so he lied about kissing another girl? this guy sounds really immature. It's like he's playing some game with you.

Day 2, after REALLY having fell off the wagon on Sat. night. I'm deciding to let him contact me. My whole reason for coming over that night was to talk things out, but we ended up doing.... other things... instead.

 

Still need some time to figure things out... I'm VERY conflicted about my ex. I honestly don't know WHAT I want right now.

Day 3 of NC...today was a sorta hard one...I wonder what's going on with him, I'm tempted to check out his MySpace page but I'm trying to stay strong. I got a little teary eyed today, hearing some songs, thinking about how things used to be. He used to treat me so well when we were together; I felt like a princess. He made me feel important to him. I felt secure in a way that I'd never felt before really, and I suppose that was part of his charm, he was very smooth, and I believed him for the longest time. It was only until he abruptly decided he was going to start dating someone he swore to me that he would never date, that things took a very bad turn for the worse. In that moment, and since that time, I doubted every thing he ever told me. He said he loved me more than life itself, that no one had ever made him happier, that no one would ever love me more, and that I was the one he'd been waiting for all his life. Valentine's Day 2008 he told me he loved me and still wanted to marry me, even though I had already told him no. Within a month, he was dating the one woman he swore he'd never date if she was the last woman on earth, and now, just barely two months later, they are planning on getting married. So yeah, I'm having major trust issues in anything he told me while we were dating. How can you love someone more than anything in the world, and then a month later be in love with someone else and ready to marry them? He said what he felt for the new gal didn't diminish what he had felt with me. Oh yes it did!!

So I've had very melancholy feelings today...I miss the sweetness of our relationship...we didn't break up because we didn't care about each other, we broke up for reasons beyond our control. I miss talking and laughing with him. I miss leaning on him and depending on him. He was a huge part of my life, and today I feel that void.

NC today? Well, I can't say I want to contact him, but I do miss him.

Day 27 - In the immortal words of Kramer..."I'm out." There's a long thread about it, and I decided to contact my ex today. Yesterday I said it wouldn't be a problem to make it to 30 days...that's before she called in tears. I have no regrets about my decision and, frankly, I think NC was having its desired effect.

 

The convo went very well, and I realized that I'm a heck of a lot more healed than I thought. I'm at peace with myself and with her.

 

I'm going back to NC/LC, and I'm not going to count days. I don't see that it would serve any purpose for me now. Best of luck to all!

So close to breaking it today. Was going to call him or e-mail him to tell him I am not ignoring his e-mails this last week and I miss him. I don't know what I wanted to achieve by doing it. Like he is going to say, "so glad you called, I was wondering if you want to get back together?"

 

Day 27 of NC continues....

Day 5

 

I've got soooo much uni work to do this week. I'm trying really hard not to think about my ex because it tends to make me lose focus.

 

As you all know, I kind of fell off the wagon last week but I didn't say anything wrong and I made sure that my text message wasn't open ended so I wouldn't get caught up in the same pointless chit chat that we used to always do. Which would upset me in the long run.

 

I've kind of accepted that we can't get back together now. I know that I need to be more self confident and happier in myself. I have uni work to do and I have to find a summer job too. That said, I do still have hope that maybe one day things can be different but I am trying to let go and move on because I actually hate feeling the way I do now.

 

My ex girlfriend's auntie suggested that we all meet up at a gig on June 5th. I'd really like to but I need to get myself together first. So it's not 100% certain that I will but that's my "target".

DAY 4 of NC

 

Still dreaming about her

Dreamt we met up, started talking and we kissed - god it was so good!

 

I feel so down it's un-true. I still can't help thinking why we couldn't of just worked through the problem she was having. (depression)

 

I guess if there is a certain type of breakup that leads to reconcillation, then this could be it.

day 14; 31 days to go

 

Well I made it two weeks but I am strongly considering breaking no contact. I am going to give myself a week to think about it. I just want to get it over with and I'm not sure if another 3 weeks would make any sort of difference. I don't know, guess I'll see how I feel in a week

 

 

day 15, 30 more to go

 

well I'm resigned to making it at least 3 weeks before I decide anything.

 

The pros of contacting her are that I've have fixed the issues in my life which I was not dealing with which where causing a lot of stress and frustration in our relationship. I feel like such a jack ass for not dealing with them sooner and they really only took two weeks of focus and effort to get done and it makes me sad to think that it took losing a relationship I valued to get me to do that. Contacting her, would allow me to show and tell her about this progress

 

the cons are it might be too late, or it might not make a difference and I would be hurt.

Ok - WOW, I posted earlier, STILL day 4.

 

She called me as I owe her some money, not breaking NC as she called me for practical reasons.

 

I was sharp, short and assured her I paid the money into her account. Then said I had to go.

 

She sent me an irrelevant message shortly after - nothing to do with the money. She then tried phoning me 3 times. I ignored - w00h00!!!

 

I want to know why she tried phoning but I don't wanna break NC.

 

Should I txt saying "what did you call for?" and THATS IT!!! - no response to whatever she replies with.

Right well ive had a very odd day. I was doing fine until i got some news thro a friend which forced me 2 break NC. My ex (who says she aint sure what she wants) was drugged last night at a club and i felt i had 2 break NC and just check she was ok as i think it would have been very horrible of me if i hadnt. I only checked she was ok after last night, nothing more. I feel this is a gd enough reason to break NC and as i purely check she was ok and didnt say anything else i dont feel i should have 2 restart from day 1 (altho ultimately the idea of this is 2 move on so wot does it matter anyway?). Since i found out though i have been unbelievably angry at what happened 2 her and what may have happened 2 her if her friends werent there 2 help her, i really want 2 find whoever did it and smack them and i am one of the least violent people u will ever meet........

 

Anyway does anyone feel it was unreasonable for me 2 break NC in this exceptional circumstance?

Nope. If it's dire, she'd have left a message. She probably just wanted to talk. Don't give her the time of day for a while.

Well, I'm thinking of falling off the NC wagon completely (go to LC, letting him do most of the calling) just because it isn't really making sense to me anymore. I have to figure out what's going on between my ex and I, but I'll take my time and maybe let him initiate the "talk" I think we need to have.

 

I had left him two VM messages on Saturday night regarding a strange situation with my previous ex talking to him about us and our relationship... my previous ex is attempting to win me back, apparently, even though I'm ignoring him, and I guess had talked to my current ex on Fri. in a way that seemed to be trying to gather info about me. I guess he didn't hear the second VM until last night, and he called me around 6:30 last night (phone was on vibrate so I didn't hear it and he left a message) thinking I had just left the VM. I was on my way to ballet and then I was going out with girlfriends for Cinco de Mayo, I breifly explained that second VM, and yeah, it was no longer relevant since we'd already discussed it on Sat.. I think I may have come accross as annoyed or terse, but it was only because I was pressed for time.

 

I'm wondering if I should call him back in a few days if I don't hear from him before then. He seemed to want to be in touch, even though it was a mix-up. I miss him, and he seems to be wanting to work something out. It's too soon, but it's very hard to control myself when I want him back so much. I have the feeling that he's going to want to get together this week sometime.

well, scratch that NC for day 4. My ex just texted me to inform me that he and his girlfriend of 11 weeks (the one he got the week after Valentine's Day, which is also the week after the last time he told me he loved me and wanted to marry me) are getting married. I'm numb. will post more on another thread, but suffice it to say "ouch". I did not respond by the way, so I did not break my NC, and I deleted his text also.

Ok, I called her at work, and told her that I needed her to get her

stuff out this weekend not because I was trying to be an a-hole, but because it was slowing my progress. I told her one month was long enough to find a storage unit. She said you told me it was OK to keep my stuff there

until I found a place. I said I changed my mind because it was not

letting me heal and get over it. I was in pain waiting for her to call

me. She said she couldn't move it out this weekend. Her girlfriend

from Vegas is coming out this weekend. She cried. She said how she

read the letter , and how alot of it really hit home with her. Other

things she said she had a problem with. Like using me. That's when she

started crying. Long story, I said I didn't want to get into it right

now at work, but if she wanted to meet and talk about it, I'd leave that

up to her. She started balling again. LOL, I was strong. She

crumbled. She said I should've told her earlier. She said she really

thought I was the one for her, and she knew she broke up with me in her

heart a few weeks before she moved out, but wanted to make it work. She

eventually gave up. More crying. She said she was going to respond to

the letter, but needed time to not get so defensive, and really think it

through. Anyways, she said she wants to meet and talk about it, and

asked me when. I told her when she is ready for it, give me a call.

She cried again. I said, don't cry, there are no hard feelings toward

you. I just need to move on, and 'cut the cord' so to speak. More crying. Said goodbye, and take care. What now??? I'm confused, but played it cool.
