Hey, I did no contact and reconnected and everything was going okay.. about 19 days ago he blocked me.. he didn’t answer to my text and just blocked me.. even though the chat we had the day before was extremely positive in my opinion..
( i personally think he might’ve been busy during that time and then he didn’t know how he could talk to me again after completely ignoring my text when i needed him )
He has 2 numbers.. he blocked me on the one we always talk through after the break up.. a few days ago he unblocked me for a couple of hours then blocked me again on that number..
The thing is.. when we were together and even after the breakup i checked on him once.. he knows i worry about him.. meaning.. if i send him a ” are you okay? ” messege on his second number it wouldn’t be sketchy because i usually check on him if he’s okay..

Do you think this is an okay idea? or should i just wait for him to unblock me and text me first?

HI Aws,

how long did you do nc? How long have you been building rapport, how much did you improve yourself and being active in posting in social media during and after nc?

Thank you for the reply. I’ve got it figured out instead as i was really curious if he did block me or he’s just trying to look like he’s offline by being invisible in viber.. there’s no option that way in there so what he did was just trying to hide the online status by deactivating it. I chatted him with a casual conversation about a liquor he requested me to mail him which can only be bought here (i brought him one when i was there and he liked it). The message got delivered and he replied… Why do you think he has to do that (deactivating online status) after being online ‘always’? He was always online but we’re not actually chatting each other.. aside from Skype, that’s the only means of communication we used through mobile.. he downloaded it for us to be able to communicate. it’s his first time to use a smartphone when we started to get to know each other.. i was the one who instructed him how to do it…. (he’s not a techie person when it comes to gadgets for he’s from the old school). Probably he noticed i am not online as always maybe he’s not aware how to do it himself (i assumed he’s checking on me from time to time but never initiated a convey). I was really hoping after NC he’ll miss me and will initiate a conversation but when i went online after a week of not being online, i checked on him and he was still online but mins later i checked on him again and that’s when i noticed his status was no longer visible and that got me confused… 🙁 I don’t know how a man acts or feels that’s why i am asking for your thoughts on this… i miss him and our conversation and our time spent together. I don’t know if he felt the same… will there be a chance we’ll get back together? and that he’ll do everything soon and take the risk to be with me? Or probably he doesn’t like me enough to do that? I am trying to move on to being busy at work and tried to keep traveling and enjoying life but there are times i remember him and hoped he’s with me during my trips and that what if we’re traveling together.. that sort of things… we’re not friends on any social media..and i liked it that way though… your thoughts please? thank you

Truth is, it looks like he’s avoiding you.. You can’t control other people.. So, it’s better to focus in yourself and what you can do instead of waiting.. That’s why it’s important to be active in improving yourself and maintaining your new routine even after nc while slowly rebuilding rapport.. If it doesn’t work out, you just have to continue that new routine you started and let him go.

My ex wanted a break I became a text and call gnat . So he said he’s done for good. He even changed his number … it’s been two weeks since then . I was doing fine until I ran into him . He didn’t see me but I seen him now I feel as if I want to contact him but do not have his number . He has NO social media but has that WhatsApp . Would it be a bad idea to create one and contact him ? ?

My ex and i broke up almost 2 months now. It was a good breakup though coz we’ve talked about things and we’ve laid down our cards about our relationship and he said that it’s really hard for him to do LDR (right after my visit in his place all his expense). For I am from the other side of the earth. He did mention the same thing (when i was there the first time we dated and first met) but then came back to me telling me that we need to get to know more and that’s when he requested me to go to his place/country instead. Things were okay despite some misunderstandings/miscommunications but we’ve settled things out our way from our differences (culture and traditions). But after that trip and I came home, I realized i need to ask him about our status (what’s next). He didn’t reply… Until the next day saying… He doesn’t think that dating and having a relationship with someone from another country is something that he’ll be able to continue (for the 3rd time). He said he likes me but he’s not ready to take that step and that he realized his personality is not set up to that as it’s his very first time to date someone from another country. And it’s very expensive to date one from afar. And that he’s more cautious now after going through a divorce and that he’d wanted to get to know someone slower and that i had different expectations for him… That being said, it truly hurts but I did understand… Part of me really wanted to hold on so i tried but i believe I can’t force him nor I can’t force myself to him if he’d made up his mind already. And i respected that. We agreed to be still friends. But it’s totally different now. I have my pride and self-respect. So from then on, i went NC with him after trying to message him if we could work things out. The good thing is he replied after telling him that in chat but then again he said he has moved on and wish me well. So that was it, I stopped. Then went NC again. I don’t go online that much in Viber and just from time to time if i got messages from friends (but none from him which i hoped for). After few days not going online and then i went online, I checked on him and was online still and he was always online ever until that next time I realized his status was not visible as online. None that i could see. So I thought he blocked me… 🙁 I never tried to figure it out though if he really blocked me or he just turned off his online status as visible. I just assumed he blocked me. I’m curious what went wrong? I never bothered him with messages for him to get annoyed and do that. What do you think went wrong? Is he mad at me? Will there be any chance for us to get back on each other? Please advise. Thank you

Hi Wanderlust,

We’re not sure if he blocked you, so don’t over think.. but how active are you in improving yourself and in posting?

Maya

November 1, 2017 at 5:55 am

No I never actually directly talked about it.. but I once ( about 1.5-2 months ago) sent him something and didn’t realize I was blocked.. then a few days later I sent him asking if he’s okay.. then he replied blah blah blah and asked why did I think he wasn’t okay.. I said I texted you but you didn’t reply.. he said did you get the double check mark? ( which means he received the text ) I said I dont remember.. he said I never received your text.. I subtly said then you did something that made it not come through and hinted that he blocked me and he said nooooo why would I ever do that with crying emojis
Anyways.. we’ve had so much flirting and positive interactions after that..
and I forgot to say that it’s midterm weeks.. he could be studying and is afraid I would distract him? quite sometimes before the block he told me that he has to study.. so yah…
should I continue the no contact even if I was unblocked and he texted me? Or should I sound casual about it and be like yeah it was a rough 2 weeks studying hard..

Hi Maya,

If you’re unblocked have a serious but calm talk about it.. And then observe of he will change..

If that’s your last resort after waiting tp be unblocked, then it’s either you try it, wait further or move on

Hi Amor,
No, we’re not anymore. I read that article too, but the problem is that we don’t have mutual friends either so I pretty much just have facebook and we’re not friends there. I did make my profile public though. What would be the game plan in this case after no contact in terms of reaching?

My ex has a history of blocking me when he’s studying for college or something for a day or less then unblocking me.. this time though.. it’s been 5 days.. but the thing is he blocked me after I texted him freaking out about something and needed support.. he didn’t answer though he was online and blocked me about 12 hours later…he only blocked me on WhatsApp on his main number.. he didn’t block me on his second number.. do you think it’s best to complete a 30 days no contact and contact him on his second number? And what do I do if he unblocks me soon.. should I continue my no contact? And if he apologized for not answering what should I say?

Quiz

October 27, 2017 at 9:41 am

Hi. I am in situation “never want to talk again”. He blocked me on phone and whatsapp. He doesn’t have fb.
He always told me he wasn’t interested in having me as his girl but went to bed with me every weekend for almost 2 years plus saying he cared about me and that he felt happy with me but still not wanting a relationship. I told hin way before I loved him and he kept fuc..ing and then asking to go somewhere together just for stooding me up at last minute or leaving me waiting and no show up.. for 2 years. So he screwed up big time with me overtime because he was very mixed with me : happy/but no ..care/but don’t care etc etc.
So one day I lost it and gave him a little slap (I swear very tiny) then I cried desperately and after 2 yrs giving him everything and he screwing up with my mind..I am the one ended up BLOCKED!! He was the one deserving that for playing with me And also I am not a chaser at all. I have a full happy life (or at least I act as if, most of the time). I keep hang of myself. I am mature 99percent of the time. Stated that he is the “wrong” one and instead of choosing to mature he just keeps trying humiliating me with this blocks. No friends in common. I am not going to go at his place ever. No letters. No drama . I am not a drama girl. Now it has been 2 months. So he really wants to dive and die in his shit.. as the slap is really nothing as it came suddenly and from years of shit treatment . For real he doesn’t know that he treated me shit??! And if he knows ..why he doesn’t make it better since he said he was happy when he was spending time with me??! This just doesn’t make sense. I am starting thinking he is really mentally ill..

Hi Quiz,

Well, he did mention he didn’t want to be in a relationship with you but he slept with you and you allowed it even if you know he doesn’t want a relationship.. So, you agreed being friends with benefits..

Hi,

I reached out to you a month ago, about my exboyfriend keep watching all Snapchats everyday gor months but not reaching out..

Well it was his birthday so I congratulate him, he answered but didn’t initiate any conversation or ask questions about me.
He has been and still is watching all of what I am doing.

It annoys me a little since I don’t understand what his thoughts are behind this.. could it be that he’s indifferent and it’s easy to watch for him everyday.

Even though I can’t be THAT interesting, but I don’t know why you would keep looking so much but not keep conversation when you get the chance.

I’ve been looking for answers, but I see that most guys say he’s prob. Missing you, maybe wants to get back, or hating you (negative feelings) and then there’s some that say it’s nothing or they could be 1000% over you. But would you be looking at someone daily when you’re that much over them and careless about their lives?

I’m Sorry, but I sort of need a second opinion..

Yes and no.. He may be missing you but it doesn’t mean he wants to get back together because it’s human nature to miss what we used to have

Not an ex, but he said he needed a little space for a bit because work was very overwhelming and stressing him out a lot and he was going through personal stuff (this was something he mentioned early on). I said okay, but then got anxious and asked him where we stood a day later- did he want to see each other when things calmed down or cut ties? He didn’t reply and I thought this meant he didn’t want to continue talking, so I got upset and angry and sent him a text a few days later saying how he had hurt me, led me on and that I’m glad he at least showed me what I don’t deserve. I got upset and unfollowed him on instagram and deleted him from my followers. He blocked me from snapchat after I sent that text. I felt guilty a week later and tried to apologize via instagram messanger, and re followed him, but he didn’t read the message even though he let me follow him on instagram, so out of desperation I had a friend send him that apology on my behalf from her account another week later. He blocked both of us off of instagram. I feel dumb because I let my emotions take over me and I really miss him. He asked for space late September, I last reached out to him on insta last Tuesday. I don’t know what to do because all I have now is facebook, but we’re not even friends on there. Please help.

Hello, I just completed my NC. My first text went out I thought he messaged me back right away. I left it as I’m just going into the gym talk to you later. Then nothing from him. He just would like every single picture I would post with in seconds. Then out of nowhere without talking since the first couple messages he blocked me. Where did I go wrong ?

Sofie

Hi Amor
First of I loved this article, it helped making a little sense of the situation.

I met this guy on tinder, and I must say he was exactly the man I’m looking for as a future husband.
He was really into me, his first message was “we would look perfect together” and I had to agree.
He said things like I want to marry you, and our babies would look perfect and things like that.
Even though it’s a bit too much, I really fell for it.
But then he started to annoy me a bit, I felt like he was pushing me to do things I wasn’t ready for, I told him no or it’s too soon or too much for me.

So I began to care less, and sometimes it took me hours before I replied, and he replied within 2 min every time, and with a lot of “love” emojis, called me babe in every text. (I never did any of that)

I was quite cold and told him that it was too much for me because o didn’t know good enough.

He suggested that we should FaceTime, I was really tired and said no without giving him a reason, he kept on suggesting that we could do it the next day, but I kept on rejecting (mostly because I was insecure about not being perfect enough)

So at the end he said that if I didn’t even have 5 min to FaceTime with him then he would use his time on someone else and not talk to me anymore.

And one minute later he had blocked me on instagram, and deleted me on tinder, and i think on the phone as well. (So a full blocking, on the medias that we had contact)
I panicked when I got that last text, and texted him that I felt like “it was his way or no way at all”, and I would like to get to know him, if he could only let me explain myself.

But maybe he already blocked me at point.

He live in the states and I live in Europe, he is coming to my city next month. And he expressed that he wanted me to come and visit him afterwards.

This all happend two days ago, and I feel like I lost my chance on the only guy I have ever seen full potential in, he really lived up to all my criterias for a man (and that have never happened before)

So I’m kind of desperate in getting him back.

Is there anything I can do, or any hope for him to come back?

I found him on Facebook, but have not texted him or anything, he also gave me his Snapchat but I never added him.

The best regards
Sofie

Hi, my ex and I were inseparable for 7 months. We had a bad breakup, I begged for him back. He put me on full block from everything. NC for 30 days is not hard to do if I can’t even contact him, which is what I’m wondering. After 30 day NC if I’m still blocked, how do I reach out to him? We do not have mutual friends as he hasn’t lived in our city very long and my friends are girls that didn’t hang out around him. All social media has been blocked, everything. After 30 days nc and if I’m still blocked all I can do is wait and hope?

Hey Amour!

It’s been 10 months after my break up. I change my life completely and I’m in a much better place. I taken all the steps to moving on with my life and not looking back after me and my gotten in a huge arguement via text( my first attempt at no contact/ and text him on his birthday. He really was on some dumb shit and decided once and for all to block him out. So, I blocked his number, delete all our pictures together from my devices and threw away all things that was his. I’m not going to lie, I really going through a depression and almost crying everyday it especially I found he was speaking to another girl. Some how Igot through the storm and I’m in a much better place.

Here’s my problem, after having me on a full block for 10 months , he unblocks me two days ago. At first I didnt think to over- analyzed it, until I wrote a status saying ” you could’ve kept me block and he blocks me again. Then, he unblocks me yesterday and I wrote a status saying I made my peace with everything that happen an, now he throwing subtles message at me…. What does this mean and how to deal with it because to honest it really starting to get to me…. Mind you, I didn’t do anything to him… I was just minding my business lol

Sotrue90

October 9, 2017 at 3:58 am

I figure, but why would he write stuble posts about me like I did something to him( Again I was minding my business and trying to move on) ? Why would he want to know what am doing… especially if he broke up with me and not the other way around. A very small part of me want to speak to him, but the way I look at it if he want to talk he should be the one to initiate contact. I mean I went this long without contacting him, a like I said I wanted to move on and not look back. It’s it safe to say he miss me lol?

SN: Not only he unblock me, but he unblock all our mutual friends. He even send friend requests to some them.
