Hey Chris,
I will try and give you the condensed version. We dated for year no commitment. I was at the point where I had to go one way or another he didn’t want a relationship and made it perfectly clear. I was very successful with slowly disappearing from his life and decided to Just to clear my head and gain a grip on my emotions I did a 30 NC. At the end I decided that I was better off and wasn’t interested in seeing him anymore. I SERIOUSLY considered ghosting him but figured after a year of dating that would make me a major B####. So I initiated contact and TRIED to break things off for good. Words cannot explain how happy this guy was to hear from me and did not want things to end and started talking marriage, kids, progressing forward with a relationship! HUH???!! This dude is confusing the hell out of me and I am thinking of going another 30 days just because I have absolutely no idea which way to respond!

I met this guy my junior year of high school. We hung out occasionally during my senior year because he was away at school. I graduated & summer of 2014 rolled around. He asked me to hangout all summer & things got pretty serious (he met my family I met his, etc.) I knew there was an end date though because he would leave for the military come October 2014. We hung out more & more & it felt like we were dating. Before he left for boot camp I had the “what are we talk.” He said he didn’t see us as bf/gf, which caught me off guard. The only communication that we had while he was away were via letters. In one letter he referred to me as his girlfriend which through me for a loop. I was off at a university when he graduated boot camp. In all of his letters he said that he’d visit me…he didn’t. He went off to more training & we didn’t talk. Valentine’s Day comes & I receive a text from him. It was short like he wanted to catch up. Finally in March he asks if he were done talking. I said I think we should worry about our own lives at least until I graduate from the university & he’s done with the military. I am extremely good at cutting people off & that’s what I did. 7 weeks ago after 6 months of no contact I receive a text from him. We’ve been talking about everyday – text, phone calls, facetime – something we never did before. He told me he loved me & that he wants me back. I’m not quite sure how to take this. I can’t tell if he’s messing with me or not. My family and best friend hate him but I feel like he’s a completely different person. What does this mean?

Hi I do love your writings I keep coming back to read and remind myself of NC. I broke up 3 month ago after almost 2 years of the relationship. We were hanging out casually as friends but then I couldn’t take it anymore and started NC. On my day 4 he started contacting until yesterday day 9. Yesterday he told me it’s going to be his last try and that he wants to apologize and check on me. I’m not sure whether it’s even a good sign because he always seems so cool and calm about it. He cares about me still but I guess as a friend. Do you think it’s a good sign and should i continue for good? thank you

Do you think his apology will include him wanting to get back with you or do you think he wants closure? If he wants closure then ignore him and continue with the plan.

I am dealing with a guy who is alternating between being happy, angry and neutral.

I was never in a full-on relationship with him but we were quite close and it was really rocky between us with a lot of fights. He was originally open to the idea of a real relationship but has changed his mind saying there’s too much drama. He says i “don’t know how much the drama bothered him”. I’m trying to get him interested in a relationship again.
After a 2 week no contact period we are talking again and its confusing. He teases me a lot and gets very flirty and there’s a lot of happy banter…. but the smallest thing gets him suddenly really angry, he’s acting like he’s still oversensitive from our past fights.
Other days he acts like he just doesn’t care and seems distant and uninterested and i feel like im bothering him.

How do I handle him, does he need another no contact period? I’m confused coz it’s like he changes every few days towards me at the moment.

He doesn’t really bring up the past but he gets mad about new things that remind him of our past arguments – things he would have never gotten angry about a year ago. Overreacts to small and seemingly innocent things
Chris Seiter

October 23, 2015 at 8:27 pm

Two weeks doesn’t qualify as NC. That’s probably why your seeing those alterations in his moods. If you do two weeks nc and then keep going back and forth between nc and talking, your going to put yourself in a hot and cold relationship. You should be strict about doing no contact and do it for 30 days this time. You shouldn’t bring up the past at all and if he does change the subject.

What do you do when after non contact the first thing he responds with when you contact him is ‘We arent getting back together’?…….we have broken up before and got back together so i feel like hes really on his guard.

Chris Seiter

What kind of text elicited a response like that? Did you talk about getting back together?

Hi Chris,

My boyfriend and I broke up two months ago. It was very sudden and nasty on both ends. He got scared and ripped the rug essentially from under me by saying he just “can’t do this” or “intersect his life with anyone else”. After a few days I gave in, and contacted him crying saying sorry and asked to talk and he shut me down. After a few more weeks of fighting via texts, I gave in and started NC. He wrote me saying sorry two weeks later and I replied only for him to disappear again. I began NC again for the second time and on the 30th day (yesterday) he initiated contact with me me saying sorry (yet again), but still continues to be stubborn and refuses to discuss things in detail/ in person with me. At this point I could go with or without him because I refuse to subject myself to someone who refuses to meet me 1/2 way, but I still want a face to face conversation to understand all of this/ his reasoning (we still haven’t seen each other since the day we broke up). I’m at a standstill and do not know what to do. Thanks.

Did he say why he wanted to break up? What was the specific reason?

I am very interested in a man I have had a close long distance friendship with. We were interested in each other and talked about dating. He said he did not want a long distance relationship but would want to see where things would go if I lived closer. Still, we continued talking and flirting all the time and it felt like we were dating, at least to me.

I became possessive, insecure and more intense than he was ready for. We began fighting quite a lot, he said the fighting was really stressing him, backed off gradually and eventually ended it after a year, treating me just as a platonic friend.

I did a 2 week no contact period and limited contact for about 2 weeks after that. At first he contacted me saying how much less drama he has in his life without me, but then he started warming up, initiating conversations, becoming nicer and eventually very flirty again and weve stopped fighting.

But i still feel stuck… I am currently much closer geographically than I was, but only for 3 months. Still long distance but a lot closer – about 3 hours away now. I would like to use this time period to get to know him better and spend time with him, especially as we’re both currently off work tIL at least christmas. I wont have another chance like this to spend a lot of time with him for a long time but i also dont wanna push anything when things are still fragile.

He is talking to me most days and has been flirting with me heavily, but hasn’t invited me over and seems resistant to seeing me in person or even on webcam. I’m not sure what’s happening or what I can do. We’ve been talking regularly again for about 3 weeks. I’m confused because he is being quite sexually intense with me but making no move to actually meet and do the things he talks about. I haven’t seen him since last year and miss him terribly.

Hi Chris – this is my situation. I slapped my husband 4 months ago due to jealousy (which he kept denied). He told me I hurt his ego and we went throught separation – until now. He stays in his parents’ house, so do I. I am the perfect example of a needy and desperate wofe who wants her husband back — crying, begging, stalking, trying to get him back through his friends and family — no success. Things went worse since he involved his whole family. I continuously sending him messages-sometimes he replied, sometimes he doesn’t, but I can sum up it was all dry messages, no emotions involved. I’ve been trying NC method and failed it successfully (shame on me) that I am so desperate and think that there is no way we csn get back together.
Here is the problem:
1. I promise him that I’m changing into a better wife, but he gives me no chance to show it to him. How can I show it to him?
2. I can tell how hurtful he is. I tried to see him once but he didn’t want to see me. He didn’t even say sorry for not showed up. Will NC method works well on us? Considering he’s been ignoring me so well and looks like he loathes me. Thank you for responding it, Chris.

1. Sometimes you have to show it to him indirectly
2. I think it really can work.

I follow to the core your advises. Its been 47 days since I broke up with him. There was no cheating involved. He is acting like a victim. He sends me messages regarding a business we ran together. Things he wants to know. I have contacted him twice thrue email. And no answer. I broke up with him because we had no communication other than work related. I know he loves me we have been together 4 years. Why isn’t he responding. How long will it take.

I have tried the full 30 – 45 days of no contact with guys before in the past. And it never worked…usually I never get a response and then I would wait another week or two and try again and still nothing until eventually I would just give up. When is the best time to give up? What are some reasons the NC rule wont work? I never had a terribly bad breakup with any of them. Usually they were just mutual at the time or we just got annoyed with eachother and fought. Other than that it wasn’t anyhting bad. So why didn’t it work?

Hi Chris, me and my ex broke up a week ago because he said that he got back with his ex. And i was doing my NC since then. However, i just wonder if he cheated on me. If he and his ex did not broke up( which he told me that he broke up with his ex when he dated me). Is he miss me? We had a good time together and he text me every single day for 1 and half year straight. I can feel his love, but all of the suddent, he broke with me. And, the day before break up, he even asked me to go travel together. So we had no argument before we broke up. And we barely had argument in our relationship. I love him and care for him and he knew it. I just wonder why he get back with his ex? Even he is not really love her? He keep saying sorry to me, but no contact since the day we broke up. (one quick question, what you think if he has sexual issue such as ED?) is that any chance that i can get him back since he did not text me for a week now

Nice website Chris,

I’ve actually used no contact twice in my life but didn’t realize it was a “rule” each time I did reunite with my ex’s but no contact was used once for two months and once for two weeks. I’m currently using it again after being dumped. It’s been two weeks and he wrote a letter of apology after I left his apartment after him telling me I invited myself into his life. By the time I got home he had sent a letter of apology that I didn’t respond to and he has sent a few text messages. We are so much alike and can be unpredictable. He probably is surprised that I’m not blowing up his phone becAuse that’s what I would have normally done. Now he’s sending short text weekly asking how I’m doing. After 30 days I think I’ll just write and say I’m ok just needed to take care of a few emergencies. thise emergencies are taking care of myself and making sure I’m staying on track at work. I have totally neglected myself for 3 months trying to show him how much I care for him. It’s time to build myself back up. This is indeed an emergency. I’m not 25 anymore.

Actually, I told him he wanted his cake and to eat it too and at this point is where he said he didn’t eant anything and that I invited myself there etc… Initially we had planned it together but I guess he forgot. I asked him twice “so there’s nothing going on between you and I” and he just sat there and I so changed my flight back … The night before I left he played Adele “someone like you” and Alicia keys “if I ain’t got you”… He mentioned In his letter that he wish he had the courage to talk to me before I left.

He had to move away for work. We were friends for three years up till that point. I was miserable at work focused on my changing careers rather than trying to date him. I never led him on. After I got my job I was ready to try it with him. I felt more secure in life but he he announces he was leaving. We did hang out for two months before he left without putting titles on it and he was very lovey dovey and tender. I became a little needy the last three weeks before he left but never crying or anything. After he left I had an anxious moment one night and sent him 5 text in a row. Nothing bad just typical “why aren’t you answering the phone” I miss you etc… He said he didn’t want to date long distance and don’t want me to move for him. After two months I visited him ( in sept) and things were good the first two days the third day I informed him I was coming back for Halloween and he said “we’ll see and said he didn’t want to plan” and basically I told him I’m not desperate and didn’t want to be anyone’s number two. I asked why he texted me so much and he said it meant nothing. I kept calm and changed my ticket back to my city and the morning when I left he didn’t get up to hug me goodbye. He said have a good flight and I left. When I landed he sent a email saying he apologize for being so harsh with me and he appreciate the house warming gift I bought but thought it was best I know what to expect from him. He can never say directly “I don’t want to be with you” it’s like I’m a fallback plan that he text everyday just in case. meanwhile he chased me for 3 years or maybe he was only trying to seduce me for three years. I went into NC as soon as I left and at 21 days now. I do love him and its hard ignoring him but he hasn’t sent any more text since day 14. I’m going back for Halloween and not for him but because I wanted to be there anyway for Halloween. My 30 days are up 7 days before Halloween and I’m thinking about touching base to say hi. Thoughts?

Do you mind if I ask what caused the breakup?

October 7, 2015 at 6:53 am

Hi Chris! Is there a chance of my ex going back if he broke up with me because he said he wants to try something new? I begged him and became needy in the last days of our relationship then he said he lost feelings for me (in a matter of days) and wanted to break up. I finally agreed. I made no contact and broke it on day 5. I said I want to talk, not to beg him but for closure. He agreed but he cancelled due to his sched. I asked him if we can do it the next day, but he didn’t respond, and since that, I never contacted him again. I deactivated my twitter, never used my fb, instagram, tumblr. I deleted every social network apps on my phone! I don’t stalk him as well and I don’t want any news about him. I told my friends and family not to give me any info about him.
However, he is confusing me. My family had a bonding (at a grill, my cousins and aunts and sibs), and my cousin posted about it on fb (pics which I was tagged). My ex liked it. And my cousin also tweeted about it, I was also tagged and my ex favorited it as well. I learned all this through my cousin because when she updated and tweeted it, my ex liked and favorited it right away so she told me. This is kind of a big deal for me because this is during no contact and he didn’t even care about my posts when we were in the verge of breaking up; he wasn’t liking it, even when I changed profile pic on fb! And on twitter, he wasn’t favoriting my tweets or replying to me. Why is he doing that?
And here’s another. When we broke up, we had an agreement not to change anything on social media yet because I don’t want to deal with the people’s reactions yet. I told him to give it at least three months. He agreed. But last week, he changed his profile picture already (according to my friend, I know they’re so annoying for telling me these things lol). It wasn’t even a month since our break up (it’s been only 3 1/2 weeks) and he already changed it! He knew that it would hurt me when he change his profile picture because I told him that before but he did it anyway. Why is he doing this?
I didn’t do anything about it, I didn’t do the “revenge.” I still just kept quiet. I don’t want him to think that I am still reacting to his actions.

Anyway, it’s my day 30 of pure no contact. And I am proud of myself. I don’t have any urge to contact him. I’m feeling good but I miss him sometimes. I think I don’t want to get back together with him but I just want to feel wanted after he left me, I want him to want me? Do you get me? I am confident and much prettier right now (accdg to others lol) because I am taking really good care of myself during this no contact period. I am wearing prettier clothes now and treated myself a lot lately. 🙂

He also never contacted me during the 30 days. He is a narcissist. Haha.

Hi Chris,

My ex broke up with me a week before I went to work in the US for 2 weeks. I implemented the NC rule and on day 25 he text me to see if I was back. I replied with a short ‘yes xx’ I shared a picture of my hire car ( he is into cars) and he replied within 30 seconds saying ‘Im not jealous at all 🙁 lol xx’
Where do I go from here? He knows that i want things to work out between us ( I told him this in our last conversation) , it is him that ended things.
Do I now wait and see if he contacts me again- or do I try to initiate a telephone conversation? I dont want to be the one chasing him around, I made that mistake when we were together. I am higher value than that.
I did say to him when he broke up with me that I could not do the ‘keep in touch’ friends thing. I dont want to be dangled on a string excited that he may still want to be with me, when all he is doing is checking I am OK to make himself feel OK.
I am a little confused on what to do next. Could you help me please?

Chris I dont think you’ve written an article on this topic yet, but I would like to know what you think about this.
I notice that you focus on getting an ex back via no contact which the way you suggest implementing it is brilliant. However what if the aim is to get a certain behavior to stop, like him talking to other women and being a constant flirt to the point that women have accepted his advances. We’ve been together almost two years and whenever we have a fight and I say Im done (which we always makeup within a day or two) but he always quickly has a backup to go on a date with due to him always communicating with women while we’re together. I found this out by going through his phone and his response was that he can’t help himself, yet he wants to marry me and have kids … I don’t get it.
I texted him 4 days ago and told him I’m done dealing with this from him and he can feel free to talk to whoever he wants. Ever since then he’s been a nervous wreck calling me all the time and leaving messages saying how he doesn’t want to lose me and that he can’t live without me and that he’s miserable, but he never once said he will change his behavior in any of the messages.
My question is do you think his behavior will change and if so will the no contact for 30 days help with that change or is this a lost cause?

Chris Seiter

Interesting…

That is a difficult thing to accomplish indeed.

There are so many variables and generally speaking change is possible BUT extremely difficult.

HE IS SOOO CHARMING CHRIS!!! I started no contact a week ago and I really miss him but I’m staying strong, I’ve already decided that I wil do this! The only thing is that he keeps calling and apologizing via text, he has sent flowers to my job and he is expressing his love in every way he can. But he does this everytime he does something wrong and I ignore him for a couple days then I give in.
My problem now is that I’m pretty much done with this 2 year relationship, he constantly talks to females on fb, he signs up on dating sites, he seeks women out in every way he can although I honestly dnt believe he’s had relations with any of them, but still I’ve expressed how it makes me feel, and eventually its gonna happen if the opportunity arise i feel. On top of that he has anger issues and makes very disrespectful jokes about everything anytime anyplace, that he really doesn’t think people should take serious.
I am willing to take him back after the no contact period if he has gotten some help for his anger management and his disrespectfully rude jokes…otherwise I will not look back.
What should I do if he doesn’t get the help himself by the end of the 30 days? Should I talk to him about getting help one last time or just assume he doesn’t care enough since he didn’t get the help (we’ve had many discussions about it and he’s never followed through) Also, if he has gotten the help he needs with his anger issues, what do I do about his problem with always seeking women out … he claimed that he does it because it turns him on to talk to hot women that he may never get a chance to be with (I’m pretty hot, but he likes black girls with a nice figure and a massive ass lol…. that I don’t necessarily have ? … I’m hot with a nice body but not a great big butt so I dnt knw if he’ll always be talking to women with a big butt since physically that’s just what he likes. WHAT DO YOU THINK ??? (I’m black he’s greek)

September 27, 2015 at 4:01 pm

Chris- I have commented on your site many times and never get a response back but i would SO appreciate one if you even see this. My ex contacted me towards the end of my NC period it was about a week before the end and i responded we did not speak about anything serious. However since then i reached out once to him to see how he was doing and we spoke briefly and then i haven’t heard from him since. I see him often and we don’t speak but he has looked at me intensely as he did when we first met with a look that says, to me at least, he is still very attracted to me. Then sometimes he will barely acknowledge my presence and seem to want to avoid seeing me at all. Sometimes i want to just give up and move on and then i think i put in all this work during the NC period and this person means something to me i don’t want to give up with out at least trying. What is your advice for me?

Chris Seiter

October 1, 2015 at 6:15 pm

Sorry about that Nicki,

No one is guaranteed a response anymore since I get so many comments.

I basically have to pick and choose randomly but I choose you!

Tell me what have you been doing during NC to improve yourself. Half the battle of NC is that YOU get something positive from it. Check out my new article on NC.

Amanda

September 27, 2015 at 2:37 pm

Well I MADE IT! I’ve actually gone beyond my 30 day NC. I have the “I have a confession….”text typed in and waiting for the send. I have the follow up text ready that says “I went out with a friend for sushi last night. It actually made me think of you, and the night we first met – made me smile. That night was a really nice time.” Problem is I can’t seem to make myself send it and initiate. We didn’t have a bad break up but a parting of ways because his ex wife (who was a mess according to him) found her way back into the picture and he was conflicted with what to do. We agreed to not have contact until he figured things out. Mayne my ego is getting in my way? Idk. I did improve myself and all that was suggested, I read the books etc. I even met someone a few weeks ago and have had a few dates. I guess I have nothing to lose so might as well reach out. Let’s see what happens. Is that a good starter message ?

October 7, 2015 at 11:07 pm

This is my exact problem, except wouldnt you know it I am 7 months pregnant with his kid, he has two children with the ex girlfriend. Apparently the ex was deemed “crazy, psychotic, b****,” and many other choice words not only from him, but his work people, boss, friends, and family. She created drama, I put my foot down, and left, we were still in contact “working it out” and she weaseled her way back in. Because of me being pregnant I heard from him last week. But I don’t initiate conversations. I respond as needed, but then say “thanks for asking, have a good night” the convo ended last time with me saying, “I miss your kids. g2g have a good night” he did the “they miss you too..” expecting more? not sure.
Amanda

September 29, 2015 at 4:56 am

I sent the first text…he replied “What’s that?”
I waited an hour and sent the second…..I heard nothing.
I have read I wait a week and initiate again but what do I initiate this next time….I do not know if he is now with his ex but I am at a loss as to what to say. I do not want to come off as chasing , but rather intriguing I suppose. What is a good text to send as a second means of communication and when shall I just quit ?

Jamie

September 22, 2015 at 4:26 pm

Hi there– here’s my situation. I have an ex that contacted me after 4 years. To make this abbreviated, he sent me the worlds longest FB message describing how he used to be so insecure that it was disgusting, that he changed religions, how much he wished I lived where he was (we have a state between us), and the 2 big ones: he left because he didn’t have the vulnerability he needed back then, and that if he could go back, he would have “clung to me like crazy.” Back then, I truly loved him. He was a total blankety blank but he was also quite young from a terrible past with a lot of growing up to do. So I figured I’d give him a shot. Anyway. Things were starting off incredibly well. I decided to be vulnerable, open, to be encouraging and to tell him how much I respected the changes that he’d made. He’d respond immediately, call me, tell me about his day. At one point, we discussed that I was going to fly out to see him but he said he wanted to take things slow so that we wouldn’t get too heated too quickly. In spite of this, there was some spicy texting… But he still wanted emotional conversation, and when I’d encourage him, he’d tell me that what I said meant so much. Well. Randomly. I told him “Goodmorning, baby, I’m proud of you, I hope you have a great day. ?” His response was less instant than it usually was, but he only delayed about 5 minutes. He said, “Can I talk to you about something? These texts are way too passionate and I’m not sure how to respond to it. Can we just talk like 2 friends? I don’t want to be insensitive but we are a very long ways apart and I am dating some over here. I don’t want to hurt your feelings.”

I felt like he slapped me. I felt rejected. He popped into my world, I didn’t pop into his. How unfair, I felt. I hadn’t said anything more passionate than he’d said. It just crushed me. I told him that he was the one who gave me the girl who got away speech, he was the one who apologized for running, and here he was running again. I said I was not willing to be “just friends” and that although I respected him and was happy for him, I had to let him go if that was how he felt. So I hit send and got total silence back. It’s been 10 days of NC and I’ve heard nothing. I told him I was going to block him on FB and he generated a new profile, so I blocked that one, too. My parents say he was just being a manipulative liar. But why fall on your face apologizing, humiliating yourself, begging for your ex to let you come back just to shut her down a month later? I’m so angry at him that I don’t know that I would ever give him another chance, but I want to know the truth. I don’t believe the dating comment, either, not that he isn’t dating, but I just have this gut sense that this isn’t it… I feel like he was yet again scared of vulnerability. Any thoughts?

Thank you. This is the coolest website. I changed my name, I hope that’s OK.

Hi Chris.. Hope all is good.

There I go… I was looking though Google for experiences similar to mine, how to deal with my situation after a break up. My ex- my dreary boyfriend leaves me un-tidy.. ?
There it’s the history… Meet him randomly in the street , I was a bit lost and just found him and ask for directions … The result I end up with him and his friends..(crazy ah! Yes very random) then he stay to chasing me … Until he finally got what he wanted invited me for dinner) he was texting me almost everyday until he completed he’s goal of catch my entire attention) … But that’s not all… After few weeks of dating he came to my place before we going out and update me about his life a bit.. Aware me that the next weekend he will be off to skiing and that wed (usually he always have by issues meeting dinner) for me was ok..! But he was using my Mac and went to Facebook!! So next day open the browser and saw his Facebook and we women are very curios (don’t we) and went though of a picture that took me to another and for my surprise I found out he has girlfriend “yes” As I said “girlfriend” … Noo good…. At all… After three weeks dating and thanks to my curios personality found he has girlfriend… I step back I await for his next move… I haven’t received any news from him in all the weekend .. Went before he was texting me everyday .. Weird ahhh… So I txt him saying…you know I know u had girlfriend and I would said please I least be honest and a men…. I just asking you to not call me anymore , not txt me anymore or have any kind of direction to me in any way… Good bye..! He txt me back straight saying “very impaction… So this its how we started … I said him he can’t do this .. Am not willing to do something that I wouldn’t like someone do to me .. But he told me he doesn’t love her and that he will leave her and we can continue together … And he didn’t have any kind of contact kisses or anything for more that a months… Result he dumped on his poor girlfriend .. (Not feeling guilty about because it want my fault I didn’t knew this before and if I did know it I will ver started this relationship. Anyway we continue together it was like magic .. It was a chemistry between us that in my entire life had with anyone.. And we were happy all the time .. I had to say that my trust to him it’s been build very slowly (hence his lies at the beginning ) but he show love compassion , advise and much more.. Everything all this time..
We did really have a close relation for about one year and half, then since this June’15 went begins to gave me awareness of “we should split up” and on the same time he still telling me how much special I am , and that he loves me. …. He it’s a very pretty busy guy, and implicated travel to Asia for work purpose … As I said in June he said and asked me for sometime to think while he’s away. I did have time and during his work trip he txt me and told me *i miss you very much” love you” I was so happy when I saw this… Yes we do love each other I am not doubt about it… And love doesn’t died from one day to another… So he doesn’t wanted to leave me go. Then after an intend of almost one months an half leaving together and having very nice life i avian have him space.. all what hi asked basically hi came again with the samething… Just few days before he will leave again to Asia. He said we should split out and we did. That night we come back home and I was broken I cried and asked why.. He said he doesn’t wanted to hurt me and he think we don’t have future together. That he think he it is wasting my time and his time. But after all we come back together holding hands going to bed but my hurt was so much on pain that while he was sleeping I leaved him sleeping without saying bye. He txt my in the middle of the night and asked where did u go..?! So I txt back and said that i went home. In the evening I end up again with him three days more just before he went off to Asia. He celebrate my B-day with me just the last night with his friends and I was showing sing of love to him kisses and cuddles .. At the beginning he was distances but during the curse he was showing to me lot… Cuddling kisses etc… So that morning went he awake I had help him to packed and Without crying I told him I Love you…. (never crying .. ) and he used to called me ronnie, I said I still u Ronnie ?!he said … And in a point he back to the conversation and told yes… I are my Ronnie… For me that was a concern of that truly hi doesn’t really let me go… !! Now ..what to do… Am confused… Half of me it’s already thinking it’s gone .. The other half looking my heart said don’t give up… Our goodbye was .. I will wait for you.. U will miss me.. He gave a big hug and kiss me and said “take care” …

That’s the last time I had seeing him. Sent a txt just before my flight take off… (Went holidays back home abroad) as Also he was about to land in Asia. I said did u arrived safe? He txt me back straight and replies yes , are u still awake? I said I am about to take off… He said ok have a safe trip..! And I replied him… Joejoe am missing you already. I love you.. Xxxx his replied was : I miss you too X

That’s all . I send I txt a week after asking ; how was work things ,how was him and if he’s having good time. He said; yes all good here 🙂 how are you. But I never replied to that. Next day he txt me back again asking if I call him because he can’t access to his voicemail.
And after six hours I replied and said ; No I didn’t. (That seven days after break up). So I wait another week he doesn’t contact me and I was waiting for him to come back after 13 days abroad .. So a week after last txt and the day he supposed to come back from his trip which was Monday me at 5:30 am here where we leaving went I awake to go to work I called him without ID just to know if his phoned was switch off (if finally his flying back keep calling but not answer )instead I got a txt straight away from him saying ; just in the runway… It Was a surprise ! Wondering how he knew it was me!! ? Anyway he was certainly right it was me. So I hold and didn’t txt him back until late in the evening … My message was ; welcome to ??? ☔️ London 🙂 xx and that’s all no anymore contact since then. It’s almost another week .. It have been five days since he come back from Asia but totally all the whole period dice he was away and now he come back are about 21 days. I dunno what shall I do!! He should contact me as he was the person to dumped on me… But I love him so much that my heart telling me not o give up … I am concerned that I have 0% control in his actions but… I do know I do have 100% in all of mine… And this help al lot… Specially in hold to my dignity as a women… Never beg him and never I will… Please need your advice .what do you think about all the history..?
