I've posted on here about my breakup before. A little short summary:

 

Dated on and off for two years, then another two years together fully. Went on a break last November but continued to see each other and be intimate for another two months. First week in Feb I find out she has started to date another man. After two weeks of pursuing, I went into LC. Only reason it was LC is bc we are in the same social circle and I have had to see her.

 

Since she has been seeing this other guy, I have driven myself crazy reading into her mixed signals: "I still love you" "maybe one day" "it's hard to be around you bc I still have feelings too". Blah blah blah.

 

I went full NC in March and April. Had to go to a music festival with her and our friend group on Saturday. It went well. I avoided her when possible. She of course would try to talk to me about trivial things (ugh so annoying).

 

Today is my birthday and of course I got the "happy birthday!! Hope you have a great day." Not going to respond. It is really annoying that she would think it's appropriate to try and contact me.

 

I'm proud of myself for not responding, and more importantly, continuing to move on knowing we will never be together. It still hurts some days bc she was such a big part of my life. But I know there is someone out there who will love me unconditionally.

 

 

:) stay strong friends

You should be proud of yourself!

 

It's very hard when your EX is part of your group of friends. I know some people would stop seeing their friends and wouldn't go to a music festival knowing their EX will be there. So you take it well, with proportion, and with a lot of dignity and self respect.

It's been difficult because she lives with my roommate from college. Once their lease runs out in July I think things will get a lot easier. I'm too busy for all this drama!
