ex drunkenly asked me out and now wont talk about it
CONTEXT : i (18F) and my ex (18M) broke up in january of this year bc he said he lost feelings bcs of long distance, it messed me up pretty badly for a while and i was in a really bad place for a long time - partially my fault tho bc i chose to stick around and stay friends w him, but i went no contact in early july after we went to a concert together and he stayed at my house, and we ended up sleeping together and it didnt mean anything to him so it was the final wakeup call i needed to realise we couldnt just be friends and we couldnt be together either so we had to just stop talking
he texted me on my birthday and said happy birthday and asked if we could be in contact again, i (stupidly) agreed because tbh i was really struggling without him in my life and i felt like i was at a point where id be okay with us just being friends
anyways, a few days ago i was at a party and extremely drunk, i texted him (literally nothing bad just a random text and we text a lot anyway) and he also happened to be drinking and kept making kinda weird flirty comments but i was kind of too drunk to care until he told me he had been thinking about asking me out again, and that he had thoughts of it even when sober - i didnt rly react the best and i didnt give him an answer and then he said we could talk the next day
i texted him the next day and asked him to text me when he had a minute to talk and he said ok, but i didnt hear anything from him so i texted him the next morning asking if he was free and he said that he needed some time bcs something bad had happened to him the night before (which was true) and i said it was fine and that i hoped he was okay and left it at that
i havent heard from him since and i genuinely dont know what to do - i feel like my gut instinct is that he just said this drunkenly and didnt mean it bcs its been nearly 10 months now and he was the one who broke up with me, but its genuinely been sending me down a spiral yet again just as i was finally doing better not knowing if he meant it or not and he just wont talk to me about it and i feel like the only possibilities are that he either didnt mean it and doesnt wanna have that difficult conversation or that he thinks im gonna reject him ????
TLDR; me and my ex broke up 10 months ago bc of long distance, broke no contact a few months ago, a few days ago he asked me out (over text) while both of us were drunk and i didnt give him an answer, and im getting really impatient and lowkey losing it bc its been a few days since now and he wont talk about it with me
