Hi Chris,
I am, like all women here, feeling really confused after my break-up.
I found out that the guy I’ve been with for 5 years, was cheating on me with a few other women since at least a year or so. When I asked him why he stuck around with me instead of just leaving me, he said he couldn’t really point one reason, except for that he ‘was just so used to having me around’. He also told me he considered me to be his best friend, that he told me (how painfully ironic).
When I found out (through a friend) about his cheating, which is just a little over 5 weeks now, I didn’t care to see him personally at first because he doesn’t live nearby. After a while I felt he owed me an apology to my face, and I had so many questions, so we agreed to meet after he returned from his holiday to talk things over one last time, face-to-face. Two weeks ago when he was on holiday I sent him some pretty desperate texts, I confess in shame. I asked whether he missed me, and he replied “no, but I’m not sure, I think it’s all still ‘too fresh’.” Few days later I texted him, asking when he would return, and that’s the last time we spoke. I visited your website and decided to stop texting him, but as you can guess, I’m incredibly annoyed that he hasn’t initiated any contact about our agreement to meet up since then. I am just so curious if this guy is still thinking about me, or is going to miss me at some point.
After the break-up, I got to know a bit about 2 of the girls he cheated me with. One asked him the week after to come back to her, but he rejected that. The other keeps posting pictures of “you should’ve treated me better” and “you don’t know what you’re missing” profile pics and statuses on Whatsapp. I guess he’s finally truly single.
What’s your opinion on what might go on in his mind? Will the silence treatment work on a cheating guy as well?

Why do you want him back if he cheated on you with multiple women?

When I submitted my story I realized I forgot to add one important line indeed, I don’t want him back.
At first I did, out of despair or something, but now I’m positive I don’t want him back. I just want to understand how his mind works or will work in this situation. And for me, it’s just for the sake of some type of ‘revenge’, I want him to want me back.

Hahah you want revenge… Are you sure you want that? Sometimes revenge is not a good thing to get. Just having success is the gretatest revenge.
Shri
November 23, 2013 at 9:20 pm
hahaha very sure! He wasted 5 years of my life, I’m okay with wasting 1 or 2 months more…
But do you have any experience on what might be going on his mind in this situation? Is there a big or small chance he will reach out to me sooner or later..?

Hi, I really am confused.. I was dating this guy for almost three years and I love him to death.. He’s my neighbor our families are good friends and I’ve known him for 15 years. I’m 20 now. We had a good relationship but near the end we lost connection more and he seemed so distant and acted like he just didn’t care. I thought I might have been too clingy maybe.. But anyways. We both agreed to take a break but it’s been bad. We’ve been broken up four months but I was texting him everyday to see how he’s doing brand he would also text me.. he is more quiet. Less talkative but He told me hell always love me and care but he has too much going on to be in a relationship at the moment and maybe in the future… But He always would ask to hangout still and text me or compliment me even after he told me that.. But if I was busy he would get mad and stop texting.. So finally I told him we shouldn’t hangout because we aren’t together and I don’t want to just be the girl he gets his sexual pleasure from because I love him too much. He’s been partying way more than usual and I think he just wants to have fun right now so I decided to not talk to him. I haven’t texted him at all for a little less than a month which is different because I always talk to him. The first night I didn’t text him he texted me and said “cutie” I just texted back a smiley and we haven’t talked since. I just don’t know if I should move on or what. I’m lost, I can’t see how he hasn’t tried to get me back yet because I was always good and loyal to him and showed I cared all the time. I just don’t know what I did or why he stopped acting like he cares, please help

My ex broke up with me 9months ago, after being together for 6 months. I’m 48 and he’s 44. I’m divorcee and his single after a 12yr relationship.(They lived together for 12yrs) Stating that he has to focus on his daughter and new job. We were very happy and intimate, 3days before he broke up with me. I miss him so much. I dated 2 guys since then, but it didn’t work out. He was my soulmate, my person…. What do I need to do?

November 20, 2013 at 6:54 am
I was dating this guy for 11 months, and told me I was his first love. He told me forever & always, and that we’ll get through anything together. All of a sudden he started changing drastically, and next thing you know we’re taking a break that leads to a legit breakup. Even after the breakup, he still talks to me, he walked me to class, and he told me that no matter what happens he’ll always love and care about me. No girl will ever compare to me. He told me that for right now he doesn’t see us getting back together because he doesn’t want to be in a relationship. He told me to move on, but I don’t want to. I don’t see myself dating someone else but him. Do you think it’s hopeless for me to think that I still have a chance? What should I do?
admin
November 20, 2013 at 5:53 pm
No its not hopeless. What advice has you tried so far?
Stella
November 21, 2013 at 8:43 am
I’ve tried the no contact but everybody is telling me to move on but I just feel like we’re going to get back together. You can’t just stop caring about someone you were so in love with for 11 months & not feel sad or miss them at all. He told me he planned our future: marriage, kids, and living together. He told me if he can he’ll marry me right now. How can he not care about me at all anymore? He told me he never stopped loving or caring about me. Just stopped caring about our relationship. he still has our pictures on Instagram, but he followed his ex because he told his bestfriend he finally reached a point that he doesn’t see her like that anymore & can be her friend. Do you think he’s hiding his feelings on the whole breakup? or is he just masking it from always going out with his friends & publicizing how much fun he’s having?

Do you think that there’s a chance? I’ve tried the no contact for two weeks, but my friends told me that he didn’t even notice how long has it been since we’ve talked & he doesn’t seem bothered. Also, he’s been updating his social media alot lately more than he usually does, tweeting where he is at, and what he’s doing. He never usually does that. Does it mean anything if all our pictures are still on his instagram & he hasn’t deleted them? What should I do?
admin
November 21, 2013 at 7:18 pm
Does he log in to instagram a lot?
Stella
November 22, 2013 at 8:34 am
yes he does, he has deleted the pictures he would put up on our month anniversaries but he has kept the most important ones: our first disney trip together, the disney trip that he asked me to be his girlfriend, my graduation, my birthday, and a collage of when he said he missed me. our first ever picture together, a picture of me at a dinner together. its been a week that ive been doing the no contact rule, and also i’ve been tweeting about how much fun im having, i’m going to Disneyland with my friends next week, and it’s definitely a place where it has a really special meaning to both of us, do you think if he sees a picture of me wearing the sweater his mom got me for disneyland would hit an emotional spot for him?
admin

Absolutely… HECK I want to see that picture b/c I love disneyland hahah.
Stella
November 23, 2013 at 12:12 am
Hahaha, my friend had this idea that shes gonna take a picture of me with a random guy & post it up. She thinks that it can make him jealous, and wonder who the guy was and just think about the idea that i’m at disneyland w/ another guy that’s not him. How do you think he will react to this?
admin

Maybe a little jealous. I am fine with it as long as your not making out with the guy hahaha.

Stella
November 26, 2013 at 1:45 am
mmmm, he used to love when I’d just randomly show up at his work with food for him for his break and stuff. He’d use to love going back to the places that usually has a meaning, or something we always go to when we don’t have anything else to do. He loved doing movie nights on the weekends after he gets off work, and we just fall asleep before he goes home.

My boyfriend( now ex)Are one week away from our one year anniversary. He just broke up with me last week. We are currently expecting a baby together as well. He says we fight too much and I don’t make him happy.
He has called me and texted me lots since.. with the just checking in texts or calls making sure I’m ok.
I can’t tell if there is a future for us.. or if he is just stringing me along. I am so confused.. Whats harder is I have to find a new place to leave.. because he is not man enough to leave the apartment I have too.
What should I do.. HOw should I be. What should I want? Because right now all I can see in my sight is him, and even though he has said and done some shity things.. he is the only guy I want.

I did the no contact thing. We went a few days with out talking. I was thinking there was no hope and started to get my life in order without him.
We got together to talk about how we would go our ways. When we got to talking I opened up about my plans and how I was going to talk to someone (which I have done) and then he said he was as well.
So we will see. I have been back at out apt and we have been spending time together. We both seemed to have scared the life out of one another with moving on. To then realize it was only each other we wanted. And showing each other we needed to fix ourselves and telling each other that.. showed that we both want this and want to stop putting one another through hell. I hope and think this is a great step ahead.

My boyfriend of over a year said he wanted to take a break recently. We have always had a wonderful loving relationship, but he went to college and has started partying a ton, I’m a few years older and almost past that crazy party stage in my life. When he first went to school in August he said he wanted to break up because he just wanted to experience everything, and didn’t want to cheat on me so I let him go although I was very upset. About two days later he was already texting me asking if we could still talk some because he missed me and I let him, so we started talking a lot more and ended up getting back together a few weeks later. Things were great since then, we got even more serious and had a lot of fun, but the last week or two we have been fighting a lot, I have a lot of trust issues from previous relationships and he has a lot of outside stresses so everything turned into a battle between us two. He finally said he wanted to take a break because it was unhealthy how much we were fighting, he said he still is very in love with me and still very serious about the relationship but he needs a break. He also said that since he is younger he is afraid he is missing out on being single, he hasn’t made up his mind either way about it but that is also part of the problem. I don’t think he wants to lose me and I think he knows if he breaks it off completely that he will, but he also wants to go crazy for a bit (even though I already gave him that chance earlier this year). I told him we shouldn’t talk and Stopped answering him the night it happened and its been three days and he hasn’t contacted me yet. I’m a little nervous that he isn’t missing me or thinking about me at all. I don’t plan to contact him at all but what are some things I can do to get him back? Is he really not missing me or thinking about me or is he just being a stubborn boy? Any feedback would be helpful, thanks!

I was seeing a guy for about a month and a half. We talked for hours every night (5-7hours) and we had an amazing connection. He lives about an hour away, which was a little difficult, but we still had some great dates and although we didn’t sleep together, we were entering into the physical aspect of the relationship.
I started to fall super hard and told him (on FB) how safe and comfortable I feel with him. I gushed a bit about how much I liked him, and I tried to lock down another date. He texted me that he’d try to answer my message “later”. So, the next day I called (but sounded sad, because I felt so nervous). Then… No contact for a week. I sent an email to clarify my message and apologize for the voicemail. I did not initiate further contact.
Then, after a week, he blocked me on FB. I havent checked to see if he blocked my number. Should I try to salvage this (like call after a month), or did I scare him off and he won’t be “missing me”?

My boyfriend and I were together for 3.5 years…. About 1.5 years in, while I was away for the weekend, he cheated. He got a hotel and met a “friend” to talk…. He ended up lying at first and then admitting what he did. Since that moment I never fully trusted him and wanted to have a 100% honest relationship, no secrets.
We never sought couseling, but have been amazing together for the past 2 years… So he changed his passwords abruptly, which caused concern. He told me he needed his privacy and didn’t like feeling like I checked up on him. He abruptly moved out, said he were over. And 2 says later rekindled a relationship he had with a woman he met before we ever dated, he is already profession his love for her, and she him…. It’s been 2 weeks since the breakup.
I love him, and miss my best friend. Is it even worth it to try and get him back? This relationship he jumped into is bound to fail… He loves with his mom (at 30 years old) she lives wither her parents, with 2 children (one special needs).
Any advice/opinions appreciated….

Hi, I just wanted some pro tips on this? There was this guy whom i sort of liked back in jan-feb, and he went to the USA for four months, and he had a girlfriend at the time. Well at his goobye party, we played around alot, but i did it in an innocent way because i joke around with everyone, then while he was in the USA, i told him i used to like him, and he said “i used to like you too” and i was in shock. So we keep talking and he told me that he still had feeling for me, and i told him i did too, but what about his girlfriend? He told me he had broken up with her two weeks ago, but there were alot of rumors that he had broken up with her all of a sudden and really harshly one night, so i wondered if that had happened the night we talked. fast forwarding, we talked everyday, we started talking all mushy and cheesy, even though i actually hate talking like that, when i talked to him it just came out naturally. When he came back, and his welcome back party he asked me out, and i made him wait 30 mins to answer him, and told him “you’re gonna get tired of me and leave me” to which he replied “i’m not gonna easily leave you because its costing me alot to get you” so i told him yes. It was all great but he always got mad at my jokes and at everything i did, he was jelous and ever since we started dating he was really gloomy at school, but when we were both alone at his house or on a date wealways had a great time. Because i couldnt do or say anything afraid that he would get mad, i started being grumpy, and he was always grumpy too, so we fought alot, but we would usually make up that same day. I started noticing that we only fought over message. One day that we had fought really really bad, he broke up with me, then he said he wanted some time, and i told him no,if i make you sufer then i want you to be happy (because he said i made him suffer too much and was too direct and to the point with him and too flirty with other guys )so he asked me to be friends. The next night a bunch of classmates were going to a club and i tagged along, he was there. I danced with this other guy because the other girl that was with us left, and then he started grabbing my hands and i let him because i was extremely sad about what had happened and he was conforting me. Well he saw this and went outside with his friends, then rumors started saying we made out and what not when we only danced. We went out the next day and i told him to please forgive me, and even begged him to forgive him, even though i dont really think it was too much of a big deal i still felt bad and wanted him to forgive me. and he did. Then over the next week he wouldnt really talk to me much, most of the time i would be the one that started the conversation. That weekend we hung out again and he asked me to be his girlfriend again, but i said no because i thought it was for pity because he had treated me horrible that week and had pratically pretended i didnt exist. A couple seconds later i rethought it and asked him to be my boyfriend again, to which he replied “no i dont want to anymore!” so we just sat there at the bench ad just played around, and i told him, when we were saying goodbye, that i wouldnt be able to be his friend until i forgot my feelings for him because it hurt too much. when i got home we started chatting and i told him starting tomorrow i would not talk to him anymore. He cried and begged me to be his friend, so i felt really bad and i did actually wanto to be his friend, so i said yes. From then on, everything turned horrible, he would no even try to talk to me, i would always started the conversation, not even at school would he talk to me considering we sat closely every class. Then this last month, people told me he now liked this other girl, but then his best friend told me it was just a hook up, and that hurt me considering i had always thought of him to be a decent shy guy that wouldnt never even kiss a girl who wasnt his girlfriend. Then he stated posting pictures with him and his girl – friend who, while we were dating, told him to tell me that she was just a friend but she would always invite him to hang out, and then someone also told me he liked but didnt want to lose his friendship with her because of what happened with me. I asked him and he denied these two things, and actually got mad because he said i thought he was a man-slut. Also, at a party, his ex (who has been after him this whole time) supposubly followed him around and made him dance with her, and that was it, thats what he told me. Then i found out no only he had done that, but he had also taken pictures with her almost kissing and very lovey dovey, and when i subtly ( kinda) asked him about it, he said yeah, i even have the pictures. So my image of him being a good boy was crushed, I dont know if i wrote it well enough to express the things he did, or if theyre just small stuff, but he knows i still had feeelings for him and he treated me “like shit” as a friend put it. Now my question is, how can i stop my feelings for him? because i cant help thinking about him and how quickly he moved on, but he always glres at me whenever im with another guy, and over message he’s told me he still had feelings for me, well that was a month ago. We’ve been exes for three months now, and i still hurt from seeing him and still want him in my life being the egocentrical, selfish, hipocritical guy he is (i told him he was that all the time while we were dating but he knew i didnt mean it the offensive way and we would just laugh about it) … Help?

So my ex boyfriend of five days ago just emailed me. Email because I changed my number. He left me for another girl who is buying hi. Stuff that I don’t agree with. He says to me, “I hope your ok. I know you start your new job soon. I hope you got your tests done for that. I hope we can still be best friends, and I really want to be apart of your sons life, I love him. Ok love tall. Until then….” What does that mean? I have not emailed him back yet. We have talked during the last four days, but yesterday I stopped texting him. So can you help me understand this when he was the one who cur it off. And our last night together he couldn’t sleep, and while I was sleeping he kept telling me for four hours that he loves me. Over and over again. So I’m confused.

Hi Chris, I dated a guy for 6 weeks, (5 dates/hanging out and multiple daily text and picture messages). I had my guard up at first (he was laying it on heavy with how much he liked me and wanted to be with me), and then he asked to be exclusive after 3 weeks. I agreed (we had already slept together a few times), and everything seemed good for a few weeks after. Then for a few days he started to get distant. I didn’t ask what was wrong, but I did text him first just about what I was doing, etc, and texted him multiple times one night (I had been out drinking with friends, I should know not to drunk text). I didn’t think anything of it, because he had been the one pursuing heavily. Anyways, he pretty much disappeared. After a few days, I texted him that he must have a lot going on, take care, no hard feelings. He didn’t respond. We really hadn’t been dating that long, but he did ask me to be exclusive, and I started to really like him. I did text him 5 days later after the no response text, thanking him serving for veterans day, which he responded “thank you.” Since then, no contact (almost a week). All my long term relationships started out hot and heavy, so I didn’t even think twice that he would disappear, never had that happen.
Is there a chance he will come back? I “thought” we had a great connection.

November 18, 2013 at 6:37 pm
Sure there is a chance but you have to also accept the possibility of him not coming back.

I was with my boyfriend for 7 months he broke up with me and said he didnt want to be with me. He told my friend that it was because lack of communication.I asked him if he loved me or if there was someone else. There was no one else and he said he loved me and I’m 95% sure that he was telling the truth. He talked to me and said he wanted to still be friends. I had my feet on a stool and he picked them up and out them on his knee. He then kept trying to tickle my feet. I love this guy so much. Its not the worst fight we’ve had I told him why we lacked of communication (he started to keep his distance from me) I then got sad and barely talked (when we were together why we didnt talk). I told him why we werent talking and we said we would fix it and we talked it over but didnt change anything. He broke up with me the day I was going to tell him that we needed to fix it. I cried so much. I told the friend that he texted saying that we broke up because lack of communication (from beginning) that he looks happy and I started crying. She told me that he was dying inside and that she could tell. My other friend told me that he could see it in his eyes. That day about 20 minutes after she told me that I started to pretend to be happy and I was laughing I looked over and saw him look at me while I was laughing and he got sad. He told me he was shaking when he broke up with me. Hes broken up with me once before and regretted it and when he cried I held his hand. Do you think hes going to come back? He was my best friend before we dated and during.

Yesterday he said I still had feelings for me and he somewhat missed me and that he gets jealous when guys talk to me. Then he said he just wanted to be best friends like we were before we dated. If were best friends like we were before we dated won’t we just end up liking each other? I don’t know what to do.

I want to be more than friends. There will always be that one piece of me that will always want to be more than just friends. He said he never changed his password because it was an important date and it changed a lot of things in his life. He keeps sending me mix signals so I don’t know if he wants to be with me or doesn’t. I feel like he does and he’s trying to be my best friend because we act like a couple when we are. But little things he says makes me think he doesn’t because he says he just wants to be friends like we use to. When he said he didn’t tell his mom because he didn’t want to made me think Ohh Okay maybe we might get back together. I just don’t know.

Wait what? I never asked him he just mentioned it because he said he probably didn’t know my password and I said I dont know yours and he said he never changed it then he said he never even told his mom we broke u

I also did not do the No contact because the longest we havent talked (since the day he started being my friend) was 1 day. Once we started talking has friends we never stopped. The longest we’ve gone without saying a word to each other was 1 day.

I was in study hall and I was laughing and I think he started to cry because he saw me happy my friend even said he looked like he started to cry. Then in my second study hall I was with friends and he kept looking at me and he looked really sad.yesterday he also told me he still liked me. So I dont know. The more happier I act the sadder he gets. Hes the type of person that if you dont talk to he moves on so the no contact won’t really work but me talking to other people is making him sad.

No I think it will b/c it reminds him of what he lost.

So I shouldn’t talk to him? What if he talked to me? I trunk there’s also something personal happening with him because he said something was wrong but he wouldn’t tell me why.

Well if you are in NC then no, no talking to him.

But he broke up with me because I wasn’t talking to him? I don’t think that will make anything better.

I think it will… look you are going to talk to him eventually but give him some time to flatten out emotionally.

He use to do it when I wouldn’t talk to him because I was mad at him and he’d get really sad. He showed me something on his phone today and i accidentally locked it and the password pin popped up and I asked him what his password was (thinking he would change it since he told me he never changed it ) and he said it was still our anniversary then he kinda smiled. I’m trying so hard not to talk to him but I really miss him.

we didn’t talk at all today I went in his classroom because my friend is in there and he walked in the door looked at me and swallowed his Silva. He keeps doing that now he like tightens up when he sees me. Is that bad? I caught him looking at me a few times today too.

No its kind of a thing that a guy will do when he is nervous or wondering what is going on in your head.

hey .. I have been dating my boyfriend for 1 year and 2 months .. we both love each other a lot and we tried breaking up because it got hard .. he works and is in school . he kept saying that he cant give me what I need? what in the world also we were planning on moving to fl together but we just both arnt prepared for that. so he is moving to fl with his mom and sister and he keeps saying I hope that I run into you so I can finially take care of you.. also he broke up with me and wouldn’t keep his hands off of me afterwards so we both decided that we are going to stay together until the day he leaves and then move on and get our lifes together but is that healthy or not?? I just no I love him and he loves me.

Probably one of the most heartbreaking things to be seperated by distance. Have you read the LDR guide before?

Thanks i read the whole thing! Its definitely hard taking on a long distance relationship but since we have broken up he is in contact with my daughter. She is just hurt as i am. He told her he just needs time to get back on his feet. He has some personal problems he is going thru and i need to respect that. We both have a responsibility and I also need to give him time to figure it all out. Do you think there maybe some hope for this to come together again?? My daughter and i both adore him and are willing to wait.. is that a good idea for us to do?? Should i wait for that call?? Or text?? I want to help him thru this tough time, but dont want to get in his way and get him upset or even more stressed then he is. We do live 500 miles away and i just want him to know im here.. and for support, but how when he asked for time and living so far away from one another “( your advice is deeply appreciate!

Hi, my boyfriend and I have been together for almost a year now. We recently broke up due to an argument we had a few months ago. We said it was a really bad one. Things were saidthat i didn’t even mean. I feel really bad. I love him so much! We live 500 miles away from each other too! It’s really hard for me to not call or text him… im used to seeing i love you and i miss you texts. I scheduled for a visit on the 20th of this month. I want to go so bad but i think it will make matters worse and my chances of getting back with him are slim if i do go “( what do i do!? Please help!!!

I did the NC for around one month and it worked- He sms dated me out but ended he suddenly couldn’t make it to come for meet up, the reason is he wanted to hang out with friends. I’ve waited him from day to night and he just informed me the last min… I got insane n calling him non-stop and cried like mad on the phone, he gt scared away n said my reaction disgusts him… yea i know i screw all the effort i made… what should I do now? start again NC? We planned to engage nxt year but he broke up with me n saying he’s living an enjoyable life with a bunch of friends without involving in any relationship… Kindly assist ='(

“Hey! I heard the sports exhibition is coming up next week. It makes me smile that rmb how much you love to play badminton. Hope you are doing great! ;)”
I sent messages that show no desperations in the content like above.
He dated me out finally but no show up! I waited from day to night, calling him non stop, cried out loud n made him feel annoyed and avoid me. Until now it has been a week I didn’t make contact with him. Is it still possible to get him back? Pls help 🙁

I was with my boyfriend for 7 months,we worked together & he broke up with me because after 7 months I told him I loved him (no one had said it) and a week later he ended it because he said he didn’t feel the same way and I deserved better. At the time (and still) I think he was scared by the prospect of being with just one girl & that things would be too serious. He was always the single go-getter amongst his friends & a few of our mutual friends had recently become pregnant/engaged.
Because we worked together NC was impossible but I got a new job 2 weeks after (not related) so left after a month. He still text me about his promotion first when I still worked there but after I left we turned to NC. I did break and text him once for a brief how are you at the start of July but we haven’t spoken since.
It was my birthday this week & he text me happy birthday so I said thanks and asked how he was & he told me his promotion had become permanent that day. So I told him about my promotion and he said he was proud of me.
I’m not sure if he text to genuinely wish me happy birthday, to brag or if he wanted to tell me this good news still, despite not talking for ages.
Does he miss me? Was he trying to make contact and I ended the conversation so he left it?
I was doing okay but since he text me my head has been totally consumed with him. Should I make contact?

Only after NC.

But we already NC-ed for 4 months, which he has now broken. Surely if he’s broken it NC has worked?
As a guy surely you wouldn’t text your ex you haven’t seen for 6 months happy birthday without a reason?

Ok so I tried the no contact rule and I think he got angry and starting acusing me of cheating and that there was another guy on the scene still I did not respond
Help?
admin
November 16, 2013 at 10:02 pm
I guess you can tell him there isn’t but don’t engage him any further.
Amy
November 17, 2013 at 8:56 pm
Thank you.
I did the no contact for three weeks so not as long as you recommended …. it’s been 5 days since the last text just simply saying ‘cheat’ this is the third message saying about another guy… I think it may be shock tactics to get a response I think it’s too late to respond now what do you think?

Hey i love a guy madly.. We got broke up many times… But recently we patched up again… But he don’t call to me. If i message him then only he replies to it… He changed a lot…he chats with unknown girls in the facebook and asks the girls phone numbers. I warned him not to do this for more than ten times. But he never stopped… I tried NC a lot but as im mad for him. Im not able to do it. If i don’t talk to him one day i feel like a difficulty breathing. . Please help me. . .
