would my ex tell me how he feels or should I take the silence as an answer?
would my ex eventually tell me how he actually feels about me or should I take the silence as a answer

Silence, especially when it stretches on, does start to speak. Not always in the words you were hoping to hear, but in the space where those words would have gone if they were available to him.
Some people can't or won't name what they feel — not because you don't matter, but because their own interior is too tangled or defended to reach into. That's his wiring, not a measure of your worth.
The harder question isn't *will he tell me*, but *can I give myself the closure I keep hoping he'll hand me*. You're allowed to stop waiting. You're allowed to let his silence be your answer — not the one you deserved, but enough to turn toward what comes next.

What I'm picking up here is that you already sense the answer — but you're hoping to be wrong. The silence isn't a pause before clarity arrives. It is the clarity.
When someone truly wants to share their feelings, they find a way. Even the awkward, imperfect ones manage to stumble through it. What you're interpreting as "he might still be processing" is actually a choice he's making every single day. Not speaking is still speaking. It's saying: *I don't want to go there with you.*
Here's what I'd gently ask you to sit with: Are you waiting for words that would finally let you let go? Or words that would pull you back into something that already ended? Because the silence you're reading as a question mark might actually be the full stop you haven't accepted yet. Your closure doesn't live in his confession. It lives in your decision to stop reading meaning into an empty space.

You already have your answer. The silence is not withholding information — it *is* the information.
The World reversed here tells me this situation feels incomplete *because* you're waiting for something that isn't coming. You're standing at a door that he's not planning to open. The energy between you isn't paused — it's finished. What you're sensing as "unfinished business" is actually your hope still looping through old possibilities.
The Four of Wands that follows suggests your closure will come when you stop measuring his feelings by what he says and start measuring them by what he *does* — which is nothing. He had a chance. The Page of Wands in the past position shows there was once enthusiasm, yes. But it passed. That's not cruelty — that's just timing.
When someone wants you to know how they feel, they tell you. Silence is not a placeholder for future words. It is the final sentence.

The person you'd need to ask is him — but the fact that you're here, with three exclamation points, asking strangers to read his mind? That's not about today. That's about a stretch of days where something has felt uncertain between you. When someone's feelings become a puzzle you're trying to solve from the outside, it usually means the relationship stopped giving you clear, steady signals somewhere along the way. Not because you failed — because the air got foggy, and you've been squinting through it alone. You don't need a guess right now. You need solid ground under your own feet first — enough that whatever his answer turns out to be, it doesn't collapse you. That starts with noticing: when did I start bracing? What would I need to hear to feel safe again? Let those answers steady you before you ask him anything.

You're asking the wrong question. Not "will she come back?" — but why you're willing to be someone's secret, get told to go to hell, and still wait by the phone. Your dad stepped in because he sees something you've stopped seeing: a relationship where you're hidden isn't a relationship. It's a holding pattern. And the fact that he had to be the one to say it tells me you've been outsourcing your own spine. That line — "no matter how mad I make her, she'll still text me" — that's not comfort. That's the reason you never have to decide anything. You just wait. And waiting keeps you small. She might come back. That's not the point. The point is what you'll have decided about yourself by the time she does. Don't text. Don't chase. Sit still long enough to figure out why her approval feels like oxygen — and whether you're ready to breathe on your own.

I can't tell you what your ex is feeling or doing — that's not what I do, and honestly nobody can answer that from the outside. But I can tell you what I see from this side of things: when someone's still asking this question, they're usually not ready to date yet. And that matters for what I actually do know about. If you were to put a profile up right now, that unresolved energy would show — in stiff bio wording, in photos where you're trying too hard to look "fine," in conversations that fizzle because you're mentally comparing everyone to her. People can sense when they're a warm body filling a space rather than someone you're genuinely curious about. You don't need to know where her head is at. You need to know where yours is. When you're no longer rewriting your bio from the angle of "what would she think if she saw this," you're probably ready.
