Maliel Posted November 19, 2015 Posted November 19, 2015 I hate that I keep wondering if my ex will wish me a happy birthday. We were together for two years basically and had a pretty emotional break up about three months ago, and we haven't talked since. I texted him a month ago pretty much saying I'd still like to be friends and he never replied. He lives close by so we see each other around on the road sometimes. It's kinda ****ty. How do I stop thinking about the possibility he'll say something? I know a small part of me will be sad when I realize that the day is over and he didn't say anything. I hate that I can't just not care about something that shouldn't matter at this point.
FeelingFireworks Posted November 19, 2015 Posted November 19, 2015 Happy birthday Ex or not, hinging your happiness on one person Will pull you down. The split is done. If it was emotional, you both should use the space to heal. He's prob using no contact for that reason. Because honestly, being friends at this point is unrealistic. It hinders recovery and will fuel false hopes. Birthdays can be lonely if you've nothing planned and/or not with people. But remember, It's the day you were born & only happens annually - celebrate that! Make it about YOU & create new, happy memories. Why not meet with a friend or family member? Have a fancy lunch or dinner, go to salon, watch a comedy? by focussing on yourself going forward, your expectations of him getting in touch will go further to back of your mind. hope you do something nice. Be nice to see a follow up post telling us how you spent your special day!
