I'm going to try to be as cordial as possible. I will see him again so it's not like I can avoid him. In fact I will see him Saturday night which is why I would rather get this straightened out and it not be awkward. Or even worse if he's boo'd up with another woman and I'm all :to: I would rather be warned and know the deal before hand I guess.
Its tough. The same advice applies as it does to us regarding women.

Keep it moving and shift your attn elsewhere for now.

If someone is distant and cold and there not in school and it ain't exam period bushes.

If someone is into you they don't do that ish, more than likely the novelty wore off and he's chatting to a new brehette

It sucks bit that's how it is in this day and age

Word. I appreciate the advice and I'm not hurt by him moving on, I more so would rather get an explanation if that makes sense. Even if it's as simple as "I found someone else". That's the part that is going to bother me but I will get over it.

People are cowards.
By not saying anything it leaves you perplexed thinking maybe I did or said something wrong, should I apologize, maybe he is just busy, maybe he's waiting for me to initiate etc.,

To me silence is the answer that many of us battle with,

the only reason we "stress" over a chick is the emotional connection, its like hopping on tinder there ar etons of beautiful women you swipe and dont even think of that brehette again if she doesnt swipe back because no connection is formed.

when you sit and you pine and get jealous, frustrated, disappointed, angry etc. its all because of the emotional connection the high that your missing

unless im fully committed and we are exclusive i m stopping having any of a emotional connection

All truths there. But it's easier said than done regarding just stopping an emotional connection. Only way is if you never allow yourself to have a big connection to start with. But then you basically short selling yourself in every future relationships because you're afraid to get burnt. I don't want to live like that either. I can see why other people's heart turn cold though.

I said If I'm not exclusive or committed

Of course in a exclusive committed relationship I'll have a emotional connection , and yes there is always the risk it may fail or whatever but if you been through it once you can do it again.

To me silence is the answer that many of us battle with,

Exactly. People would rather just 'disappear' and 'fade out' than say what it is a lot of the time, plus they want to keep their options open if whatever they are doing doesn't plan out... They feel like they can return back to the person they keep waiting.

Ultimately, it's sort of like a job. People get a lot braver if they have a bunch in savings and they have another job lined up. They'll be a lot more likely to take 'liberties' at their current job. When someone feels like they 'have you on the team', they'll put you in a back-up role and give you just enough to keep you hanging on while exploring new options.

The reality of the matter is NO ONE is that busy in this day and age with the plethora of communication options we have. If someone isn't communicating with you very often, they simply didn't feel like it... whether it be they have another option they are exploring, or they really aren't feeling you like that. A lot of times, these people want to keep you around as a safety net so they don't have to be alone if the other person they are talking to doesn't pan out.

What is required is emotional discipline. If you and another person are making serious efforts to talk and they pull that disappearing act, you simply have to tell them that you're moving on and then STAND on it instead of letting them pop back up like what normally happens. If you don't stand for anything, you won't ever get your respect. If someone sees they can pop in and out on you, that's exactly what they are going to do.

Arghh they are stuck in my head from the moment I wake up right until I go to sleep, and even then sometimes they have the nerve to even enter in my dream. I go from loving to hating, happiness to anger, my appetite has diminished, my confidence is in the sewer and I’ll never ever experience love or anyone attracted to me ever again.



I constantly check my phone why won’t they call? Why won’t they text, I’ve been replaced/forgotten I can’t believe it. And to make things worse I just can’t stop checking their Facebook, looking at their photos…wow they have never looked so good, reading their tweets, googling their name hoping for even a sliver of information about them even though all of this sets me back time and time again. When oh when will I be “normal” and happy again?



The good news is that you won’t always feel this way because time does heal. Time that precious beautiful commodity will one day bring you back to the enclave of indifference. Many prisoners instead of doing nothing but serving out their sentence, will take advantage of courses while locked up and leave with new found skills and education; And on the other side in the midst of heartbreak you are somewhat a prisoner of your own mind/emotions, you can sit around and serve out sentence or you can use this opportunity to work on yourself.



The good news part two is that eventually whatever you are holding onto, jealously, bitterness, an emotional connection or even exceptional memories you shared with that person will fade in due time. More happy moments of you and what life has to offer will take over while the sad ones become smaller and smaller, memories will pop up but in shorter spurts and you’ll have a meh attitude as your mind shifts into more important things. The urges to check up on them will fade away, acceptance and removal of the rose coloured glasses will make you think clearly and logical as you look at your former self and just laugh at how you were in the gutter.



The good news part three is that you will reach the point of realizing that they were not that special. Your life was fine all those years without them and will be fine again in due time without them. They were imperfect humans with faults and do not deserve to be put on a pedestal in your mind.



To put it bluntly the scales tipped, and you became less valuable to them than you were worth at one point – I call this a underwater relationship (underwater mortgage - Underwater mortgages are mortgage arrangements that effectively leave the owner with more debt on the property than the current market). While that’s not to say that you did something wrong to yield things that way, the situation is that when someone truly values you enough, they will make an effort to work out issues whatever they may be. They want issues to be worked out and they will compromise and communicate. Always remember if an individual truly cares, trust me they will meet you halfway.





However when someone is finished with you, they desire things to break down, they intend to blame you for inconsequential things, however it all comes down to not perceiving you of value.



As time goes on your old self will return but in a much better form, time is the great equalizer and soon you will the freedom of being yourself again.

When it comes down to it, we can blame the other party, or we can accept accountability and blame ourselves. True, they are acting in a garbage fashion, but as humans, we have self-control, so it's up to us to choose a proper reaction to someone who decides to put us on the backburner. The simple response is to cut our ties and to move on.

It's often hard because of the air of ambiguity, meaning in the midst of uncertainty, we often try to create an optimistic scenario. We WANT to believe they are truly busy because we like them, and maybe if we do this or that action, that they will return our affections down the line. I find that it hardly EVER works like that.

The reality is, people that aren't feeling you much make very little effort to stay in contact with you. You simply have to blast past that ambiguity and make a decision to keep it pushing with people that waste your time. It's like you offer someone a job and they don't bother showing up. Do you think the employer will sit around wondering too much what they are doing? Nah, the employer will move on. People that really want something, they'll find a way to make time for it.

You care way too much about this ex of yours. You still in love with that chick and can't/won't admit it.
I admitted I still have some feelings for her a while ago on here. EIther way since the day before yesterday I've cut contact with her since I wasn't really trying to be that nikka standing around hoping she'd leave her bf and fukk with me. What has helped me tremendously is me working now. I work 8-5 so I'm busy most of the time. I unfortunately saw her today but I just walked past her and didn't say nothing.
