Free relationships & wellbeing tip: When one message is okay (step 5 of 9 from "After a Breakup: Honest Talk, Space, or Moving On").
One message is okay only if: no block, no explicit no-contact, enough time passed that you are not reacting to yesterday's fight, you can accept 'no' or silence, and you are not asking them to fix your feelings.

You'll need
- No block active
- Weeks not hours since break
