OK, so it has only been a week since the break up. I've tried very hard to do NC, but somehow I let myself go in moments of weakness and I call or text him. It's been 8 days since we broke up. Yesterday I started NC, didn't call or text or anything all day... then today, I was at work and I called. I don't know why... I guess I'm still holding on to some hope. He said the same thing again... that he doesn't want to be in a relationship, that he's tired of being stressed out all the time.

I need help with NC... how do I make it easier to do? I feel like I always need reminders of why not to do it. Also, today is my last day of work and I have vacation for about a week. After a 5 year relationship with him, it's so hard not to hear from him for so long. HELP!!

You delete any way of contacting him! Every possible way to get in touch with him.

You want a reminder of why NC... Look at my old posts from when I first started on the forum and then now. There is a HUGE difference and my outlook on relationships and life are so much better

I stick to NC pretty easily by imagining my ex with someone else plus I count how many days or weeks I have stuck at NC and think do I really want to go back to square one? Nope! Stick to NC I assure you it only gets easier with time.
