Gt.ooh Posted October 11, 2010 Posted October 11, 2010 Breaking up is like a band aid on your arm. If you rip it off fast it hurts more, but for a much shorter period of time. If you rip it slow it drags out the pain for a much longer period of time. When your break-up is on good terms so to speak it's like the band-aid when u peel slowly, you know eventually it's not going to hurt anymore...but it takes a long time to get there. When you rip it fast, it's virtually painless..
Sheppy99 Posted October 11, 2010 Posted October 11, 2010 Very true, it sounds so simple but its amazing the amount of people that don't follow the NC (ripping it off fast) I feel NC is the ripping the band aid off fast method, however scary, it is the best and quickest way to move on. Just like the band aid, it will hurt a lot more in the initial first week to 3 weeks but once you get past that, the pain starts to subside immensely and you can begin to move on for the better. This is the first real relationship thats ended for me where I employed all the things I've learned on this forum and in books and tips online and boy what a difference. My past relationships used to be epically painful for an incredible period of time. I am now on week 6 or 7 of NC (honestly lost count) and when I think about the relationship I only see bad stuff, no longer good things. Once that shift occurs and it will, you are golden.
