So, me and a friend headed out to Detroit (2.5 hours away), to meet-up with his sister,
Another mutual friend of ours, and my ex ex girlfriend.

The meeting with the ex ex went very smoothly. It...

It's been over 9 weeks now with NC.
I've been moving forward quite well, gently getting back into the dating scene.

Although.. today I messed up, I use 'Webstagram' with my Android phone, and...

puccini, very nice reply, well thought-out and well-said! Thanks!

When I saw her at the show with bands, I did not want to show that I was weak. I wouldn't say that I was 'mean' per-say, but...

Thanks for all the input, folks.

Yeah, I won't make a big deal out of it. Simple and short.
6 years is a while, it seems OK to poke for a minute and see what lies there.
I'm keeping an open...

No sex or closure. It's far beyond that, 16 months.

I was thinking of just checking in for a 1/2 hour and seeing where she is in general.

That's it. She lives 3 hours away and I'm...

Hey guys, so I am meeting up with an ex girlfriend this week.

We've had no communication for the entire 16 months that we've been broken up, which felt needed. The breakup was mutual, and we...

It's been more than 7 weeks now, No Contact.
Still have tough days/times, but fewer and fewer.
Destroy & Rebuild.

Still maintaining NC. Un-friended, but not blocked her on Facebook some time ago, but finally had a couple of days where I stubbornly didn't look at her page to see what she was up to. It's been...

Maintaining NC. We'll probably be bumping into each other around town or at shows, how do I handle this? Just act like she's another normal person, or try to avoid/give the cold shoulder, or say...

It's so impossible to not 'cyber stalk' these days! I hate it! It's just extra tough because I've dated a few women and had 4 longer-term relationships, and this one seemed so right in comparison. ...

Over the Year
My ex and I dated just over a year. It was great, through my eyes for sure. We went on 4 vacations together, went on many excursions in town, spent time getting to know each other's...

Wow- it's been awhile since anyone has said anything on this thread. Anyway, davinchi- make darn sure to NOT make contact with her. Give her ALL the space she needs, no matter how hard it is. Do...

No comments?

Day 9

Well, upon several more calls and plees from the 'ex', I texted her saying
"what else is there to talk about? (you've made your feelings clear)"
She said she really needed to talk to me,...

Staying Strong!

I had another close call just last night (night 7 of me not contacting her)- she texted me saying that she "swears it'll be the last time she contacts me w/o me initiating it, but...

Thanks for the encouragement guys.
Obviously its hard to not give any care to her, I just keep reminding myself of the fact that she trampled on my heart.

Hey guys, this has been 5 days since the BIG confrontation/NO CONTACT started. My now ex has been texting/emailing/calling at least once per day since. Nothing crazy like "I want to come back", but...

NO!

Do NOT talk to her this week!

DO talk to OTHER girls this week!

She was VERY cold-hearted to you at the heart of it all-

You should be ANGRY, not crying to her ANY MORE!

Talaniman- I do realize that I need to heal and to move one..

I guess I am just asking/trying to understand what I need to do as a 'friend' like you say.
Because right now, being a 'friend' to...

Move in with another family member- even a cousin, etc.
They could help.

It probably is high time you move out.

Get a job if you don't have one, find a friend if you don't have one, and...

A long one here, thank in advance for your patience in reading and time... A lot can happen in 4 days!

Well, after 14 days, I said we had to talk and figure out what was going on. She picked me...

Well, it is day 10 today. Last night she called me and we talked for an hour and half. First it was just casual, trying to catch up on what has been happening in each others' lives. Then,...

Thanks for the suggestions guys ( and gals ).

I guess it just took some wise folks to let me in on the truth of it all.
Obviously I don't want to lose her, but I am also trying to be...

This is my first post, so hopefully this all pans out alright- I'm really thankful for a place like this to get some other perspectives on issues.

So, my girlfriend and me have dated for a...
