Woke up this morning, and like every damn day I check to see if he's contacted me and OMG he sent me a text! I had to double check the number since I've deleted him from my contacts and yes, its him.

 

But here is the awful part, there was no message just a comma :(

 

so of course, I'm thinking what happened to the message? was there even one or did he accidentally just send me nothing??

 

I so want to text back that nothing came through, but I have now been properly schooled by LS and know I shouldn't, but I so want to!!

 

help!:sick:

He sent it on purpose to illicit a response. He can claim he sent it accidentally, but no way does someone do that nowadays. Ignore it.

Don't respond. If he did this just to elicit a response and he doesn't get one, then I guarantee you'll hear from him again. If it was just a mistake, then responding will make things even more awkward for both of you. Just leave it be, as hard as that is! :(

It was either intentional or it was an accident.

 

If it was intentional, he sent it to see if you will react and break contact.

 

If it was an accident, you'll look desperate for responding because of a comma.

 

Ignore.

Oh how painful! :( You need to ignore the text! If he was serious about making contact again, he would have sent a clearly worded text. If the text he sent was intentional, it's immature and not the sign of strong man.

I sure hope you're right on your first statement, I miss him so much!!

 

But I totally agree with your wise observation on your second statement and I guess that's what will stop me from responding. I feel bloody awkward as it is without extra help..:eek:

unless of course, he sent a whole message but somehow it didn't come through..in any case I guess I have to wait & see if he tries again (sigh) :confused:

And if he sent a whole message that was relevant to you getting back together or of significance to you both rekindling, he'll reach out again. If it was a whole message and one that was just a breadcrumb, it then wouldn't matter.

yes, but sadly any contact from him still matters to me, so if it was a breadcrumb message I still would have like to have known what it said.

 

But hey maybe at least I'm now spared from having to analyze the nonsense

 

This is ALL SO HARD!!

Growing ain't easy! :D

I was so heartbroken over my BU, I wouldn't be able to deal with breadcrumbs after the fact. That's why I changed my number IMMEDIATELY after the BU. Yea, don't respond to a comma. Don't respond to him at all. Anyone who thought you weren't worth being in a relationship with, is a complete loser and waste of time.

Send back !

Kidding aside ignore it...that was an intentional text in my eyes

Posted

I REALLY feel for you! It will be extremely hard not to respond. It would be for all of us but I agree with everyone else. I think it was ABSOLUTELY intentional.

I guarantee he will contact again.

Don't respond! I know WAY easier said than done!!!!

Be strong my friend!

thank you hopefulfaerie :love:

alittle hope feels good right now..

 

but if his text was intentional, how odd to send me nothing :confused:

he (was) better than that.

 

I am understanding more & more the value of NC because just this tidbit from him has started to get me all worked up again just as I was starting to deaden a bit uggh!!

 

If it wasn't for all of you awesome & caring LS peeps I would have immediately responded. You have helped me save some of my dignity. Thank you one and all!

And thank you for being such a great source of support for us too!

I think the comma was supposed to look like an "accident" like a butt dial or something. I am sure of this because I have thought of doing the same thing to illicit a response ANY RESPONCE from my ex. Even if it's just a WTF? But I decided against it because I thought that's way too transparent. Which it is!!! Good for you though. Hee hee! :)

yeah, but he's the one that started to pull away, definitely not me (he knows I still care for him alot) so why go through the trouble of reaching out so randomly? I just don't get it :confused:

There's nothing to get. It means nothing. If it meant anything, he'd have followed up on it. There's nothing to think about right now. Just keep NC and keep pushing forward.

You're not supposed to get it because it's silly immature games. And when people play silly immature games, you don't pay attention because it serves you no purpose nor is it of any benefit to you. You need to stop analyzing the meaning of a comma.

Did he mean it?

 

Yes.

 

Have I done it?

 

Yes.

 

Will he prob do it again?

 

Maybe.

 

Who cares.

 

And in going to tell you why

 

Obviously if he had something to say, he woulda said it

 

He didn't.

 

Now its turned into a game " OK she didn't respond, what can I send to make her respond"?

 

Do not respond.

 

If he sends another one...post here first and we will guide you

 

Stay strong

 

You also, just got a ego boost.

I commend you in not responding to a ridiculous comma. And we have established that he intentionally sent that comma to you to induce a reaction from you. I think you have played all scenarios in your head and would agree that you will come across highly desperate by responding to a comma. Additionally, it's difficult to not acknowledge how immature that approach was on his behalf. In any event, do not respond to it and neither should you look forward to him attempting to contact you again with something containing a little more substance. Simply be prepared for it and know that there is no need to reply, simply delete. Once again, be strong we are here for you.

I agree its intentional but really childish. Are you sure you want to be with someone who plays games like that?

Brown Eyez,

Maybe it is silly, putting such deep thought and getting so emotional over a coma. . . BUT. . . I COMPLETELY GET IT!!!

It's good you are laughing about it but I hope your not being too hard on yourself. . You are still "addicted" and you just saw a sliver of light to your "fix" you are still craving it as to be expected until you heal.

You are doing great!!!! You came here didn't you? That is remarkable progress because I bet there was a time you would have responded.

Now here I will give you a real laugh. Ok here goes, God and Everyone forgive me. . . . I would LOVE I MEAN LOOOOVE to get a comma from " jerkface"

Yeah, now how pathetic is that???? Just being honest.

So seriously everyone listen, do you guys hear that?

 

The sound of the planet laughing at me? :)

Ha ha ha! Just kidding! Love you guys!

It goes to show us the amount of power our exes still hold over us. If for some off the wall reason my ex was to contact me, albeit I can say with all confidence that she never will, it will honestly take all the strength in me to reply to her with a, fawk you!!
