Hi Noemi,
Yes, as long as you stay away and avoid initiating contact, there is a reasonable chance that he will pop up with a random snap or text.
As men, we often don’t realize what we have until we lose it.
That is why men so often come back after a breakup and beg their exes to take them back.
It is understandable that you would think that he is really gone and that your relationship and friendship is gone as well.
That is the fear within you that is speaking and you shouldn’t give it attention.
It will only end up making you do something that you will regret, such as checking his social media obsessively.
This will only lead to one result.
You will message him and this would be a mistake.
Being that the both of you have been casually dating for many months, it is unlikely that he will forget you that easily.
The both of you have a history.
A relationship that has history is often a lot harder to let go of than if the both of you had only hooked up and hung out once or twice.
All of this notwithstanding, it is still possible that he is really gone.
There are no guarantees.
However, you stand a better chance of him coming back if you disappear and live your life as though you have moved on.
