Well done, Fineberg. Sounds like you and I have the same ebook What you're doing is pretty much my whole philosephy on NC vs. LC. As long as you're mentally ready!
Sounds like you've got your head in the right place when she calls and are staying cool. I wish you the best of luck. I wish I could reach out to my ex right now, but fear and pride are getting in the way. Each time we make contact, he is always very receptive. I sometimes I wonder if he thinks I hate him due to some harsh words I said to him when we broke up. Since then, when we communicate, he seems to be going out of his way to show me he has changed, and does those little things I said he never did.
Ugh! So confusing!!!
