I am 2.5 months post breakup and 1.5 months NC (my story is in the coping forum here I posted a thread)

 

So lately I have been having a decreased frequency of memories with the ex. This I feel is so much progress. I had a very rough weekend trying to online date and got stood up for which I cried feeling sad that my ex dumped me.

 

The biggest thing that happened today was I accidentally scrolled too far back in my iPhone pics and saw pics of him but instead of feeling sad about him I felt a strange awkwardness about seeing him. Almost uncomfortable. So strange! A good sign right? He looked really handsome in the photos and my mind was "he is going to find a great girlfriend with such good looks" and I almost got sad but then my mind said "I am going to find a great husband someday, I know it"

 

How are you guys doing today? I don't wake up with chest pain BUT I've been waking up with tingling tickling in my chest. Still SOME progress

I would advice that you delete the pictures. They will make moving on harder.

I second this. Delete, delete, delete...and throw things out! (or at least pack them up and bury them deep in the back of your closet)

 

For me, I deleted photos and text messages, deleted his number, moved emails to a separate folder so I wouldn't see them in my inbox, removed myself from shared files online, blocked on social media and threw most things out (I'm sure there are still some things sitting around that I haven't stumbled upon yet). I did this over time, not all at once.

 

It felt good when I did.

Glad to hear you are doing well. I'd say the same, get rid of the pictures asap, I did with my ex within 2 weeks, maybe it helped, maybe it didn't.

 

I'm 5 weeks post break up, 4 weeks since last saw her and 2 weeks without talking.

 

Days verge from ok to horrible sinking feeling in my heart and stomach. I've done everything possible to help get over her but it's just going to take time.

 

Evenings and mornings are the worst, I keep having false hope that something will trigger in her and she will come back and it will be happy ever after. Not healthy.

 

Even though I've deleted her off all social

Media she must still follow me on Instagram, i posted a story and can see she's viewed it, if she has gone through my Instagram feed she will see lots of pictures of me out having fin since the break up. Hope she enjoys that feeling.

 

I'm actually getting angry now thinking back to the day after our break up when she was posting loads of snapchat stories of her out having fun.

 

Anger... a new emotion not felt yet
