How long after breaking up did you intiate no contact?

[DazB]

For me it was about two weeks. I saw her for a coffee two weeks after we split and (besides 2 texts regarding the house we own together) we have not been in contact since.

 

Was wandering how long it took you?

11 days. All of my belongings arrived and he says he's doing a lot better. Good enough for me.

 

I don't like the phrase "initiate" though because I didn't tell him I was no longer going to reach out, I'm just doing it.

1 month, 1 week and 6 days.

He started his NC 10 days prior to me. Which means for 10 days straight I still tried to get him back, until I realized it was pointless. I didn't want to put myself down anymore, I needed to gain my self respect back and realized he did not give a toss about me so why should I give a damn about him?

About two months... She did me the favor of saying she was still thinking about getting back together so I could sleep with her until she decided she had found the rebound she wanted... Thoughtful.

True colors are my favorite.

2 months. I groveled for the first 30 days doing everything wrong. Then I found this site and started learning. Over the next 30 days I got my pants back on and my self respect. Was able to talk with her and hang out, then let her know I was checking out after her bday. We celebrated her birthday by going dancin n drinkin. I told her this would be that last time we spoke. I was not interested in friendship. We had a blast and I have not talk to her since. On day 8 of NC

Amazing! My hero

 

It took me about a week and half to realize that no contact was best for me.

[Saudade]

I havent spoken to him since the breakup-3 weeks. I asked him for NC right away ...Last week I sent him a short email acknowledging his Bday and he reply to thank me..that is it...no question asked.

[HeartGoesOn]

It took me an entire 5 minutes.

Hee. Shhh...actually the reason for that is that I had already read ENA during my last breakup and knew about NC. It's like in an emergency, if you have seen the video enough times, when the plane crashes you remember that your seat cushion also functions as a flotation device.
