After three days of no contact, I broke down and texted "I miss you" last night. He wrote back saying he misses me too.

I couldn't help it. At least with this one, nothing bad had happened causing me to enforce a strict no contact rule.

The other thing is -- he never was able to give me his Christmas present and I would prefer to have it. It would be a nice memento of our amazing times together. I want to have this in my possession. I am not materialistic, this is for sentimental reasons.

So I am wondering if I should ask him to get together one more time so he can give me his present. It may sting to see him... but perhaps an in person conversation would be helpful. I just don't know what to do about this.

Edited to say: I decided to text him to ask to get together.

I know I am going to want to make out with him one more time. It will be so hard not to..... he is too cute and too irresistible. Maybe there's no harm in one more goodbye kiss? As long as I can do it without wanting him more that would be OK I think. In knowing he cheats, I think I can do that without wanting more.

He agreed to get together Monday eve.
