    I somewhat agree. I’m avoidant and the only reason I learned that and began to work on myself was after an extremely difficult breakup that caused me to self-reflect and recognise all of the mistakes I was making. I had a call with Craig and told him myself that as painful as my breakup was, I actually needed for it to happen.

    I'm guilty of doing this myself. My gf was taking some time to herself. I was biting my nails to the quick. I forced myself to just wait. I didn't reach out at all. Nothing. No texts or calls. It was really difficult. But I was rewarded after 10 days of 'no contact'. She reached out and was eager to talk to me. I was grateful that I held out. It went well. It wasn't so bad afterall. I'm still here. I know eventually it will happen again.

    My LDR has backed off with flirting and romance . Her dad is very ill and she’s had business problems. I’m being supportive on a daily basis , but feel like I’m losing or lost what we had . The illness caused us to cancel a holiday together which was going to be our first meet after 6 months of messages and calling daily for 3-4 months . Unfortunately she isn’t as able to call all the time now

    If there's no communication people have a tendency to overthink because you don't know what is going on. I think people should ask why is a person over thinking there's a reason why a person might over think and it has nothing yo do with not having confidence. Comm is the key to stop people from OT.

    i did ALL THE Wrong things they say. He asked for space while we were together (LDR). we last called in march, in april we had a fight and asked for space. I sent a few long messages in which I apologised for all my faults and i told him how much oi loved him and valued him. I was supposed to move to his country in Oct. he ignored me. I texted him at the beginning of June and I was over texting and pushing so he dumped me. then he blocked me everywhere. He went from talking about marriage and kids (i didn't want them but he made me change my mind) to this. I can't believe and i just don't understand. It's been about 3 weeks of NC. he's back on dating apps ... I won't reach out. If he doesn't want me his loss. He's too proud and stubborn to come back ... I dared him to leave me and push him ... I did all she says at 10:00 ...

    My ex broke up with me 2 months ago and I tried to fix things for all this time. So I think it’s getting better. We sleep together, hang out, talk but nothing more. She wanted me as a friend and keeps contacting me everyday about everything. So I told her that I can’t be just a friend and don’t want to continue communicating and if she’ll change her mind about me she can write me… she got very upset by this.. so I’m in no contact for 5 days. Did I do the right thing? Is it a mistake that I said I don`t want to continue communicating? Because she stoped texting me after that at all..

    I initially went no contact after my ex of 4 year broke up with me and I have broken it in 3 days and beg her to stay with me. She told me me to never call her again and unfortunately my anxiety got the best of me in less than 2 weeks after that and I called again. This time she was very angry at me and blocked me every where. Do no contact still work in my case? I am anxious and she is avoidant.

    She came back after 1 year of no contact . Slowly, we talked and got back together. I treated her well. After 5 months of intense relationship when she wasn’t expecting it, I started to pull away and i sent her a 3-word breakup message followed by videos of me and her best friend in action. Then I blocked her, now she is calling me crying 🤣🤣🤣🤣 . It was funny, I feel better. That 's what she deserved . Yeah do them dirty too.

    Question: Had an amazing ‘flash’ connection in which we futurized (bad) talked about the future (good) just fell hard for each other! Went exclusive 6/6…he broke up w me 6/14🫤 A few days later before I knew anything about attachment styles, I wrote a letter (bad) to clear my own plate so I could move forward (good). After listening to you all, is his having this letter (in which I was kind and accepting) feeding his need for me now that we are full ‘no contact’? So things will take SO much longer to get back together 🤦🏼‍♀️
