travelbug_23 Posted October 23, 2011 Posted October 23, 2011 Hi everyone, I posted last night (http://www.loveshack.org/forums/t303488/) if you want to read. Basically to sum up, on wednesday my bf/ex wanted a break to sort out some major stresses in his life (of which I'm not involved in), my perspective was breaks are just a way of saying 'i want to break up', possibly overreacted, and ended it. Since then we have emailed a couple of times, he says he misses me, still feels the same, i'm his best friend and he'd be gutted to lose me. He has tried to talk to me a few times online, and sent me a text tonight to ask how my study was going (I have an exam tomorrow). I'm trying to do the right thing and give him space/ NC, as thats what he apparently needs, and what I do as well just to heal. But, just now Ireplied to him once on FB and mentioned how in a few weeks time I will need to get a coat off him (i'm going overseas for 2 weeks and really do need it), if it's easier he can just leave it somewhere and i'll collect it, and he was questioning why I didn't want to see him. I responded saying that he wanted this break up/break, and that right now us having to play friends would be too painful. I'm really struggling to work out what is going on here. It was him that needed space, despite his feelings, and I want to be able to give it (especially if we have a chance at getting back together, I don't want to end up contacting him all the time and pushing him away)... now I feel more confused because he doesn't seem to want it? Is NC still the way to go?!
