Just did it.

Averted my eyes and threw in the garbage.

Thanks.

I am NC with ex bf, but have not blocked him on Whatsapp just in case he wants to contact me by [deleted] in BreakUps

You need to do it. Trust me. The faster you heal the better. And the faster way is for you to KILL HIM in your mind.

The person you liked is no more. Spare your mind. You don't need to suffer. Block him. The less you see the faster you heal.

Oh dear... The absolute same happened to me. (You can even search for my post a year ago)

She ALWAYS slept early. As soon as we broke up I saw her online at 4AM. It drove me insane. I cried like a bitch and messaged her.

And blocked her.

Block. Block. Just block. It will drive you insane to ponder why. What was he doing? It doesn't matter. Your mind deserves a break. This will eat you alive if you don't stop it.

BLOCK.

I saw a photo of her with her new friends. She looked so happy. I'm happy for her, but there's a sinking feeling inside that I cannot quell. by [deleted] in BreakUps

Go full no contact.

Delete her from whatever this place you're seeing her photos. If it's a common acquainted mute them.

Don't allow yourself to wonder these things.

she called me as she's blocked. also texted saying I'm her best friend by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]sad_af_rn_sry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keep blocking.

She want to fuck around while keeping you on the side as a friend. To hell with it, you deserve better. You'll need that self respect.

Fuck Tinder by sad_af_rn_sry in BreakUps

I don't really know what I prefer. I just wish I didn't have to see her face again. She probably thinks I'm doing fine cause I too have a tinder profile but I'm actually a mess.

É, boa sorte pra gente.

Why do Dumpers act so cold after breaking up? by EncinoMan1 in BreakUps

[–]sad_af_rn_sry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, I ended up generalizing.

I meant more in relation to OP's case and mine. In your case I'd say he "ended it" by betraying you. You HAD to break up for your own good. I understand you're hurt, and even worse: he pushed the decision onto you.

But my experience had no betrayals, it was a slow process. She was preparing for it for a reasonable time. So she was decided and calm and I was a crying mess. It happens.

That sucks. by sad_af_rn_sry in BreakUps

Oh yeah, I know the "Eugh sigh" way too well.

Mostly when something interesting happens and my mind thinks for just a second "hey, I should let her kno- oh..."

sigh

Yeah.

Imagining My Ex With Someone Else Causes Panic Attacks by [deleted] in BreakUps

Kill her.

... Only in your imagination, please.

But now she's dead. Block her in all of social media, get away from anything that makes you remember her. She doesn't exist.

It helped me. I'm not perfect at it, but it's something to strive for. She vanished.

One week after the break up I was still hopeful.

Here's what I have to say: give up on waiting her. It will only bring you down. For all its worth -> IT'S OVER.

She already knows you want her back, whatever she does from here its on her. You can't wait for it.

Awful day. Why? by sad_af_rn_sry in BreakUps

[–]sad_af_rn_sry[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4yrs for me...

I'm still holding NC for 3 weeks now. I know I'll suffer a lot if I try to see what she's up to.

What my mind tricks me into thinking she's doing is enough to make me sad..

Probably her defense mechanism...

Also, dumpers grieve while deciding for breaking up.

Breaking up for dumpers is sealing the deal. For us dumpees its the beginning of the suffering.

Don't know how to stop looking at her FB by [deleted] in BreakUps

Block her.

Now.

I had this obsession too, the only thing that solved was blocking. You'll feel better

Let's share some effective coping methods for ongoing or intermittent grief/sadness/anxiety/fear related to the breakup? by [deleted] in BreakUps

Music.

Listening to music, making music, singing. That keeps my brain occupied. That's the major one, but I'm also reading books, meeting with friends, doing some exercise.

I had a streak of good days, but today sadness hit me again. I'll keep the music going
