To keep this short,

 

My ex and I have been split up for just under 3 months, he ended it with me (3year relationship). The longest we have gone NC during the break-up time is a month. I have caved in and contacted him a couple of times in the early stages when I was really angry. However, these last couple of weeks he has been the one contacting me. Nothing major, just general chit-chat (basically just breadcrumbs). I've been replying to him (stupid i know) playing it cool at first but then I end up getting really upset (not surprising).

On Valentines Day, he rang me and the conversation basically ended with him saying he was going to start dating again (once he moves into his new apartment) because he cannot be single forever and he thinks it will get be a good step towards moving on.

 

He ended it with me so I know that I am a lot further behind in the healing process than he is. I can't even comprehend dating! The pain and upset I am going through makes me never want a relationship again.

Absolutely gutted that he has said this and even though we have been broken up 3months, I feel right back to square one. Everything feels so raw and I'm SO worried that this is going to get 10 times worse if I was to find out he is dating or in a new relationship!

Its going to be the last straw for me, honestly :(:(

 

Any advice guys? In desperate need right now.

 

Oh btw, initiated NC with my ex properly yesterday. Told him not to contact me as I wanted to get on with my own life, hardest thing I have ever had to do . I think he would have been completely happy to stay friends and chatting regularly.

Your ex sounds like the biggest stain for the fact that he dumps you and then keeps reaching out to you and then tells you he's going to start dating again. Who does this? Only a complete moron, douchebag, or someone who lacks any and all feeling for someone else.

 

Good for instilling complete NC, block him everywhere. He sounds like a real winner.

Very true. I feel like he is taking advantage when it suits him because he knows I am in love with him. Yesterday was the first time I had told him not to contact me, even though it felt awful deep down I know its the right decision :(

You deserve way better than this jack*** Remember, he doesn't control or break NC. YOu do. Block and delete him everywhere. If he gets through your barriers don't pick up and don't respond. You will be over him much faster.

He's just using your attention as a means of building himself back up because he realizes that he ****ed himself over.
