    Please help!!!….so I have gone NC with a guy I was dating for 3 months who said he couldn’t commit to a LDR with me. He did say though that he would be happy to meet any time in the future for drinks. I am currently on day 15 and I am doing well. I am focusing on working on myself-For myself. I travel a lot for business and I have just found out that I will be in his city next week which will be day 22 of 30. What do I do? You told me to wait until his birthday on day 40 to contact him but can I let him know or is it going to blow my chances or ever being together (even though I am not sure that’s even what I want I do want to be on good terms with him) I dont know when I would be able to see him again after NC and already by next week it will be almost two months since we last saw each other and heading for 60 plus days…isn’t that around the time he would start to forget about me?? I might add that there had been no begging or desperation in this situation, I simply accepted what he said and went NC.

      Hi Louna S,

      If you are going to see him, that means you have to stop the count by then.. So, either that, or just continue nc.. it’s ok.. It’s your choice.

    so something came up and my ex is leaving for military in 2 weeks….not in a month. so i didn’t do NC because he is leaving in 14 days…..and then no communication for awhile…so i can do NC then….but today we were talking and i mentioned something about food i bought and was eating it in class and he told me it sounds like a good deal etc…then i didnt get a chance to reply but he texted 2 min after saying what ya up too 🙂

    and then he said whoops no smiley face and then said in class like what class are u even in

    i got very sketched out that he might have sent the wrong text to me and sent it to that girl hes been getting food with constantly….what do you think? i got mad at him and asked was that text even for me and was it a wrong text if you said no smiley face. he said that hes typing on fb and on his dota game online at the same time…..and he said hes been using alot of smileys in game………then i said so you sure that text was for me or was it a flirty text for that girl youre seeing? and hes like uh ok think whatever u want. so then i said funny cuz when guys get caught in a lie they say think whatever you want……and he said fuck it nvm im never gonna ask you ever again and to tell me to quit this shit. he told me few days ago that he promises to do his best to remain good terms with me on the future.

    what do you think this was when he sent that? should i just believe him that he actually meant to use the smiley face in another convo and got it messed up with mines? i am also surprised becuase it has been a VERY long time since he cared what i was up too……he never usually asks what i am up too

    I was in a LDR for 2yrs and we just broke up yesterday. I went to study English in US and I met him, since then we were together. I’m from Brazil and when I had to go back home we decided to make it works. Then we used to see each other 3 times a year, I didn’t work so it was easier for me to go. We made plans about he comes to Brazil to visit me and meet my family 4 times, and all these 4 times something happened and he gave me an excuse, like “I can’t afford this trip now” “I need to buy a new car” etc. Two months ago, when he was supposed to come, he told me he couldn’t bc his brother had just graduated from college and they had made up plans for a trip, then he went with his brother and friends to DR. He didn’t text me even once time while he was there and when we came back, he asked me to forgive him, he loves me, I’m the most special girl he have ever met, he couldn’t lose me, etc. I know I’ve been so much comprehensive and patient, I forgot him bc I love him and o thought now we would really make an enforce to come to visit since I’m working and studying so I can’t take vacation so often as last year. Then a couple of week later, I start to pushing him to buy his ticket to come for New Years but he told me he couldn’t do it bc he was struggling. Some days ago I started to wonder if would be better we get into a “open relationship”. I told him about it and he didn’t like it but then after some time of conversation he agreed with me. After a couple days I knew I shouldn’t had proposed that so I told him we need to talk. We did talk and I told him that it wouldn’t work so we should try harder to be together or break up, but he was confused and told me he need to think about it and would give me his final decision in the next day. Next day came up, the next one and the next, he wasn’t answering my messages (I was texting him all day) neither picking up my calls. So I decide to talk about with his brother how is his best friend and maybe would help me to understand his mind. I explained his brother the whole situation and he told me he would talk with him. One hour later, I got a text message from him saying I fucked up texting his brother, he was embraced, angered, he hadn’t answered me before bc he need some time for himself and if I wanted an answer now, he thinks we shouldn’t be together anymore.
    I text him saying I knew that would be the only way to get any message from him and I was truly sorry about that, and that he didn’t understand my situation, he just made up his mind and didn’t say anything to me. That I understood his point but he should have a little bit of consideration about my feelings. I thanked him about the great moments shared and maybe one day we find each other in the future and I was very sorry it had to end like that. Then we answered me we still loves me and cares and I would always have a friend in him. And he expected we still be friends. He wished me the best and always to be happy.
    After he text me that, I didn’t say anything else. It’s been so hard to be apart from him, I love his mom and all his family were very receptive with me. Everything I wanted is say I love him and I want to be with him forever. But I can’t bc I know it’s not the right time for us, we are too young. I’m almost 22yrs and he’s about to be 21yrs in the next month, but at the same time I still wanna fight for our love. Btw I’m already wondering if I should call him for his bday or if I should just text him. I gonna graduate in a year and a half then I plan to move to US but what gets me more scared is thinking about he meets some other girl during this period. 🙁
    What do you suggest me to do to have him back in my life?

      Hi Brazilian,

    I am in the NC period. Since we are a continent apart, all of our texting was on Whatsapp. The app notifies of the message was read. If he text me during the NC period should I visualize the text or not? What should I do if he calls me during the NC period?

      Hi C,
      it would be better if you dont read it but if you do, dont answer..just leave it read..if he calls, dont answer.. he’s probably going to message after if it was an emergency..

    Hello,

    I was in a long distance relationship for almost a year, and it was great. We hadn’t met yet (we planned to in the upcoming summer), but we had our ups and downs as any relationship would. Just last week he broke up with me because he doesn’t love me as much as I love him, thinks he would be better off as a friend for me, and just isn’t ready for a relationship with anyone in general. I told him shortly after trying everything to get him to rethink his decision that I need space until further notice.

    He didn’t completely understand this, and contacted me two days later wanting to Skype and just be friends. He really seems to want a friendship with me and told me he’ll still be there for me no matter what, as he still values everything we’ve shared together. I told him that I need time to get over him, to which he got upset about at first because like I said, he wants a friendship badly, but I don’t yet. I kind of got bitter and told him he’d regret everything he told me. I finally ended up telling him that I need time to stop loving him if we can’t compromise in agreement to keep a relationship going, to which he finally agreed to. So we said our goodbyes until further notice.

    I’m three days into No Contact (shooting for 30 days of it), and I know that’s early, but reading through the materials on this site have given me a lot of hope for what may happen in the future for my ex and I. I can’t help but worry though, and wonder “what if he feels the same way at the end of NC as he did when he broke up with me?”. Much advice would be appreciated.

    Thank you!

      Hi Jess,

      the nc just helps to increase your chances. It’s not a guarantee that you will get him back.. And the nc helps because during this time you’re going to improve yourself while giving him space..

    Hi

    Me and the guy who have been dating for 5/6 months broke up last month. To summarise our relationship so far he is already a guy who said he is not sure if he wants a relationship and from what I know so far he hasn’t dated anyone seriously until he met me. He quite liked me when he first met me and first month he was so intense that I felt he was so needy and then over few months he is okay and over time I developed feelings too so it is mutual. We met once a month provided our long distance (275 miles ). 5th month he was so nice to me that he even wanted to join me in my holiday to Europe ( I travel a lot on my own). He introduced to me to his friends a few of them and talk highly of me and appreciated me. And he is a guy who is a bit OCD, never dated any girls before as he was focused in his self improvement etc. he has this habit of always giving me unsolicited advice ( which I knew it’s a man’s habit) and overly criticise me on why my pictures are boring and how horrible my hair is etc ( I don’t want to be bragging but I’m in fact a pretty looking, career focused strong independent woman) Over time I found he has been over controlling and criticising and not respect me. So we had few fights in the fifth month. And then came out holiday which was terrible and disastrous as he was a bit aggressive towards me, made me cry s few times and verbally abusive even. Some days he was nice. At the end of holidays we broke up.

    Although I know he treated me badly I still have feelings for him. When we broke up I didn’t want to break up as I thought I will give both of us a month or two time to think over wat has happened and also I felt half of his behaviour may be due to his stress ( he needs visa sponsored at work etc) but anyway he broke up saying we both are strong personalities and won’t get along very well and he never even apologised for his behaviour. Anyway I still have feelings for him and wish things could go right.

    We continued texting even after break up for 4 days and then I realised we are not going anywhere if we keep texting. So I did NC and never contacted him for two weeks.

    After two weeks he called me many times last sundY and I called him back as I wasn’t sure why he was calling. Monday he talked to me for 20 minutes casually with full of laughter and as if nothing has happened – yet no relationship talks.

    I made sure I am not developing any hopes and I thought I will move on even after this phone call.he texted me next day saying he is flying to Spain for work for three weeks and I take care of my cold and cough. I didn’t reply until evening and just said have a nice trip.

    He started texting me that night and while we were texting he called me FaceTime ( I didn’t appear on video as I wasn’t comfortable ) and because I was coughing I only spoke for 5mins. The following day alsohe texted saying he has got new running shoes etc and after tat we exchanged few texts. Thursday I was so used to him now that I sent him a meme in the evening for which I had no reply and after that no texts from him until today ( 3 days).

    My question is why did he call me when he was the one broke up and why did he keep in contact every day and then disappear now ( or is he just busy ?)

    What should be my action now ?

    Please advise

      Hi Venus,

      realistically, if he doesnt want a relationship then that means he’s just being friendly..even if he doesnt want a relationship, it doesnt mean he doesnt want to talk to you too.. and it looks like you’re not the chasing type, so he feels safe to continue talking to you..but it doesnt mean you cant build rapport and attraction later on.. Try it..
      continue talking and having fun, take it slow, but set a time..if it doesnt progress, move on

    Hello,
    Me and my boyfriend have been together for 6 months and 2 of them in a LDR. Since I moved to university sometimes I have been acting a bit jelous and paranoid and we have had several arguments about that and it has whore him out with time.
    Last night my boyfriend almost broke up with me after i kept insisting to talk on the phone for a few minutes while he was out with friends since he had been very busy working for the rest of the day and didn’t manage to talk. After i suggested that he couldn’t talk because he didn’t want to talk to me he called me and told me that this was it and he wants to break up because he is tired listening to me complaining about the things he doesn’t do but that he would wait until today. Today he told me that he is not breaking up with me (a friend of his talked him out of it) we talked on the phone and I accepted that I was on the wrong and I apologised but i know that a lot of damage has been done and i want to start fixing things but i dont know where to start. I’m visiting him this week for a few days. I know that he feels like i don’t trust him and don’t appreciate him as a boyfriend and the fact that he always finds time to talk but I do, it’s just that I’m not very good at showing it. Now he sais he still loves me but he feels cold towards me and that i need to show him that i can change and it is worth staying in a relationship with me. Please if you have any advice on what I should do it is much appreciated I am in a desperate position right now.
    Thank you!

    I finished 43 no contact rule so far. I am about to initiate texting. But in a LDR case, should I send him remembering text? (As i see the advice above) Not like the thing he is interesed in? I was going to text him about opening new seafood restaurant he likes.. (we always tried to find good food) so I wanted to take him if he was here. and that made me thought of him in a while. Kinda thing. Please advice. Thank you:)

      October 24, 2016 at 9:36 pm

      hmm..I think it’s too intimate to say that you wanted to take him there before..a funny memory would be better because it’s light..

    Do you think after everything that’s been going on that ive told you, him not seeing a future or no relationship and strictly wants to be just friends and him telling me to stop bugging him etc, since 2 years is a LONG time in the future, do oyu think he will forget and move past this all and will see me as a new person? Or do you think these kind of problems being controlling, needy, anxiety, will make him not come back in 2 yrs even tho I changed? My biggest fear is that he will not see me with an open mindset and will realize that I’m not the one or he doesn’t have feelings anymore…..its so scary thinking about this all even if its 2 yrs in the future……I hope the army changes him well…

      October 24, 2016 at 11:42 am

      Did you talk to him after that?

    3. EBR Team Member: Amor

      October 22, 2016 at 3:25 pm

      it will depend if you really changed at that time.. I dont think he thinks he’s being mean, he’s annoyed and his actions were necessary for you to stop chasing him..

  10. J

    October 21, 2016 at 11:42 am

    I know he is done and doesn’t want to think about the future together when hes back from military service. He says he seens no future and everytime i talk about the future hes all like thats something for in 2 yrs and well see then. Then he told me to stop buggig me its all you do every single damn day. I apologized and sent abillion texts saying sorry talk to me if i stop bugging ill stop etc. he read my texts and ignored me. I asked him to promise to remain good terms with me for the future and he said ill do what i can?

    What do u think is going thru his mind? Do u think bes completey thru with me? Im doing NC now for real…do u think he will realize how mean he was and talk to me even tho he told me stop bugging hom and thats he done

    Hi,

    So yesterday he sent me a voicenote, telling me that our relationship had meant a lot to him and that it was really important and that he will always remember the good times, but that he really needs to be alone right now so he asked me to please stop trying to contact him or his mother, that he really needed to be left alone. Needless to say, i didn’t contact his mother she called me to ask me how i was doing because she didn’t know we had broken up i told her by mistake thinking she knew. She asked me what had happened and i told her that he had told me he couldn’t handle the distance and our fights because of it, that he thought we were amazing together but that our reality was another. She was really confused because the day we broke up, aparently he had been talking to her about coming to see me but that tickets were to pricey and that she offered to help but that he was not sure he wanted her to help. The day after she called aparently she talked to him and then she wrote to me saying that if things in fact get fixed and we decide to continue being together that we should learn to take things calmly and relaxed. I guess i got my hopes up but then yesterday i got that message from him. I told him that i would respect his decision and leave him alone because he is a really important person to me and that i would also work on myself and accept the fact that we are not together anymore. Yet, i don’t know what to make of this situation, i don’t understand why he would be talking about coming to see me and then suddenly breaking up. I’ve decided to go NC but it’s been really difficult, because i love him so much and honestly we had a really good relationship we just needed to work on managing our LDR arguments. Also the day we broke up i had asked him to talk about ways to better manage the relationship and he broke up with me saying he wanted and easy going problem free relationship and that he didn’t think ours could change for the better, not long distance at least. I told him we could work it out but he was so stubborn. I don’t know what to do really :(, i am very sad and my heart is broken. But I’m living each day trying to do things that make me happy. I even got a new opportunity on a proyect that i really like on my new job and I’m really excited about it. How do you think i should proceed?? Do i have a chance to get him back? I’m really confused.

    1. EBR Team Member: Amor

      October 21, 2016 at 3:57 pm

      Try first.. start a new routine for own life.. you talking to his mother just added to what he might be thinkinh that you’re too hung up on him.. even if you didnt initiate it..so, if you want to increase your chances, start nc and move on without fully moving on, aim to be the ungettable girl..

  12. J

    October 20, 2016 at 7:13 pm

    i pushed him away and now hes seeing this other girl…..obv hes happier with her but he told me hes not that guy cuz i questioned about the girl and he said shes a friend and he wouldnt find a fling before the army……

    if i disappear and do NC now that ive completely pushed him away hes gonna be so thrilled im not bugging him anymore 🙁 he will forget about me and not care if i message or not

  13. J

    October 20, 2016 at 6:53 pm

    I wil really try to do NC….i went too crazy on him asking about the future and he kept telling me to stop….i think ive pushed this too far…….please help……..is there absolutely no more chance now considering how far ive gone…..?? ive hit the point where i keep talking about our future together and he keeps saying to stop bugging him cuz its all i talk about….but when i try to talk normal he ignores me and wont text me……im so sorry for being annoying to u….ive hit rock bottom might have ruined the future….the future is so long away……so i understand why he doesnt want to say anythng about it….but cant a girl think about it

    October 20, 2016 at 4:39 pm

    I just want to share my experience about NC.
    I did the NC, day 23 today. No facebook, (i restrained my self from fb as well, as it would have been too easy to “accidently” read about him / his posts, since we have mutual friends, even that i had unfriended him on fb).

    I looked for things i could do, met bew friends, said yes to 2 dates (just coffee dates wouldn’t do any harm , it gave me back some of my self confidence and good times).

    It was hard indeed, but the choice was sitting in my room and weep or try to face the world. (Still weeping now and then even on the train full of people, and there was bad days and good days. But again, what’s the choice?

    I am feeling much better about my self now. I have even forgiven him , (but still trying to forgive my self). All these NC days have been giving me time and space to see what’s what, from many perspectives, not only mine.

    Please fellow heartbrokens, do it for your selves. Do not spend time worrying if he forgot about you or move on, nothing much you could do if he does so anyway.
    You still have time to get him back after NC, (if you still want it), but then, it will be better and calmer and more mature you.

    Thanks for the support , admin.

      ok, no problem! Well, you have to pick a good memory or something that’s current that is interesting for him..like for example,this is just an example.

      the newest walking dead series has aired, I would text something like
      “I just saw the trailer of the new season of walking dead.I thought of you after a long time! How are you? Have you seen it? What do you think?”

    hi there it’s me again.. I am so glad to read your advice and I really appreciate that.. thank you so much 🙂
    About this ex of mine, as I mentioned last time he is preparing for a text that he will be taken this month of November, He told me that he already quit his job in his country two months ago to focus to his exam. and he told me that all he does is studying day in and day out. But the thing that i can really understand is why he sometimes acting like he cares and there are times that he acts so cold ,as cold as snow. everytime we exchange messages, he sometimes so active but most of the time he replies late and short. Then he told me he and his friends will be here In december and he wants to meet me,, ofcourse I refused it but he said if I won’t meet him then they will not come here.. I really can’t understand .he told me he likes me,he said he likes me so much but he needs to act like this, he said he needs to be cold to me ,why? he didn’t tell me the exact reason. it is also crazy that after the breakups, he adds me to facebook.( originally we weren’t facebook friends when we were couple because lot’s of people in the academy are curious about our relationship). I really don’t know his mind…Then one time he saw my picture on facebook wearing bikini. then he send me a private message telling me “fat it doesnt look good” so I was surprise when I reply he was gone so i deleted the said photo. one more thing every time we chat I ask him to use video call but he always refuse he said he doesn’t wanna see me because everytime he sees me even online arouses him and making him falling for me again..
    I still likes me but why is he acting that way? I really can’t understand… is he just playing with me ? or he just wanna keep me because he said compare to his other ex gf I am the fairest..when we became couple i asked him why did he love me he said he loved my face ,so i don’t know what to do and what to feel
    thank you so much ….

      is there any ways that I can do to know if he still loves me or he just said that or I just feel that because i want to feel that? how can I know if we still have chance? Actually for a year of being couple we never had any big argument, we sometimes have misunderstanding but never slept with it.
      so is there amything i can do to bring him back? or I have to let him go though it kills me inside?

    I decided to start NC with guy I was dating for 3 months who said he couldn’t commit to a LDR with me. I was going to do 30 days, day 40 is his birthday. Would it be a better time to contact him and simply wish him happy birthday or is that too simple?

    My LD ex and I were together for about 7 months. He broke up with me before going back to his military base saying he wanted to focus on his career and wants to “be young”. So we created a (true) friendship. I went down to visit him two months after we broke up and I think we both realized we weren’t over each other, but neither of us said anything about it. A month after that, he was very distant and barely talked to me for 3 weeks and it was weird. Finally he said that he tried to take a step back from me, but couldn’t help but come back to me. Then he said that he fully believes that we are meant for each other and are going to end up together (married eventually) when he comes home (in less than 2 years). A week after that he said that “You should focus on you, and I should focus on me”…I haven’t heard from him since and I haven’t contacted him. It’s been 5 days and my intuition is telling me that this is nothing to worry about. Of course I have been nervous about never talking to him again, but only for a few minutes. I was supposed to go down there for Halloween, but I only want to go where I am wanted. Should I just write him off after he said about the focus on only ourselves? Or just give it time and space?

      Hi kate,

      try to give him space by doing no contact, if it doesnt work out, move on..dont just stop contacting him too.. improve yourself..nc is more for you than him..

    i dont know why i am having a ridicilously hard time doing NC….today I texted him saying why im being annoying etc cuz the future to me is an important aspect and i told him why im willing to wait 2 years for him etc….and he said “ok” to everything i said but then ignored all my other messages when hes clearly online unless hes sleeping and trying to sleep….idk…….is it too late for NC?? after everything ive told you about on this site! I left way too many messages that he will see of me saying hello where are u and why are u ignoing me etc…….and i just said ok text me tom then i assume youre sleeping….when he keeps showing hes active!!!

    should I do NC….is it too late to get him to miss me after i basically suffocated him with messages. i asked him about the girl he is seeing and he said shes just a friend…should i just trust him?

      even if it’s too late, does that mean you’ll keep chasing him? Does that mean that will give you a good impression once he leaves in December? Ask yourself why you would do one thing, so that you can decide whether you’ll do it or not..
