I wouldn't attach any further expectations to the communication aspect of things or you may find yourself disappointed after awhile. I'd look at it as, ok this is a staring point, at least we're in touch, let's try to build somewhat of a friendship and see where it goes from there.
I used to get super excited when my current POI would text me after a week of nothing. Each time he'd text, I'd think ok this is it. Now communication will become more consistent and he's gonna try to reconcile soon. Well, no. Lol. It's moved a lot slower than I thought but at this point, I have zero expectations. While communication has increased in frequency, as it went from once a week to now almost every day. The once a week thing lasted for like 2 months. I don't get excited at all anymore. I have zero expectations and hopes and just sort of don't care what happens. I'm not saying for you to not care, I'm just saying try not to have any expectations attached to the communications.
I'll also say this. I know that we tend to play these communication games with each other in an attempt to get some sort of specific outcome. I'd advise against it. The same kind of energy you put into something, negative or positive, is what you will get out of it. So, if you're short and to the point, I wouldn't have expectations of some super open friendly conversation. That may cause even more hesitation. I mean, do you really want to make it harder? Or would you rather sort of just open the door, be warm and friendly so that he feels more comfortable to possibly open up in the future? I know that when my ex is all cold and short and to the point, it makes me not even want to try to talk to him at all. It's a really off putting energy. I'd advise you don't listen to the communication game playing that most of these psychics suggest. I also wouldn't be groveling or all over the guy either. I'd make it a neutral ground of kind and friendly "comfortable" communication and energy there.
Just my 2.5 cents.
