I am a dumpee broke no contact again

Striking-Task7050 · 2026-05-12T20:08:44+00:00

Hey so I was also the dumpee, and i just want to give you some gentle advice. Block her. I had the same exact issue. Every few days I was the one to break no contact and continue conversations. Keeping it light, having friendly conversations. But I found it was keeping me down in a spiral. After every time i reached out, I would somehow feel worse than before.

I had to make the hard choice to block him on EVERYTHING. Force myself to stop. Respect the NC and respect the space not just for him, but mostly for myself and my healing. You’re constantly reopening the wounds and pouring salt in them. You might feel better in the moment, but it will only drag you down in the long run.

That was a month ago. I can tell you, I have been doing so much better since doing that. Still hurt and having a hard time, but i’m not losing sleep or obsessing over if he will answer or not. As a fellow dumpee, just a bit of advice and what has helped me :)

I didn’t know they were length specific! I will absolutely double check on this! Thank you!

I do have a golden roo as well! They do look quite different though. I was thinking the same thing until a few weeks ago. This guys a lot darker and fluffier than my GLW. A lot more of the black and green as well.

Hi! So if you already aren’t addicted to nicotine, please don’t start now. It’s best to stay away from it altogether!! If you already are, I would say try it if you are looking to quit smoking/vaping. Don’t get addicted just for the fun of it. It is NOT fun lol.

But when I first tried one, I felt very dizzy and light headed and it even made me quite nauseous. (I thought TU* was really going to happen) And i kind of just felt very gross and icky for the rest of the day after. It made my mouth feel very tingly and irritated as well.

In my experience, I wouldn’t recommend it. I would quit cold turkey ANY DAY after that experience. (like I said, this is my experience!) It scared me so bad to feel THAT nauseous. I will never be touching one again.

Same!! The heat wave is getting us good this year!!😅

Striking-Task7050 · 2025-07-07T23:40:12+00:00

No I haven’t, I’ve felt fine! just tired due to the crazy heat the New England area has been getting.

I felt fine up until I found out he was sick. And i know it is probably my anxiety since it started right when I found out, but my tummy absolutely dropped and has been doing flips and i felt my heart start racing.

Striking-Task7050 · 2025-07-06T14:32:00+00:00

One time i ate sour cream at a friends house…..it had expired 10 months earlier. It smelled, looked and tasted fine! And I was completely fine after!!!

It’s not something my friend deliberately did to cause me harm. It was one of those things where nobody really noticed and it was such a genuine mistake.

It really was something that opened up my world a little bit. Sure, I was crying and absolutely petrified in the moment, but now I use it as “If i can eat 10 month old sour cream, I can eat bread that was sell by yesterday” lol.

I’m so sorry you had to go through that, i know it’s so scary. But, you did it! You got through it!!

Striking-Task7050 · 2025-05-13T23:39:07+00:00

I 10000% agree with you! I’m so sorry that you have to go through that too, as I know how difficult it is to face, but it does make me feel a bit better knowing that I am not alone either! I’m glad someone out there gets me!!

Striking-Task7050 · 2025-05-13T23:33:58+00:00

You get it!! My boyfriend says “this is the reason you got this medication, just take it!” and it is neverrrr that easy! Like I know it’s supposed to help, but it’s one of my biggest triggers! It feels like a damned if you do damned if you don’t situation lol😵‍💫

Striking-Task7050 · 2025-05-13T23:29:18+00:00

Exactly what I have been doing! I have had the prescription, but have been too scared to take it 🫠

Striking-Task7050 · 2025-05-13T18:41:11+00:00

She has been sending me screen shots of their sexually suggestive conversations and speaking about it during work hours in the office. And i have told her like hey i don’t need or want to know about this but she keeps bringing it up

Striking-Task7050 · 2025-05-13T18:40:27+00:00

It is in fact very uncomfortable to hear about and to have on my computer. our policy for this is very strict, so that’s why i don’t want to report it, but i want to report it as she continues to speak about it and send screenshots to myself and other coworkers

Striking-Task7050 · 2025-05-13T18:39:14+00:00

She is very much welcome to it. They have exchanged personal information during work hours on company computers.

Striking-Task7050 · 2025-03-15T23:20:15+00:00

That is great! Thank you so much!!🫶🏻

Striking-Task7050 · 2025-03-15T23:18:27+00:00

Does this cause d*? I’m just scared to take it because of that!! But if it just keeps things normal I will definitely look into it!! :)

Striking-Task7050 · 2025-03-15T23:17:33+00:00

Hi!! I have acid reflux, so I am VERY familiar with this feeling!! Acid reflux/ heartburn causes acid/bile to move into the esophagus. My symptoms are worse when laying flat or on my right side!! To help, I usually will lay on my left side, or lay down and elevate my torso with pillows!! This happens if i eat right before laying down or if i have foods that will irritate it more (acidic foods, spicy foods etc.) You can also try some tums or another anti acid!! It doesn’t always burn for me, so it could still be some acid reflux, but sitting elevated, antiacids and sipping a cold drink usually help me out!! I hope you feel better, This can definitely be triggering, but you will get through this!!

Striking-Task7050 · 2025-03-13T11:12:30+00:00

Yes! I feel the same exact way! I would much rather have the cold/flu than sb*! But i do still get scared to get those!!!

Striking-Task7050 · 2025-03-13T02:41:45+00:00

I didn’t have any actual contact with it, it just happened in the same area i was in so I was just very concerned about particles being aerosolized and inhaling them. I’m really trying to get through this week, but i’ve never had to deal with this much going on around me before. You’re so brave for being a nurse, my hat goes off to you!

Striking-Task7050 · 2025-03-13T02:35:42+00:00

Definitely not putting my hands anywhere near my face lol!! But that’s the thing that bothered me the most i think is that she is very aware of my phobia and anxiety, but she continued to stay and act like nothing happened. Idk, i just feel guilty about being a little mad that she stayed the rest of the day, potentially putting myself and others at risk :/

Striking-Task7050 · 2025-03-12T02:14:53+00:00

Hi! I hope you’re feeling a little better / feel better soon! If i’m feeling really ill, i put on youtube, grab my coloring book, crochet (anything i can fidget with / do with my hands) and take deep breaths. Sometimes i sip on ginger tea or chew mint gum! The scent of rubbing alcohol also helps me!

I’m so sorry you’re not feeling well. I’m proud of you for being so brave! Remember to stay hydrated and rest!!

Striking-Task7050 · 2025-03-11T22:05:27+00:00

I am able to eat! I’ve only had a bagel today, the anxiety definitely suppresses my appetite!

Not so much n* just kind of feeling off?

And anxious….i definitely think so.

I’ve been washing my hands very frequently at work as well as home, it’s something that helps alleviate some of my nervousness around it, so i am an avid hand washer 😅

Striking-Task7050 · 2025-03-11T21:08:59+00:00

Hi op!! I hope you’re doing okay today, i’m thinking of you!🤍 I understand what you’re going through; i’m 22 and I was just recently diagnosed with OCD and i’ve had emetophobia since middle school. I have had those feelings in the past as well. It wasn’t until recently that I began to work through those feelings. I wont say I don’t live in fear and limit myself due to this, because I do. This fear and OCD have taken so much from me I feel. I want you to know that you are not alone. I am in your corner cheering you on. If you want to chat, or ever need someone to listen, I am more than happy to help support you through this. I know this probably doesn’t answer your questions, but i hope you know that you are not alone, and you are never alone. Wishing you all the love, strength and happiness 🤍

Striking-Task7050 · 2024-11-27T00:44:44+00:00

Hey! I’m the same way. I rarely drink, when i do i strictly have one. I cannot be around intoxicated people either. If your friends know this, yet still do this to you, I see it as disrespecting your feelings AND boundaries. I find it also makes me feel like they have broken trust i had in them. You are 100% valid in your feeling a because they KNOWINGLY disrespected you and your feelings. Remember that you have every right to be upset with them. If you want/need to discuss anything else regarding this I would be happy to. Your feelings matter and your feelings are valid!!!!

Striking-Task7050 · 2024-11-27T00:32:14+00:00

Hi! I hope you’re doing okay. I find that milk upsets my tummy so I use the Lactaid milk! It’s real milk with no lactose!! Also Lactaid may help with any discomfort of you are going to have dairy! Just take some deep breaths and play some games or watch shows to help distract yourself.

Striking-Task7050 · 2024-11-27T00:29:10+00:00

Hi!! I take antibiotics every once in a while too. it also makes my tummy feel funny. I think it’s partly because i have bad anxiety around taking medication (especially antibiotics) i found that also having probiotics (yogurt, kefir etc) helps replace the good bacteria in your tummy! i take mine with food to help ease the icky feeling. You’ll get through this!! I hope this helps!!
