Is this a silent breakup?If something like that happens, it definitely means that communication -- the essential for any romantic relationship -- probably was never really there.Also, like all questions of the form "Why did Person X do Y?" the only person who can answer that is Person X. You might ask mutual friends to whom Person X is talking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You might ask mutual friends to whom Person X is talking.If there aren't any mutual friends, what's the best course of action?The best option is always asking Person X. A short message to her like, "What happened between us?" might be in order and, if she doesn't reply, drop it. There's not much else you can do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
