Me and my bf broke up a week ago . Me not liking his flirting . I want him to realize what I mean to him. How long will it take to feel the absence. He is dating..

If he's already dating, then chances are he won't ever miss you and want to come back. Not the answer you wanted I'm sure, but I wouldn't wait around for him.

First of all, you can't force anyone to make you miss you. They either will or they won't. You didn't provide much detail about that R/S to get very detailed replies.

 

 

Understand that if he was flirting all the time to where you dumped him, he may of been bored w/you and that R/S already. You ending it could of done him a favor and freed him up to go tear it up on the single stage.

 

 

There's a lot of folks out there that have the mindset of "you dump me, you'll lose me forever" and vanish on the dumper. He may be one of them.

Who knows? Even if he misses you, doesn't mean he will get in touch or want to get back with you.

 

I used to have a secret affair with Coka-cola. That relationship ended few years ago and although I miss drinking the fizzy drinks, I haven't touched one in years.

 

Does it make you feel good inside to know he misses you or you trying to brew some false hope?

Well I heard that scientific fact states that a person misses and longs for someone between 4 to 6 weeks. I am hoping he misses me and comes back a stronger force for the benefit of our relationship, if there is one to be had

:laugh:

 

My friend, in 1980, my GF of almost 5 years broke up with me for what sounds like the exact same reason. She was fully justified in doing that.

 

I have yet to feel like I miss her.

 

I guess what I'm saying is that whatever you heard, it doesn't always happen. You'd do yourself a favor by looking forward instead of looking backwards.

I don't think there's a set formula for when and if someone will miss you. There are people on here who are dead certain they will NEVER EVER hear from their ex again and the ex pops up eventually. Then there are those so sure they will hear and yet don't hear a single peep, ever. Then there are those who feel they will hear from their ex and they do and some feel they won't and they don't. As for the missing factor, I agree with the coke analogy above. There's then that dig that they could miss you but not enough to want to be with you. You could just be a fond memory and that's all.

 

There are so many branches to the missing theory and there is most certainly no set time frame. I remember hearing that the 3 month and 6 month mark are the key time frames for when the ex will miss you. I remember getting a private call around those two time frames, which is kind of ironic, but I didn't put much stock into it. I haven't heard a single peep and it's been 8 months and I was one who thought for sure it wasn't the end. I think if your ex misses you enough to want to reconcile or whatever, you'll find out, but you definitely should not think about it and need to focus on moving on and getting better.

 

I think the best reconciliation stories are those where the people moved on and then just crossed paths or whatever. It's hard when you're hung up on the person though and the feelings really get you good.

 

Sorry if this is way too in depth. I think I've analyzed the whole missing theory a little too much.
