The idea is that it's a non-committal response from you.

She's likely fishing for some attention here. If you respond back with some kind of groveling "wanna try it again?"/"how about a quickie?", she'll just affirm herself and say No Thanks and have rejected you.

If you follow the common, but stupid, advice to "who is this?", you both know you remember her and she wins because it shows you are butthurt. Don't do that either. She'll just laugh it off, remind you that she dumped you and it's because you're immature and she'll have won again. How did I know she dumped you? Because of this text. If you'd dumped her, she wouldn't have sent one like this in the first place.

The thought behind "wow" is that it means nothing and it's up to her to come back with something (or nothing). You're forcing her hand to make a stronger statement rather than do it yourself (which you should not do).
All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.

Cringey. But chicks love that stuff so if she's into it I'd say OP has a chance to least have another ride.

I haven't seen the response yet, but my prediction: CRASH AND BURN.

This is only going to end up poorly for the OP.

Showing a disregard for it is the way to go here if you want to smash later. 50/50 chance you'll get a wall of text back and she'll be thinking about what a mistake she made with you and how to get you back all day long.

I'd give her "wow", and then follow up as appropriate. She needs to learn that she can't control you with teddy bear avis.

There would be zero point to the thread if he just responded with "wow" and then she's never heard from again. I'm here for some entertainment dagnabbit.

a simple reply of "Wow" would have cut your ex to the fukkingSOUL.

Drama is way more effective for girls you are currently dating or trying to date, jimmy rustling is more effective once you have history with the chick. Fights = sex.
First off, let's back up. I DID tell him to initially use the wow and see what she said. Then I said that whatever she replies, go off that with your next one. I then later replied and said I would've said this. So calm the fukc down.

I personally wouldn't have used wow because then what? She would've been like "Wow what?", then you would've had to reply to that before you actually get down to the root of WHY she's telling you that. Who the fukc has time for all that?

Lol @ drama.....what are, 10? Speak your mind, tell me your intentions, let's see what we can do about it. I ain't got time for all that mess. But that's just me. Misc feeds off drama, so eh....it's to be expected.

Its a good disarm and would have her desperate for clarification. That's what we wanted... Her to be on the back foot. Now she holds the Fuking cards, and it was so easy. The challenge is gone, it's over.

That ship has sailed.

I will give the OP credit for going BIG. With women/girls, it's go big or go home. While I do think it's going to blow up in his face, at least he's going out bigly and his boldness has a (slim) chance of success. His poetic putting his heart on a platter maneuver is very likely to end up her giggling to herself and shutting him down, which I suspect was her attention-seeking goal all along, but because he went at it so hard, there is always that slim possibility she'll be stupid and emotional and be DTF over it.

IMO, this kind of approach should ONLY be done with an ex you absolutely care zero ****s over. Someone who it doesn't matter to you whether she laughs or think she's got your balls in a vicegrip, because who the F cares, and if she's willing to bump uglies one last time, great, whatever.

In that case, if she does end up getting emotionally validated and shuts you down, since you legitimately and honestly do not care, it doesn't matter and you took a slim chance and it just didn't pay off. Most shots you take with girls, whether it's like this or just meeting randoms at a bar, most of the time it doesn't work out. Guys who tend to do the best are the ones who can shrug that off and make several attempts a night until one pays off.

I sense OP cares about this ex on some level, though. Hence this thread. So, I'll stick by my prediction that this isn't going to end well. It's an interesting case study, though. I'm genuinely curious how it ends, despite having a strong feeling of knowing.
