How about if we use this thread to count the NC days, all of us? Each one would mention how long he/she's been maintaining the NC period and how he/she feels with time.
Maybe in some way this can help us all (including me)?
This is my first NC day.. Afternoon here, so far didn't even touch my phone. I don't know how I feel, but I'm not that miserable, I have a goal and thinking about it, NOT HER!
so after a week full of set backs and crying i am starting my official no contact again today... so here it is day one!! its funny how it all comes back again so quickly it almost feels like its still so fresh. just like a scab which i cant stop picking even though it hurts... god i hope i can do this.
I'm on day 16 now.. feels really great most of the time.. but I just got a great memory of us back in the day and it hurts I'll never be able to do that again..
As someone said, when I had a bad day, I would ring my ex up and ask her to stay at mine that night and she made everything better. Now I have to get through it on my own.
But there's sooo many advantages of being separated too. I don't have to phone her every night any more when I don't want to or wait for her to text back.. I get to spend all my own money on ME!
I feel happier than I have for a long, long time as we were messing each other about for the past 6 months.. it's good to be free to do what I want now.

My older brother and his gf just moved in with my mom and me not too long ago... all they do is argue, the same can be said of a couple of my best friends, they're always fighting with their girl. now my ex and i rarely fought... but its nice that the possibility of someone yelling at me over nothing is extremely thin.
and what you say is so true, there are loads of benefits to being single, more time to do better in school, time to work out, time to do whatever you like to do in your down time. personally, i enjoy my own company, and im so glad i dont feel the need to constantly be with someone. cheers to all the singles out there! what "leap-froggers" fail to see is that sometimes its good to be single, to be independently happy is something nobody can take away from you.
Hey guys. To Daz.. keep going. It gets a little better. Just keep fighting temptation.
I was really good tonight (Day 7, A WHOLE WEEK NC!!). He was online (he never goes online) and he put up an away message (he NEVER NEVER NEVER does that) saying he was packing for the "big move" and "yay for him."
And I didn't do a thing. I was intensely curious and confused (he never mentioned moving anywhere... probably just to an appartment with a friend..) but I just ignored him for the time being.
I really want to be friends EVENTUALLY, but for now, NC is working for me.. so whooo!
oooh! For me it's NC starting late JAN 2008- APRIL 2008.
I concur with Jiser. It really does get easier!!! I promise.
ALso, I really like your quote likening holding onto anger to grasping hot coal. So true! That's something that I still struggle with every now and then. :T
