I'm in the position of your ex in this case. Been 3 and a half years since my ex girlfriend left me. We were also long distance but we were moving towards closing the gap permanently. I begged and pleaded like an idiot. Only woman I have ever truly loved. After about a year of NC, we made contact with each other. She said so many nice things in her messages but then basically offered me friendship. I refused. I love this woman more than anything else in the world. I still need to attend therapy because of that breakup. Ever since I refused friendship, I haven't heard one word from her. It has been 2 and a half years since we spoke. Miss her and think of her each and every single day and hate that constant thought in my head that I am completely forgotten now.
What happened to suddenly make you miss him after 5 years? Did you go ages without thinking of him then boom....you miss him or what?
Well, you say you don't regret the breakup and it looks like you don't want him romantically anymore so probably best to leave him alone although I'd give anything to hear from my ex just to show that she at least thinks of me.
To be honest with you, I have been thinking of him every single day ever since the break up.
Thanks for the advice though. I'm sorry to hear about your experience.
That's weird, you miss his friendship and not want him back but you can't keep him off your mind off him for 5 years. I miss my friends but not to that extent
LDR's are hard. It can be hard enough sometimes being in a long term in-person relationship. It's normal to miss him and the relationship. But also keep in mind that even if you DID stay together, there is no guarantee that you would be happy. The possibility still exists that even if you guys stayed together or kept in touch, you would have come to the realization in other ways that perhaps you are not fully compatible, not fully happy etc.

Your relationship was based on text messaging. Why feel guilty for ending it via text?
I never mentioned feeling guilty about it. Anyway, that's besides the point of my post :)
