I texted my ex to apologise but she responded by blocking my number – I miss her

DEAR DEIDRE: I TEXTED my ex to apologise after I pocket-called her.

She responded by deleting me from her social media, and blocked my number.

I am 23 and in a relationship. My girlfriend is 22, the same age as my ex.

I began dating my now ex when we met at college. We later drifted apart but kept in touch.

I’d not heard from her for a while and sent her a message asking how she was, and I told her that I missed her.

I know she’s in a relationship, so wasn’t surprised when I didn’t receive a reply straight away.

Eventually she sent a message back saying everything was fine and that she hoped I was OK.

We have always had a connection, it’s like we are soulmates.

But now I am worried I’ve got her into trouble or that she wants nothing to do with me.

It is preying on my mind. I don’t know what to do.

DEIDRE SAYS: The pocket-call was an accident but for her own reasons she’s choosing to stop contact with you and you may never know why.

You’ve always had a connection but almost no relationship ends without mixed feelings.

If she had been right for you, you both would still be together.

Put your energies and focus into your relationship with your girlfriend.
