The *No Contact* Challenge! ( Read this if you just got dumped)

[finality]

Seen my new plate last night. Got close to banging but I wasn't too aggressive since we are going out tonight and should be able to close the deal.

Woke up today missing my X tho. Today is day 1 of NC again.

Day 56
So yesterday I nearly anged a new plate ut the place was too crowded wit a lot of friends and with my ex. Kinda beta because I wasnt so sure if i should had kissed her because my ex was like 5 foot from me but at the I was like **** this and did it.
The only thing that I'm sure is that this girl want something serious, but she is pretty boring and I don't want anything serious from her

 

[finality]

The b!tch texts me saying she can't talk to me any more (even though I haven't initiated contact once) and then recommended me a relationship book.

 

[kenpiffyjr]

Just ignore

 

[finality]

I hooked up with my new plate last night.

But I woke up this morning and all I could do is think about my X. Its been 13 days since I last slept with her.

Today is day 1 of NC. I never reach out but its hard not to respond to her when I just want to hold her.

Am I an AFC? I have no problem gaming other women but this case of oneitis is unbelievable.

LDR 2yr (about 1yr of total face time)
me: 50
her: 32

had been engaged.

Breakup: Jan 23
("I think I am having feelings for someone, I kissed, 3rd base/****)
no begging, lots of crying, on-off NC started by her

anyway
last Skype Feb 29
I start NC
March 11, my 50th ( I go to USA, I live in Finland, she lives in Russia )
She calls at 00:00 happy birthday, I am clubbing.. I say thanks
blabla when you come back...
I say if you want to talk, you can call, I am busy doing my own thing

Have not unfriended on any Social, she has "liked" posts of mine since Feb 29
I have not touched hers
However, today was a very interesting "like" by her out of character about couples daily routines and just let the small arguments go and be happy being together.

Now my tips for NC endurance:
1. NO CONTACT
2. NO FAPPING
3. NO PORN
4. NO FAPPING TO THOUGHTS, DREAMS OR PICS OF YOUR EX
5. NO FAPPING... SHE CHEATED (see item 4)
6. NO CONTACT

FAP ONLY IF YOU GET EGO FROM ANYONE EXCEPT YOUR EX
AND FAP TO THEM!



(as an exersize I recommend reading all 400+ pages of this thread)
NC day 22/11

This helped me, (because this is our first real breakup, and after 50 years of women, this hurt the most.)

Put her in a coma mentally in your mind, much like death but not fully dead and not a vegatable
she might wake up in:
a week
a month
a year
20 years
never

Handle that as you wish, perhaps find resources for coping with a partner who has been in an accident but in a coma. How long do you wait, how to move on...

To me this never works. I might be able to temporarily put her in a coma for a certain amount of time. but eventually it will burst flames into your hurts causing you unbelievable pain.. the long the coma lasts for, the more painful it gets when you realize you haven't moved on and you're living in denial.
I hope you get over your difficulties soon. stay strong bro

 

[MrWood]

thank you. I know that the time will go very fast. I cant see taking her back now, not insta-back in any capacity, I value myself too much. I think 6mo before consider any "relationship" and spin plates across Finland/Europe for the summer.

CONCENTRATE FULLY ON YOUR OWN LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Get so involved in your in life, in your own work, in your own hobbies, in your own passions, making
new friends, making new memories, going on new trips, exploring new worlds, watching movies, reconnecting with literature......I mean have you read all of George Orwell? Have you read Charles Bukowski? Have you studied the history of cinema? Have you tasted Macallan? Get involved.....get your hands dirty......

Get so busy with YOU......that you think about her less and less.....until one day you wake up and you
realize that you have to make an effort to think about her.......now you want to think about her a little and in a weird perverse way you kind of miss that obsession that you USED TO HAVE....

The only way to steer yourself healthily away from a negative obsession or an afflictive emotion...............is to FOCUS FULLY ON THE OPPOSITE.......

.....WHAT YOU FOCUS ON BECOMES BIGGER AND BIGGER.....

.....so why not focus on you and your life. Everything that's not so important will naturally drop by the
wayside......

....almost with no effort.

It's a matter of pushing in the right effort. And patience.

Remember. Plant, cultivate, harvest.

.....remove the weeds with ease.

 

[MrWood]

Thanks! Going strong.

In Finland its been crap because this all went down in the dead of winter and like 4hrs of daylight! Spring is coming here, more girls out. (summertime it is effectively daylight for 20h / dusk light after). Expanding circle slowly. My social issues are that I have never actually been "single" here. I travel extensively and have had several sexual encounters traveling (but maintained my monagamy as was in what I thought were committed relationships). Of course my ex swung to another branch, caused mostly by the LDR and age gap (she has no kids)

It is hard as a 50yo after 5 years of banging and relationships with -35yo that have bodies and faces of 25yo and 18yo tits.. everything I consider hittig is age inappropriate from the female point of view. My only advantage is that I mostly date only Russians, that have no problems dating a +15y to them.
*however the 19-23yo set seem to be after NSA "50shades of Mr Wood".

This. The other day was the birthday of the girl that drove me here. I remembered ot at 11 pm, because the next day was the birthday of a bro, and I was like "oooh that's true".
Focus on your life, your mind will take care of riding of her itself

Day 2 of NC.

ex called me twice yesterday and left a text saying that she knows that I had a good time with my plate (I hooked up but it made me feel worse) and that it hurts her even thought it shouldn't. I didn't respond.

She left me for another guy. She is just trying to keep me around as a back up.

you did good bro, keep this up. You should block her so you can't read the messages. We all know how good that validation you get feels, but is all for the ego, you won't get any real advantage from reading them.

 

[finality]

The X texted again (just a meaningless text) to which I didn't reply to. Then she called and left a message saying that she is sorry for her weakness and that she will do her best not to contract me anymore.

This chit is fuking me up. Its like every 2 days she is breaking up with me again even though she already did. I don't have the will power to put her on ignore so I have 2 options.

- Tell her never to contact me again
- Just continue NC

What should I do.

Part of me is waiting for her to come crawling back even. I have a new plate that I'm already banging, a plate from out of town that is coming to see me in 3 weeks, plus a few plates that want to meet up with me that I met online.

I can get other women. I just can't over my ex. I started going out more and making myself busy but fuk. I've never been like this before.

 

[CuddleJunkie]

You need more NC and more time. Your mind will take care of itself if you keep busy creating new awesome memories. One day you will think about how you don't think about here anymore, and you will take a beer all by yourself and it will be tasty as ****.

Dont text her again, trust me, you should know that it just opens up a whole can of worms from your experience with her. She told you one time why was wrong for her, then she spoke about her bf to you. She knows youre getting stronger, and is now telling you shes sorry, but keep it up.

I was also the same. I broke up with my ex, I was thinking about her while I was banging other women. A month later and its all gone.

BLOCK HER ON ALL FORMATS....BLOCK HER PHONE NUMBER.......BLOCK HER ON FB.....YOU GET THE IDEA.....then you will never know if she texts, calls or what ever

Day 2

My GF of 3 years admitted to cheating on me a couple weeks back. I cant describe the rage I felt at the time, it made me wonder if she ever cheated on me before that too. It should be two weeks without contact now but today is actually day 2 of no contact.

Quick update, long story short, couldnt get into my old account had to create a new one

but I failed guys, a couple days after, which was on a tuesday, she sucked me in to texting her. It was her startin off by texting and telling me she must mean nothing to me if Im throwing three years of friendship away. I reiterared my stance on the situation and she then went on to tell me how she has a new bf (probably the guy she cheated on me with)and how I must be jealous.

This turned into an argument until I told her Id be getting a new number the following day. She responded by apologising, asking to be friends, telling me how I can be a good friend to her and how I should see her on the weekend because she has things arranged for me! I could probably have got her into bed but I wont be lured back by her offering herself to me.The only thing I dont know if I did right was the last message which was me telling her she will never be seeing me for a while if she ever does.

Anyway, moral of the story which most guys know here, dont text her back once you know its done.Ive changed my number now and deleted hers, which I dont know by memory, so the only way she can get to me is to visit me, and she lives 30 mins away so I cant see it happening. Ive finally let her go. I used to check my phone for her texts, but its kicked in now, there is no way we will speak again. I dont know why I sort of regret changing my number, but in the long run its a good thing.

Anyway its now day 7 since no contact, still thinking of her as well.
