Is asking for clarity fair after a breakup?

Author

Was this message fair to send? Would you answer? If not, why not?

Morning… now that I have some clarity about my daughter and my life, do you think you could tell me where I stand with you? ❤️

Is this still space while we figure things out and potentially rebuild, or are we seeing other people and becoming strangers in each other’s lives again?

I’m not asking to pressure you. I just think I’m ready for a little clarity about where we actually are.

i would answer, even if the answer was hard. when someone is brave enough to ask that clearly and without attacking me, i’d rather be honest than leave them sitting in that awful space of guessing what we are.

if they don’t answer this, what do you think that silence would tell you about where they’re choosing to stand?

She replied. Asked to chat. No concrete answer. Im hoping for a rebuild.

i’ve sent messages like this when i was desperate for some kind of ground under my feet, and honestly, the waiting for an answer hurt almost as much as the breakup. i don’t think you were asking for too much, you were asking where you stood.

I feel like that's okay, but how long has it been and what's the story behind the breakup?

She took a day and a half to reply. Asked to chat. I said great… name the place and time and im there. Thumbed it. Now we wait… again.
