Hello Chris,
Me and my ex boyfriend were together for 6 months and broke up about 4 months ago. The reason we broke up is because i discovered he has a baby who is 4 months old that i ddnt know about and he ddnt know about too.But the baby was conceived while were not together. He wasnt sure the baby was his so he did a paternity test behind my back before he told me.So we got into a huge arguement and i ended up breaking up with him. i still love him so much.i have completed no contact for 35 days and i have been following ur advice and he does respond nicely but the problem is everytime i send a good memory text or the jealousy text he shuts down and doesnt respond.why do u think is doing this and how can i get him to talk more?
thank u.

Wow, that is pretty shocking.
A baby.
I think he needs to internally work this out himself before he is ready to consider taking you back.

Hi Chris. Few weeks ago, my ex fiance asked for a break up. Immediately after, i went NC for around 35 days or more. I sent him a long email answering to his 2 emails during the Nc. We finally met up and talk about the real issue behind the break up and truth is, it wasnt the first two reasons which is fighting or trust. He said that the real reason is because he dont feel happy bout himself and that he has depression. He told me that he has been going for counselling. During this meet up also, he kept on talking about if i were to be in his future (example: our kids happiness will be my priority) but at the same time begging me to let him go. Which i did. He told me to keep the engagement ring as a sign he loved me and was crying badly when saying so. He also asked me to keep the ring so i will remember him.
I know i should do NC again Chris, but whats next? Im noob in relationship matters. Your insights as a relationship expert is much needed.

I hate the emails. I wish you would have subtly built up attraction after the NC rule.
Maybe you go ahead and jump into NC for 21 days this time.

I can feel your enthusiasm i. this podcast and i also listened to this first thing in the morning while having reakfast! I have a quick question (and I am asking this on behalf of my sister who is confused too). What if it went like this, her boyfriend told her he wanted some time off or space, she was confused if he meant breaking up because websites here and there say that wanting time off is a red flag for “I want out.” And the click here is that he is seeing this new girl who is undergoing depression and he is starting to have feelings for her. I am asking this question because I feel it is relevant to some points in this podcast. Seeing the situation, A position of weakness makes a man want to care and cling all the time, but you mentioned that it is good and important to act in a position of strength. I’m hoping for some clarification because I’ve also been seeing couples here and there who stick it out because both are coming from some sort of position of weakness and they “need each other to become stronger.” I’d like to hear what you think of this. Thanks!

I think you are right.
Some couples both need each other to become stronger.
Here’s the thing though. When you look at couples like that they are equals.
When you look at a woman who is trying to get her ex boyfriend back they are not equals because she wants him and he doesn’t want her.

okay, but given this situation: wouldnt it make him drift further away from his girlfriend because this other girl “needs him” more than she (who is strong) needs him? Having the “my girlfriend is strong she will be okay” mentality and the “this other girl needs me so much I have to be there for her.” what can you say about this? i have read your stuff and i was thinking maybe we should just let him be and make him friendzone that other girl. That would mean sis would have to walk away?

To be honest I think men are more selfish than you give them credit for.
I think with men its all about which girl makes him feel the most emotions.

Give him the break.

You have said that convincing ex to get back doesn’t work because it will make me more need and unattractive.
But why do you suggest how to convince ex? Convincing still works in some situation, right?
I and my ex have been together for 2 years. He is my first love. We shared a lot of emotion together. We broke up since Jan and now I am in the 8th day of NC. Should I come and convince him again after NC period?

Are you talking about convincing or begging?

Can you explain the difference? I am too confused.
admin

If you convince someone you do it through emotions and influence. If you beg someone you are asking them to be back without any influence you created.
