xyz, don't know how you feel about doing this but here's what I did yesterday that paid immediate dividends.
I texted the W just because once during the day yesterday. I said, "Hey gorgeous. Just thinking about you. That's it"
She called about 5 minutes later to just chat. She was at the hospital and is usually super busy and can never call.
I didn't even mention the text until later at night. I said, did you like that text. She gave me the cutest damn smile and said I did - she even said it in that little cute voice that she did when we were really in the love mode.
It's slowly coming back
If you don't feel comfortable saying that you are thinking about her, why not say, "Hey beautiful. How's your day going?"
That TELLS her that you are thinking about her without any mention/pressure of the relationship. It's a convo starter EVEN if the convo is her returning, "UGG..Busy..." and that's it.
She hears - beautiful - what girl doesn't like that - and caring words - he's interested in how I'm doing.
Those two little things are huge...
