I txtd him

[Nappeal]

I knew I shouldn't have, but I had just gotten out of church and was in a good mood so I figured even if he doesn't respond, that's so ok.

 

All I sent was 'i was thinkin bout i, i hope ur ok. have a good day'

 

I closed off the text for convo because I figured it would make it easier on me in the case he didn't respond. But, he did w just 'yea, i think i am jk i am lol'. So I sent back 'good to know ur not in a gutter'...'no, i might be lol'. I think I sent like 'you dont need anymore color', and that's where the convo ended. I finally sent back 'glad to kno ur ok, if i c u @ (a city gathering) ill give u some sunscreen. have a good afternoon', and I haven't heard anything back. Really, I didn't expect to have a meaningful convo, but still it stings.

 

I know I shouldn't have said anything...I think deep down I wanted to remind him of my existence, and yes possibly spark something. It just kind sets me back.

Happens all the time and doesn't sound bad to me, especially since he answered. The worst ones are when they don't answer, now that is a real set back!! Not sure how long you've been NC, but the "experts" say, just go back to it and continue from here!

I agree it was good that he responded back.

 

When we break up with someone, especially if it was a meaningful relationship, we always want to be comforted that the other person is thinking about us.

 

For your own sake, try hard to not text him. Resist the urge. I know it sucks, but I remember bugging my ex (I broke it off with him) and wanting to remind him I was still around, but I was merely torturing the guy.

 

Go back to NC...you'll thank yourself later.

Def NC from now on, but we did end up talking back and forth all night. I went to this humungo food & music festival last night w family (which was SO much fun!), and we texted back and forth until I had to finally end it to go to bed. It was nice being that @ least I know he's not totally ignoring me, but the convo seemed pretty light and distant. Still it was nice, and yes, I will be going back to LC...no more personal chit-chat.
