professorgenius Posted February 10, 2007 Posted February 10, 2007 My ex-girlfriend broke up with me on Jan. 14 and since then she calls me frequently. I told her she needs to learn to stand strong emotionally and to try confiding in somebody else when she has problems, but she keeps telling me that nobody else she tries to talk to really cares about what she has to say. I try to tell her that I'm trying to get over her and that she needs to respect my need to be left alone...after all, she's the one who dumped me...but no, she just keeps on calling me saying "She can't imagine what her life would be without me" etc. I know that past breakups she had with other boyfriends left her with suicidal tendencies, so I'm afraid if I stop speaking to her something terrible could happen to her. Should one refrain from No Contact to the point of ignoring all attempts at contact by their ex?
magda Posted February 10, 2007 Posted February 10, 2007 Does she have any friends or family you could discuss it with? Maybe you could dump the responsibility for her mental well-being on someone else and go NC. I think a clean break would speed things up for her. I would probably ignore most of her calls, especially nighttime ones. Let her know that you're not a therapist.
