I just had this idea after reading Mik's post.

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!

What about the rest of you?

I would disagree with this 100% Some people do not care, bottom line. They are happy you are gone and that's just it. Even if you did nothing wrong, they find an excuse to be happy that you are out or their lives and for good.

It's 8:56 a.m..I got up about an hour ago after a night of getting drunk..and I woke up with this really paranoid feeling..I wanted to login to my ex's facebook account though I dont know her password or anything..I feel really odd today :/
Im at about a month of NC....it sucks that I still miss her sometimes..the way she broke up with me was disgraceful.

nickshehe

just looked it up..29 days of NC..

I would say if it's at all possible to stop the drinking do so, I feel booze has a depressive effect sometimes especially the morning after, I know it definatley does with me. It's nice to have a beer or whatever sometimes but I think it plays havoc with the emotions especially if you are in a delicate state emotionally after your break-up

Keep the NC up my friend, you will have days where it's worse, things will get better!!!

I think I am over the 60 day mark, but felt the need to give an update..

So lately my ex has been talking to my parents more and more, which I'm okay with because my mom and her were extremely close. Well I walked into my job coming back from break on Saturday and my ex was talking to my parents and my mom said something to me about our new night manager's hair cut and I said "he looks like a walking p*nis" and my ex starts cracking up and says "wow I have really missed your sense of humor" So I played it off and didn't respond. So I get home and my mom comes in and says "I know you don't want to know what me and Brianna talk about but I thought you would want to know this, she said that you have been looking really good lately" I just said "ok thanks" And then yesterday, out of no where, she unblocks me from AIM(which I thought I deleted all her screen names off my list) and I was just baffled by it, but no where near close to breaking NC

congrats rome. just to boost your morale this morning, there's a good chance that it can only get worse from here. it's ok. we'll be here.

my ex has stopped calling me!!! it was an interesting 2 weeks. yikes. Her last contact with me was when she emailed me to let me know that she still has some of my things (keyboard, laptop mouse, ethernet cord, mini-fridge, etc.) and she wants to know when we can meet up so she can give it back to me.

...didn't respond. figured she'd get the msg. I've already cut my losses.

nickshehe

I kind of know it might have a negative effect on me..but when im out and im drinking I rarely think about her until I go home. Yesterday I was having the time of my life up until I went to go to bed

Rome, It's good that you've got the inner strength to resist her..many of us would have probably been sucked in to a possible trap after a compliment or an attempt on her half to reach us..
Though I get spoken too on msn every few days, she doesnt really say anything substantial to me so its easy to shrug it off..

Yea, as far as I'm concerned everytime she tries one of these things I just remind myself she has a boyfriend and it's not worth me stressing over.

I mean part of me wanted to IM her and just say some smarta*s remark about the unblocking but the more mature part said let sleeping dogs lie. So we shall see what's next because as Sneezy pointed out, it's only the beginning

Keep going as you have been guys, Rome,Nick,Sneeze

all doing great guns.

one day those exe's of ours will realise what great guys they let go, but thats there loss all round.

im doing much better, still think of her, but def not as much. went on a date last week, was ok, but nothing will come of it as both not really interested in each other, but its a step in the right direction.

keep posting
