    Hey Chris, so I know this guy for two years now and he asked me out about a year ago and I said no, I really liked him but wanted us to be more friends for that time, and I told him that and he said he can’t be friends and I need to stop contacting him, And I did, for about 4 months, when I texted him again asking if we could be friends now, and again he said no, we had a text drama over why and all and didn’t end well but I left him alone for another 6 months. I recently texted him again asking him to stop treating me like a wall especially that we go to college together and we have mutual friends so it gets akward, he was very nice about and apologized and he said he just can’t contact me I was his first love and it takes time. At this point I think I am starting to develop feelings for him and I want to get closer to him but he is completely blocking me out. I told him in the recent convo via text that I want us back and I miss him and all and he just said forget about it, it’s not worth it be happy with what you have, he even told me that the guy I always hang out with is a great guy (they are really good friends,so he doesn’t seem jealous), but he did admit to still having feelings for me. I am so confused. He is completely ignoring me, last thing he said is that he shouldn’t be texting me and that it’s not worth it. I implemented the no contact rule but I still getting the same result. I honestly don’t know what to do I want to text him but I know he will just push me away. He is moving away soon too so I am panicking because soon it might be the last time I ever see him or text him before he changes his number (he is not into social media), Im panicking please help! Thanks

    I was in a relationship with my boyfriend for 3.5 years. The last couple of months were not great and he felt I was not giving him anything emotionally and we were just going through the motions. I think I just got too comfortable and thought he would never leave.

    We broke just over three months ago and my ex was very emotional and angry with me for a number of weeks after.

    Then he contacted me saying he was thinking of me and we met up a few times, then he went quiet again. Before we split up we were in the process of buying a house and we have gone through with the purchase. We moved in a few weeks ago and although we are having interaction he is saying that he doesnt feel the same. He seems very down and distant with me and I am worried I am loosing him forever.

    Most advice is related to no contact or similar and this is very difficult when you are living in the same house.

    How can I approach this situation to try and bring him back to me and re-ignite our spark which was always so great prior to our last few months together?

    Hi, my boyfriend of 4yrs brokeup with me, he said he’s tired of me and the relationship, I cried and begged him not to leave but he insist and I decided to let him be, 2wks later, I contacted him, we chat, and laughed but during our chat, he said he already have another girlfriend that he met the girl the day we brokeup bt he still care about me and will do anything for me, he promise to take me out on a date probably to the cinema house to watch a movie, don’t know if I should go, he said we are friends, infact his bestfriend, he asked if I can sex him but I said no, since we are no longer together, anything like such can never happen again. I still love him wholeheartedly and I wish we are still together, can I still get him back, with the new girl he has he has, and is his relationship with the girl a rebound relationship, how do you think I can get him back cause I still love him and still wanna be with him

    Hi I’m fifteen and me and my boyfriend broke up recently and he said he wants to be friends. I have to see him everyday in school and he sits next to me in one of my classes so I’m not sure how to do the 30 day no contact. Should I just not call or text him but if he comes up to me and says something should I show little interest ?

    1. admin

      December 9, 2013 at 7:22 pm

      Looks like you will have to do a limited contact instead of a full no contact.

    You told me you voted for text and we haven’t talked I’m four months. Should I text him on his birthday that’s in two days?

    1. admin

      December 9, 2013 at 7:09 pm

      No I would do it after the birthday.

    2. Jen

      December 9, 2013 at 8:05 pm

      Okay I’ll wait till after his birthday! Since it’s been months since we’ve had any sort of communication what kind of text do you recommend I send?

    3. admin

      December 10, 2013 at 6:42 pm

      Just a good first contact text message.

    Hey Chris, I really appreciate your help, you and your site have helped me so much through this process and I would love to know your opinion in this matter! :). I’m nearly done with NC. It actually ends tomorrow (I made it through the full 30 days woo lol) which happens to be a bad day to text. We’ve spoken about this before but you probably can’t remember. You told me to wait a couple more days, so I’m planning on texting him a few days later :). My problem is with the first texts. I know what my first text should be, however if he responds that night (it wouldn’t be a good idea to text during the day) I don’t know how to respond to his text. I know I’m supposed to say I’m going out for a meal with friends and cut the conversation short but because of it being this certain day in the week I couldn’t be. This means I would be lying and he would Know this due to my circumstances. He knows that I would be at home. Do you have any ideas as to what my reply text should/could be? I don’t want to lie, I think that would be a bad idea. What should I use as a reply text to cut the conversation off?

    Again I really appreciate help, you and your site have been amazing! Looking forward to your response πŸ™‚

    1. admin

      December 9, 2013 at 6:52 pm

      30 days WOOT WOOT!

      You don’t have to say your going out for a meal. You could say something more realistic like you saw a show on TV that the both of you liked.

    2. anon

      December 9, 2013 at 7:19 pm

      Yea I already know what my first text is going to be :). It’s the responding to him after he (if he does) replies that I’m not sure what to say. I know I should cut the conversation short, but I’m not sure how. Maybe say I’m really busy working? I work a lot from home on a night. I think I kind of just need a reason to cut the conversation short but I can’t think of one :/

    3. admin

      December 10, 2013 at 6:37 pm

      Yes busy working should suffice.

      Hey Chris just thought I’d let you know. I started NC from the day after we broke up. I never begged for him back or contacted him for over a month even during the times I was worried he might find someone else or was doubting the NC rule. I stuck with it and also made your suggested changes both physically and mentally and I’m happy to say it has paid off! πŸ˜€ I feel much better about myself as a person, gradually building up my own core confidence and working like a trooper! I sent my first contact text today using your template as a guide and got positive responses! His texts were short but they had lols and kisses on the end which has to be a good sign right? So far so good. I think I’m going to stick with the first step for a little while before I start moving onto the next stage, I don’t want to scare him off, I’ve read a few comments here where that seems to have happened because they moved onto the second stage pretty much straight away. Patience and taking my time is key right? I think I’m going to wait a couple of days before I text him again, who knows he might even text me first? Anyway I just wanted to let you and anyone else who’s reading this know that good things do happen in the other end of NC πŸ˜€ and I will keep you posted! Thank you for this website and all of your help so far. I know I have a long way to go yet, but a good start is better than not making a start at all :). Keep up the awesome work Chris!! πŸ˜€

    Hi, 18 months ago a friend of mine introduced me to a friend of hers. We started to hang out, got to know each other and spend more and more time together as time went on. Let’s call him person A. At the same time, about two months after I met A and started spending time with him, a longstanding friend of mine of 6 years also told me he is in love with me and asked me for a chance to date. So I had two guys wanting to date me at the same time.

    Since I knew B so long and had feelings for him before I quickly fell head over heals in love with him. I really loved him and felt he was the person I wanted to marry. We know each other so well. But just before I decided to go for him instead of A, it came out that he has an ongoing struggle with porn addiction. And to top that off, his addiction got him into serious trouble a couple of years ago. I mean serious! Jho! That floored me completely! I felt like someone just hit me with a baseball bat in my stomach. I started to google about porn addiction and it didn’t look good. I just saw red lights and thought it best to call it off at that time. I was 31 and wanted to get married and didn’t want to be in a relationship with those serious kind of red lights at this time in my life. It broke my heart in a million pieces, but i did it.

    Shortly after all of this happened, I decided to go into a relationship with A. Big mistake!!! Without me realizing, it was a rebound relationship and I was constantly missing B and wanted to go back to him to work things out. So here I was still madly in love with B, but completely broken up and angry about his porn addiction, investing in a new relationship with A, who is crazy in love with me. After 6 months I tried to break up with A, but he didn’t want to let me go that easily. And I didn’t enforce the no contact rule because i felt sorry and horrible about everything. So what started as a rebound relationship ended up in an unstable, back and forth relationship where I broke up with him every 6 weeks. The relationship lasted for about 6 months, then 2 months on-off, then two months of seeing each other less regularly, then it was finally done. We are still friends at the moment. No hard feelings. He really is amazing and we both want to keep our friendship.

    While this rebound / on-off relationship was going on with A, B was waiting for me to break up with A and go back to him. He eventually came to me to tell me he is tired of waiting and he gave me an ultimatum. I got so emotionally strung out that I broke it off with both of them. I was a complete emotional wreck by this time, because my emotions were so all over the show. Crazy, emotional, drama chick galore! That was me! I did it all wrong man! Funny things is, both of them still wanted me. I had to be the one to call it off on both sides. So I eventually called it off with both of them and told them to leave me alone, so that I can get of this emotional roller coaster and feel like a human being again and figure out what I want to do. I’ve been out of this situation for about a month now and I feel a whole lot better already.

    Where are we now after I broke it off:

    B did a no contact on me – for a year! That’s what he said. I don’t know how serious he is. And he said he want to date other women.

    A and I still have contact from time to time and a trying to build a normal friendship.

    Crazy situation, i know! I got myself into on big mess. Lessons learned – don’t make any definite decisions when you are emotional and unstable and not thinking clearly!!! The no contact rule works like a bomb! And ultimatums usually backfire!

    So my question is, how do I

    1) go about establishing a friendship with A? He really is an awesome guy and he stood by me in this whole mess, so I don’t want to loose his friendship, but I also don’t want to lead him on and give him false hope; and

    2) go about getting back with B, who’s doing a longer term no contact on me, in order to work things out with him? As time goes by, i’m not too sure I want him back as a boyfriend – both of us got really hurt and have a bad aftertaste after the whole drama and the feelings of love and being in love is slowly dying. I think i’m permanently scarred when it comes to men and porn. I hate that stuff! It should be banned in my opinion. But in spite of that, i’d still like to talk things through with him and re-establish the friendship we had before all of this happened.

    I know this is a higher grade situation, so you input would be greatly appreciated.

    My girlfriend for 6 month broke up with me because she still has feelings for her ex, she said she has feelings for me as well but she has feeling for him as well. That she doesn’t what to lose me as the ex already have a baby and a wife but she still has strong feelings for him, she even drunk kissed him one day in town and she been saying if she can kiss him then she might do anything, that she cannot be trusted. I. Have tried to talk it. Over with her but she is confused and I even said this to her “Cindy I know you got feelings for me and also some for him so I don’t want to rush things. I really enjoyed all the good times we spent together and when you’re ready to start seeing people again, we should hang out. I know we have something together but I don’t think we should do anything until you’re sure you’re ready to move on. She said she doesn’t want to move on, please advise me on what to do..

    Hi Chris,

    When my ex and I met we had amazing chemistry, talked for 18 hrs straight. The second and third day was about 4 hrs. Talked about anything and everything, even meeting ea others families and how we haven’t connected with anyone like this before. We were together for a month when he broke things off bc he said things were moving too fast and he wasn’t ready for a relationship after getting out if a long one (3 yrs and she’s in another state) a year ago. I respected his decision so I stayed away and didn’t contact him. 3 wks after we broke up I shipped back some shirts of his I had, no note, just shipped them in a box with my return address and his address on it. He contacts me about a week later asking to talk. We meet and talk, same great chemistry- we talked for about 6 hrs mostly about how he missed me and caught up. Then days go by and nothing again. When I ask what’s up he just says the same thing, that he isn’t ready, the demands of his job also make it hard for him to be in a relationship bc he has been working 80 hrs/wk.
    I used the NC rule and I was on day 26 when I receive calls and voicemails from a blocked number. The voicemail says he got my number from my ex and to give him a call some time. So my initial reaction is anger bc my number is given to some stranger I don’t know and what’s more is that my ex gave it so I broke NC on day 26 and asked my ex how my number ended up on someone else’s phone. My ex says he left his phone at work and his coworkers called ppl on it. And I replied that the guy had said that he gave him my number and my ex snaps at me saying he doesn’t know and he left his phone and that’s that and that the guy was “obvi making shit up” I replied “don’t snap at me. I’m the one being bothered by it and that’s the only reason I txt you.” Nothing from either one of us after that.

    I’m taking that as a negative response. Why is he so angry when I’ve done nothing but be nice? And I’m one of the few ppl he knows in this town bc he’s from another state. Should I just give up on hope if reconciling? What should I do now?

      Men always seem to play the victim card even if they are in the wrong.

      Is every attempt to reach out met with negative resistance?

    2. Kourtney

      December 8, 2013 at 7:16 pm

      No. When he got the shirts I shipped back he txt me thank you.

      But to be honest I haven’t contacted him bc I’ve been sticking to the NC. Yesterday was the first day I contacted and it was day 26.

    December 7, 2013 at 10:57 pm

    so i do limited contact with my ex bc we’re coworkers but i cant be “happy” and stuff around him bc he ignores me and always flirts with this other really pretty coworker. we just say hi like once a week even though we see each other for 7. its really awkward bc we dont even look at each other and espcially bc he has a thing with the coworker i was talking about. 1. should i still text him when my 30 days are done in less than a week? i know he still isnt looking for a relationship and hes dating her and other girls. im scared itll be weird for him to get a text from me when we dont even talk when we’re together. 2. should i get him a christmas gift? like something small, i know he wont get me one but im not sure..

    1. admin

      December 8, 2013 at 6:45 pm

      No christmas gift. I wouldn’t

    2. jeanette c

      December 8, 2013 at 7:11 pm

      no present but should i still send the 1st text when i know hes dating other people right now and not looking for me back? especially bc we dont even say hi to each other when we see each other every day.
      also lets say u tell me to send the 1st text, bc we see each other daily would i make an effort to make small talk with him when we havent for a month? or send that text and continue not talking to each other.. bc i know he wont unless i do

      ok thank u. im on my 23rd day and i cried in front of him today. of course i didnt go up to him and cry in his face but bc we’re coworkers and classmates i literally cried (without making noises tho other than sniffles) in front of him. i feel like this completely lost my cred of confidence i built up the past month bc i know he saw me but didnt even bother to say anything. do i have to restart the 30 days? it was obvs i cried bc of him

      Yes… I am afraid you do.

    6. jeanette c

      December 11, 2013 at 1:45 am

      very sad lol ok so u know how i told u we see each other daily in VERY close proximity but we dont talk bc i was begging and crying for a whole month after he dumped me and was so mad he was meeting people i told him I NEVER wanted to be his friend. should i start casually making small talk with him even though i know he wont?

    7. admin

      December 12, 2013 at 1:35 am

      Only if its going to be awkward without it.

    8. jeanette c

      December 12, 2013 at 3:12 am

      i tried and he will reply but wont bother to make more convo. also he wont ever be the first to initiate conversation or bother to say hi and bye to me. when we dont say anything to each other, its not awkward bc it literally feels like we are complete strangers. theres a wall between us.

    9. jeanette c

      December 13, 2013 at 12:36 am

      continue small talk or no?

      5 and a half years, he says he misses me but wasn’t happy in our relation. why would he want to be friends if i didn’t make him happy?
      i’m really confused.

    hey Chris, okay so my boyfriend and I dated for over a year and then he broke up with me last week. He has a new girlfriend now but he’s admitted at he still cares about me and would do anything for me. I really want to get him back but how do I do that if he has someone new?

    1. admin

    2. Kimara

      December 7, 2013 at 7:12 pm

      And we have class together so NC would be harder.

      December 8, 2013 at 6:35 pm

      Yes looks like in your case limited contact is going to be ideal.

  14. very confused person

    December 7, 2013 at 1:24 pm

    Ok so i found out the last 2 months of our relationship, the reason he seemed shaky was because he started having attractions to my worst enemy. very pretty but nasty personality but he fell for her and he didnt like the idea of being in a relationship anymore and tied down. its almost 30 days and i had my friend ask him what he felt about me. we see each other everyday bc we have classes together but so its limited contact, the problem is we dont talk to each other at all or even look at each other. i tried saying HI a couple of times but its just really awkward. anyway i had my friend ask him and he told my friend he still doesnt want a relationship and the idea of being tied down. i also think he wants to meet new girls if he were to be with a girl instead of going back to an ex. its almost 30 days should i do that first text? again it might be really awkward especialy because we dont even talk or look at each other in person.

    1. admin

      December 7, 2013 at 8:09 pm

      Yes.. use the texting examples from this page.

  15. kessy

    December 7, 2013 at 7:27 am

    Yeah I did the 30days but on day 15 my friend used my phone to contact him asking how his mum was and you said ignore that and continue to the 30days which I did and when I contacted my ex he replied to the first text then I left it to 15 days before sending the second text which he ignored so I sent him the mail that was he replied saying the last week of our relationship was intense I I lost the baby and not telling him.so what would you suggest I do?

    1. admin

      December 7, 2013 at 8:06 pm

      I think you should tell him about the baby…

    Hi Chris
    Your article was interesting read, I thought it helpful to get a guys point of view. Guy I was dating for a month broke up with me, because he’s said he wasn’t ready to be close to anyone yet. He had neglected to tell me he was engaged to his ex before me and apparently not over it completely. Now they broke up nearly two years ago I think. Well I didn’t fight on it and told him I respected he choice. So two months go by, to which neither one of has contacted or seen each other, and his birthday comes up. I remembered so I texted him to wish him a good one. He thanks me and continues to text back and forth with me. Asking me how I was, and how my cat was doing, have I eaten anywhere new etc. after some back and forth texting he brings up the break up. Tells me”Hey, I’m sorry how I ended it. It was really dick. I was/am really attracted to you and I enjoyed our time together. I just kind of freaked out. Sorry. ” I really wasn’t expecting him to mention it, so I tried to reply with an honest answer. I told him that “thank you for saying that cause it really did hurt my feelings. I wanted you to talk to me about it but didn’t want to push you.” He then replied with sorry and that was it. It’s been a couple days and now I’m thinking if I said the right thing? Or if it’s a good sign he kept texting me and apologized again. I feel kind of bad cause I didn’t want it to get weird over text but he said that and I just answered what I felt :-/.. I still want to have another chance with him. But I don’t want to ruin it by going too fast since the first time around it seems like that’s what freaked him out. Any insight is appreciated what do you think?

    Hey chris,done 30nc sent my ex a text but he ignored the text so I sent my ex an email saying am fine with the break up bla bla bla and he replied saying that the last week of our relationship was intense and he needed the break from relationship and commitment then he replied to the text in the email,so does that mean he is still interested or what else do you suggest?

    Getting back together might be in my future… πŸ™‚

    I wanted to post this to thank you; while I didn’t follow your method to the letter, reading these articles and considering your advice really helped me distract myself in the short term, and thinking logically about what to do to encourage his good feelings towards me helped me in the long run. So thank you.

    And to everyone out there who might be reading this… Good luck. These things do happen. But at the same time, don’t put stock in your ex boyfriend, or even your current boyfriend. Put stock in yourself; be the best person you can be, and never stop trying to be even better. Good things will come to you in time. πŸ™‚

    For the comment that you couldn’t find the original question/message to this was my dilemma:

    So my ex boyfriend and I broke up mid June. We were on and off talking a couple weeks after our breakup but then of course got into another big fight and stopped talking again. A month later he reached out and wanted to meet up. We had a couple days of pure bliss and everything seemed like it was back to normal and that we were on our way getting back together. Till he found out that I had rebounded with a man a week before we had these two days of pure bliss. Mind you I had rebounded with having no sort of communication with my ex, and before he tried contacting me for this meet up. On our two day hang though he did ask me to be honest if I had slept with another man while being broken up and I had said no because I felt bad and didn’t want to hurt him even though I was single. I thought it was none of his business just like it’s none of mine what he does when were not together. Long story short he found out about this rebound the day after our two day hangout by his best friend. He never confronted me about it, just cut off all communication with me for good. Needless to say we haven’t talked once or ran into each other at all since July 25th. I decided to go with the whole no contact for a month but then months started to pass and.. Nothing. After the one month I sent maybe a text or two a month after and still nothing. He hasn’t replied to one single one. It’s been about 4 months now without any communication or since I’ve seen him in person, and almost 2 months ago is when I sent my last text. Mind you the first couple texts after the one month no contact may have been pity drunk texts but the ones after that were genuine texts. I felt embarrassed for not receiving an answer though so that’s why I haven’t said anything in the past two. I know I must really love this man because there’s not one day in the almost 6 months of our breakup that he hasn’t crossed my mind. I still miss and love him everyday. Another obstacle is when we broke up in June he decided to join the navy. In February he will be shipped off for boot camp. So I want to get into contact with him before that happens to see if I can save what we have or had. What’s the first step or step process you would recommend for me? Or is this mending relationship hopeless? I ask because I re read some of your new additions to the guide, and it’s a bad sign if they never respond even so long after the break up. What should I do? Help is much appreciated.

      I don’t think mending is helpless BUT I do think that it will be pretty challenging. First things first, get your mind back together.

      So by getting my mind back together do you mean to just continue to just focus on myself and no contact? From your point of view do you believe me not being honest about the rebound completely ruined it for me?

      Pretty much but more than that. Really focus on becoming the best human being you can.

      I think it didn’t help but I would hesitate to say that it ruined things completely.

      Yeah I completely get where you’re coming from. I’m definitely going to be working on myself, and becoming the best me I can be.
      Since you vote text I have one question about it. Coincidently his birthday is coming up in a few days, should I shoot him a birthday text and use that as my reach out for contact or another day that’s not his birthday. He never wished me one in my birthday that had fallen within our no contact period.

      Also should I try the call or text or email method or no? My main concern is how much time has passed with no communication..
