    It's a bit of a rollercoaster the first couple of weeks. Just take it one day at the time.

    No contact Benson-for you so that you can heal. And keep as busy as you can.

    Good morning I hope you re ok-its confusing when other people text or get in touch with whatever information or their opinion in this kind of situation.
    It s left you with questions nobody can answer.
    Generally speaking taking time out or going on a break are just another way of saying breaking up.
    At the top of the relationship page here are the stickies with lots of good advice-have you read them?
    Stay strong.

    That's the long and short of it,we never know what's going on in somebody else s mind or what they intend to do.
    So any advice given is based on general experience and statistics.
    Which is why I d say you treat this as a breakup and start healing from it.
    Breakups hurt like h**l but we survive them by staying no contact and getting on with our own lives.
    It takes time and patience.

    You must respect that wish.
    If someone does nt want contact we can't force them.
    Respect yourself and keep no contact.

    You have ruined nothing but the thought that false hope, has changed his mind. Now do what you KNOW YOU need to be doing.

    If I'm honest I knew he would not want to get back. It was more whether or not he was missing me.
    I seemed to think he was get over this easily. He has been dead cold with me and he explained that it's the only way he can deal with everything.
    Its kind of put my mind at ease a little is that weird?
    He is still wanting to do the one month thing which I think is OK but your right I need to look at it as a break up not a break.

    The final text I sent said that I miss him (a bit silly I know) but that I'm happy to do the month thing but I am going to try and not think about us and although I hope we can sort things out
    I know need to get on with things and not assume anything. Do you think that was OK?

    He has not text back but I think but maybe that's cause there is nothing else to say?

    We want you to start healing from your breakup and as best you can stop worrying about what's going on in his mind.
    By staying no contact this time you don't have to wonder about him getting back to you,and you don't have to live in false hope.
    Keep busy and do things that take your mind off things.

    I finally got round to cleaning the muck that's accumulated in my flat,
    I read the sticky and apparently that's a good step! I am happy with the idea of no contact
    I think if its meant to be it will and if not there is no way for me to control it
    I just won't to concentrate on myself for now!

    I hope this feeling does not fade! I'm sure ill have my set backs!
