Day 5 of NC. Now her 15 year old Son is texting me wanting to know why I'm not speaking to his Mother. Last time I spoke to him was last weekend. We were driving back from a concert. His mother, my ex, was in the car behind us. I told him that I really cared for his Mom. Now he wants to know why I'm not talking to her. He's obviously

 

Last night, I got a text from her best friend, the one who set us up, asking the same thing. I'm really coming off as a jerk here with this whole NC thing. Not sure I can pull it off without making things worse. What do I say? What do I do?

 

PLEASE HELP.

I was going to say tell them you're hurt and wanted to heal, but then I saw your other thread where you're just using NC just to get her back.

 

So yeah, things tend to backfire/get tough when you play games with people's emotions. :(

You can text the kid and tell him that the reason you're not responding to his mother is that you two are no longer together and it would be a wisest thing for you to do is just not contact her until your feelings for her have faded.

 

However, also tell the kid that if he ever needed anything or needed to talk about anything, that you will always make yourself available to him.
