My boyfriend broke up with me after an argument that to me was not something to break up over. The thing he said was that it's just been too much over time. He hates arguments and he says he's been heart broken for a whole because I give him a hard time about things. It's been three weeks now and I have spent them realizing what I had been doing. I've been doing steps 1-3 to no avail. I've begged, pleaded, reminded him of all the good things we have that are very important to a fruitful relationship and I ask him to value that. He says he does an that he lives me too an that won't change but feels that even if we OT back together, we would end up right back here again. I'm at a loss and my heart is doing no better. I text him and call and he responds and will even say, he loves me too and misses me too. If I want to talk, he listens and gives me time. At least he gives me that but at the end of the day, things are still the same and nothing has mattered. Here is the issue: I'm ready to no contact but the problem is we still live together for reasons of the lease, cost of the apartment and we just moved here. I don't want to move my kids again this soon again. He has spent a lot of nights w his mom since the breakup which is where he's been for the last couple days and with the weekend and the holiday coming up, I'm sure I won't see him for about 10 days but I'm sure he will eventually be here. I stopped txtn him yesterday and even though I'm fighting the urge as we speak, I want to be strong. My question is: how do I do nc if eventually he will be here? Should I even be doing nc?
