I'm not counting the days anymore. It has been long enough that I feel better about things.

11 hours lol, only started NC last night, we broke up on Monday. Today would have been our year anniversary. Finding it difficult, but sticking it out. And because I KNOW I would drunkely text him, I'm giving a friend my phone for the night any time we go out.

49.

I can't remember if this is the weekend she has her daughter or not. I actually forgot something. Must be a good sign.

Hopefully I'll forget more each day.

Closure comes from inside of you. I understand if you want some information from him to help you but if it is stressful for you remember that the only real resolution you will ever have will come once you go through the grieving and healing. I am not a person that thinks NC is for every situation. I just think you should be careful with your heart right now.

Funny, I'm not really counting days this time. I have no desire to contact him. Why would I? He's with the office hooch now. We're done.

HOWEVER. I still do run through in my head what he's likely doing now - "oh yeah, this weekend he's visiting his daughter" - "oh yeah, early June he's going on that climbing trip". Etc. Shouldn't matter, really, but for some reason it comforts me to think of the times he can't possibly be spending with the hooch.

tomorrow is 21 days of NC. She did text me today. one of those "wondering how you are doin" texts. *sigh

I was nearly in tears talking to one of my friends about what to do. It's funny how just a few words can mess with your emotions.

I've decided I'm not going to respond. Even though I dumped and left her, I still think about her. And even though she has a live in boyfriend, she pulls this shyt.

I'm counting my NC days, but I think after tomorrow I'll just remember the start date...(may 9th). *sigh

So does that break NC when they text you, but you don't answer?

Yeah, it does, right?

It's late.

no, it doesn't break NC for you.... It breaks it for them though.

Once you reply or make contact, you need to start over. I think that's how it goes.

good luck YYY

I just have to say.

Texting is about the weakest form of communication in the midst or aftermath of a breakup.

It is akin to a myspace comment or for that matter two branches falling from a tree to make a Gestalt type symbol connotating meaning.

If they are at all sincere then they would at the very least call you (leave a message) or give you the respect of a complete paragraph in letter form.

Don't fall for easy bait.
