My ex and i had a chat the other day.. obviously we are both very physically attracted to each other. I tried to initiate no contact again... but failed less than 24 hours later... we then discussed how it is still comforting to talk to each other and that we have this really strong emotional connection.. and neither of us can figure out how to make that disappear... its been 4 months since our b/u and we have had very limited contact and we both still have that connection.. so my question for you all is does the emotional connection ever go away or will it always be there? We both agree neither of us have ever had this connection with anyone else and it just perplexes us on how to kill the connection. :confused:

 

*he broke up with me because i had some trust problems with him that we could have resolved but he knows deep down in his gut that it is the wrong time in his life for a relationship and he needs to go travel etc in order to be able to have no doubts. (not go sleep around but he does want to travel etc.) basically we are a case of bad timing.

When you two stop communicating - it goes away.

 

Essentially, stop feeding it and it will die.

Agreed. If you quit speaking to each other, there will be nothing but memories. Eventually memories will fade and -- if you are like most people -- be replaced by new memory-worthy moments. Four months -- a mere sixteen weeks -- is a drop in the bucket of post-breakup recovery. Maintain NC for four months. No calling/texting/email/FB/skype. No contact. See how that connection holds then.
