I was recently emailed by a guy I dated for a few months back in college, almost 16 years ago. I have not talked to him one time after we split. His email just said "HI" ;and that he has thought of me often over the years and decided he wanted to tell me that. Do you think he has a motive for emailing me, like to rekindle a relationship?...or could he just want to say HI? I need a man's perspective!

By the way, he broke it off with me, and he tracked me down through Reunion.com, because he knew what high school I went to.....does this seem like alot of work just to say HI?

I'm not a guy but lord honey he's a man. There is no telling what he is thinking or which head he is thinking with.

I almost did the same thing the other day, but it was of an ex about 2 year ago..
I just had a dream, where we were together again, and for reasons I cannot explain, felt compelled to call her to say hi, we see each other evry now and then but it could be just an innocent thing where he wants to say hi and see how u are, u really think he still thinks you're the same as you were together 16 years ago??
it could be an innocent "hi"
just say hi back, and how did he get ur email if u havent seen/spoken to him for ages?

Something negative has happened in his personal life that has gotten him to reminiscing about another time in his life. He needs to resolve his issues and go forward in his life. If it has been nearly 16 years, he certainly couldn't have had more than a passing thought of you until now. I went through a similar ordeal a few years back when my wife died. I tried to contact people from my past as an escape, but had little luck. I have since moved on. It is up to you as to how you wish to respond to his email.

He could be in a desperate spot where he needs a girlfriend at the time just so he could brag about having you.Or he may really have some deep feelings for you.Who knows I think you should give him another chance to try and make it up with you.You seem like a very nice person.Well hope my words give you good information.GOOD LUCK.

He probably wants to re-kindle. I don't know the particulars of the split in college, but you should keep that in mind when you make your decision.
Maybe you could e-mail him for awhile, to feel out (no pun intended) his intentions.

Absolutely "interested" in you. Looking for maybe to spark a rekindle. Trust me.

I don't think he just wanted to say hi. If that was the case, he wouldn't tell you he had been thinking of you over the years.

I would only contact you if I wanted to start a relationship again.
He is probably still interested in you.
Did you end the relationship in college?

Based on my experience having made a total fool of myself e-mailing my first love five years ago, yes I think his fantasy is that you want to fall in love with him. Could be wrong! ;-)

He might be wanting to see you, but us men aren't as simple as you ladies like to think. Maybe he's just getting something off his chest. Sometimes we men really take our time saying things to our lady friends.
