Some of you might remember me from days gone bye. I remember ChiTownD etc. My story was a bad break up - a girlfriend of 5 years cheated and got pregnant by her paramour. This was back in February 2013.

 

I was lucky in that I'm too damned proud and stiff necked, so I didn't crawl or beg at the time. She made every excuse under the sun - completely unable to take responsibility for her choice and actions (not that she gave a monkey's hoot anyway). I sent her packing with a very curt "GTF out of my life !".

 

Went savagely No Contact (followed the advice of everyone on this here board about cutting her out of my life). She offered a 'friendship' - she got ignored. I saw her in a supermarket (complete with sprog in the trolley) about 6 or 7 months ago and walked past her as if she didn't exist.

 

I moved on, I healed. I've been in some short term relationships since - nothing serious, but some 'abusive' (ie string alongs, gold diggers and attention seekers) who got very short shrift. The information on this board opened my eyes, hardened my resolve and gave me a bit more self-confidence.

 

So, friends, romans and countrymen, when they say No Contact - do it!!!

 

Do it for yourself. OK, it's gonna hurt and it won't heal overnight, but medium to long term it's what you need. You'll get support on this board - even if you just wanna blow steam.

 

More power to your elbow!!

Glad to see you moving on.

 

I know I've only been here a short period of time.. but I'm only coming to vent in the coping/post here instead of your ex threads.. and maybe an update every month until a miracle happens and my love life gets on track.

Stay strong and keep the faith. To quote Friedrich Nietzche - "Happiness lies before you, not behind" ;)
