Hi, recently my ex broke up with me. It was completely out of the blue and unexpected. We were fine, he said he loved me and I made him happy every day, but then he sent me a text saying how the distance (he moved away a few months ago) was making him unhappy, and if I want him to be happy I should let him go, then blocked me from all forms of social media and my number. I love him and want him back. What should I do?

I know he really did not get any benefits because we were far, he is the one who gave us the tittle, he moved them when he wanted to,and they always moved forwards.but for me, the pics were really personal, he is the first person I ever send some to, and I always told him he could keep his options open and I always told him how I felt for him,and I always told him that if he didn’t see a future with me to let me know,so I wouldn’t be hurt as much. He always told me he was happy with me,sometimes he would say some women were hitting on him,but he was with me, and didn’t care to really notice them.
He said he would let me know if anything changed tho.
We talked a lot, he always kept me updated on his schedules and always told me what he was doing without me asking,he is a really serious person who doesn’t trust anyone with his life, and I know so many of his very personal life stories,he trusted me with them,I honestly haven’t even opened up to him as much as he did.
3 days before the news of his gf he had his new 2 month schedule but he didn’t send it which was wierd,but I didn’t say anything.
I always let him be in control of us, and he was clear with many things…I thought we were moving forward, that he had been wanting to move forward with me,or why would he have done those things he did, like tell me to tell our excoworkers we were together and agree to meet my family, I know he is teriffied of meeting parents.and he won’t agree on something unless he is sure.
He is the type of guy who avoid problems, there was this time I suspected he still had feeling for his ex and vise versa, because i called and she picked up,asked who i was and i said my name,i herd her make an ugly noise and hung up on me.
he said no he didnt and they only interact for the kids.I somewhat pushed him to much and he said he liked me because I was fun, sweet, smart, attentive and always made him feel better in many ways , but that if I didn’t stop that nonsense and insecurity he would leave me. It took me a while to calm down but I did,she and I don’t talk but he gave me her # and now she doesn’t mind when I talk or face time him, she honestly thinks we are dating and we see each other on a daily basis,we tried to correct her,but she says I make him happy and that I’m his partner,even if we don’t admit it.
Why would he tell me I mean a lot to him and he sees me in his future when its not true?
I didn’t have the guts to ask him how long he had been talking to this girl, but he told me that she is his fg but will keep it quite.
Why would he say thing that are not true….I’m so sorry,but I’m so confused and hurt, and I really want him to see me the way I see him.
I also don’t understand the fact that he didn’t even think about what I send him,he just blocked me.

Ok, let’s say he didn’t play you.. But it’s sure that he’s really not serious with you at the end.. Either because of the distance or morely likely because you allowed it to be like that.. You knew from the start that it was an open relationship. And you said he always knew what you felt but then he did this.. His actions don’t add up with his words.. If he really was serious, he shouldn’t have fooled you

Hey
Im so sorry.. my language is not good. I and my boyfriend(ex) were classmates and im his one and only bestfriend..we know each other since the day we met(2012)..he broke up with me last year(2015 October). 7 (march) months ago he bloked me on fb(not in WhatsApp).. ive started nc rule since the day he blocked me. 2(july) months ago i broke the rule and i text him that i can’t tolerate this pain anymore(through WhatsApp). Surprisingly he replied me.. he told me that he won’t hurt me again and he want to see me live happily..he still loves me but our relation was no more.. we can still be friends.. after this,we used to talk everyday like friends.. but one day i tell him that i cant miss him more and i love him alot.. he tell that his situation is also the same.. but he said our marriage is not going to happen.. because in our country castes and religions are played very important role in our life..he has alot of problems in his family.. last friday we had a fight. And he told me that ‘i have no relation with you’. and he blocked me on WhatsApp..im very sad now..i decided to start the nc rule.. but it failed..i sent many texts to him.. he replied ‘its over dont disturb me’ i know all the situations of his very well and i believed that he is the best guy ive ever seen in my life.. so i dont want to lose him again.. i want him back in my life forever.. please help me.. i need him.. please helo me..

Here is some more important things that I didn’t mention,
*1st. our first dates*,
First we went out for a walk,we talked about each other and since when we liked each other, he told me he had a crush on me for two months befor he started going for me,because he wasn’t sure if he could get me, and we had a great time, but we didn’t even hold hands, i also kept distance.(honestly I wanted to kiss him so bad,luckily I didn’t)
2nd time we walked again,we started talking,I made the first move and held his hand, then he sat in a bench and pulled me twords him, and sat me on his lap,we talked some more and then we kissed,it was breathtaking,we both lost our breaths,and he told me it was amazing,he also told me that passion was necessary for his relationship to work. then we got up and walked some more,he saw some guys watching me,so he protectively pulled me towards him & kissed me again, but with more passion, it all got passionate, and his hands were on me, later he lifted me up, like a recently married couple do and at the end I felt like the luckiest person in the world.
3rd date we had a great time, held hands and kissed a lot, but then when we were in his car cuddling this one moment came were he took “it” out, I was shocked, first because it was to soon and second because I realized how easy he got sex, I told him no and he put it away.
4th date, we went to the movies, and we cuddle and kissed,and he got touchy again, but then his hands went down too much for my liking and I stopped him, that’s when I told him that I was not that type, I liked him,but I only get intimate once I’m sure I love that person, he said it was fine and that he could wait.
Another important thing,
Is that during all this time I’ve done everything he says and asked for, besides sex. Sometimes I did complain but at the end he always got what he asked for, he also said that the only problem he had with me was that my texts are too long and descriptive,second and last thing I didn’t please him with.
Another thing is that we started sending nudes once I told him I was hoh for him and that I loved him,he was happy when I told him that, he had such a big smile, some days later he started sending me nudes and asked me for some.
The final important thing is that I have only been with one guy and it lasted more than six years, I met this man for the first time two years later ,all the time we worked together I had admirers at work and out of work and I always rejected them, he would see this happen and always laughed about how every single guy failed, just like some of the other coworkers did.
When we started he would ask about the guys who hit on me,he ended up finding out there were more admirers then he knew of, and got upset,he also asked why I rejected them, and I told him that it was because I already liked someone. And I can’t date someone unless I like them. I always made my feeling clear to him.
Honestly now I feel that I did mess everything up, is it my fault he is with another person? And is it my fault he blocked me so fast?
Did I make him wait to much?
I didn’t tell him this but I was planning on finally “being” with him in two weeks from now after this party we agreed to go to together, I even bought some stuff to wear for him,
but now we are not going together, during the last talk we had, I told him it would be awkward to go together with him having a gf and I would instead go with someone else.

BTW.. I didn’t tell him about my feeling in the start because he had recently gotten out of a serious relationship that lasted 10 years, and he got cheated on.
when we started being friends it had already been a year and 3 months, and by then he looked fine.
I might as well say, he has kids from that relationship, and they know about me,but he never agreed that I should meet in person.
He said it was still too soon.
That’s why I don’t know if I’m his back fall.

Hi amor, last night I asked for your help.I’m not so sure if it went trough though, so here i go again, but I’m going to keep it short
I am almost 23 and he is almost 29
We worked together for 11 months and during that time he had affairs with some coworkers, he made sure to keep it sort and descrete.
On the 9 month of working together he found out I liked him and for the whole month he insisted and made it obvious he was flirting with me. At the end I accept and it was perfect, we were good friends,and he was always honest and straight forward to me,when I felt comfortable with him, I told him if we could start dating but he always declined,telling me to take it slow, so I did, he told me not to tell anyone about us untill he was sure and I agreed.
Then I was transferred and we couldn’t see each other.
We focused on our jobs and we became fwb.we kept our relationship with messenger, texts facetime, and video calls,we never did anthing sexual though.for five months we stayed like this, sometimes we lost contact for a week or two, once he did vanish for a whole month but he said it was because he had to many hours he had to cover and he was to busy so I let it go.we have never had sex and we haven’t had really been personally together, 3months ago though we strated sending videos and pics,and they did get really personal.I could say I know his body to well now and vise versa.2 months ago some excoworkers asked about him,I told them I stayed in touch with him once in a while,and then I told him, he told me to let them know we were together, I was glad about that but I didn’t tell them.
Every 2 months I always ask him if his feeling for me have changed or if he is interested in anyone else he always said he is to busy to look for anyone and that he was happy with me.
But last week I changed everything, I told him I didn’t want him to look for anyone cuz now I was not planning on sharing or letting him go I told him I wanted to be with him, he sounded happy and agreed he told me I was the only one.
He even agreed to meet my family.
But 2 days ago he send me a text saying he had a gf we ended up talking and he told me he still wanted to have me as his fwb, I reminded him that all this time I’ve been loyal patient and understanding and then I told him I didn’t want to know of him again and to unfriend me in fb.
All night I cried and I thought about it,at last I asked him if we could talk.he called me in the morning and I asked him why he didn’t tell me bout her and why he said I was the only one last time,he said he didn’t know sorry and he wasn’t sure.
I asked him why he gave her the gf tittle and not me, and he said that a gf was temporary position and that I meant more than that to him,he said he wanted me in his future . he also said she was with him at work and that she was there for him,i understood what he ment then.He finally calmed me down and apologize and insisted for me to stay.
At the end I agreed.
But all day I thought about this and in the afternoon I send I’m a long text saying I agreed to him being with her for a month but from now on he had to do a list of more than 20 things and he had to make it official with me and in fb he had to make our relationship known. And if he didn’t do it to let me know so we could stop waisting time.
When he read this,he blocked me, now I don’t know what to think was I his back fall,did I pressure him, did he just played me, is he confused,was he always lying,will he come back,or was he just playing me all this time, I do know I love him so does he, but know I don’t know if he thought I was worthy for him.

Hi,
after 1.5 years of dating, my boyfriend broke up with me a month ago. At the time I begged him to stay with me but then once he said no, I accepted it and we parted ways. I immediately did no contact for 31 days where he didn’t try to reach out to me. On day 31 I texted him a brief good memory. He didn’t respond and the next day I found I was blocked on facebook. why did he do this and what should I do?

September 28, 2016 at 8:16 pm
Hi Amor,
I texted him a brief memory of a restaurant that we both used to love.
I have been improving during NC, taking classes, meditating, etc.
I haven’t been posting anything on facebook really, and nothing about moving on. The block came just after I sent the text, but I have no idea why.
EBR Team Member: Amor
September 30, 2016 at 4:07 pm
Hmm.. I think that’s why. He doesn’t know that you are improving or he doesn’t have the thought that you might have moved on because you were not active in social media.. SO, maybe he took the text as your attempt to make him remember and to try to get him back

Hi Liza,

September 27, 2016 at 5:46 am
Hi amor,
I have known this man for quite a while. I am almost 23 and he is almost 29.
I liked him right away. But he had recently gotten out of an almost 10 year relationship. That is why I didn’t try to get his attention. he did have some affairs with some coworkers but he always made sure to keep it private. And for at the most 2 months.
We worked together for almost a year before he found out I liked him,
he tried to get my attention for a whole month making it obvious to everyone.
At the end I did accept. His breakup had already been 1 year 3 months ago.he was doing fine by then.
Everything was great for the first month and we keep our relationship as friends but then one day I asked him to take the next step.he always declined saying that he needed time. He also told me to keep it between us two, and I didn’t mind.he was always honest with me and didn’t make up excuses, it was perfect.
Then I was transfered to a new location and a week later he also got transferred to a further location..we ended up far,same state,him north,me south so we both focused on our jobs, and we didn’t go on dates anymore,we kept talking and we ended up with the friends with benefit tittle, this has been going on for 5 months now.
We haven’t had intimacy, becouse all our contact has been based on calls, txts, and facetime, but 2 months ago we started sharing very personal pictures and videos, enough to say he knows me more than anyone. One month ago some of our old coworkers got in touch with me,and asked about him,i did let them know that we stayed in touch and i told him, he told me to let them now we were toghether, i was extreamly glad, but i didn’t mind telling them.
We both are really busy people and sometimes we don’t talk for two weeks, only once did he disappear for a month, he said he had been doing way too many over times and that he had been too busy all month.
Once every two months I ask him if he has found someone who he might be interested in or if his feeling for me have changed.
he always says he is to busy to look for other people and that he is happy with me.
Last week though, I changed everything, I told him that I didn’t want him to look for anyone else and that now I was not planning on sharing him or letting him go, because I wanted to be serious with him,he did sound happy about it,
He confirm that I was the only one and that if I wish for us to be more serious, he wouldn’t mind.
He even agreed to go to a family dinner with my family to meet them and he agreed that we would now be partners.
But 2 days ago he randomly texted me,
Saying he had a girlfriend now,
I cried and send him good wishes and a good bye text, he called me and apologized, he explained he met her at work,and said that he wants to be with her because she is at his reach, but he still wanted to be with me,I yelled at him specially because he asked me to stay as his fwb while he dated this woman,
I reminded him about our last conversation, and reminding him how all this time I have been loyal,understanding and patient, I then told him that I am not going to let him treat me that way, I told him to think about what he had done and to unfriend me in Facebook because I didn’t wanted to know about him ever again.he didn’t say anything after that.
All night I cried and really thought about it, at last early morning I told him I was calm and that I needed to ask him some questions, he agreed and we talked again, this time I started first,I asked him why he didn’t tell me about her befor and why did he say i was the only one last time. he said sorry,that he didn’t know why he didn’t tell me, and that he wasn’t sure.
Then I asked him why was she better than me or what had she done so he could call her his gf and not me, he told me he wanted to be with her temporarily maybe 2,or 3 months , he wasn’t sure, and that temporarily is what a gf ment to him, but that he saw me as a long term and I was much more to him, he calmed me down, and apologiezed again, at the end I agreed to stay and I let him stay with her for a month.
But then in the afeternoon I decided to send him a long described text saying that I would let him date her for a month but i basically wanted to be in an official relationship and that he had to make it public in fb, I gave him a list of more then 20 things I expected him to do from now on simple regular thing that a man normally does for his woman, and I told him that if he didn’t like a few to let me know,and I might agree with him on something else,but that if he decided to not do them to let me know so I don’t waist my time on him and if he agreed,we would be fine.
Then he read it,but once he was done, he blocked me from fb and messenger.
This happened yesterday late afternoon, and i havent tried to get in touch with him,I know I love him.
But I’m so confused and hurt
Specially because of the way he blocked me.
I don’t know if he his uncertain about me, or if I’m his back fall, or if he has not really been honest to me all this time and he played me, or if this girl might really be special to him,or he might not really be into me, I have so much running through my head,but I do know I do want him with me,I know I didn’t mess up, I tried to fix it, I might have pressured him, but I don’t understand why he blocked me.
And I don’t know if he might want to be with me or if he is gone forever

My ex and I were together for 2 years he has made a group of new friends and went really off and weird with me so we broke up for a fee months. We got back together and now broke up with me again. He says he didnt want to but has to. He seems like he worries about the future as he said he gets very anxious around me. We ended on good terms and we were both very sad we had to break up and both agreed how perfect we were for eachother however for the first 2 days I wanted to help him with other options but by day 3 he was very rude and blocked me on social media and whats app. I deleted him off social media first as he asked me to. I confronted him about whats app and he unblocked me and asked me to not message him. What is wrong with him? And what should I do? Have I lost him?

We broke up last week. He says he gets really anxious because he cant give his all. And it is not fair on me so he has to let go not because he wants to. We both have very busy schedules due to work and general lifestyles.

Hello,
I was here 7 months ago and I actually got him back by just living life and reading the book here. Then a day ago he ended it again stating again he couldn’t be in a relationship and that he’s sorry to put me through this but we will find happiness one day. I told him I know I couldn’t change his mind and that he knows my feelings for him and then without a word I was blocked on everything I could think of…. he said this is the last time he would do this to me and he deleted all our photos from social media which makes me feel he’s really done with me. Could you please help? Any hope or should I just go on and live my life….

September 21, 2016 at 7:59 pm
So I was dating this guy for about a year & a half on & off again. He’s 24 & I’m 21. Of course as usual I thought he was the one & we always spoke about out future plans & being married with a family some day. Lastest news…..he actually did come through & we hung out recently. The first time he came to visit me & by the end of the date he once again asks to be with me, & I accepted. I informed him that I want to do things the old fashioned way & get rid of all social media. He said that he was willing to do that. Just to back track for a moment, the last time him & I tried this, he made another Facebook account which he gave me all his password info but I never thought to even check it because I never wanted it. I found out that he never got rid of his old page but simply deactivated it & once again after an argument he does his disappearing act & blocks me off the original page so I wouldn’t find out that he never got rid of it but of course like most women we always do. Ok so now to fast forward, the following weekend I went out to go see him. Now remind you, he lives with his mom & 3 sisters but his mom wasn’t there for the weekend. Once again, things went great from what I thought. When I got back, he sent me a text saying that I left my bra in his mom’s room. I guess his mom has been kind of upset for the past few days about it & has been saying that things hinting at the fact that she is going to kick him out soon. To be honest I couldn’t blame her if she did because all he does is sit around, outside of going to school. Anyway, last week the calls & text have been short & not as frequent. He explained that a lot has been going on & he’s just been walking on eggshells with his mom because of what happened. Which I think is a punk move on his part. Then, when I asked him about what he’s going to do as far as working, he continues to say he just wants to focus on school, which definitely confirmed my decision on not to move in with him when he asked me in the beginning of us trying to work things out again. So anyway, I extended the offer for him to meet my mom for the first time & have dinner which he said would be fine but he has to ask his mom first. Now usually when he comes in town, he usually hitches a ride with his mom, which is now starting to become a turn off to me because when I see him, I usually take the train (2 hour ride). I let it go & said ok. So a week goes by & we talked very little here & there which is not like us. So I continue to wait patiently but before I know it, a week has gone by & still no substantial conversation has been had. Therefore, I decide to call him basically stating everything that I am staring in this letter about moving out, not working, the issues in the relationship & so forth. The conversation basically ends with me asking where do we stand. I told him that I would give him the weekend to think things through but I know how he can linger & avoid conflict at all cost so I end the conversation simply asking, “Are we friends, going our separate ways or going to work it out?” And of course the phone dies. Attempt to call on Sunday but no answer or call back. I don’t know if he’s done or this is that “break” period that always happens but I haven’t attempted anymore since that day. And i have done no contact with him before at least 2 or 3 times. I love him deeply but there are many childish tendencies he has. Is this something that you think only time will heal & a good chance of us getting together with maturity? Or this is a lost cause & should just be forgotten? I’ve never had a bond with someone like I have with him & he professes the same thing which I do believe he means. I just love him so much & I know it sounds stupid to still want him but I do. It’s day 3 & I still haven’t heard anything from him & when I call he did not answer & since his phone is off & no longer works at all (so he claims, which I know is not true). I feel as if it’s super childish to have to call him on the house phone . What’s next? A serious cry out for help

Hi,
Here is the Situation, I just made a total career change and it is starting slow so all the fun things we used to do are a little bit more limited until I build my company so I am not able to do as many crazy things that we were doing in the past until business picks up. My gf of 4 months wanted to go over to her sisters instead of coming to see me because her sister was having a hard time with some things. Instead of going out to the bars with me she went behind my back and took her sister out to the bars to show her a good time and one of my friends ran into her at the bars and she totally ignored them and left the bar immediately. She had been texting me most of the night but did not tell me where see was or what she was doing.(I do trust her though) She called me at 2am wasted and unfortunately I sparked a huge argument because I felt lied to about the situation. I was not worried she was cheating on me but the fact she just couldn’t tell me. Needless to say I get to see her about 2 times a week and when she went to the bars without me after we had made plans to do which I got a little angry. We let emotions take over and texted back and forth all day draining each other! She called and told me she cant do this anymore because she was drained and annoyed with all the texting and bickering over something in her mind that is petty! I figured out she has blocked me from all social media outlets including her phone. I’m under the impression she either needs some time to think about things or just doesn’t want to talk to me ever again. I’m not going to try and contact her anymore but I’m torn if this will ever work itself out and she just needs time to calm down and relax since it was not a cheating situation or do I just cut all ties and not worry about it??? I’m focusing more time on me but ultimately I do love the girl

I think you just need time for the situation to cool off

I’ve only been on FB since May 2014. I had an intense breakup (worst scenario possible) in 2013. I haven’t tried to communicate with this ex since the end of 2014. The last time he contacted me was in June 2014 through text messages. I sent him few messages at the end of 2014 without getting an answer. I know he has been in few relationships since. I’ve never sent him a friend request on FB. In May 2016 (few months earlier), I realized that this ex blocked me on FB (because let’s face it, I looked at his profile few times a week)! We were not even friends on FB. I wonder why? (Remember : the breakup was scary. It was really bad. I don’t even want to get into the details). As for today, I am still blocked which make it impossible to see his profile. What could be the reason behind that? It’s really sad for me to admit that I’d love to see him again. We met in September 2012, and I get a little bit nostalgic around this time of the year. Yesterday, I sent him a short text message yesterday at 8:30, something like : “Hello X. I was thinking about you. I wonder how’s life going”. No answer. I don’t even know if he also blocked me from his contacts.

English is not my mother tongue. My message was a little bit confusing. I know it’s impossible for FB users to identify the people who look at their profile. I was actually wondering why he blocked me if we’ve never been friends on FB? I have never tried to reach him via FB, so why would he feel the need to block me? Also, I feel it’s important to mention that I moved on. Completing a master degree, meeting interesting people along the way, travelling, buying a condo, etc. But it doesn’t mean I have forgotten about him.

HI Sab,
I don’t think he blocked you because you were checking your profile, because there’s no way he would know that, unless you were liking his posts.. I think you should move on.

My Ex blocked me from his phone. He gets my texts but not my calls. he will respond to a text and he calls me almost every day. he is seeing someone he says isn’t important, and he blocks me so she doesn’t get my number. Communication is totally on his terms. he’ll text me goodnight at 2am. Or text at 4am just to respond to something I’ve said at 10pm the previous day. He says he wants to be cool and he doesn’t want to lose me. And he wants me to find my Prince Charming. I am the one who broke up with him. I’m going to start no contact because really I don’t know if I want him back.

Hi Melissa,
he wants to be cool by having two girls at the same time? How long were you together? When and why did you broke up?

That’s good. Give him space.. Try out what’s advised above. He needs his time and space right now. Use this time to improve yourself and be active in social media so, that he can see that you’re not chasing anymore.

Hi Rasu,
I think you know the solution to this, it’s being independent. Whatever your parents say, what matters more is your decision. He got fed up.. He was willing to stick it out for you, but you kept telling him that you’re parents are forcing you to break up with and it sounded like you’re not really fighting for him, so why would he fight for you?
I don’t have a clue on how hard it is to contradict your parents but I have to be honest. No matter how much you beg him back, if you’re not wiling to just stay with him and say no to your parents then it’s not going to work.

Hi Amor,
We have been fighting a lot lately. He blocked my phone number and texted me saying “I’m done”. I freaked out, and messaged him on Facebook. He was reading my messages but not responding. I became angry and said “If you’re really done then you might as well block me on Facebook too!” So, he did. We don’t have a lot of mutual friends because we live in different cities. Worst case scenario-he doesn’t unblock me in a month. Should I email him at that point?

What if she has belongings at his house that she would like back? He offered to give them back right after he blocked her, but she said she wouldn’t be in his city for awhile and he replied “that’s fine, your stuff is good where it’s at-no worries”. Should age wait until after NC? This is her lady question. Thank you! π

if she really need the stuff, it’s ok to get it during nc, as long as she only talks to him about that stuff.

Hi Amor. They were together 2+ years. This is their second “actual breakup”. They’ve been broken up for a week.

If he doesnt unblock or cooled down for another week, start no contact rule for 30 days, if she’s still blocked, extend to 45 days.. if she’s still blocked then she can email..but she has to be productive during nc.. she cant just wait for him to unblock her and if he just unblocks her during nc, she shouldbt break it unless he says he wants her back..but if it’s jusy a how are you text, she has to ignore it.
and dont beg in the email.. honestly, if he didnt unblock her or talked to her for that long, that’s understood that he chose to stick with his decision of breaking up with her.. So, the email would only either be a closure or a friendly email.. He has to think that she has moved on

Ps- this is my friends situation, not mine. She doesn’t have a smart phone so I told her I’d post her situation on this website and get her some input. π

Hi Amanda,
when was their fight and when did he block her? How long were they together? I think she should just let him cool off.

Things ended between a really good man and I. When he approached me almost 2 months ago, we clicked instantly. I really liked the connection we had. It was easy and organic.
However, I quickly came to find out that he had ended a relationship of 2 or 3 years just 5 months ago. I knew deep down he wasn’t over her and attempted to step back from the situation. We both agreed.
But then we just kept talking to each other.. still holding on and it started making me feel resentful.
And finally, yesterday morning he blocked me from social media.
I texted him wanting to let him know that I was okay with it, but I wanted to understand his reasons. We ended up both agreeing that it wasn’t the right time. He ended up telling me that he wasn’t talking to her or anything, but that I had been right in saying he hadn’t gotten over her and it wasn’t fair to me.
He said he blocked me moreso for him than because of me so that he wouldn’t be able to contact me even if he wanted to. I told him that I understood and I wished him the best. I wanted us to leave on good terms because if we ever met up in the future, I wanted it to be nice and carefree. Said my goodbyes and in return he replied that he loves our connection.. that it was and still is amazing. He told me i was amazing and that i deserved more than what he was dealing me. He told me not to worry because he would see me again eventually, wished me the best, sent me a kiss and that was that
This. Sucks.
But do you think that there can be a possibility for us to reconnect later on? Thoughts?
Thank you in advance

Hi Maria,
Yes, I think there is still a chance.. Let him heal while you improve yourself.

So me and my ex broke up 2 months ago. It has been chaos ever since. He is alwys angry msging me claiming that i have slept with this guy and that. He has a long list of guys that he has made up in his mind that i have slept with. I have tried explaining to him countless times but he doesnt seem to be working. I even read the article that states if i have been falsely accused of cheating.
I have tried everything, i followed that article and not spoken to him for more than a week but i alwys ended up replying to him because of his angry msgs daily.
I got really fedup and i knew where he was working ysterday, i showed up and he wsnt pleased. We had a huge fight, with him walking away and me following him and him throwing his phone and asking me to leave but i didnt. I begged him to make it work with me but he kept refusing and saying he hasnt had feelings for me in a long time even when we were together. It was very hurtful, it ended up with him getting into his car and driving away.
I went home all numb and he continued angry msging me in the middle of the night, he sent me a video of him cutting up our picture together, That really HURT !
He is really angry at me and no matter what i do, he just keeps getting angry at me. He seems so adamant on never getting back together, he is at a point where he hates me ! He has been extremely angry at me for 2 months straight and after last night it got way worst ! Again he deleted my number in front of my face and he has blocked me everywhere including whatsapp now.
What should i do ? Please advice.

Hi Rachel,
stop feeding the fire Rachel.. I know you’ll keep doing what you want to do and I understand that and I also think that’s the only way that can help you realize that the more you answer, the more you show up, the more you beg, the more it will make him angry or take advantage of that power by continuing to be angry at you.
You basically keep on reacting to him and it’s making him feel good. Take the high road. Ignore and improve yourself. Learn to live life that he’s the only who’s angry.
You’ve explained. That’s enough. Don’t lower your value by continuing to chase him.
Stop reacting to him.. It’s like you keep riding the worst ride in the carnival and expecting it to make you feel better the next time you ride it.
