I split up with my girlfriend about seven months ago, after a 2 year relationship.
We split up on good terms, but did not keep in touch, as it was quite painful at the time.
I have been single since, but have had a few flings, and ONSs.
When I was out in my car yesterday, she was driving in the opposite direction and flashed her lights and waved at me.
Do I make contact again, or stay well away?

After sitting down, logging onto PH, and posting, I think she'll be quite far away now.

You can't really be friends until that feeling of wanting to ram one up her goes away. If that's gone, you're OK.

Well, yes. There's always that option.

Ensure that you are considerably more successful financially, have a new younger and better looking girlfriend, and have "experienced" at least 2 or 3 of her closest friends since you broke up.

No problems making contact and being friends then.

Dunno. I'll ask her.

I'll have to defrost her and put her back together first, mind.

Not necessarily, still friends with most of my exes and still get 'the urge' with some of them.

Can't think of any of mine that I would actually want to revisit - although a vengeance shag wouldn't go amiss in one or two cases.

There should be an option of posting a thread where you can block women from posting on it. Quote above shows why...

Always make sure it's in that order.

Yeah, 'smash doors in back' doesn't seem so appealing!

I'd say once you have both fully moved on and see each other as only 'good friends', bearing in mind there was a reason why you split in the first place, then yes. I think 6 months is usually enough to clear the air, although for me (Last relationship was 3.5years) it was less ...

However if you become friends it might be interesting to see how your new OH reacts?
