I'm having an awful time trying to get over my ex boyfriend. I broke up with two months ago, but my feelings for him haven't changed at all. I still love him. He hasn't called me or texted me once since the breakup. Does he not care at all or ever did? I broke things off with him because of his dishonesty and his child's mother is always calling him for every little thing. Am I being selfish? I miss him, and I still love him dearly. Should I move on or try to contact him? How do I cope with this? I have no one to talk to about the situation.

Hold on to this. Remind yourself why you broke up with him. Make notes. Re-read them at your worst moments.

 

People go NC when they are hurt and need to heal. I left my ex and I went NC, he has tried to get in touch, but I ignore him. I still love him and miss him, but he couldn't give me what I wanted, I did it for me, I left because I respect ME. Ignoring someone doesn't mean that you hate them, it just means you are trying to move on. He could be hurt right now and just needs time apart from you to heal. Or he could be out having fun and not thinking about it. Nobody can guess how he feels.

 

Give it another month at the least, and see how you feel then. If the urge is still there, give it another month. And then continue to repeat until you reach indifference. Don't act on impulse, think about it first. 2 months is not long enough to move on.

 

Breaking up is never easy. Healing isn't either. But in the end, what is your ultimate goal? To continue a relationship that makes you unhappy or to find a new one that makes you happy?

I would love to rebuild the relationship with him, but when we were together he'd sometimes he gave 100% and sometimes he gave nothing. I feel as if I've wasted time with him, and like I'm wasting time waiting on him. I'm going to give it time like you said.

-Thanks
