chados Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 That was a contact to get her to stop contacting me lol the worst thing is that she said, why arent you answering?. i mean to me that sounds desperate in some way. it wasnt the worst message you could give her. but still tell her that this is for the best and you dont feel its a good idea talking right now. and whatever she says after that. dont answer Link to post Share on other sites
chados Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 (edited) I thought that was a way of starting NC....I wasn't going to message her when she sent her most recent text and was gonna continue there. I'm affraid to give her a last text b/c I still want her in my life or atleast for her to come back in the future....if situations allow it to work agian. you dont understand this. you havent finished it. she has.. you want to show that youre not going to wait for her. reversed psychology.. begging never works. and after you blocking her just looks desperate. because you gave her a message just before you did.

But I know I shouldnt say that! no you should not say that. something like this. hi ive got some thinking, and i understand why we broke up. i realize this was actually the best for us both. i dont think its a good idea having contact right now. but maybe we could be friends some day. this is you making distance. and youre not lying. because this is the best for the two of you. when she broke up with you. she said i dont want you anymore, and i dont need you, because thats what a breakup means. she's dating another guy, shes mushing it into your face. shes telling you everything about him, and how great he is. she's simply telling you that he's better then you. even though im not sure she's actually dating, it could be a test from her side. but this is how you should do. and if she beg you to talk to her, dont do it. if she says she wants you back. then login to loveshack and ask for some advice Link to post Share on other sites

Trying to think and get advice before speaking this time lol. So message will read: Hey, I've been thinking...I told you I understand why we broke up but I think its the best thing for the both of us right now. I don't think its a good idea contacting eachother for now, and maybe one day we can be friends. Hows that? Its a slight variation of what you said Will it be possible that this will send her into panic mode when she's trying to keep me in her life? Link to post Share on other sites

Will it be possible that this will send her into panic mode when she's trying to keep me in her life? theres no guarantee. but it will increase your chances a lot. you dont even know if shes testing you. well now youre testing her.

Good point which is why I asked for. So I'll just say "hi ive got some thinking, and i understand why we broke up. i realize this was actually the best for us both. i dont think its a good idea having contact right now. but maybe we could be friends some day" Now, I'm 80% possitive she is with her friends. I think it's a good idea to hold off on saying it and wait until I know she's home to herself so she can think of it all night rather than having her friends say "oh you don't need him" etc. And knowing her I feel like there will be a 78% chance she will go into panic mode since she the one thats mostly trying to reach out to me despite the fact there's another guy around.

That's who she's usually with on tuesdays. I know when she's home becuase she usually signs on AIM just to talk to me or see my presence. And I'll say just that. I'm not expecting her to come crawling back any time soon but maybe one day she will and that's when I'll be back on here. I'm sure she will texts me throughout the days to feed me breadcrumbs. And I'm sure she will text me on the holidays. I do plan on sending her family a christmas card becuase they are nice people. But it will be adressed as "to the xxx family" nothing more nothing less.

I understand what your saying. And I appreciate your help. I know I'm a little stubborn...ok maybe a lot stubborn. But to be honost. With the nursing program, I don't have time to start up a whole new relationship. Its too much trouble and extra stress. I'll spend time with other girls but to start a new relationship its not a great idea. I would rather work on what I had or just let time slip by for now. But thanks again for your help. I'll be posting up a response from her shortly. She is home now so I'll let it marrinate before I message her. Link to post Share on other sites

Yea your right about that lol. She never signed on again and part of me is hoping that she will but as of now I dont think she is and thats going to nag me a little. She's making it sound like I'm never going to talk to her again lol. But I guess thats good for me to make her go into panic mode. I just hoping she doesn't rush over to the other guy ya know. I know she has a long busy day with school and work tomorrow so I should be fine with her not spending time with another person the entire day. It is easier for me not to text her now compared to when I first started this thread. I guess I am healing and looks like she got a taste of reality that she cuased. Link to post Share on other sites
