I recently had a small facebook convo with a girl I dated for a year in highschool, and that was like 4-5 years ago. And it felt good to just catch up, and part ways, no drama, no feelings nothing. Until you can successfully pull that off, stay away and go NC

    Leave her alone!

    Interests aren't the hard part I believe that's easy lining that up.. the connection is the biggest thing.. . But ultimately you guys are right.. she made the decision, if it was meant to be and we were what she says we were it never had happened.

    Just to add something she said, sort of seems like a control mechanism. . To me tell me what you think. . She said if you care about me enough you'll be my friend, even if you get a new girlfriend I still want you to try and remain in contact as much as you can. .


    I've come to the realization she's very demanding for someone who just broke up with me. . Granted I think I was a first massive relationship. . But I think she doesn't grasp what her ultimate decision means. . I do.

    Like my ex this girl is playing with your head, she is not interested in you romantically or friendship, she only wants her ego to be stroked a bit, but you can change that, do not respond to her suggestions, stay no contact, then she'll miss you n if she keeps saying sweet nothing in your ear don't fall for it until she's chasing you again, but again maintain no contact. You will know what you have to do when you are healing, remember,she only gets 1 chance to be with u, u can't offer her a relationship anytime soon, be funny,flirt with other girls so your confidence grows and never talk about the past with your ex, if she asks, tell her -- swty that is history and doesn't save the day.

    You need to get over this girl, before you start another relationship. Good luck to you and remember.. You are a good person who deserves a woman who will love you as much as you love her. It will happen! Take time and don't go into a new relationship right away! God:) Bless you

    Looks like your doing good ontothenextone! Keep up the NC... let her chase and let her pursue her friendship so she feels better about herself... but by no means respond. As someone else in the thread said, they only get one chance to be with us. This site is awesome isn't it?

    no worries guys. If April 1st wasn't omen enough my mobile died and deleted most of my ex's messages... haha. . And now I'm onto the next phone = ). . I don't know about the one chance thing though, I know a few couples who are married or otherwise who have gone out before(albeit 2-3 years before re-meeting). . But I isn't concerned with that, you enjoy life as I am doing now.

    cheers guys

    Those relationships are few and far between though, careful you don't hold out too much (if any) hope for that. Take care and you enjoy life to man!
