With any situation that goes on in your life, weather it is a death, break up, or a fight between someone else, you really need closure.
Without closure there is always unanswered questions in eating you alive and you are dying to get answers.
No one really ever wants to be the person to ask questions, and it sometimes make us look more vulnerable. We all begin to think you need answers to know where you stand in a situation, but at the same time, sometimes you're too scared to know the truth.
Questions are pouring in and all you can think is that you NEED answers. Asking someone flat out where you stand is just not a great idea. It could scare some people away. We are all so scared to look vulnerable and be the one to care most about a situation.
Some actions of the person you are seeking answers from could also be a form of closure. If they keep trying to contact you, it could actually trick you into thinking differently. You may begin to think they still want you in their life in the way you were before. If they try to make an effort to see you and hang out with you, that tends to be more of mixed signals towards you.
STAY AWAY!
Sitting there thinking of all of the things that this person could be thinking about in the situation you are in is way too much stress to put on yourself. Personally, I know that stubborn people are the ones to struggle with this most. We all suck and have way too much pride to just suck it up and ask for all of the answers you've been wanting.
I'm not going to sit here and write "omg, get up and go ask your questions!" HAHA, I could never do that. Wait for it. If you're brave enough hint to it, the answers eventually come out.
Honestly, without any closure you have a really hard time letting go of the past. Seek that closure that you need to get over the fight, person, or death and you will feel so much better. Whether its a goodbye or a slap in the face with what you need to get closure, you won't be miserable just wondering for what feels like ever.
