An ex of mine (amicable breakup because of her moving away from my college) just texted me saying: "Hey! I have a quick question... How do you tell someone that you miss talking with them without crowding in on or potentially ruining their healing time? You don't have to answer that if you don't want to. Just thought it'd be better to ask than not say anything at all."

A backstory: I broke up with her after she moved away from my college because long-distance (10 hours away) just wasn't going to work and she wanted to be friends (which I couldn't do at the moment, nor did she want to). I told her I needed time to "heal" or whatever wording I used. --- How does one hold frame after receiving this message? - Should one respond? ... If one does respond, how does one do so while holding frame?

EDIT: She is talking about me in this text I assume.

Relationship duration: 4/5 months. Broke up on new years. No hard feelings.

I hope I clarified the situation well enough. Ask me if you need more info.
