Joanne19852010 Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 I'm going to see my ex tomorrow and Tuesday because we have to finalize some things...tomorrow i'm going to talk to him and ask for him to be honest then Tuesday i'm going to start no contact and sort myself out...i feel lonely and complain that i'm alone but i have friends asking me to go out like last night and i say no...once Tuesday comes i can start doing what i have planned in my head...i'm not going to tell my ex about no contact...i'm just going to delete his number from my phone and take down all pictures and reminders of our relationship...i feel very determined at the moment that i'm going to do this but i know after a few days its going to be very hard...i just need to try and keep myself busy and find a job...i've noticed that when i have a busy day i don't txt him but when i'm alone i do...my sister has said i need to start going out with her on a saturday night and i want to...its just the idea of meeting someone and after nine years with my ex its going to take a long time to get to that level with someone else and that seems quite daunting at the moment...so even though i'm lonely i'm going to focus on myself..i'm still kidding myself at the moment that my ex will come back...i will start no contact Wednesday and see how i go.

RitaTrue Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Day 74 For a few days, I pondered on whether to call my ex or not, but then I had a dream about 2-3 nights ago. I dreamed I broke NC, called him, and we met face to face. But the horrible thing happened: During the conversation, my feelings resurfaced. But, even then, he himself was completely removed and cold, even though he knew I still cared for him. The dream hinted that he felt this way because he was just FINALLY starting to do what he should've started doing a long time ago--start moving on himself. But since he was so cold to me, I felt weak and regretful. Then, the dream ended. I felt it was a warning. To stay in NC a little while longer. Link to comment
somethngwrng Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 I have been in LC with her.. only conversing about getting my stuff back, which is supposed to happen tomorrow. Last few times I've talked to her she has started flirting with me a bit which I have flat out ignored. She claimed she was very hurt I blocked her from Facebook etc... but I explained already that I just don't want to be led on again and if I am not in contact with her then it's impossible for her to do that. It makes me feel a lot stronger ignoring any kind of friendly/flirty advance and telling her that we shouldn't see each other, period. Almost as if I have gained some control of the break up and it is now completely mutual. Link to comment

She flipped out at me today and called me "annoying" after I sent her a polite reminder message asking if she would give it back today (she asked me to send the reminder). Said I have been horrible to her even though she tried to "connect" with me. Not happening today, no date set. Will not ask again for 2 weeks or have any form of contact since I run the risk of talking to her while she is PMSing. Walking on eggshells big time, lol. Link to comment

He always seemed to home in on anniversaries christmas boxing day or birthdays to decide to have a row.. dont know why that is... but will post again soon... Love to all of u who are suffering too x x Link to comment
tujna Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Day 3 Definitely today I felt better than yesterday. I really need to let him go this time. How can this be so hard? I was feeling so close to finding our love again but, again, it wasn't meant to be. But maybe it is much better this way - now we both will have our own time to make decisions about the future and move forward with them. If I have to move on, then I really have to do it now.

Aleina2011 Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 DAY 3 Still going strong. Link to comment
lonelyheart2 Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Day three it's his birthday tomorrow I will not say happy birthday!!!! I'm hopefully meeting up with a friend who I haven't seen for ages which will hopefully distract me from him....on the upside I do think I am a bit better than I was..........still a long road to recovery but something definitely feels a bit better...I feel a bit that even if he did want to reconcile with me now I feel stronger to not just immediately reply to him and tell him I love him just like that....I think I feel like my self-worth is coming back in small doses Link to comment
loulou37 Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 My god!! day 8!! never thought i'd do it...it's not got any easier, still the urge burns right through to my soul, but i've done it and i will continue, even if it kills me!...poor sod really lost out on something good ;-) loulou x Link to comment
tujna Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 Day 4 Already feeling so much better, thank you God! It is nice to distance yourself, even a few days make a huge difference - I am back on track to being myself again. Let us hope it is going to be mostly uphill from now on - I really need to move ahead with my life! Everything related to him pulls me back into the pain - it is simply not worth it. If it can never be the way it used to be, why struggle so much to achieve it. Link to comment

Cityslick Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 I accept your challenge! From the issues and the response to my thread : "She left me, then a week later she got a new boyfriend, possible to reconnect?" I feel it is time to finally let go. My ex got me off to a decent head start, she blocked me from her FB page and defriended MY friends so I couldn't get sneaky and take a peek. I last told her that I would still call her next week but that would be uneccessary and nothing would change or be resolved. I've already deleted her number and all of her family/friends' numbers too. *Day 1* Showed extreme weakness by my past reactions to her however its like nowadays I'm always finding something new to be upset about. Try to focus on other things but it's hard to take my mind off the situation. Trying to regain control. A little upset that it took a month after the break-up for me to see all the clingyness and pushing away I've done. Even when I implement the NC rule for some reason I still feel the urge to contact her and be like "I'm not calling you anymore!" just so she can talk to me, but I've made that mistake already so forget about that happening again. Don't know what to think siometimes. Probably gonna write a lot these next 30 days... Link to comment
resmarted Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Back on Day 3 after she contacted me asking how I was doing.. It was 24 days NC before that. Link to comment
tujna Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 It was a hard day. It is hard not to think about it. I miss him. I had a nice night but now I again started obsessing. I read Questioning NC thread and it always helps me. Not because I doubt NC, but because it gives such good advice on moving on and letting go of expectations. I really want to do it this time. I want to be at one month mark, I really hope things will have settled by then. Link to comment
Aru Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Day 1. I feel heartbroken. I feel guilty. I feel awful. I just don't know why he's dating a new girl and telling me he misses me and that he is going to regret it. I don't know why he says he only compares us and can't be happy now. I've been crying all night and haven't slept. I realized I haven't slept well since August. I deserve better. I deserve to be happy, and I want to achieve it. I know it will be tough, but I'll really try it. Link to comment
Bronxtigeraso Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 BU:Sept 2nd Last time I heard a word from her was Sept 2nd. She is giving me the silent treatment. Last time I ever tried reaching out to her was Sept 16th. I have been NC ever since that date. Day 42 I started to stop missing you little by little by around day 30. But recently I'm starting to miss you more then ever. I'm at work thinking of you. At my house thinking of you. Now with halloween coming up I can only imagine the fun youll be having and the loneliness ill be having. I always wonder til this day. Do you even miss me? Do you think of me? Is there someone else? I love you dearly. Why cant you just come back into my arms? My birthday is almost here on Nov 10th and even that ill spend alone Thinking of breaking NC very soon... Link to comment
