives when we both had too many changes going on at once. But he seems to have matured a little since we were together, and I have grown and evolved some, too. I've gotten much better at not being clingy with men anymore, but I'm sill perplexed by his distant behavior. Why suddenly get in touch with me after all these years to apologize and tell me how much you still miss me and think about me and then go distant again?? He used to go through periods when he would go distant for a few days back when we were together, so I should be used to this behavior by now.

Truth! That is all it is....closure. So do not make yourself available or that closure will turn into you being used as a booty call. Don't lower yourself for that.

Well he did say he misses being with me and that I "have a strong essence about me that can't be forgotten", so who knows. At least he apologized for his side of the childish behavior when we broke up.

But Kitten, keep in mind not all Pisces return to every one for peace or closure. There are some that "I" never want to see or talk to again. Soooo with that being said you may or may not get the satisfaction to have them kick rocks. lulz.

We know who deserves a nice message from us. 😉

lol. im just saying if you return, you better want me back. you damn well better not reappear for closure. the "closure" happened when we split and no, we are not buddies. this pisces reappear act distant again thing is bullshit. no one should fall for it.
