Hey Ive read alot of mails here and decided to write on this to see if anyone could give me some advice... I was with my girlfriend for 2 years andthe relationship was great , the last few months thought she became more selfish and went out with her friends more and spent less time with me, Im 27 and shes 22 so I suppose its just an age thing but we always were good when together, we bROKE UP IN October but continued to try and work on things and then 4 weeks ago we both decided to end things for good. I realised then that I wanted this and wanted to work on things, she said it wasnt best and when she came to get her stuff form my place she could not face me as she said it was too hard for her to see me so I had to leave her stuff out while I was away. She defriended me from facebook and blocked me on whatspp and she says she finds it too hard to see me on them.( You see im confused if she doesn't want this then why would she do all that)

She text me for the week after the break up saying she missed me etc and I ignored them up until the second week where I tried to chat to her about us, she said she was happier without me and didn't think she loved me anymore which was hard to hear, I asked to meet her and she said it was too soon for her to see me.... I took that as final closure and said thats fine and I accept what your saying and started a 30 day no contact, it was going very well up until friday where I went for drinks with friends and when I walked into a bar she was there on a date with somebody else, it was hard to see but wasnt too bad, when her date went to the toilets I went over and said a brief hello and told her to enjoy her night, she said i looked well and was good to see me, she was very awkward thought proberly because she was there on a date.. the next day she sent me a message on facebook saying "out of all the nights to see you! You looked well and happy so hope your good", i didnt know whether to reply to this as Im doing a no contact and was a bit hurt by seeing her with someone else, I don't know how to take the text to be honest and don't know if there's still a chance there .... i mean she says she happier without me and doessnt know if she loves me but cant see me on Facebook or anything... part of me thinks she could be going through the grass is always greener syndrome? If anyone could give me some advice or comment id appreciate it thanks

Hey buddy. Sounds like breadcrumbs to me. She didn't say the magic words of "I miss you and want to work this out". There us no need to respond she blocked you remember. But you ultimately decide what you want to do. If you decide to respond keep it short and light. Just assimple "thank you" is good.

 

I got the breadcrumbs last night and just said "Ty". I'm mad because I shouldn't have said anything.

I don't know. But we were NC FOR THE PAST 3weeks. I thought this was the girl I was going to marry. When I seen her number (not her name I deleted her) I got happy/angry/sad. Had to wait several minutes before I looked at the text

Sorry to hear of your break up. She sounds like she was surprised to see you and felt that she had to say something to you. She moved on very quickly. From my experience I would not respond. Not to be nasty but not to get into a conversation. It's hard but just leave her guessing and have no contact. If she wants you she will find you.

You will go through a rollercoaster of emotions so stay strong, things will get better, you already faced everyones fear head on seeing her out with someone else. Bravo, but she saw you out having fun moving on. Let her date a few jerks. Your much better off.

Hey dave

 

I can very well say we are facing the same thing. My ex of 3 years left me last month saying the same thing , "I dont love you anymore and I want to be single" , a week later he was with someone else. No matter what is happening on in their mind/hearts , just remember its over. Dont keep any hope Dave , I know it may sound harsh but she isnt coming back and about the other night when she saw you , I am pretty sure she was surprised to see you out and just threw a breadcrumb. Let her date who the hell she wants. Just remember you are free now.

 

Go NC , thats what I am doing, thats what we all do. If possible, dont reply to her text. I am here if you want to talk.

 

I hope you feel okay soon. This shall pass as well.

She just sent you a breadcrumb, next time ignore it. Remember that you're doing NC only for you and during this time improve yourself, your looks your confidence and always remember that this won't last forever.

Breadcrumbs , Its something your ex does. When your ex (who is also the dumper) contacts you in a vague way, asking how you are doing. Saying everything other than those magical words "I want you back" . This is usually done to boost their ego and see if you are still stuck up on them. You can read more about NC here - > http://www.loveshack.org/forums/breaking-up-reconciliation-coping/coping/337989-no-contact-nc-guide-long-walk-consolidated-discussion

 

And Dave, let go of the hope. To be honest, (I cant believe I am actually saying this ) I was at your place once, though it has been a month only , I have let go of the hope. Let her go have fun, get her heart broken , its none of your business anymore. Go out, have fun try and distract yourself. She would never text you what you want to hear. Too much dumper's pride I am guessing.

 

Keeping holding on!

Yes! You are doing the right thing by not replying. Ignore the message. And I understand what you mean. I am so sorry but trust me keep NC strong and you will feel better soon! You might start thinking straight soon enough.

 

You can block her on facebook infact thats what you should be doing. You dont want to "Accidentally" see something which would trigger much more memories and cause you pain , do you? Block her on facebook and her email if possible. Cut all the ties.

 

by the way what happened with you

 

Me. Well, my ex of 3 years (almost) broke up with me last month since suddenly he didnt "love" me and didnt want a relationship. A week later he is dating the girl I always hated , she liked him and all. Anyway, in the one week I kept contact he was cold and emotionless. So I get where you are coming from. But now it doesnt feel that bad. I am doing so much better :) Thanks for asking

Sorry to hear that I think your ex will have to come back and regret his decision there is no way he cant thats just crazy but he seems a silly guy as thats something i have done in the past and regretted it so much but your doing great wello done...

Im going to go ahead and block just to not have any interaction with her, what gets me is she seems to have moved on but defriended me and blocked me on facebook which confused me but shes a confused girl who had depression for a while near the end so it all contributed to our break up... shes not the same and when I tried to meet up with her a bit after the break up she said it was too soon and she couldnt see me as she wasnt ready, she will only be ready when she moves on i imagine shes selfish that way

Its fine :) even if he does come back , I dont think I would be taking him back. I am so much better without him :laugh:

 

Secondly, If she has already defriended you then you dont have to do anything anymore. Dont add her back or block her , let her be. She doesnt deserve your attention after putting you through so much. Just chin up and smile on! :)

Yep, stay no contact. She's just fishing for responses to keep you on the back burner and give herself an ego boost.
