Lynx331 Posted December 12, 2008 Posted December 12, 2008 Thanks to the advice from you guys on the forum I am going with your advice of no contact. My question now is my will power.... I know what I have to do but will I be able to do it. There is a program for the iPhone that will allow me to block text messages from her.. I am really considering doing it and blockng her number so I don't get text messages from her. Here is why.. If I get one and I read it... I will think about it then come up with somethng real good to say and want to text back... If I get one and I delete it without reading it... I sit and wonder what it said... So I think blocking her number would be a win win for me... Any opnions? The only thing that bothers me... Is I would probably wonder if she was trying to text me.. But I guess if she ends up REALLY REALLY wanting me back... She will get in Touch with me somehow and not stop at just a text message right? Thanks for all the help everyone!
DSM-IV Tom Posted December 12, 2008 Posted December 12, 2008 Rofl man is your name Thomas? Because you sound exactly like me dude word for word. Hilarious. The only difference is I don't have a garbage Iphone. LOL JK!!! Ok. Let's see.. Man, sounds like you have anxiety issues. Just like me. Too worried about the what's and what if's. We should hit up a psychologist together and get some anxiety medication lol

That program costs money. I just simply changed my number and blocked her on everything I know she can contact me with. My story is different, I'm trying to get rid of her. I don't know about you, but false hopes will drive you mad. It's not only a test of will power, it's self preservation. Anytime I broke NC, I hurted. Found out that I got cheated on and there was another man. If I stuck to NC, I would have never known.
CaliGuy Posted December 12, 2008 Posted December 12, 2008 Some help with NC. Change your ex's number in your phone from her name to "DO NOT ANSWER" Block her on IM. Send her emails to the SPAM box. Box up all mememtos of her and put it where you can't find it. Don't talk to any mutual friends about her. If they talk about her, remind them that she is not the reason you are friends and hang out. Don't hang out in places you know your ex will be. Dive into new hobbies. Spoil yourself (ie: put all your focus on you, not her). Work out. A lot. It helps, trust me.
Author Lynx331 Posted December 12, 2008 Author Posted December 12, 2008 Yes I am very what ify, it really sucks... I just really care for her... And I think if I block her number it will prevent her from saying just the right thing for me to talk to her, or her catching me at a moment of weakness... This is very very hard.. :-/. My mind can really be tricky sometimes... And what if I block her number... Then she texts me let's work it out, and if you don't answer I will take that as a no... And I miss that text.. And she never speaks to me again?
Author Lynx331 Posted December 12, 2008 Author Posted December 12, 2008 well I have decided I need to get that program... I cannot have her text me.. I will collapse.. I'm barely standing right now... I want to text her so bad I can taste it... It is absolutely killing me right now especially because I am at work and this is where I met her.... I just want to go home and lay in my bed... And just cry... I miss her so much...
alwayssme Posted December 12, 2008 Posted December 12, 2008 I dont think you need to take it that far... Just a personal opinion...because you will end up wondering what if she texted me...just let it be...
