Anywho, he asked if I still had the same phone number and I
said no (I switched numbers a year or so out of college) so he got my new #. I know we probably won't see each other today since he's leaving tomorrow
but it was really nice catching up with him last night. Would it be dumb of me to text him today and say something like "Hey great seeing you this
weekend!", or should I wait and do that sometime early next week once we're both back home?

things went really well. We both graduated two years ago and both happened to be in town for our colleges Homecoming weekend. We sort of dated (not officially
but we were "whatever you want to lablel it" for about 6 months in college). I haven't talked to him since we graduated and things kind of ended
between us without any closure. Anywho, we ended up at the same bar last night and he must've seen me since he came up to my group of friends and we talked
for a good half hour or so. Surprisingly, it wasn't awkward between us and he was friendly

Let him call you! If he really wants to talk to you, he will call you or text you.

You sound really eager to talk to this person. I wouldn't text him at all. What's the point? He'll text you when he's coming back into town and
ready to hook up.

I would just wait. This sounds like a similar thing that happened to me and yeah.

why? you already talked to him for 30 mins + ... didnt you already say something along the lines of "oh its nice to see you!"

Even though you claim it's platonic, the fact that you posted on a board to ask advice about a next step would suggest otherwise. Are you sure you have no
feelings for him? If you don't then I agree with everyone else and just leave it. You guys already exchanged pleasantries and if you contact him now/first
then I guarantee he'll think it means you like him again.

Yeah, I think by sending him the text message you'll give him the wrong idea. Just take that talking with him last night was a sign to him that you enjoyed
seeing him again and leave it at that.
