Not Feeling Strong Enough to Cut Contact With an Ex

Postby atomicuniverse » Thu Oct 13, 2011 10:15 pm

I know I really should stop talking to an ex, but I just can't do it. I don't feel strong enough to delete him off my facebook, but every time he signs on, I get this feeling like my heart sinks down into my stomach and I have to message him or I have a break down.

I don't know how to get strong enough to cut contact with him...

Anyone have suggestions? I don't know what to do. I feel like staying in contact with him is doing a lot of damage to me but I feel like cutting contact does a lot of damage to me, too...

Does he know that his presence hurt you? does he help you or care with your condition and problem?

if not, then delete him from your facebook...if you can't do it yourself, ask for assistance from anyone around you

If you're hurt by his presence while he doesn't even care about it, it won't do any good for your improvement and will only make you worse.

and you may need to delete his phone number and address also

hey

I'm kind of goin thru same thing..

1st u need to decided u definetly want no contact for ever

2nd u need to erase any way to contact him (email addy, phone no, msn acct, ect ect...)

also it can be hard if you share friends.. you may need to let these friends go if this is the path you want to take.. hard I know.. but otherwise he will always be "around"

make sure u are sure about #1 before embarinking on #2....

If that fails move along to a rebound guy to get ur mind off him? lol...

thats all I got.. goodluck!
