Do I ?

My boyfriend of 16 months broke up with me last April because we were long distance and he wasn't happy with the way it was going. And we stopped talking completely altogether last October-ish. He got in another relationship in December but broke up with her in Feb.

Since I've been home and not working and being occupied with things I've thought about my ex a lot. There were things I did that I'm not proud of, basically the reason we stopped talking was because I was still nudging him to give me time and talk to me (we met when I was studying abroad and then I came back home and time difference etc).

I've realised I was wrong, towards the end there were things I did that I'm not proud of. And I miss him, I know there's no immediate future so I'm not even thinking about a relationship - but I miss him he was my best friend and I was his.

Do I message him? To apologise and ask how he's doing? All my friends say I shouldn't text him (they don't know about me wanting to apologise)

But seriously do I send a text or just ignore it?
