No contact is exactly what you need. You don't need to tell her all that stuff though. Take a step back from yourself, look at the FACTS, not what you think she feels or you feel. If you were watching your friend go through this relationship do you really think it would hurt her feelings very much if you kept your DIGNITY and said goodbye with something simple...

"This doesn't feel right, I need some time"
-doesn't have to be this

Just make sure it's nothing vengeful or apologetic. If you focus on those two things, you wont spend the next week obsessing over what you said.

u guys are right. I cant handle this RIGHT NOW. maybe later on, but not until im over her can i be freinds. so here is my question. i told her LAST NIGHT i will always be here to talk if she needs me, vice versa. So... how much of an ass do i look like saying, he im gonna ignore you again. wtf??? no, i think maybe, i just wont contact her at all. See, if she calls me and has a bad day or something, fine. But no physical meeting, no hangin out. She can just call me if **** hits the fan. and honestly, i dont think she will bother me that much now that im not ignoring her and were cool again. but i guess time will tell. i think that sounds liek a plan. but im afraid the volume of us talking will determine the ongevity of me moving on honestly. if she calls once in a while, fine. But if she calls every week? oh **** this sucks. im just trying to keep busy for right now, and if she contacts me fine, but im not contacting her.

send this message to her...
Hi,

I agree with you about the decision to break up, I really believe it was the best thing for both of us. I have some big decisions to make and I need some time to think them over. I would really appreciate it if you didn't contact me during this time. I will be in touch when I'm ready.

FCUUUUCKKK! i hate this ****! now im angry at her. i tell her not to contact me, and she calls all the time. has sex with some guy and throughs it in my face. then I breack no contact to get some answers. what does she say to justify her actions. " i dont know, im sorry." then I say i will be there for you whenever you need me, and she doesn't even text or call in 2 days. I'm so ****ing angry right now at her i almost just want to say **** you. As much as i want to help her, she aint even helpin herself man.

Right now i want to do no contact for real. I was doing good before and i KNOW I CAN DO IT. i just thought i would give her one chance to explain, but you know what, when i think about her answers, i wish i had never called. **** her. let her hate me. My mind changes every day 5 times, but right now i really want to tell her that i cant be freinds and to not contact me anymore, period.

Day 2: my boss at my new job just sent me home to relax. she said i need to take care of myself and stop pushing myself for other people. I'm tryin to let go of the past, her, and look at my future, changing the world.

It doesn't matter what her problems are, not anymore, there not my problems anymore, there hers.

If she tries to call me in the next week and keeps texting after i dont answer i think i will block her number. who has the last laugh now, bicth.

I'm just kinda spitting things out to entertain myself and not contact this girl today. I don't expect anyone to read this wall of text nor do I expect any advice. I certainly value anyone's opinion so don't be dissuaded to comment because of this.


Broke up with my girl of 7 months, not a long time at all considering I just finished getting out of a 7 year relationship where we never fought... well maybe like 4 times. This girl I can barely go 4 days without an argument of some kind. But the kicker is that were Cuban, and Cuban people are very loud and aggressive. I have never been this way, well kinda but not so much as to properly represent my birthright, lol. But you just never know if your overreacting because Cuban people overreact to everything. So am I right or wrong? All I know is that she matches all the BPD symptoms Cuban or not, she's a ****ing nut case. She did love me dearly and I really think she tried to make herself better, but I am just too sensible, natural, laid back to cope with her tripping on everything. Not only this but she is a major potty mouth, no lie this girl has called me everything in the book... literally she has used every bad word I have heard to describe me... literally. She thinks i'm black too... nobody has ever told me that. I'm a typical Cuban looking guy, if anything I look Hawiian. People have told me I look American Indian, I swear I could be a great spy I just look like a mix of everything. But yeah neager she calls me. I don't even have nappy hair, I guess the closest ting you can compare my hair to is Indian (dot not feather) hair, jet black real straight and glossy a little curly. Maybe she called me that because parts of me are black... you know... "the dude" is black. Well this girl was just a pain in the ass issues and complaints about anything, cant take her out without hearing a complaint about something or other. And this goes totally against the way I am, I mean heck if my server brings me the wrong food i'll eat it just to try something new unless it's just totally something I would never touch. I just try to stay happy all the time with the things I have. That's me... She complains about everything, is happy with nothing, and wont even eat what she ordered if it missing a slice of tomato when it was supposed to have two. The last straw was when she got into my FBook and read my messages with an ex girlfriend. She saw a message I sent her one of the many times we were broken up inviting her to spend the weekend with me. Totally flipped out, and she did this while I was having my AC installed. So i'm driving the AC guy to Home Depot to buy some parts and I get a text "im shaking and almost threw up, I just read your fbook messages" I was like WTF! I told her those messages were while I was single, and we were technically not together then too because of all the beef from before I had her on a kind of probation. Well she tried hard to be cool with me that day but like so many times it was through gritting teeth. She even told me she was faking. She had to do that alot with me and for seemingly normal stuff anybody else would just not sweat at all. Things like my friend coming over for an hour, me passing by a friends house on the way back from an errand, not paying attention to her (I had to 24/7).. It was so tiring to have her around I swear, what a royal PIA. One thing about crazies is that they love to screw and bot was she good at it, well not like she was an acrobat or anything. She gave the best BJs a man can hope for. And was literally always down to screw. Literally it would be like the end of the news. I could get up from the couch and have the itch "hey lets go lay for a bit" and it was ON. Two hour session with a nap = NIZE. She was a little heavy and loosing fast ever since she got with me. Really a gorgeous woman, one of the prettiest faces I have ever seen on a woman her age. But dam she just drove me totally nuts with how she acted. We would go out and she would be all up in everyone's business. How they hold their child, what they look like, anything she could talk about she did and with such intensity it did seem she was always ready to walk over to them and give them a piece of her mind. I leave people be, if I see abuse i'll stop it, but anything short of that and it's just none of my concern. Anyways as a man it's different to be out in public, you have to be ready to take matters into your hands if someone disrespects you or your lady. I know that at any moment I may have to lay down an azz whoopin (or try to at least). To her it was no problem to get into other peoples business. We would go out and she would get all chatty with just anyone, I am never like this. I am very private, don't talk to even my neighbors because I don't want things to get complicated with them. I just avoid any unnecessary drama, at all costs. She looked for drama under every stone, at every turn. It drove me nuts. She never even got to meet my parents, because I would never take her there when she was acting crazy or even if we had recently had any kind of disagreement. So yeah she never met them!!! lol! F'ed up and crazy all the time!!! I met her whole family... I did want her to meet mine. But she would start talking about questioning them about my roots, like trying to find out if I had black roots. Well... actually I did. Well I know very little of my family, but my mothers side had a famous Jazz singer and he was very dark skinned. Quite honestly I guess i'm a total mix breed type of person. I really don't have any dominant characteristics of any race, well she pinned the black tag on me and I never lived that one down. I swear one of the reasons I left her was just to be a normal person again. No black no white, just me like it always was. Feels good man, really does. I still miss her tho, when someone loves you as much as she loved me they become a permanent fixture of your life kind of. You just never want that kind of love to stop. As bad as it may be I miss the love. But her character was really bad for me, we just didn't match. It started to seem like the arguments were never ending, one leading to the next, then PMS would hit and make things worse. It was just an exercise in futility, it seemed like. We would fight for days over the most insignificant things. Horrible, and I am already a person that has suffered allot. When I was young my father was the always pissed off kind of person, you couldn't talk to him at all. So I really don't have tolerance for drama or extended attitudes. I see a sh!t face and i'm outta there! Well I think I made it, she did email me a couple times while I was writing this letter to ask some questions about her car tires, it was cool. At least I didnt but out the "I miss you" crap and get the fire going again. Thanks guys for pulling me through another one. And if you actually read this whole thing Thank You too, have a great day.

Day 3: raining hard all day after an 8 hour shift. I miss her so much. one minute, pissed as a mother ****er. then, im just sad and miss her. Last time we talked i told her i would be there for her anytime. I think thats why she hasn't called me in 4 days. She thinks shes got me so she doesn't need me. but,If she new i was going no contact she would probably call a **** ton. SO hopefully she tries calling, realizes im ignoring her and this plays out for 60 days this time, NOT 11.
i know this is for the best now that i broke no contact once before, but man is it the hardest thing i have ever done.

staystrong... you need to stop thinking like that. You still seem like you wish she calls you back. and no contact is just a ploy to eventually contact her. Cut that string from her, forget her, she is gone and move to the next girl. Girls don't like clingy men. This will take some time, but you will get over it.

Man I really want to do this but I am in a terrible predicament!!

We broke up about a month and a half ago, and I'm in college living with a suite with a bunch of potheads. She's always coming over at times when I'm not even dressed, or trying to just chill out and not see her. What's worse is that while I am trying to quit weed and improve myself, she comes over and smokes up everybody else, and flirts with my roommate, who is pretty much a gross, hairy, short loser who smokes a lot of weed and wins money at casinos.

I want to tell her to not come around anymore, but I have a feeling it would definitely make me look weak. I've been making out with lots of other girls, but my ability to close has been just pathetic lately and not having sex for the past month has got me really on edge. I also don't want to mess with the "not giving a f*ck" vibe of my group of friends. I'm honestly the only one of my friends that seems like they have emotions, and can actually feel sh*t, and I really feel like the wuss of the group since I've been single. The only choices I have are to suffer more, or show her that after a month and a half, I still haven't moved on.

Any help? Other than this problem I've been going NC and it's slowly helping, but we're all going on a big trip in a few months and I want to be completely over her by then.

I'm unsure how many days it's been here. I guess three weeks. She's made contact once. I did respond to her text, but it was laconic and I did not attempt to carry on the conversation although she did.

I popped in at a relatives house unannounced for a quick visit and right behind me my ex's mom pulls up too. I just new she was with her and sure enough she hops out of the passenger seat. She looked like she saw an effing ghost. It was the first time I've seen her since she broke up with me. I actually got quite a bit of pleasure from seeing her so uncomfortable. I could just tell by her body language and how she spoke that seeing me was the worse thing possible for her. I'm not trying to stroke my own ego, but I could tell she is not over me at all. She looked sad.

I felt absolutey nothing. Zero attraction or emotion. I was friendly but I'm not sure I said much more than hi and bye to her. Her mom however talked my ear off. I know her mom absolutely loves me and I know first hand she was pissed at her daughters choice in walking away from me. I can only imagine that the mother and my rapport only made the ex feel worse. I loved every minute of it.

Btw, I have two steady plates and I'm working on two more. One of the two i'm working is a sure thing, but I have to see her a few times a week. I've literally turned her down twice. Its making her more aggressive. I'm unsure how far I want to push things with her if things go south. The other one is a true HB9 and I'm playing it slow. She's throwing me IOI's but I'm trying to be patient and aloof.

All you guys struggling with this hang tough. There's way better trim out there than the one you're fretting over now. Things will get better and life will roll on.
