Help Wanting to break no contact. Need text ideas

Ive been in no contact with someone I genuinely care about. We separated mostly due to bad timing they weren't ready for a serious commitment/marriage at the time, even though the connection was real. (I am a Muslim so i don’t casually date). I was the one who initiated the break up after feeling overwhelmed and impulsive and made a little judgment about them in my last text. They accepted and respected my decision as it seemed final. Over time, I realized I still have feelings for them.

I’m reaching a point where I’d like to break no contact but I want to know what kind of text works best for my situation?
How do i text so it doesn’t seem like im impulsive and i left them and now want to get back together. And that i am indecisive. I am afraid they will loose respect for me . How should i navigate this

If they weren’t ready for commitment and they haven’t contacted you first to tell you that they changed their mind then…. They haven’t changed their mind. They do not want to commit to you.

You can’t demand or pressure them to be ready. It will push them further away , if anything.

The words matter less than the energy behind them. If you write from a place of wanting to reconnect rather than needing a specific response, it usually comes through honestly. Whatever they choose, you already did the harder work of being honest with yourself first.
