Wish I had read that the day after my ex said she needed space.

I didn't though. And I didn't find this place until it was too late.

I begged, cried, pleaded etc. Uuuggghhhhh yuck!

It was horrible and I regret it so much and ultimately it just pushed her so much farther away! Sad!

Thats why I implore people to listen to the advice here. It doesn't sounds logical at first but as we all find out it is pretty much all spot on the money!

You and me both Skell as you know...

Yet luckily, I don't think I did it too much a couple of times but I still did it and even once is bad enough but when you are the one left behind, it really, really hurts!

Yes, that was a great article, full of balance too..

Not just focusing on no contact as a means of getting an ex back but focusing on aiding the healing and acceptance.

Hat off to 4answers for finding it..

The biggest mistake coming here is thinking the no contact is about winning the ex back. It is a common one and one I must admit I made myself at first.

But it isn't, it is about YOU and you alone.

Your right though, it really does hurt being left behind and you think that you need to prove your love again. Doesn't work that way sadly. Otherwise I would have won her back no problem the way I carried on. LOL!

If I were completely honest Skell,

I am still not 100% free of getting the 'will she come back' completely out of my system but I think less about it and I don't think of no contact as a way to get her back anymore..

I have many people on here to thank for that.. And grateful to you all too.

There is a little devil back there sometimes (in my head) that says 'what if she did?'

I guess that is just being human..and I know I bang on about how much No Contact is for focusing on you and I really believe what others have told me...

There will always be some thought process there at the back of the head, I think?

But I am a realist!
