Mkg5097 Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 Almost 2 months ago my boyfriend and I broke up. We were together for over 6 months. He was a recovering addict and has almost 2 years of clean time. I supported his recovery, accepted that it would be a part of him forever and supported him 110%. I truly believe that it takes a special / loving person to love a recovering addict and accept the recovery process. When he broke up with me he said he needed space to focus on his recovery and to get his life together even more before he could put his all in a relationship. He offered to stay friends but I know that I can't be his friend right now. I need time to grow and heal as well. Last Monday he snap chatted me and it was the first time he's ever attempted to make any contact with me since the break up. I don't know what to think now. I've gone 28 days without calling, texting, and facebooking him. I would greatly appreciate any advice!

Please try not to over analyse this and don't make contact. If you still want him back he needs to do more than a snap chat to let you know that.

If you still want him back he needs to do more than a snap chat to let you know that. It was a picture of a landscaping project that he was working on at work. Stupid, I know but it was the typical snapchat for him. I would get stuff like that all the time when we were together. It was about mid afternoon when he sent it to me.

I don't want to put a downer on it but trying to keep it real, maybe it was a mistake, just seems a bit random. Ignore it you're doing great:)
CaliBabe Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 I agree, could have been a mistake. Did not ask how you were doing, mention the relationship or that he made a mistake with breaking up with you. Do not respond, wasn't worthy of one. 1
