edwards99 Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 9 days no contact..I know it seems like such a small accomplishment compared to some of you..well most..but its so hard for me..I still think about her constantly..dream about her which i hate..and miss her dearly..
mgce Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 Congratulations, edwards! The first 9 days are by far, far, far the worst. It really does only get better (albeit slowly). I found it useful to think in terms of weeks instead of days. It shocked me how much better week #3 was than week #1, and week #4 beyond that, and so on. That helped me get a real sense of progress. I'm now at the 4 month mark. That would have been unimaginable 3.5 months ago. I still think about her every day and I still have more down periods than I care to admit, but I can absolutely look back towards 15 weeks ago and marvel at how far I've come since then. Good luck for your next 9 days.
River Rain Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 Nine days is a good accomplishment. At the worst of my breakup, one day was just excruciating. I couldn't imagine nine. The next nine will pass, and soon you'll have more good days than bad days. I think about him less and less as I keep busy in my life and meet new people. Happiness can be found again, I promise.
Author edwards99 Posted October 3, 2012 Author Posted October 3, 2012 thanks to u both...River Rain..i read some of ur posts..n see alot of similarietes
Dessembrae Posted October 4, 2012 Posted October 4, 2012 Good job! It's hard at first but as the days go on you'll start feeling proud at how long you've gone NC and your view on it will switch to where the idea of breaking NC will make you laugh because you've accomplished so much. Stay strong!
outsider11 Posted October 7, 2012 Posted October 7, 2012 I'm 6 days now, last night I woke up at 4 am my hand reached the cell phone desperately to call but i took control of myself. this bs should pass and it will, i'm sure of it.
spaniard Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 Wow man, congrats! I'm proud of you For me it has been 2,5 months NC, and it's quite easy to maintain. It will get better, trust me.
River Rain Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 Well, today it's now been 9 days NC for me too! And I feel a lot better. I hope you're still doing okay.
Author edwards99 Posted October 9, 2012 Author Posted October 9, 2012 im trying...i read quotes after quotes thinking what can i post thinking she will read it on my fb..and feel something..but still nothing..no texts..no emails..no calls..etc etc..god its hard..
River Rain Posted October 9, 2012 Posted October 9, 2012 Well, think about it...if you're thinking of posting stuff on your fb in hopes she'll react...that's dangerously close to contacting her. You're still trying to engage her right, or at least thinking about it? Stay away from facebook!!! Absolute NC! Yes, it's hard, but trust me, it's the best way.
